• Ormolu is actually great. I know some people believe that being able to cheese the boss makes it unfun but i completely disagree. For example, one of my favourite bosses in one of my favourite games is Genichiro from Sekiro, here is a video of cheesing Genichiro:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bsnVzcnxJg8The fact that he can be cheesed does not make the fight worse because i can simply choose to not cheese him. Genichiro is still one of the best video game bosses ever despite cheesing him being that easy. Vetex isn’t holding my hand forcing me to ruin my own experience by cheesing the boss.With that out of the way, Ormolu has a few moves in his arsenal, there is his main damage dealer, the tracking pillar slam. The tell is him raising one hand and slamming, in his purple phase, you can avoid it by waiting for it then dodging three times to a free side. In the red phase, it needs to be dodged 4 times. It does a lot of damage if it lands and in the red phase him landing it might be instant death. Another attack is the double slam, he raises both hands and slams, dealing damage initially, and then more damage when the spikes come out, in the red phase, there is a third pulse after the spikes that deals even more damage, the best method is to just parry all the hits as the timing isn’t too hard. If he hunches over, he can do one of two different attacks, one to summon his minions or one that summons spikes to shoot out in multiple directions. you don’t know which is which till you see the crystals on the ground for the minions or the crystals around the body for the spikes. Either way its a chance for free damage, and killing the little warriors makes it so they don’t chase you for the final attack. The final attack is the big attack where he continuously launches spikes from all over, it’s a get away attack and forces you into one of the corners to avoid it, and it punishes you for not killing the little warriors because they can just chase you and deal damage to you while you are hiding. His boss room is spacious enough for him to show off his moves. I like the boss model alot, his animations feel very natural except the few times he T-poses, and his boss music feels eerie. Overall great fight. 9/10. However, with the new update to his boss arena, there seems to be randomly spawning undodgeable debris that constantly falls on his arena. If this isn’t a bug, that takes the fight from a 9 to a 7/10, I don’t really like too much rng in boss fights, and 300 is too high for random undodgeable environmental damage.
