- Huntfly uses Cursed Sphere, and Somersault (single target damage).
- Huntfly casts Aero, Gravity, and Choke.
- Huntfly can be Gravitied, Bound, and Silenced.
- Huntfly cannot be slept.
- Sleepga being level 31, it is unavailable for this fight. Diabolos' Nightmare should be able to land, but it has not been tested. Sheep Song seems to have no effect.
- Houndflies have around 900HP, Huntfly has about 1800.
- The Huntfly and Houndflies have shared hate. Actions taken against one will generate hate from the others at a reduced rate.
