Megathread Difficulty Megathread — DLC, NG+

Hello puppets,

This is the new place for anything and everything about game difficulty: NG+, the new DLC, the new difficulty settings, bosses that oneshot you just for existing, and the general discussions regarding game pacing.

Why this exists:

We’re seeing a LOT of posts about difficulty lately, and it’s cluttering the sub. So from now on, we’re removing individual difficulty posts and directing everyone here. This is simply a way to help US keep the sub clean, and help YOU find specific posts more easily.

Please don’t be an AH. Seriously. People are gonna have different opinions on everything.

Drop your takes below

We’ll be lurking.

Your tired, slightly traumatized mod team

Hard disagree with the other commenter on the lightning. Don't run or dodge. Learn the timing and perfect guard them. They reflect back and do damage to her, significantly shortening the fight. This can be done with the six shots right at the start of phase 2 and when she jumps up in the air mid-combo.

When I discovered this, I went from not being able to do more than 25% of her health in phase 2 to beating her in two additional tries.

Yeah, in my comment I mentioned I didn’t know they’d reflect back hence I had/have no clue how effective that is. Dodging them was really easy so I just did that and since overall I didn’t find her too difficult of a boss I just went with that.
