Tips and Mechanics

Weak Point - Head

Stunning the Whopperflower by breaking it's Shield reduces all resistances by 25%, making it much easier to damage. Prioritize doing this whenever you see it perform this attack, and prioritize damaging it during it's stunned phase.

Using environmental damage from certain attacks can be very effective against Whopperflowers as it is not affected by their high resistance.

If there are other enemies, it can often be better to focus those first and ignore the Whopperflowers until they shield, as they have higher resistances until stunned. They will also Burrow towards you frequently, so will often group up by themselves.
