Painter Boss || Castle Crashers

The Painter is the first of the four final Bosses. Known to be one of the more bizarre enemies, very little is known about him other than that he works for the Evil Wizard. He is a tall humanoid figure wearing overalls smeared with paint, a toolbelt, gloves, a cap, and a toolbox for a head.

Battle Overview For the first phase, the Painter will drop down from an elevator, walk over to his canvas, create a painting, and then walk back to the elevator and retreat back up. The painting(s) must be killed before the Painter will drop back down again. As the Painter's health lowers, the amount of paintings he creates per cycle will increase, to a max of 3 at once.

After the Painter's health goes below 40%, the second phase will start next time he steps off the elevator. The Painter will run in random directions, changing direction at random intervals. Every time the Painter changes direction, a painting is summoned from a random side of the screen, which runs in one direction and have only 1 health.

On death, all paintings will explode. After saying "It must have been something I ate...", the Painter will spit out 16 fruit (Health Potions on Insane Mode if the player is missing any) before a Boss Chest drops onto him. If the Unicorn Painting is alive when the Painter dies, it will drop the Unicorn Horn weapon. Afterwards, the player can go to the next room to destroy a giant purple crystal, which will unlock the next boss.

Paintings The Painter, instead of attacking the player directly, paints various dangerous cartoonish creatures on his painting frame. Every painting will slowly approach the closest player, and on contact will explode, dealing massive damage.

Paintings The Painter, instead of attacking the player directly, paints various dangerous cartoonish creatures on his painting frame. Every painting will slowly approach the closest player, and on contact will explode, dealing massive damage. Here are all the paintings. A painting of a hot pink colored unicorn. A painting of a carrot with a clock on it. A painting of a Clown. A painting of a Red square shaped wonky devil looking thing. A painting of a Green creature that runs around on two legs with sharp teeth. A painting of a Cat that is freakishly skinny and walks on both legs creepily. A painting of a blocky shaped angry emoticon faced person that shakes around a lot. A painting of a wonkily drawn octopus head with 3 tentacles and a angry look. A painting of a Angry elephant. A painting of a snail, but instead of a snail, it's a nose that sniffs around and flops around. A painting of a pair of scissors on side is navy blue, and the other side is turquoise.

Tips The Painter is the best method for grinding large amounts of gold, if the player has access to the level 50 drill combo, or is playing as Fencer/Industrialist. On average, the Painter drops 258.63 gold from the boss chest. BiPolar Bear is useful for the second phase, as it will automatically kill the spawned paintings, as they all have 1 health. On Insane Mode, using a potion right before the Painter starts spitting out food is recommended, as the lost potion is immediately regained.
