Spawn Behavior

The Gegenees will begin spawning on Round 15, however one will spawn when picking up the Golden Bridle and when shooting down the bird cage within the Omphalos.

Combat Strategy

The Gegenees have a lot of health and can be extremely difficult to deal with without the right equipment and strategy. The Apollo's Will shield spears can do massive damage to the Gegenees' weak point while also preventing damage from the Gegenees' spear throws, making it a must-have. Special Weapons, any of the four Gauntlets, and the Hellion Salvo are also very effective against the Gegenees.
