Heket's most common attack is to jump and crash down to the ground, causing a shockwave. You will need to watch where Heket is and where the boss will land. You also need to watch her tongue as she can shoot this out with a lot of speed.

For ranged attacks, Heket can either fire projectiles or her tongue but will also spit out a group of flies. You should kill these as quickly as possible because they will chase you down. Frog enemies will also spawn; you need to kill these, or you risk getting overwhelmed. This is also a good source of Fervor.

Overall, you want to keep a middle distance between Heket and yourself. Rush in when Heket finishes using a move and remains stationary. Get a few hits in and dash away, but also make sure you are taking out any enemies that spawn.
