id move carina to the top, calvus and marina down a tier
After fighting Calvus numerous times, I can safely say that his pillar attack is actually fine. It can easily be canceled if you pay attention, and you can dodge to avoid everything but the first hit, then block the secondary explosion if in stage 2.
No, the real deadly attack from Calvus is his Aether barrage. If this attack catches you when youāre in a move, you can say goodbye to about half your HP.
āULTIMATE ARTā¦ā
If fully charged:
āANNIHILATION!!!ā
If Interrupted:
āANNIHIL- Gah! How dare you!ā (the amount of the spell name he gets out depends on how quickly heās hit)
This would probably make it a bit clearer that hitting him is good.
Or just give that move like an emitting aura whenever heās channeling it, like when Maria charges up her water move that hits hard
I tried using cannon fist (the most destructive thing) and it didnāt do anything to the ship
okay honestly fumbling against carina is⦠eh? She does like 5 damage on a good day..
Carina really isnāt hard but her placement makes sense if weāre considering how boring the fight is
She kinda just jumps around and you have to swat a regenerating mosquito.
Also one main HUGE issue I have with almost every boss is that they can dodge, parry and attack ALL AT THE SAME TIME if they decide to do so, they need to be made so they can only do one of those things at a time AND give their moves a minimum cooldown of like 2 seconds between them so you actually have a window to punish them. (and all moves should have like 5 second cooldowns atleast so they cannot use them twice in a row)
King Caesar is the only peak boss in this update.
Ample of room, actual dodgeable attacks. Only problem is the environment destruction making pockets.
As for the other bosses:
- Jorund is hard to find sometimes
- Leviathan is boring
- Ormolu is even more boring (just stand at the entrance lmao (unless you are a berzerker))
- Prince Allanonās a methed-up flying monkey and doesnāt help that his arena is a mess
- Fighting Jarl Ivar is like fighting in a cage except your enemy has an RPG in his hands
- Tower bosses are alright to be honest
- Couldnāt care less for the roaming bosses
Jarl Ivar thing is spot on, except he has nuclear bomb bullets in his AK-47 that are basically unavoidable with how much he jumps around and spams moves
half of them have their AI break most of the time and that guy with the poison axe (forgot his name) cant even use his weapon skills lol
Like idk what vetex was thinking when he did Jarl Ivar. āHmm yes I am not gonna use the entire Fenrir and instead put the arena in a small part of the ship!ā
Or you know, use the literal empty ahh island with plenty of space next to the Fenrir and have the storm guy burn the ship in the story BEFORE we start leaving.
pre full release iāve only ever seen 2 things happen at the same time
(attack/block & parry)
or
(block/parry & dodge)
after FR, Allanon fucking does all 3, using ray and then moving before the spell ends
why is that mf ivar not on the bottom category?? ![]()
small arena aside, in his mirage fight there are flames everywhere that can burn you for 50 dot and he still sucks ass to fight even as a min-maxxed player, and sometimes he just does something that deals 1500 damage + a million bleed stacks throughout the entire arena
Massive ship and weāre stuck fighting him in a broom closet
This is way better than what I was thinking of.
i used to think calvusā pillar was bs until some dude told me after two deaths that if i hit him while heās charging it the attacks damage output will be heavily reduced and after that, js needed practice and beat him after a few tries. unironically fun boss
i died three times to shura before doge king helped me but he isnāt troublesome
iris is errrr i hate her because i always try to dps check her but she kills me faster
on my first playthrough i almost gave up on elius but doge king saved me again. nowadays i first try him pretty easily
argos is challenging, thatās all
carina is annoying because you gotta keep on damaging her or else sheāll regen 300 hp
maria is errr i just dps check her but sheās not that bad
allanon should be rebalanced and given sound and vfx cues for his annoying moves
jarl ivar is fine tbh
jorund is fun and makes me have high expectations for the upcoming legendary ship fights
caesar is fun and challenging
ormolu needs a rework
leviathan is lame
halljborn is a bit underwhelming but heās fine too
This I fear is a skill issue because redwake gives you access to the second amendment which obliterates everything in the game before elius regardless of your stat build.
Bullets hurt, who woulda thunk it.
