Then he must attack him with the sword as many times as possible before he can get back behind the large roller. Defeating Rolling Bones will open the way to the boss, Moldorm, and open a warp back to the entrance of the dungeon.
Rolling Bones also appears as one of many previous mini-bosses in Turtle Rock. If defeated in Turtle Rock, he will return like a regular enemy.
