Mewgenics Dybbuk Boss Guide

Dybbuk is a dodge-and-possession boss. The first problem is removing Backflip escape tiles; the second is planning for Possess after the apparent kill so the fight does not reverse at the finish.

Location: The Boneyard HP 85 Damage 5

Fast answer

Read this first
Main idea

Start by limiting adjacent escape tiles rather than spending your strongest single-target attack into a free Backflip.

Biggest mistakes
  • Feeding endless single-target attacks into Backflip without first removing adjacent escape tiles.
  • Letting Lick drain all mana from the cat that carries your main control or finishing tools.
Winning line
  • Crowd Dybbuk's adjacent escape tiles with bodies, familiars, hazards, or terrain before committing important attacks.
  • Use AOE, damage-over-time effects, or other patterns that still connect after Backflip.

Mechanics snapshot

The main mechanics and triggers that shape this fight.

Main mechanics
Backflip Mana Drain Summon/Spawn Possession Teleport Escape Undead
Key triggers
Backflip moves Dybbuk to an open adjacent tile when the tile he occupies is targeted by an attack or spell. Below 50% HP, Dybbuk can use a once-per-battle Escape teleport if boxed in. When downed, Dybbuk can possess a player cat or downed cat instead of ending the fight immediately.

Moves to know

Important attacks, abilities, or fight behaviors to recognize.

Backflip

Dodges a targeted attack or spell by moving to an open adjacent tile; charges are effectively unlimited.

Lick

Deals 5 physical damage to an adjacent unit and drains all of that unit's mana.

Summon Wisps

Summons two Wisps.

Escape

Below 50% HP, teleports up to 5 tiles away when boxed in; usable once per battle.

Possess

Takes control of a player cat after Dybbuk is downed, with follow-up behavior depending on the possessed target.

Fight plan

The safest way to approach the fight without reading a wall of text.

Decision-first notes
Win conditions
Crowd Dybbuk's adjacent escape tiles with bodies, familiars, hazards, or terrain before committing important attacks. Use AOE, damage-over-time effects, or other patterns that still connect after Backflip. Plan the possession phase before lethal; vaporize or Doom Dybbuk when your build can bypass possession entirely.
Opener
  • Start by limiting adjacent escape tiles rather than spending your strongest single-target attack into a free Backflip.
Midfight
  • Use summons, AOE, and damage-over-time pressure to keep damage flowing while Dybbuk dodges.
  • Protect the mana pool of the cat that will handle the possession phase.
Finisher
  • Set up the post-lethal possession answer before the killing blow, or use a destroy/Doom line that bypasses it.

β–Ύ
Run killers
  • Feeding endless single-target attacks into Backflip without first removing adjacent escape tiles.
  • Letting Lick drain all mana from the cat that carries your main control or finishing tools.
  • Killing Dybbuk without planning for Possess and then losing the fight to your own controlled cat.
Positioning rules
  • Close escape tiles without clumping so Backflip has fewer legal destinations.
  • Keep high-value mana users away from easy Lick range.
  • Before lethal, decide which cat can safely absorb or answer Possess if the phase triggers.
Loadout hints
Prioritize
AOE or efficient cleanup
Avoid
