Can Creeper

Can Creeper is a two-phase miniboss found in The Junkyard. This entry represents a variant or duplicate of the Can Creeper encounter, sharing the same core two-phase design: a trash can phase with directional damage immunity followed by a faster, can-less phase with Electric immunity.

Phase 1 features 40 HP with frontal-only vulnerability, diagonal projectile attacks, and a six-tile slide that leaves Creep and spawns Flies. The Creep field created during Phase 1 conducts electricity, which provides an avenue to deal damage despite the directional restriction. Phase 2 strips the can, grants 20 HP and speed 5, but removes Electric immunity from the front-only restriction.

AoE attacks that bypass directional immunity are the safest approach for Phase 1. Electric attacks through the Creep field also work. In Phase 2, switch to non-electric damage and rely on speed to chase the faster form. Prioritize dealing with spawned Flies as they appear to keep the battlefield manageable during the transition between phases.
