Like all Arachnorbs, the weak point of the Baldy Long Legs is its abdomen, which is suspended high up in the air by its spindly legs. As it marches around the field, it will crush anything in its path, so be sure to steer clear of its large, trampling feet. Instead, throw Pikmin at its legs to make them climb up. Be sure to throw them at the leg that had just stopped moving, so they can quickly reach the top before the Baldy Long Legs knocks them down. When they reach its head, they will attack it until the creature shakes them off. When it's about to shake, whistle your Pikmin off and wait for it to resume its stomping before you throw more at it. | Like all Arachnorbs, the weak point of the Baldy Long Legs is its abdomen, which is suspended high up in the air by its spindly legs.

Another strategy is to use [[Ultra-Spicy Spray]] | Another strategy is to use [[Burgeoning Spiderwort |Ultra-Spicy Spray]] and any color Pikmin; simply wait until the Baldy Long Legs is near an elevated ledge, and you can throw Pikmin of any kind directly onto its head. This tactic can be used to quickly get rid of it with little to no Pikmin losses, as it will be too busy shaking off Pikmin to attack. | ||
In the Mission Mode stage [[Tropical Wilds Remix]], [[Winged Pikmin]] can be used to defeat the Baldy Long Legs with ease, as they will immediately swarm the abdomen. This works especially well with the aid of an Ultra-Spicy Spray. To save time, the player can simply leave 10 Winged Pikmin to kill the creature over time while the player focuses on other tasks. At the [[Clockwork Chasm]] in Battle Enemies, the Baldy Long Legs that appears here is easiest to defeat, as the elevated ledge it spawns on allows it to be dispatched with ''' | In the Mission Mode stage [[Tropical Wilds Remix]], [[Winged Pikmin]] can be used to defeat the Baldy Long Legs with ease, as they will immediately swarm the abdomen.

If encountered in a Bingo Battle stage, it is recommended that the players do '''''not '''''fight it together, as the player's Pikmin will be more prone to attacking the other player's Pikmin, rather than the Baldy Long Legs, which will probably result in many casualties and possibly even a [[Pikmin Extinction]]. | If encountered in a Bingo Battle stage, it is recommended that the players do '''''not '''''fight it together, as the player's Pikmin will be more prone to attacking the other player's Pikmin, rather than the Baldy Long Legs, which will probably result in many casualties and possibly even a [[Pikmin Extinction]]. | ||
