I hope you’re not arachnophobic
Ori And The Will Of The Wisps has a fair number of boss fights, but this one is that shade creepier than most. This giant spider is Mora and she does all the things giant spiders like to do, but it also likes to make things very dark. She is utterly terrifying to fight if you’re not prepared, so this guide will go through all the steps needed to beat Mora.

Mora boss first phase
This first phase has a mixture of melee attacks and projectiles that are surprisingly hard to avoid. Thankfully there is an energy crystal that regenerates after a certain amount of time.
As long as you’re managing the smaller spiders, avoiding the acid pools, and bashing her head with attacks, you should get her down to half health. The good news is the game auto-saves at this point. The bad news is you now need to run.
How to complete the chase phase
At around half health, Mora will stumble into the background and yell, prompting two orange lanterns to drop to within your reach.This phase is the reason why we have the Sticky ability equipped, because there’s a climb up a log that’s a little tricky if you don’t have Sticky equipped. Here are the steps you need to take to escape Mora’s mandibles.
Mora boss second phase
After the chance sequence, you’ll get a second auto-save so you don’t need to run away again. The bad news is that this will be the last auto-save, but the good news is that Mora’s attacks are largely the same as the ones from the previous phase.
As for her attacks in this phase, she does thankfully lose the acid jet stream, but she gets two very powerful ones. There are two orange lanterns here, making avoiding some attacks harder to avoid than before.
At around a quarter of her health, Mora will scream once more, causing intense darkness.Use the light skill to avoid being instantly killed.You’ll need to top up your energy to keep this skill active, so break the energy crystal that restores itself after around 20 seconds of being destroyed. Don’t use any skills other than this if you’re at low energy, because once you run out, you’ll likely die not long afterwards. She gains no additional attacks here, so just keep at it until you win.
