Anachronox Hints
How do I kill the Stone Sentinel?
1 of 6: There's really no huge trick here -- this boss isn't immune to any of your attacks or anything like that. As far as you're concerned, the biggest difference is that you have to stay on one of the six hexagonal tiles on the ring surrounding the Sentinel.
2 of 6: However, his attack is a bit unusual.
3 of 6: Notice that you first get a bit of warning before he attacks you.
4 of 6: He will turn to a tile before pounding on it -- this gives you time to move to an adjacent tile before you get hit. He'll still attack that tile, even if you aren't still standing on it, and even if you weren't standing on it in the first place.
5 of 6: The tiles will crack and eventually sink after the sentinel hits them enough times. Once the tile sinks, you can no longer move to it. So if the battle lasts that long, you want to make sure that you avoid getting trapped in between two sunken tiles.
6 of 6: Beyond that, just use whatever attacks you have on the Sentinel. On normal difficulty, he appears to have approximately 5000 HP.
