Unbreakable blocks near the corners of the room block the humongous Royal Jelly, and can be used for shelter from its attacks (but beware being trapped by his smaller brethren). However, a Maskeraith is a viable replacement for Poison Vials, as its Quill attack can both Poison and deal additional damage for every Quill attached to the King. Status vials - particuarly Poison - are very helpful in any strategy. Knights may also wish to employ some form of crowd control, such as a Freezing Vaporizer or Graviton Vortex. When using a starvation strategy, weapon choice becomes less important but Shadow damage will still come in handy. The Vile Striker is also a good option due to the chance of inflicting poison. The Nightblade line or Dark Retribution are popular choices for the fight due to their shadow damage. Swords are generally favored, both because of their higher damage and because the swarm of jellies that surrounds the king under this strategy makes it difficult to hit him with gunfire. When blitzing the Royal Jelly, it's important to have high damage output to limit his window for healing. Slimes perk, but has more limited utility outside the Jelly Palace. The Chroma line is also clearly fitting with its Damage Bonus vs. Because no enemy in the Palace inflicts any statuses (Besides Lumbers), a Chaos set is also a viable option. The Wolver line and Bristling Buckler are popular choices for protection, but one may employ a Swiftstrike Buckler for added weaponspeed. The Royal Jelly and Jelly Minis do normal damage, but Jelly Cubes and Royal Polyps deal piercing none of which inflict status effects. Note: this technique is disputed, see the discussion page. Starvation will never kill the king as fast as a well-executed blitz, but it is more forgiving of mistakes and opens up a number of tactical possibilities that simply aren't viable when using the blitz. Note that the Royal Polyps have considerably more health than regular Polyps. More Royal Polyps will appear at the beginning of new phases of the fight, but do not seem to respawn on a timer until the final phase when the Royal Jelly begins his rage spins. This also greatly reduces the number of enemies in the room, making it much easier to maneuver and avoid damage. If knights kill the Royal Polyps (and any lingering Royal Minis), then the Royal Jelly loses his ability to heal, and the knights can wear him down at their leisure. Fire and Curse are also popular for maximizing damage dealt. Poison can be used to temporarily block the Royal Jelly's healing, making it easier to accumulate damage. If they keep the pressure up, the king will fall. Knights can overcome the Royal Jelly's healing capabilities by simply overwhelming his healing with a huge damage output no matter how many royal minis surround him, he can only absorb them so fast. There are two main approaches to killing the Royal Jelly: blitz or starve. In this state he's impervious to damage and can deal a large amount of damage with a fair amount of knockback, but because of the attack's indiscriminate nature it's easy enough to avoid. He will turn pink and start to spin in a counterclockwise fashion. When he loses his crown on the final phase, the Royal Jelly will begin to periodically go into a rage. New ones appear at the beginning of each phase. The Royal Jelly is also assisted by Royal Polyps which are stationed around the perimeter of his chambers - they can create numerous Royal Minis as well as shooting piercing barbs, both of which are capable of healing the Royal Jelly. Coming into direct contact with him will repel you backwards, dealing moderate damage and knockback regardless of whether he was attacking at that given moment. He uses a 360 degree spin attack with substantial knockback, and occasionally summons four Jelly Cubes to assist him.
His walking speed is incredibly slow, but like his lesser brethren is capable of using a full-bodied tackle for an instant burst of speed. The Royal Jelly is capable of automatically destroying breakable blocks that he comes into contact with. The Royal Jelly surrounded by both Royal Minis and Jelly Cubes.
