The developers of the game have made sure to give you a spine-tingling moment when you encounter the Democrawler. The colossal beast looks fearsome and malformed at the same time. The Democrawler’s appearance will freak out a lot of players due to its disturbing anatomy. Comprised of mangled bodies this creepy monster is a fearsome foe that can end your life at any moment.

The Eye of the Hurricane mission starts after defeating Karakuri and Belial. During the first stage of the fight the Democrawler will charge towards you with its deadly claws. Watch out for the glowing yellow light when it attacks and parry the attack promptly. Along with the claw attacks, the Democrawler is capable of releasing deadly shockwaves.

While releasing a shockwave it will jump back, don’t charge towards it. Instead, wait for the shockwave to be released and avoid it by jumping. As the fight gets more intense the Democrawler will shoot projectiles towards you which has to be dodged on time to avoid getting injured.

The Democrawler will summon beams of light which can be deadly if you get struck by them. Use your dodge moves to avoid these beams of light. Watch out for all these variations of attacks as they will happen in quick succession. Keep on attacking the Democrawler while successfully evading its attacks.

The Democrawler will become more aggressive once its health drops below 50%. A huge ring will start glowing over its head and it will launch a series of projectiles towards you. Stay on the tip of your toes to dodge these projectiles before they strike you. While dodging the shockwaves, stay alert and agile since the Democrawler is capable of releasing two waves at times. The creature will try to disturb your flow of attacks by teleporting from one position to the other. However, if you keep on attacking while keeping in mind the tips provided above, the Democrawler will reach its breaking point.
