Preparation

Glad to see you're ready to take this challenge on. So before we continue we must do the most vital step: prepare.

Here's what you're gonna need.

1. Wood armor yes that's right wood armor (shadewood helmet, ebonwood breasteplate, and rich mahogany greaves are best). It has a hidden ability that reduces damage from your oppenent by 25%
2. Daedalus Stormbow. This little guy is gonna be good for attacking the boss because it'll be the only thing that can match its speed.
3. Piranha skull. Gives 550 defense and gives the titanium armor effect with half the cooldown.
4. Jesus's toaster. You're gonna need to borrow it from Jesus or bad times will happen. Plug this bad boy into your computer to not only produce toast to keep you fed during this fed, but also give your character a dodge roll to help with survival.
5. Jason Bourne's Ph.D in kick butt. Now you'll get those good old skills to cursh the boss.
6. Humor. Pretty gosh darn vital.

How to Summon

Next step young padawan is to summon the Start Menu to begin the battle.

Here are the steps you need to take:

1. Start the game. Double click at a click rate of 0.35 seconds to properly open the game.
2. Clench your buttcheeks. Clench them, clench them harder than ever thought before. This is to help make sure a. you don't have to use the toilet and b. help prep your mind for this complecated fight.
3. Take a sip of water. Just for that good old hydration, don't wanna die of dehydration now do we?
4. Click 3000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times in volume settings.
5. Wait 4 minutes and then walk around in circles for 53.2 seconds.
6. Enter your world.

The battle will begin in 3 minutes so make sure you're all prepared.
