![]() Knowing all of that (and keeping it all in your head at once), this fight is deceptively easy. When the pencils float out and start glowing and spinning, you’re ready to finish the fight with a 1,000-Fold Arms Magic Circle attack from the front. When you take down its health enough, it’ll attempt a Rainbow Roll attack. ![]() Those three facts together mean that you should be trying to attack with your hammer from behind when there are missiles and with your boots from the third or fourth ring in the front (or sides) when there aren’t.Importantly, though, this attack can only hit you when you’re on the innermost two rings. When there are no missiles inside, the attack to watch out for is the Snap Shut attack.(On a related note, you can attack with a hammer from behind, but it won’t do much damage without missiles inside.) When there are no missiles inside the box, Colored Pencils is vulnerable to boot attacks from the front or sides.You can’t use boot attacks on the lid side - Mario can’t jump high enough - but if you attack from the back with your hammer, it’ll close the lid and Colored Pencils will damage itself with its own missiles.However, the targeted locations don’t spin - the rings spin beneath the targets - so they’re easy enough to avoid. They’ll be marked with crosshairs and you’ll get hit immediately if you step on one. Throughout the fight (starting with the first turn), there will be several ring segments targeted by the Missile Maestro’s missiles.This boss fight is quite a bit different from the Earth Vellumental you faced previously, so don’t operate under the assumption that the same rules apply.
