How to beat Artaria in Metroid Dread?

If you're wondering how to beat Artaria in Metroid Dread, the first thing you have to do is head to the Artaria region, where the confrontation will take place in several parts.

The first thing you have to do is to detect the weak points of this boss, which you can do if you pay attention to its attack patterns and movements until you determine its weak points in each level.

During the first stage, Corpius will attack you with his tail and to dodge it you will have to jump over it. He will try to throw acid balls at you, which you will have to try to dodge.

In this first part and taking into account his attacks, his weak point and the one you have to attack is his head, using charged rays and missiles.


It will reach a point where it will take enough damage and activate its invisibility cloak while continuing to attack.

At this point, its weak point will be the edge of its tail, which will have a round yellow spot, on which you will have to attack it using Power Beam when it launches its tail to attack you. The color of the bright spot on its tail will change and become redder as it takes damage.

Continue attacking its tail until the boss can be seen again and at this point you will have to slide down its legs.

In the next phase he will throw acid at you and you will have to jump on the spider magnet panel in order to avoid him. In this phase his weak point will be his mouth, so you will have to attack with missiles to further weaken him.

After weakening him enough, Corpius will be invisible again, and you will have to repeat the previous process until he becomes visible again.

You will know that he is about to die because his behavior will become more hostile, so you can't let your guard down and keep attacking his weak points until you finish him off and manage to get his phantom cloak.
