The fight changes depending on time played. I'm not 100% sure of any details beyond that, though.

Probably not. I don't think there are any cheats to fly in ST.

Well we can hack the game.

The shield may be used for the achievements.

ooh that's great! Thanks!@@almar9738

I still have my save before entering Void, so here it is. Cunes 33/99 Items 42/265 Creatures 12/630 Time 1 : 40 And for the areas... Hostile Rock Cavern 16% Ashen Cavern 12% White Rain Area 9% Worship Domain 12% Dream Domain 25% Screeching Area 5% Gate of the Dead 4%

Sorc can kill him much faster with holy focused bolt. Here I was mostly using skills that are like 60% effective, so it took a while.

Thanks for the reply. :) Yes, that was what looked like my best option but still didn't seem to do much damage. I am using the Hallowed Dragon, not sure if I have found the stuff to rarify it yet but I don't think it's Gold. I was hoping for something better but looks like there's no quick & easy way, I'm going to have to learn the fight lol.@@almar9738

For Mother? Hit her torso. Jump and attack just as she starts to float down, like at 42:45 If she floats to one side, you can get behind and attack during the swooping move easily.

@@almar9738 Thanks. I managed to beat her before you replied. Her tail's hitbox legitimately makes it the hardest part of the fight.

Awakened key sword and flail whip, which I think is what you meant, both do 10 damage when boosted. The key sword is slightly faster, while the whip has a backswing. Which is better depends on situation.

I think it also has something to do with not picking up that item that gives weapons an afterimage, something about it fucks up the DPS

Nope, definitely not killing everything on each map. Like you said, it isn't worth it. 100% creature log means killing at least one of each creature.

@@almar9738 Ah, that's what it meant. Probably for the better.

If you put your “strength stat +” weapon on slot below the one you attacking with you get the perm. buff on that stat and every other it does. That thing + same with both shield slots + gauntlet and helm “strength +” and you basically can : One shot everything in a whole human world and first half of the earth world and save your durability until you’ll get enough weapons Comfortably go through fire world Survive the acid BS in water world Find Disguise and kill it with its jesters in one go forget about repairing in the end game That of course if you clean the areas at least 70%

Sort of. I chose to grab certain items if I thought it was appropriate for certain points in progression, like something a blind player may have at that point. Sometimes I put things off until later based on preference, like the flail (yep, I did get it) and angel shield after Mushussu.

@@almar9738 Huh, interesting approach. Personally, I find later playthroughs much more fun if I try to see how early I can get items, and/or assign some interesting restriction/challenge that forces me to get creative. For instance, how much of the game can I finish without collecting the Grail (surprisingly, almost all of it), or how far can I get before I'm forced to beat an ankh boss?

Only need a certain physical/magic level to use the non-generic sword magic. IIRC for Moonlight Sword, you need 70/70, which is why I used the power seed.

All the whips (and all sub-weapons) do reduced damage to Tai Sui, so I chose the axe for best range and damage.

Yeah, chain whip is a viable option, but it does specifically deal _reduced damage_ to Tai Sui, indicated by him turning blue instead of red. It also doesn't trigger him to actually attack you with his eyes, so beating him with an "alternate main weapon" (his weakness) also makes for a more impressive hitless showing (while possibly actually making the challenge easier because his eyes stop showering randomly out when he attacks).

I played this on PCSX2 Nightly - v1.7.3738, which is pretty old now.

@@almar9738 Thank you, I have been dying to play this again

Death can't detect you easily if you avoid sprinting and put away the lantern.

@@almar9738 thank you so much

I think the intention was to see if it helped keep Death in the corner, or if it could be guided into a specific place.

Better question would be "who does this at all?"

@@almar9738 you can’t exactly tell me how to articulate a sentence lol You get better rewards for fighting the Ur Dragon online

@@solitudeguard5688 You misunderstand. I'm saying that the Ur-Dragon isn't very interesting to fight. Also, may as well go to BBI for better rewards.

Equip two Vandal Rings and use throwblasts whilst undetected.

@@almar9738 throwblast rings + undetected Assassin Augment, got it. Thanks mate

@@PEDBRA No augment sorry, I meant you need to avoid being spotted, otherwise he'll try to flee after you take off around one health bar.

@@almar9738 ooohhhh okok, yeah that makes sense. I've never really done any stealth stuff in DD so I'll have to read about that

Nah, lantern is only for darker areas, besides it would also ruin stealth.

@@almar9738 nah

@@solitudeguard5688 u a pawsy

Most important gear I used: Goldforged Sanguine Stalk, Adept's Hat, Cursed King's Belt, Barbed Nails, Staff-Bearer's Band (Ingle/Brontide) Augments: Emphasis, Conservation, Ferocity, Articulacy, Acuity, Attunement

That's news to me. Do you happen to have any videos you can share to back up those claims?

@@almar9738 No. Problem is that i don't know what abilities you are using during those fights, because i fought every boss i unlocked immediately and i don't have chain whip for example like you do and i don't know if you have speed boost or hit box improvement as well if they exist. With Sakit for example, you ether do a high jump once, hit 3 times and that's it, or you do low jump hit 2 times each and run, but what you showed in your video is not an option. At least you should call it any% boss fights because you are not suppose to have all those mid or endgame weapons or abilities that you are using to fight like 2nd boss in the game.

@@BoBalance If you can't hit it as much as I do, then you are not timing your strikes correctly or you didn't buy Hermes' Boots (which allows you to get into position quickly) from the shop in MotG. You can get these items I use earlier, they are not even midgame.

@@almar9738 I know about timing and boots. You think he is beatable on hard with regular whip without knowing that!

@@BoBalance Yes, of course? It's just a matter of patience.

Basically throwblast is a vocation

Yeah, but also because Lassitude slows the enemy down as long as they remain within the AoE.
