How do I defeat Gonarch?
1 of 6: Gonarch has numerous attacks.
2 of 6: First, she will give birth to small headcrabs. They can usually be ignored as long as you are moving.
3 of 6: Secondly, she spits a powerful acid at you. This should not be ignored, but avoided. A direct hit will kill you.
4 of 6: Third, she may charge you and attack with her sharp feet. This should also be avoided.
5 of 6: To attack Gonarch, you should attack the sac that hangs down the center of her. This is her weak point.
6 of 6: To defeat Gonarch, you have to battle her in three different stages.
