General advice

1. You will defeat the boss with a special weapon that is located in the arena! You simply need to go down, and then turn left - there, you will notice a sword stuck in the ground. Equip it as soon as you pick it up.
2. The boss has some smaller copies of himself that raise the difficulty of the fight. Killing these copies will make the boss fight much easier, but you don't have to do so, because attacking them doesn't affect the boss's health bar.
3. Avoid open areas! The boss's smaller copies will attack you very often if you don't get rid of them. Hiding behind rocks will allow you to dodge many bullets.

How to defeat the boss?

The boss fight is very formulaic. First, you should look for a weapon that will allow you to hurt the Storm King. It is located on the left side of the arena. watch out for the bullets on your way down, and then turn left.

Equip the weapon as soon as you collect it. This weapon allows you to activate a special attack which sends an air wave at your enemies. Mark your opponent with R3 and then attack with your weapon.

Remember that you won't be able to hit the boss all that often, because he moves from one end of the arena to the other. Therefore, if the huge manta ray is out of sight, or you can't hit it because it is too far away, focus on eliminating the smaller opponents. This will make the boss fight much easier.

Watch out for one of the Storm King's more powerful attacks - a volley shot in your direction. Just like before, you can hide behind a large rock so that the boss doesn't kill you.
