Flukemarm

Behaviour and Tactics
Flukemarm has the following singular attack: An optional boss that floats in the center of the massive room. Drops the Flukenest charm when defeated.
 * Spawn: flukemarm will spit out two Flukefeys from either of it's orifices telegraphed by bile spewing out of the selected ones.

The boss itself does not attack but spawns enemies that are really fast and frantic and can overwhelm the Knight.

An "offensive" tactic requires upgrading the Nail enough (Nail Upgrade 3 or Higher) to kill Flukefeys in one hit or using Fragile Strength / Unbreakable Strength. Focus on killing the Flukefeys as quickly as possible and hit the Flukemarm between spawns.

Another "offensive" tactic is to gain SOUL from the Flukefeys, and then using Vengeful Spirit or Shade Soul to deal damage to Flukemarm continuously.

A "defensive" tactic involves using Quick Focus and Stalwart Shell to buy time, Soul Catcher and Grubsong to generate enough SOUL to heal, and Thorns of Agony to help kill the Flukefeys and occasionally damage the Flukemarm itself if the player is close enough to it.

Using Desolate Dive/Descending Dark is effective as the Spell gives enough invincibility to repeatedly use the spell without taking damage.

The most important thing to avoid in this fight is falling into the water. Since the player cannot attack while swimming, they will be left completely defenseless.

An especially useful way to prepare for the fight is to break the Fluke Larva found in and around the entrance to the boss chamber as they gift small amounts of SOUL to the player when destroyed.

Trivia

 * Flukemarm used to only use the ambient theme for the Royal Waterways, it has since been changed to the action theme.
