nah nah I don’t think I worded it right. uh lemme try again
Basically a boss that’s fucked on the difficulty scale and REAL early on so you can fight it at a low level, but it’s likely you’ll get your ass kicked with 0 skill, and there’s no real requirements to fighting them besides getting access to a boat. but it’s total possibility to come back at a higher level to beat them as they’re a bit easier from the stat boosts and abilities you now have, ya feel?
so basically cernyx cause hes quite difficult if you arent prepared and he isnt required in the main storyline

probably
hoho i like me my optional bosses
oh sure! the first two are pretty simple, and mostly act like slightly souped up NPCs. not in a bad way, just to keep it simple enough for new players to understand. it’s by the third boss that they actually become notable threats. so, with that in mind, for a first time player doing them at the intended level I’d say it goes like this:
Final > Fourth > Fifth > Third > Optional
not that any of these are easy going in blind mind you, and these are also just my own take

Final boss > Argos > lady carina > lord Elius > Cernyx?
yeah
maybe he will add legendary ships
Not on early access but they’re planned
I really wanted vetex to add a difficulty rating for your bosses that’s what I would’ve wanted but he didn’t like the idea

I won’t be ranking the first two bosses cause they are much simpler, not in a bad way.
In terms of difficulty:
bronze sea final boss → sky boss → fort talos boss → Lady Carina → Cernyx
In terms of fun:
sky boss → bronze sea final boss → Lady Carina → fort talos boss → Cernyx
All of them are fun, and the difficulty/fun can vary depending on who you ask.

Most of the harder ones are more fun, it looks since they all have more stakes than the first two bosses. as soleil said, shura and iris are just souped up npcs
Though i wonder what makes Argos less difficult than elius?
hes easy to read
cap. I seen plenty of testers farmed by the first boss

you sayin Iris is actually somewhat difficult? noice
Bug fixes and the trello have mentioned that she dreaded a lot so if new players find her difficult I won’t be surprised

not iris, shura
iris i think would just be like fighting a high level dark wizard (if their ai was good) in wom
How much would you say the AI improved from WoM to AO? Is it majorly different or only some smaller changes (so they don’t look like goof balls)

I’m not a tester but from leaks it looks majorly different. Also most of the npcs in WoM are bugged someway at this point.
