My weekend's started today already, so I might get some more time in to play. Might continue Lies of P, but I'll probably start another playthrough of Disco Elysium instead - feel like going for some comfort gaming again.
By "easy" boss, I mean a boss like Asylum/Taurus Demon in DS1 or Chained Ogre/Bull in Sekiro: a boss that's meant to be more of an introduction to the game and pose a bit of a roadblock for new players but ultimately nothing that should take you too long. Maybe a gimmick boss too? Whatever you feel like should be easy and took you too long for your liking.
For me, it's probably Juzou the Drunkard from Sekiro. Mind you, basically any boss in Sekiro can give you a run for your money, but Juzou single-handedly made me quit the game three times over. Don't get me wrong - it's not an easy fight considering he's got a whole army of foot soldiers to help him and that you, essentially, need to pick them off one by one any time you try to reattempt the fight, plus he's got a strong moveset. But considering he's accessible so early on, basically right after getting access to Hirata Estate possibly even before fighting the Ogre, he's quite a challenge. He's still a roadblock for me at times whenever I go for another run these days and that's after getting a platinum and beating the game like 6 or 7 times?
Elden Ring: a playthrough with the Sword of Night and Flame; i need a palate cleanser after my RL1 run. With the ^Sword_of_Night_and_Flame^ I can invest nigh endless levels in a super powerful weapon that's not viable at RL1
Cleric Beast in Bloodborne: took me dozens of attempts. Bloodborne was my first Souls game and man did cleric beast throw me up and down that bridge. I even found Gascoigne's summon sign, got him killed twice and then didn't understand why his sign wasn't there anymore (I had no idea about Insight at that point). But eventually, very eventually Cleric Beast was defeated. Now that I think about it some more it's not that embarrassing. Cleric Beast is a tutorial Boss for fighting large enemies and it did definitly thoroughly teach me that.
From no stat leveling to leveling all your stats. * have yet to really utilize that sword because 4 stats to build up for maximum AR with how it scales just seems like it would take longer than it's worth. ๐คฃ
Is mostly just an Int/Faith weapon. The Dex/Strength returns are minimal. One part of the skill, the beam, scales with only int and the fire fan only faith. The nice thing is how many buffs you can stack on top of one another with this build: Golden Vow, Howl of Shabriri, Tera Magicka + Magic Physick + Magic Ring, Rannala Cameo, Alexander Shard, Ritual Sword. It's going to be glorious.
If you want a true 4 stat weapon than look at Rellana's Twin Blades. Same deal with the Skill, but the weapon mostly scales mostly quality (Dex and Strength evenly)
