LORE & DESCRIPTION
A disgraced chef wielding massive ladles and cleavers in a confined kitchen chamber. Combat focuses on slams, sweeps, and ground pounds, accompanied by numerous Muckmaggot orbs and bug waves, requiring players to prioritize clearing adds and attack cautiously.
MOVESET

Spawns approximately 4 small bug orbs. Clear adds first; the landing recovery frame is the most stable punish window (1-2 hits).
Brief pause after passing through your position allows for safe 1 hit; staying low and moving aside is more reliable.
