Ratsbane the Monk claims that he can destroy any rat in one blow. You need to survive a blow from Ratsbane to deny his theory, which is not as straight forward as you might think. To survive his blow you need to use logic and magic, not more health and armor.
How to survive a blow from Ratsbane, the One-Punch Monk
Step-by-step guide to survive the monks blow
- Unlock the egg
Complete rat quests until you reach B-tier, to unlock the egg form
- Reach C-tier on the egg
Find the first bird’s nest to level up the egg form. C-tier unlocks the Hardened Shell passive ability which is required to complete this quest. Nests are scattered all around the map – All nest locations.
- Unlock a passive slot
After talking with the hammer found early in the game, you will unlock the first extra passive slot. This allows you to equip an extra passive ability from another form.
- Equip Hardened Shell passive
The egg passive makes you unable to lose more than 1/3rd of your HP at once. This means that the monk can’t kill you in just one hit. To enable the passive you have to first turn into the Rat form and then go into the abilites page. - Initiate the blow
Lastly head over to the monk and prove his statement wrong.
