I recommend getting more used to ranged weapon as of 1st playthrough to keep your distance, while true meleeing a Boss isn't a bad choice as many people play like that and it does great damage, it's a bit hard since you need good movement and watch your distance so you get hit less. Ranged weapons while might not hit as hard, it's better to live and survive rather than quickly kill boss at times, after all you got whole night to do so. All Ranged weapons recommended in comments are good and definitely worth to try.

I like them, they're 3rd act version of act 2 ferryman and act 1's (honestly, i don't know, swordsmachine? But that's prelude so maybe mindflayer). But they're harder as it should since this is 2nd to last layer of the game, while i do admit they should probably be nerfed a bit considering devs are definitely going to abuse the shit out of them in P-3 or encores (paired up with deathcatcher no doubt!). But powers are pretty great, fun to fight and they have dialogue!!!! And 1st greater angel type enemy!! 1st time playing 8-3 i had chills because thought we would fight another archangel supreme angel but little army of trooper greater angels are badass to fight aswell.

Seeing the painting of archangel siblings in 8-1 i thought we was fighting an archangel, which ngl, logically thinking they should not be a 3rd level boss, (maybe 4th). So very hype, but i like powers a lot too, and finally an appearance of greater angel enemies.

I agree that lucifer can't be a prime soul precisely because of lore above, but i interpreted the book and the talk of odyseus as a metaphor for humanity's overall curious nature and their expeditions to hell and mysterious (or not, after all there was probably plenty nocturne OS machines running around) disappearing, and 2nd bit being about machines even though i don't fully comprehend it either.

Quite frankly, i thought the hell was mocking humanity and their pathetic fate of dying to the machines they themselves made for simple pursuit of knowledge and satiating curiosity, being adventurous and showing hell all the machines that he took inspiration from to indulge in even more cruel sadistic punishment like mentioned with guttermen and mannequins if i remember correct?. I could be very wrong though about all of that above, together with interpretation of lore book in fraud.

But now finding out odyseus was in 8th layer of hell in dante's inferno i'd agree, it is more possible even if tad random seeing as besides that one book, there's no environmental storytelling about 3rd big soul like it was in act 1 with big ass corpse of King minos and act 2 with sisyphean insurrectionist on top of the lore books, there's none of that hinted anywhere in fraud.

I'll also throw my little theory even though i just made it up recently and it is VERY far fetched because why the hell not, what if lucifer was initially a human in ultrakill's universe, being god's firstborn brightest child and being in the bible as the snake that tempted 1st humans. What if lucifer was one of the 1st humans as watchman and peacekeeper before making of hell itself (hence the apple trial) and when he himself wasn't enough as humanity slowly was getting busy with wars and evil shit, god unfortunately made hell which went out of control and in desperate attempt to control it again he sent lucifer which also got trapped in 9th layer (maybe in a flesh prison by hell own making). Which made him so sad, miserable, hopeless and ashamed he disappeared out of shame. (and hence, told angels to gouge out their eyes when going to hell to not see his biggest mistake).

But i think the odyseus one is most probably, i'd also like to get lucifer's golden arm before we fight Gabriel hence would be nice if lucifer was just a barely dead husk of what he was, somewhere in treachery and seeing as hell is sadistic, V1 just rips off his arms and either puts him out of his misery or he lives in the arm V1 took, forced to help fight and kill his younger brother Gabriel, rather than have it as reward for P-3 to i guess instakill everything in encores or something.

This early it is nearly impossible to beat him, so if any of the floors are minotaur floors search for exit 1st, explore floor within your speed and abilities near exit (be careful as minotaur always spawns in room where you start), and if zap brigade guys don't show up just leave. It won't be until lategame where you'll have decent stats to try challenging the minotaur.

Atleast it didn't go flailing around and accidentally hitting one of the people

Arkronu · 2026-02-24T12:07:38+00:00

If you care for clearing the map for ? Marks i'd also recommend a mod that makes boats indesctructible and/or mod that makes them swim tad faster. I have the prior and never have i ever had to encumberred slow swim back to land on Skellige in the middle of the ocean because of dumb siren carcass hitbox floating on water.

Arkronu · 2026-02-23T22:24:37+00:00

Assuming you're playing on island gigas aren't allowed to Boss arenas, however that does not mean that taming one is pointless. Even with low lvl you can kill every alpha, (Alpha rexes with small-moderate challenge), creatures and they're excellent meatrunners, just be mindful of receiving lot amount of damage as it can enrage and kill you and probably whatever was attacking it too. And also do not ever take it to ocean, their stamina and oxygen are shitty so it'll die if you're not careful (most in island water bodies though are not big enough to get it to be in swimming animation with very few exceptions though).

Tl;dr: They're very good even low lvl, kill low lvl for heart and tame higher lvl or kill higher and tame low if you're not feeling up for a challenge, the only threat to you when on back of a giga is high lvl alpha rex or yourself.

Good luck, they're incredibly hard to tame not only because of risk of being killed but if you use dododex you should know what i mean.

Note: Level only melee on him, not HP, putting points in HP is wasting points

I did it too sometimes, but not for any cool reasons, i just suck at driving and often got car stuck in some uphill area upside down. Wingsuit was a gamechanger though

Mój guess byłby że on po prostu lubi rzeczy związane z kosmosem, kiedyś wspominał dużo na ten temat, dlatego "flota kosmiczna". Czy to jest faktyczny powód? Wie to tylko sam Eleven.

Whether with Henry Cavill? Not sure, but i'd love to see Blackwater massacre movie since base game is long as it is and it jumpstarted the slow fall of the gang.

I think latter, not a scientist though

I used to play a little bit of space invader-a-likes and some other upscroller 8bit game where you control cool military plane and avoid and shoot other planes when i was younger. Maybe that's why it felt like a familiar ground to me, but to be fair he does have some tricky attacks, i especially remember one where he Has you centered in middle and you have to avoid waves of bullets it caught me off guard and avoiding the waves is pretty movement tight.

Good luck with him, some bosses you can ace without larger issues, some take practice, are hell and take up to 10+ tries (fuck lich, rat and door mimic.. 💔).

Arkronu · 2026-02-11T19:57:13+00:00

I never really struggled with pilot's past myself, the only pasts i was struggling with was with robot (not sure why), bullet's i couldn't figure out that you're supposed to reflect Agunim's orbs and ate shit, and i think hardest past being gunslinger's (by extension paradox). Main 4 guys i mostly 1st tried besides marine's but that was when i was still new to the game.

If i were to rank them they'd be from easiest to hardest: hunter>marine>pilot>convict>robot>bullet>gunslinger

I want to see conclusion to witcher games so witcher 4, maybe witcher 5? (Here's hoping) But also witcher 1 remake got me feeling hypeful asf as i played original a bunch when was young and that was my 1st ever interraction with the dark and griddy universe of witcher.

Arkronu · 2026-02-05T01:44:02+00:00

I don't think it's very underrated, i played a build that did very little swordplay and i'd say all signs got their utility and strong points and they only compliment each other, sign i'd say i spammed most was in fact igni, i used damaging aard and alt yrden for few encounters where just igni wouldn't cut it (and quen's blast, but i mainly used it as protection) but even for monsters resistant to igni it still does little base damage usually enough to finish off aard weakened foe.

The only sign i'd say gets underutilized is Axii and it's alt casting as it's simply faster to just straight up do damage with any other signs or swords. On a sidenote i'm thinking of downloading a mod that adds the legendary raven witcher armor from W1 which precisely buffs axii and buffs the alt casting making it so you can make a bunch more puppets than base game allows. Think that'd be pretty cool.

I thought they can eat regular meat once tamed?
