How to Defeat Carrion Husk in Evil West?
The best way to beat Carrion Husk is by constantly interrupting its attacks with Kick Off once you see it glow.

Typical for the first boss of a game, Carrion Husk in Evil West is a pushover. It can constantly be interrupted when it glows and be repeatedly destroyed with a series of melee attacks. The only time you really need to keep your distance is when you miss the opportunity for a Kick Off interrupt.
Carrion Husk has a few attacks to watch out for:
- Shockwave Stomp: Carrion Husk will stomp on the ground indicated by a red circle which will send shockwaves at you in succession.
- Fist Smash: Carrion Husk will swing both of its fist to the center if you’re near.
- Charge Smash: Carrion Husk will charge to your position with arms raised and bring them slamming down.
- Jump Smash: Carrion Husk will jump and smash the ground sending a small shockwave around.
All of the attacks above can be interrupted by a Kick Off. Carrion Husk will glow before attacking which gives you the nod to interrupt the attack before it hits. Since damage from your gun doesn’t effect Carrion Husk much, melee attacks are your best bet to take this monster down.
After you’ve drained Carrion Husk’s health down, you’ll be able to execute it which puts it down for good. You have now defeated Carrion Husk in Evil West.
