To Drax’s ecstatic delight, Chapter 13 finds the Guardians face-to-face with the legendary dragon Fin Fang Foom, where you will eventually face a grueling battle against this giant beast. While Foom is an intimidating presence with a health bar that depletesextremely slowly, this battle can be won by staying patient and using your team’s abilities to the fullest.
The first order of business:you must break Foom’s Ice Armor beforeyou can chip away at his HP.Regular attacks will affect the armor, but use the newly acquiredFire Shotfrom your element gunsfor the most damage on it.Stay on your toes—Foom’s attacks will cover a large area, but they are quite slow. Make use of the full battle arena and keep your distance when you see him begin an attack.
It doesn’t seem to matter in which order you destroy the armor—focus your attacks and Fire Shots onone piece at a time(chest, head, and two legs). You’ll know a piece of armor is about to breakwhen they crack—hit it a few more times, and it will crumble. Repeat this process until all of the pieces have been destroyed, finally giving you the chance to start widdling down his health bar.
After you break all the armor pieces, Foom will unleash an energy blast to the sky, breaking up giant chunks of ice that begin torain lethal shardsacross the battlefield. Keep dodging, and eventually, you’ll notice agiant shardin the ice that Drax and Groot will automatically work on bringing down. Once they succeed,look for a prompt on Foom. If you hit it, you will stun him, allowing Drax to hurl the giant shard into Foom’s chest,which instantly fills the stagger bar.
