	* The most straightforward strategy is to stand at the room's entrance, using the blocks for cover and slowly wittling away at the bomb-launchers on Uruku's lower body.

	* An easier, but slow strategy is to stand of the upper 2-block wall on the left side of the room, jumping straight up and firing at the cannons on Uruku's back. The player can crouch and remain stationary as the laser sweeps the room to avoid its blast entirely. Destroying the upper cannons will drastically reduce the oncoming fire you take from the creature, and when they are all gone, you will be free to jump onto the 3-block wall (the one you used for cover) and fire downward into its mouth to finish the boss off.		* An easier, but slow strategy is to stand of the upper 2-block wall on the left side of the room, jumping straight up and firing at the cannons on Uruku's back.

You can use the [[Address Disruptor]] to glitch the single blocks just above the water. Doing so will allow the player to stand just below the second bomb-launcher and easily destroy it with the [[Kilver]]. Then you can use the [[Axiom Disruptor]] to fire upward and to the left at Uruku's mouth to finish him off.		*A faster, bolder strategy is to immediately run through the pink wastewater at the start of the fight, directly at Uruku.
