Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order – How To Beat The Oggdo Bogdo

The galaxy is full of dangerous creatures in Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, but the scariest are the Legendary Beasts. These four creatures, each located on a different planet, represent optional minibosses that guard useful upgrades and tidbits of story. The first of the Legendary Beasts you’re likely to encounter is the Oggdo Bogdo on Bogano, a giant, angry frog that will have you for lunch if you’re not careful.

Fortunately, you have some options when it comes to beating the Oggdo Bogdo. First, you can ignore it until you become more powerful through the course of the game, which will make the fight significantly easier. But if you’re bent on taking to Oggdo Bogdo down early, there’s another handy trick to attacking it that can give you a significant advantage in the fight ahead.

Where To Find The Oggdo Bogdo

The Bogano Sinkholes hides the Legendary Oggdo Bogdo, but you’ll need to take a bit of a circuitous pack to get there.

The Oggdo Bogdo hangs out on Bogano, and it’s not far off from where you first land in the Mantis when you arrive on the planet. From the Mantis, bear to the right as you enter the trenches that work through the planet. Look for a pair of pipes that cross over a gap leading toward spinning fans.

These pipes lead to the Oggdo Bogdo’s lair, in a cave to the right.

You’ll see another pipe to your right–that’s the path to the Oggdo Bogdo. Follow it and you’ll find a small, dark cave, blocked by some pipes you can cut through with your lightsaber. When you work your way through the tunnel, you’ll find the Oggdo Bogdo at the end.

How To Get The Drop On The Oggdo Bogdo

You can face the Oggdo Bogdo directly by entering its lair, but you’ll take it on at full strength–which isn’t exactly advisable. The creature has a ton of health and does big damage, and especially early in the game, you’re likely to be overmatched. But you can knock out a huge chunk of the Oggdo Bogdo’s health if you know what you’re doing and spend a little time exploring Bogano.

Climb up above the trenches in the Bogano Sinkholes to find some these big round holes. Drop through one and you can attack the Oggdo Bogdo with an aerial lightsaber strike, dealing a ton of damage.

Once you’ve entered and completed the story beats that take place in the Zeffo temple, you’ll head back to the Mantis by climbing up above the trenches and crossing the flat areas between them. As you go, you’ll probably notice some big holes near where the Mantis is parked. Look down through these, and you’ll see the Oggdo Bogdo. From up here, you can drop down on the creature and ambush it with an aerial attack. Do that and you’ll dish out a big hit that’ll remove between a quarter and a third of the creature’s total health.

Don’t forget to use Force Slow to get yourself out of trouble, and to block and parry the Oggdo Bogdo’s attacks when you can.

You’ll still have quite a fight waiting for you, though. The Oggdo Bogdo likes to leap at you with unblockable attacks, but even its standard biting strike can take you out. Remember that you can block and parry attacks from creatures with your lightsaber, and doing so can open up the Oggdo Bogdo to counter-attacks. Just be wary of its bites, since it likes to snap at you twice in an attack cycle, and swinging away too early can be the death of you.

Also remember that you can use Force Slow on the creature, which can give you a chance to reposition, get in an attack, or heal yourself. The best strategy here is to take your time to learn the Oggdo Bogdo’s attacks, and only attack when you’ve got a big opening. Don’t get greedy; hit the big frog once or twice, then back off.
