Dealing with Red Gargoyles
The easiest way to defeat a Red Gargoyle is to just use the Crossbow. Get as close to it as you can to it, jump forward and then hit it while it’s sitting down. When it’s in the air, double jump straight up and use the Crossbow at the highest point in your jump. Without the Crossbow, get close enough that you can double jump toward it and not run into it. Make sure that you are a little higher than the Red Gargoyle and fire your weapon at it. When it flies up it’ll get hit by the blast. The rest is more complicated so I’ll do it in point form.

1: If the Red Gargoyle isn’t too high to reach with a double jump try walking away from it. It will follow you and very likely try to swoop in at you. If it does, turn around and quickly hit it. You will have to kill it with that hit or it will just keep flying toward you. You can try ducking or running away if there’s a slope to avoid getting hit.

2: If the Red Gargoyle is too high to reach with a double jump try walking toward it and then under it to the other side. There’s a chance that it will just drop down on top of you but it will likely try to swoop in at you. Turn around and hit it quickly if it does. You will have to kill it with that hit or it will just keep flying toward you like the first method.

3: The Red Gargoyle is sometimes just ignore you and do it’s crazy dance on the ground it was flying above. You can get in another easy hit here by getting close and following the same method as when it was sitting down.
