Octoguys can be one of the most difficult enemies in the Mario Series so items like [[Life Mushroom]]s should be equipped. This enemy is in fact pretty clever. Players should be careful when fighting this foe as Octoguys come in large packs. They are also considered to be the most threatening enemy the 3d games. It is really recommended that you avoid a ton of Octoguys you see as you are likely to lose multiple lives and take huge damage from them. There are two reason why Octoguys are very hard to kill. The first reason why Octoguys are resilient is because an Octoguy's rock is much faster than an Octoomba and unlike their weaker cousins, Octoguys will chase Mario. The second reason is when they are near a cliff, Mario may fall off the ledge and possibly lose a life. What's even worse that makes it more frustrating for the player is because Octoguys will back away when Mario is near them to dodge every attack that Mario attempts, however, they will eventually become tired and they will stop running to catch their breath. This gives Mario an easier attempt to defeat them though Octoguys do not get tired for long at all. Mario must quickly slay them after when they attack. A Star Bit can be used against an Octoguy leaving it defenseless. Humorously if Mario used a [[Ground Pound]] on them, it will be flat as a pancake. The easiest and proper way to kill Octoguys is by [[Spin]]ing them or shooting a [[Star Bit]] then stomps while [[Jump]]ing on them without using Star Bits can be hard. Like most enemies, they drop a [[Coin]] or 3 [[Star Bit]]s by jumps or Spining them respectivly.
