Strategy[edit]

  • It is advisable to roll away and not into Giant Tick's close range attacks, as it will always follow up with a second strike, however, these attacks can be parried.
  • When leaping, the Giant Tick can be parried, however it is advisable not to.
  • Using King's Scepter, you can repeatedly bounce on their front without touching the ground to easily kill it.
