Walkthrough[edit]

  • Time to take on the Hive Mind Necromorph.
  • To begin, fire at the Yellow Growths around its mouth.
  • After you destroy ~3 of them, it will reel back.
  • It starts to launch growths at Isaac.
  • You can use Kinesis to grab and throw them back at it (?)
  • Steadily pick away the growths around the Hive Mind's Mouth.
  • Destroying the growths will move you to the second phase.
  • You now have a number of Necromorphs to deal with: Slashers, and Exploders.
  • Destroy them as they emerge.
  • Just keep killing the Necromorphs until the Hive Mind starts swinging in its tentacles.
  • You need to strafe the Hive Mind, moving from one edge of the arena to the other.
  • After this, wait until the Hive Mind expands itself.
  • This will expose its next weak point, a collection of Yellow Growths will appear in the middle of its body.
  • Destroy a growth and the Hive Mind will reel back, scream, and then spray a line of Acid.
  • It will likely slam down some of its tentacles after that.
  • Stay on the move, steadily going from left to right to avoid the attacks.
  • Eventually its chest will open again.
  • Repeat this as needed to hurt the Hive Mind in this phase.
  • Once you've destroyed 3 of the Growths, it changes its pattern a bit.
  • The Hive Mind will do 3 Acid Sprays, making it a lot harder to avoid them, but they don't linger nearly as long.
  • The first 2 Acid sprays only linger a few seconds while the third lingers for a long time.
  • Try to linger on the right-hand side of the arena so they are next to each other and giving you the best area to move around.
  • Steadily move to the left as the Hive Mind sprays.
  • Watch out for it rearing back, since that is normally followed by a Tentacle Slam.
  • Destroying all of the Growths will bring you into the final stand.
  • The Hive Mind will grab Isaac by his leg.
  • You now need to destroy the growth in its mouth while suspended.
