The Gorgun is a boss found in the Gungeon Proper. She is the version of Medusa that got done with swords and shields and found out using SMGs was a better choice.
Behavior
- Creates a semi-transparent wave that petrifies the player, preventing the player from firing for a time if hit by it while facing her.
- Dives underwater, charging at the player and leaving a trail of poison in her wake.
- Sprays both her guns from her sides simultaneously, starting above her and ending below her. This attack always occurs twice in a row.
- Spews rings of bullets in all directions with small openings. These openings begin to close as they travel outwards.
- Sprays volleys of bullets in all directions, with alternating openings.
Notes
- Some active items, like the Bomb, will disappear under the water when used.
- This also applies to any item that leaves pools or creep on the ground, since her arena is covered in water, it overrides any ground area effect put on it. This includes, but is not limited to: Ice Bomb, Molotov and Poison Vial.
Tips
- If you can keep Gorgun right against a wall, her bullet spam becomes much easier to manage as long as you stick to the wall at a distance as well.
- A good way to bring her to the wall is to wait until she submerges, where she will follow you around. Stay close to the wall and she will emerge close to it, limiting her wide range.
- The transparent wave can be avoided by rolling through it or facing the other way.
Trivia
- Her name, Gorgun, is a reference to the Gorgons, monsters from the ancient Greek mythical literature, which included three sisters, who had their hair made out of living creatures.
- The Medusa, the one sister being portrayed here, was the only mortal of the three.
- In her description, the name Medusa is also referenced, Meduzi is a match-up of the words Medusa and Uzi, the guns she holds in hands.
- Of course, her ability to turn gungeoneers into stone references her power from the Greek mythology, which is turning anyone that looks directly at her in the eyes into stone.
