Shadow of the Colossus - 16 - Malus

Real Name: Grand Gigas

Form: Sorceror

Temperament: Aggressive

Attacks: Concussive blasts

Size: 195ft/60m tall



About

Malus is the last of the sixteen Colossi that Wander must defeat. He doesn't move his body, but throws homing projectiles.

 

Location

Head south and go east of where the sword is pointing around the same direction as Kuromori. Take a right when the path forks and it will lead you to the southern plains. Your sword now points to a mountain in the distance with a seal door. You have to shine all eight beams of light onto the door to unlocki it. Keep making your way through past a bridge and climb a ridged wall. When you get to the top the battle will begin.

 

Defeat

Make your way through the tunnels and be sure to hide behind the pillars and artifacts when you can to get as close to Malus as possible. When you get close enough he'll stop attacking, then begin to climb up his body. The first weakpoint is on it's back, after attacking, Malus will try to grab you which gives you the oppurtunity to jump on his hand. Stab the weakpoint on it's upper left arm which brings his right hand over allowing you to jump onto it. Stab his right hand as quick as possible giving you more time to shoot his left shoulder, which will cause him to reach for the shot with his right hand and finally getting you to the weak point on his head. Keep stabbing his head to defeat the final Colossi. On Hard mode it just takes more stabs.
