How To Beat The Hanged Man In The First Descendant

The Hanged Man is a boss in the Void Intercept Battles in developers Nexon’s epic third-person-shooter game on Steam. Players want to know how to beat the Hanged Man in The First Descendant because it is not as simple as one might think. Similar to boss battles in games like Elden Ring, you need to know what you’re up against and have a plan. You have to have the right modules, learn how to take away the red cube, keep your attacks focused, and use a powerful weapon to maximize the few opportunities you get.

Here’s a detailed guide on how to beat the Hanged Man, its weaknesses, and its rewards.

How to Beat the Hanged Man in The First Descendant

Equip Electric Resistance Modules

The Hanged Man uses electric attacks, so it’s important to equip modules that resist electricity. These modules will help reduce the damage you take from its wide-range attacks, making it easier to survive the battle.

Grab the Cube and Run Away

As you attack the Hanged Man, a red gauge below it will start to fill up. When this gauge is full, the Hanged Man will unleash an unavoidable attack that can instantly kill you. To prevent this, designate a team member to pick up a red cube and run around with it before the gauge fills up.

The player who picks up the red cube should focus on running and keeping a distance from the rest of the team. This allows the other teammates to continue attacking the Hanged Man without worrying about getting hurt.

Focus on Attacking the Mouth

If you aren’t the player with the cube, focus on attacking the Hanged Man’s mouth. You can only attack this area when the Hanged Man is spitting out a beam of light, so watch for this opportunity and be ready to strike.

Return the Cube to Cancel Invincibility

When the Hanged Man’s mouth has taken enough damage, the player holding the red cube should return it to its original place. This will disable the Hanged Man’s invincibility, allowing your team to deal more damage.

Prioritize Destroying the KingFishers

When the Dead Bride calls in KingFishers, take them out immediately. If ignored, they will attack you and your team. Destroying KingFishers will drop bullets and recovery items crucial for sustaining your attack on the Hanged Man.

Equip the Tamer

The Tamer is a rare machine gun with excellent damage, a fast rate of fire, and a high magazine capacity. This makes it one of the best DPS weapons for quickly defeating the Hanged Man.
