We'll cover everything from unlocking the secret boss to mastering his most brutal attacks, ensuring your victory in the Queen's Mansion.
Spamton NEO: Biography, Unlock Steps, and Preparation Checklist
Spamton G. Spamton is a minor antagonist and optional secret boss in Deltarune Chapter 2. Originally appearing as a sad, desperate salesman in the Trash Zone of the Cyber World, he is a corrupted Darkner who dreams of becoming a [[BIG SHOT]] and escaping his wire-bound existence. His transformation into Spamton NEO is a direct reference to the powerful Mettaton NEO from *Undertale*.
Spamton NEO Unlock Checklist (Mandatory Steps)
- Find Spamton in the Trash Zone: Locate the regular, dumpster-dwelling Spamton. You must ACT > Deal with him three times to get him to open his shop.
- Purchase the KeyGen: After acquiring the Blue Checkmark from the Hacker and progressing through the Mansion, return to Spamton’s shop. He will sell you the KeyGen for 1997 D$.
- Find the Secret Room: Use the KeyGen to unlock the secret basement door in the Queen's Mansion. This leads to a room where you will insert the KeyGen into a giant computer.
- Do NOT Defeat Regular Spamton: If you attack and defeat the mini-boss Spamton in the Trash Zone, you will be locked out of the NEO fight. Always choose the Pacifist route with him.
Recommended Gear and Healing Items
The correct equipment can drastically reduce the difficulty of this fight, regardless of your chosen route. Ensure your main party members—Kris, Susie, and Ralsei—are equipped with the best available armor.
- Mannequin Armor: Purchased from the shop with Noelle. This armor provides the highest defense for Kris in this fight and is highly recommended.
- Pink Ribbon: Found in the Cyber World. This is excellent for any party member, providing a decent defense boost.
- Frayed Bowtie: Found in the Mansion. Equip this to Ralsei or Susie for increased defense and a minor boost to their magic/attack.
- Iron Shackle: A good defensive accessory for Susie.
- Healing Items: Stock up on Fried Pipis (found in the Cyber World), CD Bagels, and Darkburgers. The Fried Pipis are particularly valuable for their high healing power.
Pacifist Route Strategy: Snapping the Wires for the Dealmaker
The Pacifist route is the 'true' optional boss fight, where the goal is to survive and use a series of ACT commands to sever the wires connecting Spamton NEO to his body. Winning this way rewards you with the incredible Dealmaker armor.
Phase 1: Surviving the Initial Assault
The first few turns are all about damage mitigation and building TP (Tension Points). Spamton NEO will use his signature "Big Shot" attacks, which are large, fast-moving projectiles. You must use your soul (represented by the heart) to shoot the blue-colored projectiles (like the blue Spamton heads or the "Pipis" missiles) to prevent them from hitting you and to charge your Big Shot counter.
- Kris's Role: Use Defend or the ACT > Snap command. The "Snap" command is your primary objective.
- Susie's Role: Use Defend or Rude Buster to deal light damage to the exposed parts of Spamton NEO (hearts, eyes, mouth) to end the attack faster.
- Ralsei's Role: Focus on Healing Prayer to keep the party's HP high and use Defend to build TP.
Phase 2: The Wire-Snapping Sequence
The fight changes once you start using the ACT > Snap command. There are four wires you must snap. You need to use the Snap command a total of four times, which requires surviving the ensuing attacks after each successful snap.
- Attack: Flappy Bird Segment: Spamton NEO will launch a series of blue Spamton heads in a row, mimicking the popular mobile game. You must use your Big Shot (charged by shooting blue projectiles) to blast holes in the rows, allowing your soul to pass through.
- Attack: Phone Call: Spamton will shoot projectiles shaped like phones. Stay near the bottom of the box and move up only to dodge the incoming waves.
- The Final Snap: Once the final wire is snapped, Spamton NEO will use his most powerful attack, the "Power of NEO" attack. You will be briefly assisted by Susie and Ralsei, who will help you dodge the final, massive wave of projectiles. Survive this last push to complete the fight.
Snowgrave Route Strategy: The Genocide Path to the Puppet Scarf
The Snowgrave Route is the alternate, darker path of *Deltarune Chapter 2*, where Kris and Noelle eliminate all enemies. On this route, Spamton NEO is the final boss, and the fight is significantly different—and harder. The reward is the Puppet Scarf.
Key Differences and Party Setup
In the Snowgrave route, your party is just Kris and Susie (Ralsei is absent for the fight), and you must defeat Spamton NEO by reducing his HP to zero through violence.
- Weapon of Choice: Ensure Kris is equipped with the best weapon you have, as you will be relying on physical attacks.
- TP Management: TP is critical for the X-Slash attack. You must constantly manage your TP to use this powerful move.
- No Healing from Ralsei: Since Ralsei is not present, you must rely entirely on healing items like Fried Pipis and Darkburgers.
The Aggressive Fight Strategy
Your strategy should be purely offensive, focusing on maximizing damage while surviving the onslaught of attacks. Spamton NEO’s attacks are much faster and more aggressive on this route.
- Kris's Role: Use FIGHT and the X-Slash command (requires 50% TP) as often as possible. X-Slash is your primary damage dealer.
- Susie's Role: Use Rude Buster or Defend. Use Rude Buster to keep the damage flowing, but prioritize Defend to help Kris build TP for X-Slash.
- Enraged State: A key tip is to use the ACT > Enrage command. This makes Spamton NEO's face turn red. While this makes his Big Shots deal less damage, it allows you to spam your attacks more effectively.
Mastering the Attacks
The attack patterns are similar to the Pacifist route, but the speed and bullet density are drastically increased. Focus on the following:
- Dodge and Shoot: Just like the Pacifist route, you must shoot the blue projectiles to charge your Big Shot. Use the Big Shot immediately to clear the screen and give yourself a moment of reprieve.
- The Pipis: These attacks are launched in a grid pattern. Stay in the center and make small, precise movements to weave through the gaps.
- Final Phase: The final phase is a pure test of endurance. Spamton NEO will use a relentless sequence of attacks. Do not hesitate to use your best healing items here. Land a final X-Slash or a powerful FIGHT command to end the battle and complete the Snowgrave route.
