Experiment No.2 is found in the manhole near the witch's house during and after the Grim Tales quest.

This monster has both a melee and ranged attack, although it will only use one style depending on your distance from it. When it attacks with ranged, it throws the shrunk ogleroot that it has in its arm on its head. The shrunk ogleroots that are thrown may appear beneath the player and can be picked up.
