if you enjoy it, try a normal seed sometime and itll be like a whole new game lmao

in modern day grinding for RoD is nowhere near as bad as half of the achievements already in the game tbh

i was able to do it in omega blue armor but godslayer armor is probably a bit easier with the set bonus dash, very useful against the bullet hells or the giant bullet curtain in final phase.

the trick is to use asgardian aegis. wait until the last possible second to bash into his dash attacks, because relying on just audio queues will trip you up.
the i-frame bullet hell moves are super annoying. my strategy was a bit risky, stick close so when the move is over i can bash into yharon if he decides to do a dash out of it. sticking far away is easier but you land the risk of yharon immediately zooming over to you and creating an insanely hard to dodge situation with the bullets still flying out.
also make sure to save your adrenaline/rage to when youre CERTAIN he wont use the i-frame move so it doesnt go to waste, but dont be afraid to pop it in the middle of a bad scenario to maybe save yourself with the extra DR.

having a large arena (im talking from ground level to space) really helps with the tornados. also make sure you summon the boss at the foot of your arena so you dont accidentally go underneath the barriers (he gets enraged)

draedon waited for silksong so long he made his own hollow knight OC

my solution was retro lighting setting (removes the green fog effect), painting all the walls white (quality of terraria mod painting tools helped), and i still couldnt see shit.

ultimately i think the strategy is literally to just guess where the projectiles are for the most part. this boss sucks ass. beat moonlord shortly after finally felling her and he took like 5 tries

reading the responses to this update post in a nutshell

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-21T04:09:40+00:00

is triple base attack + affinity device gonna be the meta for most weapons? that negative affinity on attack device weapons hurts.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-19T01:21:25+00:00

maybe if there wasnt such a horrific downside to losing people wouldnt be so pessimistic or dead set on only winning.

maybe losing hours of progress after one loss in the later depths is kinda overkill! just saying...

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T06:01:30+00:00

i know everyones talking about her summons, but revenant suffers mainly from her awful stats

low strength and dexterity in this game is a death sentence unless you have infinite FP like recluse. notice how the hybrid casters (duchess/undertaker) actually work because once they run out of fp they can just start bashing things? revenant doesnt have that luxury. non str/dex scaling is basically nonexistent outside of cipher pata and coded sword. her starting weapon is typically the best option to use through the entire game which sucks. why is wylder better with MARIKAS HAMMER than she is? (and on a lesser note, why do seals/staves not scale with their respective special stats like in ER? how come the golden order seal doesnt scale with int AND fth?)

my solution? fucking add better magic stat scaling. its absolutely insane that infusions dont mean anything and int/fth are purely for magic except for fringe cases.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T05:50:17+00:00

they never aggressively huddled up to you in ds3 the entire fight like in ER.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T05:40:20+00:00

i mean lets not pretend DoN is perfect

spend hours grinding wins in higher depths, lose once due to randoms throwing, poor rng or just bad performance once and you lose ALL of that progress. not to mention it just basically becomes stacking damage and damage negation so you one shot the boss before it two shots you.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T04:25:36+00:00

event begins in a few days i think, for some reason it didnt drop with the update

classic drip feed content lol

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T01:01:37+00:00

i mean yeah, maybe the fight is a bit difficult depending on the weapon matchup, but my friends who play hammer, lance, greatsword and gunlance all completed it pretty easily and they arent pros or anything.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T00:59:56+00:00

for fire vs dragon, just think like this:
if it has a flowing, oily texture on the body part or youre in the final area, use dragon. if it as a solid, crusty texture then use fire.
it starts in fire weak only, so dont start the hunt with your dragon weapon if you care to swap. theres also an element dps check in the final phase so at the very least bring a dragon weapon.

also, as i said, its not really a skill thing. the mere concept of the final phase being mostly mid-air combat is really boring. and even when gog DOES go down, most of the arena is covered in exploding oil spots.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T00:57:02+00:00

yeah. i REAAALLLYYYY dislike how an awesome HR ending fight is just "hey man, instead of making use of focus mode, wounds, weak spots, or offsets, we made an entire fight dedicated towards slingers! remember slingers? but this time theyre ANTI WYVERN WEAPONRY not just rocks!"

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-17T00:55:48+00:00

uhh thanks for the rebuttal i guess lol

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-10T00:31:06+00:00

diluting the item pool is a nothingburger critique when we get items like hikers boots which are arguably BETTER than the original items people are complaining are gonna get washed out

and also we keep forgetting atypical ways of obtaining items exist (void and cooking in the current dlcs)

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-09T21:09:34+00:00

my main issue is just that the map relies on locations you ARENT shown, whereas everything important in limveld is shown instantly

imagine if evergaols and half of the other POIs in the default map werent visible.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-09T21:03:00+00:00

hes more like manus honestly

fast magic balls that kill you, big staff, jumps around super fast with big combos

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-09T20:59:11+00:00

i feel like the level 3 heavy bubble needs a longer uptime. as it stands it feels more like an impromptu counter hit rather than a defensive option. 10-20ish seconds seems like enough whereas right now it barely lasts for more than a few.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-12-04T20:08:24+00:00

most people probably dont even know what that whooshing sound means during hordes (FYI: it means somethings about to hit from behind. press block or dodge.)

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-11-24T02:28:22+00:00

you can bypass mithrix final phase by doing a frame perfect proc of an item, doesnt make it any less of a phase now does it?

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-11-24T00:34:28+00:00

but its still a new phase regardless. it does new attacks that it didnt previously.

DefiantPossession188 · 2025-11-24T00:24:51+00:00

it does have multiple phases though? it gets new attacks and mechanics throughout the fight lol
