argos is a gigachad all around
fun, not too hard boss fight, good lore
anyways elius and calvus are big difficulty spikes, maybe nerf their health to like 1000 and 4000

Personally i love Calvus. Leadup to the fight is sick, the fight itself is cool, it has neat mechanics like cancelling his ultimate, and enforces patience to land hits when hes attacking. Honestly probably my favorite design in the game. Even now i fight him over and over.

Theres one boss i canā€™t stand tho, and imma see if the polls here agree with me to make sure im not living in my own head before i make suggestions for change.

is it maria
make her water shield have 500 health and if you break it she gets stunned and her attack cancelled for like 3 seconds (like breaking stance in elden ring)

i do agree that its annoying as shit

I cannot agree for it would skew results but also fuck it because yes its Maria. Her invincibility mechanic, her underground arena, her absurd damage for the level you fight her- its just absurd.

Why did you exclude Carina?

Argos is the boss vetex had spent the most time on and you could tell, when i first played he was the highlight of the story for me

also carina is so irrelevant she didnt even make it to any of the polls :skull:

Oops knew i forgot someone :skull:

can you forward that suggestion i made to vetex :grin:

Depending on how the poll goes i can yea.

i dont want players to go ā€œhell no now i cant do any damageā€ i want them to go ā€œHELL YEAH FREE DAMAGE :money_mouth_face::money_mouth_face::money_mouth_face:ā€

Ngl I feel like cernyx is argos comparable boss, which is to say, really good, just the low level greenwich goons are annoying.

Calvus was a bit of a difficulty spike, but at the same time I think heā€™s the best boss in the game. Heā€™s got well telegraphed attacks and itā€™s not too difficult to figure out how to counter/dodge them. He is hard but I donā€™t think heā€™s unfair or needs rebalancing.

reduce his health by 500 or so cause rn its dash around and spam projectiles
reduce the needed amount of projectile spam

Elius + calvus

I donā€™t think that would really change much nor do I really think a nerf is needed

i was able to beat elius after a lot of tries but calvus just felt impossible and i had to get someone to help me :skull:

nowadays though they are all fodder

If Shura and Iris were made to be a bit harder then the sudden difficulty spike that is Elius wouldnā€™t be so jarring

Cernyx is imo a well designed boss
Has a second phase
Big fancy attack
Great arena
And it overal gave me the thought of ā€˜oh wow this man is pretty dangerous I should lock inā€™

yeah and the attacks where he flings you up into the air is fun
