Bomb King’s attacks aren’t too complicated and can be dealt with easily if you can figure them out. He throws out special Coronation attacks that consist of huge but slow fireballs. These attacks can be easily dodged by just running away from them.
These Coronation attacks start multiplying when the King is low on HP. It also sets fire to the ground for a few seconds, so make sure not to walk into it.
King Justice is the Bomb King’s strongest move as it summons a bunch of small Bomb enemies. Stay clear of these Bombs and do not attack them, as they will automatically self-destruct after a while. Just make sure to be out of their range when they blow up.
If you are planning to take on these small Bombs, then having Flames of Rebirth as an Eikonic ability is recommended.
