Yormandi Boss Fight - Complete Guide

🧭 Getting There

• The Yormandi fight takes place beneath the Onyx Facility (Site B) in a new excavation zone under the main building.

• There is no official mission/contract yet — you must navigate manually to reach it.

• The arena is sealed once entered; you can’t re-enter if downed or if the airlock cycles.

⚙️ Preparation & Load-Out

• Recommended gear:

  • FS9 rifle with plenty of ammo

  • P6-LR or equivalent secondary

  • Healing gear — you’ll need to heal immediately after taking damage

• Works best as a duo; solo is possible but riskier.

• Optional: Plasma battery dispenser near the entrance lets you prep energy cells before pulling the lever — but the creator says it’s “too much faffing about.”

🚨 Arena Activation

1. Drop to the lever on the left side of the airlock.

2. Pull the lever — this locks the arena and summons the Yormandi (“Sparky”).

3. The creature emerges from one of three pools.

🧩 Weak Spots & Damage Phases

• The Yormandi has eight glowing weak spots along its body.

• You’ll know you’re hitting one when you hear a “squelching noise” and see splashing visuals.

• It also has a temporary weak point inside the mouth during its spit attack — shooting inside counts as a “quasi weak spot.”

⚔️ Attack Patterns

🔫 Combat Strategy

1. Engage from cover, but beware — many formerly safe spots now have invisible collision zones that prevent hiding.

2. Focus fire on head weak spots whenever possible.

3. Heal instantly after taking damage; waiting can result in being one-shot by follow-up attacks.

4. Maintain constant movement and reposition frequently.

🪱 Phase 2 — Twin Worms

• After dealing significant damage to the first Yormandi, a second one spawns.

• Plasma attack intensity increases:

  • More frequent beams

  • Stronger AoE blasts

• Continue focusing on head weak points and mouth shots during spit attacks.

• Dodging tip: go prone to evade the AoE wave completely.

💀 Death & Reset Rules

• If you’re downed, you cannot re-enter — the airlock seals.

• After killing both worms, the reset mechanic works properly (arena reopens after completion).

• Beware of amber flashing lights — that’s the “kill wave” which will wipe the area (and destroy loot).

💰 Rewards

• When both are dead, they’ll flop their heads onto the path.

• You can extract the tongue and eyes from each corpse.

• These are used for trading with Wikelo, currently the only vendor selling binoculars in this build.

🧠 Summary of Key Tactics

1. Prep ammo → pull lever → fight begins.

2. Hit glowing weak points — sound and splash confirm damage.

3. During spit attack → shoot into mouth.

4. Go prone to avoid AoE.

5. Heal fast and keep moving.

6. Expect two worms total; the second increases plasma intensity.

7. Extract tongues and eyes post-fight.

8. Exit before amber lights signal the kill wave.
