Amanita General



The Amanita General is the leader of the Amanita race, and the boss of Chapter 5. He is an unusually large Amanita who resides in his throne room in the Inner Sanctum. It is believed that the Generals massive size was caused by tampering with the meteorites.

Strategy
When you first enter the General's throne room, he will demand you leave him alone. If you continue to approach him, he will warn you a second time. If you continue to approach his throne, the General will instantly kill you within a single strike. In order to be able to defeat him, you must first release the Cactos and his arms from the three prison cells and take him to the General. When you do so, they will both begin to fight and several lesser Amanita warriors will enter the room to battle you. After you defeat these Amanitas, the General himself will begin to chase you. You can't fight back, so just keep out of his way until the Cactos grabs him again. More Amanitas will show up. After you kill them, the General will smash his way through a wall into a room surrounded by a moat of lava. Whilst the Cactos keeps him busy, you must leap across platforms killing scorpions that block your way. You will find two plants that must be activated by Sporekinesis. After you do this, a massive skeletal fist will appear above the General, which you can then force down on him. The fist strikes the General, causing him to be weakened. Cactos sees his chance to finally defeat his captor for good and sacrifices himself by tackling the massive mushroom into the lava that surrounds the room.
