The Hunter of the Mesa is the second Darkmess Tentacle battle on Barrendale Mesa in Mario + Rabbids Sparks of Hope. This battle is part of the main quest Momma's Payback. It is located beneath Momma's garage, although it rises up from the ground after Daphne captures Momma. In this battle, the heroes must defeat Daphne, the last of Cursa's Spark Hunters. Like Midnite, the battle is fought in three phases, each with a different layout, and heroes cannot be changed between phases. After the battle, the heroes obtain the final Purified Darkmess Energy Crystal, along with the Memory for Daphne. Momma is also rescued, and Daphne is defeated. The heroes also briefly see Rosalina break free from Cursa. This is the final Darkmess Tentacle battle.

Layout[edit]

Each phase of the battle has a different layout, but Daphne is always on the opposite side of the battlefield, on high ground.

Phase 1[edit]

The path is a straight path to Daphne with pipes at the sides connecting to reach closer to Daphne. There is high ground close to Daphne, and it is also present on the right side. There are two Sea Stooges and two groups of Goombas close to Daphne, being in two groups of three.

Phase 2[edit]

Daphne is on the other side of the battlefield, also on high ground.

Phase 3[edit]

The area is the biggest battlefield of the battle, consisting of pipes, Jump Panels, and lots of elevation to reach Daphne, located at the very top.

Barrels containing the Burn and Ooze Super Effects are located on the higher ground of the battlefield.

During the first phase, Darkmess portals containing Sea Stooges will appear. The second phase also has Darkmess portals, containing Squashettes instead. The third phase does not have any Darkmess portals.
