Why is the head of Medusa the Gorgon needed?
The Gorgon Medusa Head is a special item that allows you to turn enemies into stone. All you have to do is cut them with one blow and they are guaranteed to die. To get this artifact, you must defeat the Gorgon itself. Note that her head eventually ceases to function as an effective weapon. Therefore, you must periodically return to the boss to kill him again.
So there are two types of Gorgon heads in the game:
- Preserved head of the Gorgon. Place it where the lantern is and wave it to turn enemies to stone. But keep in mind that if it is in your inventory, it will quickly become unusable. We recommend that you place the head in a chest or warehouse and only take it with you if absolutely necessary.
