Kabocha Drops
How to Beat Kabocha
Phase overview
Ranged or Magick build strongly recommended. Core mechanic: bell glow = stop all attacks immediately.
~2 phases
⭐ High Farm Priority
Best early Agari rotation stop — accessible after Waste Bear. Drops Marrow's Bane Fragment and key materials.
Tips
- Bell rings + green glow: stop attacking, strafe sideways. Resume when glow fades.
- Leap slam: dodge sideways not backwards — backward dodge still gets clipped
- Ranged weapons exploit Kabocha's melee parry weakness
- Agari version respawns 30 min after kill
Recommended pacts
Recommended stats
Ranged or Magick; Ode Tempest or Sirin for bell-phase safety. Mid-game after Waste Bear.
