Avogadro
Jump to navigation
Jump to search
Avogadro (aka Mole Boss or Mole) is a boss that appears in the Forest, and is usually the first boss the player encounters.
Avogadro will hide behind his tree, occasionally digging to the space in front of the player to deal damage (summoning a Euphorbia when he leaves his old spot) - which can make the fight harder if the player is not properly prepared.
Behavior
- Avogadro will hide behind his tree for at least 3 turns before burrowing right next to the player and attacking for 10 damage, retreat behind the tree, then spawn a Euphorbia.
- 1 turn after the plant in front of the player dies, Avogadro will burrow back to the player.
- Defeating Avogadro will cause the encounter to be won, even if other enemies remain.
- Bombs will appear (or "grow") in the leaves of the tree shape in the center of the board whenever Avogadro moves back behind his tree.
Immunities
- Blind (Avogadro and tree only)
Strategies
Strategy
This section is a Strategy Guide and is written from the subjective view of the playerbase. If you think this section is inaccurate, feel free to update it.
- Piercing orbs and targeting orbs are invaluable in this fight since they can bypass both the spawned minions and the high-health tree
- Bringing a Doctorb (or two) can help offset the damage it deals, as the fight can take a dozen turns to complete if ill-prepared
- Likewise, a Swoltorb can help increase the damage dealt, especially if piercing orbs are brought to the fight.
- The fact that the pegboard generates bombs every couple of turns can be taken advantage of with bomb relics.
- Refrain from hitting Avogadro with any bramble effects when he's in front of you, as being stuck there will cause him to attack you every turn.
- When choosing what orbs to discard, keep in mind when Avogadro attacks as to attack the mole with your good orbs and not miss the opportunity to attack whilst reloading.

Trivia
- The tree in the middle of the enemy area heavily resembles the one in the Strange Tree event
- His immunity to Blind is likely because of the near-blindness of the real-world animal, which can navigate in near-zero light.
- According to the developers, the mole's name is "Avogadro"; and his health is derived from Avogadro's Constant.
- This is also a reference to the "mole" SI unit and its association with Avogadro's Constant.
