In Mario + Rabbids: Sparks of Hope, you'll engage in a lot of combat, but the boss encounters can be exceptionally challenging. In fact, if you don't know how to handle it, the first boss will bulldoze you. You must kill the Giant Wildclaw in order to open the Temple Catacombs on Beacon Beach. This presents a big problem because, by this time in the game, you most likely won't have any prior experience with even an ordinary Wildclaw. Here is how to approach it.
How to defeat the Giant Wildclaw
The most crucial rule is to take it slow and spread it out; the Giant Wildclaw creeps toward the character who hits it every time. Yes, it will attack you if it is close enough to do so; it will also do so outside of its turn. In this battle, make frequent use of Rabbid Peach's mending, especially if you make a mistake and suffer a significant hit. The shielding powers of Peach can also save your life.
In general, you should only shoot the boss if you are certain that it cannot reach you, as shown in the screenshot above. You should also use caution when using Mario or Luigi's Hero Sight because this reflex shot also allows the Giant Wildclaw to approach. As the sword-wielding Edge enters just before the conflict begins, this is the first combat where you'll get to use three characters. Be cautious when employing that move as well, because she possesses a countermove.
Don't even bother using the fire spark you now have, on top of that. Since the boss is immune to fire attacks, you'll merely be encouraging it without actually doing any harm. Watch out for the reflecting Spark as well; its retaliation enables the boss to go on once more. At this stage, focus on Edge's defensive spark and the turbocharging spark in your inventory.
You'll be better able to deal with portals and any additional adversaries that emerge during combat if you maintain your dispersed posture. As long as you're careful not to let it get too close, it's also a good idea to take care of the minions before concentrating on the boss. Keep in mind that you can heal, regroup, and spread out your party all in the same turn. The Giant Wildclaw is the game's initial obstacle, although with the appropriate approach, it may be easily overcome. You'll succeed if you don't pull the trigger too quickly. You can use this tactic to defeat regular-sized Wildclaws in upcoming encounters as well.
