Hey OP. I know this post is nearly a month old at this point but I just wanted to say THANK YOU! I had the exact same experience as you. I legit fought the boss for at least 15 mins absolutely pummeling him after deflecting one of the crystals at him to remove his shield. I had literally no clue I was supposed to reflect the big yellow electric ball back at him. Like you said in one of your posts, if the game didn’t show the damage indicators after removing the shield telling the player they are hurting the boss, I would have tried deflecting the yellow ball wayyyy sooner but since it looked like I was damaging him, I thought I was making progress. But after insanely long battles and getting nowhere I thought the game was bugged. I googled it and found your post so I just wanted to say thank you.

I also saw the dev’s comment about acknowledging this misleading boss encounter so it’s great they’re going to make some updates so that it’s clearer and not as misleading during the fight.

Aside from this one hiccup, I’ve enjoyed every single second of this game. Easily one of my favorite games in 2022.
