Enemy

At a glance, Lord of Ruin Jagando may not seem that dangerous, as he only has 300 range and the first two hits of his attack total to just 12,000 damage, with the third taking much longer to execute. These major weaknesses are completely offset by an Omni Strike that extends Jagando's reach to 450, removing any chance of him missing his third hit and allowing him to reach the majority of non-Uber Rare Cats, including Shield Piercers that could help cut down his effective health pool of 5,600,000. If that weren't enough, the third hit also carries a wildly inconsistent Surge Attack that has a 30% chance to spawn and could wipe out everything or nothing depending on when and where it appears; so don't expect to beat him on your first try.

Strategy

Trivia

• As a skull-wearing demonic god of destruction summoned by an evil priest, he is more than likely a reference to the Dragon Quest character Malroth.
• He may be a hermaphrodite, as despite being male according to The Aku Realms ending, he laid an egg which hatched into Jagando Jr.
• He has the highest health of all Aku Enemies.
  • When counting all three hits of his attack, he has the highest base attack power of all Akus.
• He is tied with High Priest Mamon for the highest Shield health of all Aku enemies.
