The Dragon Prince is the sixth boss fight in Ball X Pit, which you will face at the end of the Smoldering Depths level. There are two mini-bosses you will encounter during the two checkpoint stages, after which you will face the Dragon Prince at the end. Once you defeat the boss, you will clear the stage and unlock a gear to advance to the next level.

In this article, we will look at how to defeat the Dragon Prince Boss in Ball X Pit.

How To Defeat the Dragon Prince Boss in Ball X Pit

The Dragon Prince may just be one of the easiest boss fights to complete in Ball X Pit. This boss uses a single attack pattern with slight variations in frequency and quantity.

Dodge the Fireballs

The main attack this boss uses is its fireball. The pacing of the attack is slow, giving you enough time to move around the area. You do not need to stay at the back to counter this attack, as there is only one source for each fireball, its mouth.

Depending on where you move your character, the next fireball that leaves its mouth will be directed toward your current position. The best way to counter this is by staying in one spot until the first fireball gets close, then moving away. By that time, most of the fireballs will have been launched, leaving fewer to avoid.

Clear the Mini-enemies

While the boss itself is simple to take down, the group of mini-enemies on the sides poses the real threat. Their flow is constant, and if ignored, they will quickly close in on you. The key is to alternate your attacks and prevent too many mini-enemies from getting past the boss. However, if you are confident that you can defeat the boss before the mini-enemies reach your side, go all out.

Once you defeat the boss, you will unlock a gear that grants access to the next stage, the Heavenly Gates. If you would like to learn about the Black Hole in Ball X Pit, you can refer to the article below.
