Bowser, Rawk Hawk and Prince Mushin Paper Mario The Thousand-Year Door
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT The Nintendo Switch remake of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door includes a mixture of old and new boss battles, and probably has new and returning players alike wondering which are the hardest to defeat. Since the original Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door came out 20 years ago for the GameCube, many players may likely be experiencing the game for the first time on the Switch.
During the second fight with Doopliss in Chapter 8, the boss will be able to change into any of Mario’s companions and use any of their special attacks. Because knowing the timing of a move is so important for defending it in Paper Mario, Doopliss’ many different attacks make him one of the harder enemies to defend. Players don’t just need to figure out the timing of a few moves, but instead, they have to remember the timing for the moves of every character Doopliss shifts into.
What makes Smorg even more dangerous is its pincer attack, which can deal 10 damage to both Mario and his companion. This is a significant amount of damage, as Mario might only have around 45 HP at this point and his companions even less. The best way to approach Smorg is to use attacks like Vivien’s Fiery Jinx, which will hit every tentacle at once, allowing the player to start dealing damage quicker and avoid too many powerful pincer attacks.
When Macho Grubba raises his evasion, he can be difficult for any character to hit, which combined with his already high HP, makes this fight a bit of a slog. Aside from this, Grodus will also continuously summon Grodus Xs which protect him if they are not destroyed. Players will have to use attacks that hit multiple targets to take out the Xs and damage Grodus at the same time. On top of everything else, players will be forced to do a second boss battle immediately after fighting Grodus. This means they will have to deal with this boss while making sure they are saving resources for the following fight, making it that much more challenging.
