Mobility, pressure and high burst damage is key. You can lazy skate around more attacks than you think with a lighter build. Study the patterns and punish. Rinse, repeat.
Just finished the game last night and only now found out this is a hard boss. I had maxed melee and direct hit OS upgrades, the laser lance, and pile bunker so I didn't really even see much in terms of the bosses attacks. It sorta just rolled up, died, got up and died immediately again. 💀
You can try to space+boost+charge lance+space+switch to p. bunker+charge p. bunker. Do the space + assault boost as soon as the cutscene ends. You get to remove 50% of her HP in the first 3 seconds. Around 60% if you have a shotgun or right hand grenade launcher. In which case, as soon as you stagger with the lance + fire right weapon + space while switching to p. bunker + charged p. bunker her back. It will look weird but hey, it's funny hitting her with the charged pile bunker from the back and the animation hits from the bottom too 0.o
@@chromevolt5494laser lance does more damage on assault boost? i run this setup but i couldnt notice the difference here cause the action was so caotic, took me a lot of tries ngl
2:20 you know, something about the way both your supports cheer you on in this fight keeps me coming back to this vid. Idk man, something about hearing em say it reminds me to keep pressing on.
That's exactly how I beat it too, I was just getting my ass kicked while playing defensively, so I switched to using the starter melee and the laser dagger and just kept rushing him down.
1st playthrough I used dual curtis, songbird, and a laser lance. Took me 50+ tries. NG+? Melted its face off with dual gats, slammed it with a song bird, and shoved a pile through its head. Needed a shower afterwards.
Went through most of this with songbirb and gaty but having to get technical without sensory overload is rough...but ill get through it eventually, trying different things right now and tracking missles seems to be doing it for me atm but for how long is beyond me
I accidentally used the wrong weapon for my first three tries, but got pretty close. By try four I realized, switched out my dual turners for dual rantetsus, anlong with the dual missile launchers I was using, and proceeded to take the W. I decided to retry the fight with my new coral generator and the 6 shot missile launcher and S ranked it first try
I just wish they didnt overload the screen with all these effects and make him fly at mach 3. I feel like a lot of the difficulty i have is just keeping up with the boss. I orefer more methodical and slower things to give me time to process. This boss always feels like sensory overload for me.
@@ni9274 This boss can cover 500 m in less then 1 sec. It can fly 400-500 m up in the air and shoot you from there. Fastest builds not even close to this thing.
@@pc4mlc451 Im gud. I beat this game. But these are simply two different games. One game in which you fight mechs in some kind of post-apocalypse. The other is bosses from Dark Souls or Elden Ring. The gameplay is very different. What you do most of the game is useless against these bosses and you start learning how to play mechanized darsouls.
No idea why you think that. The best and most braindead build to use against it is a double gatling or Zimmerman and double stun needle on heavy legs. Just stun locks him and bursts him. Your statement is straight up incorrect.
Well got to say good job iv always have the mind set of being robust and not nimble. Iv got though the game to this point with minigun and songbird and the tankest build and no skill. But it would seem players such as you just get it and make it look so easy 😮 I'm only left wondering how long the game took you
This boss was probably the biggest wall I've had in the campaign, totaling at roughly two three hour sessions. It is one of those things you just have to keep going at it to learn the patterns until it clicks.
Im in New game++ and it took me about less than two Days to go through the two endings. Like he Said before me : it have to Click in your brain to use nimble and fast movement.
Yhea it's starting to click but the game has cheated me out of a win was using that pile driver several attempts at second stage failed to connect. Funny thing is the arena fights feel so easy did the A to s in Les that 20mins
Ibis kicked the shit out of me at least 30-40 times, until I got it. Second playthrough, im not sure if it was luck, but I got it the first try with the gatlings and needles

I loved this boss even though I found it very hard, imo the only bad part is how difficult it is to overload. Like, it is absurdly mobile and maneuverable, but at the same time nigh impossible to overload without the use of well timed RPG/Grenade Launcher shots? I still can't describe just how epic this fight is, and how beautiful the attacks are but I think they made it a bit too endurant.

Now imagine not using piledriver to remove half its hp in one attack and not using shotguns. I tried for half an hour with my rifles and missile launchers that had beaten every boss up until that point first or second try yet I stood no chance against this one. No missile hits and most shots also miss or ricochet. Swapped over to Gatlings and stun needle and beat it first try. Amazing game design.
Almost as if bosses have different strengths and weaknesses and thus certain builds are more or less effective based on aforementioned strengths and weaknesses.
I beat it, with quadlegs build laser rifle laser shotgun and laser lance with direct missile launcher, But i don't think i can beat it comfortably without the lance lol.
The fact you can do the whole game with the piledriver using this EXACT build kinda defeats your whole comment, don't you think @@iwillstealyoursweater ?
Easier done with the big ass shotgun, zimmerman I think, a normal shotgun and 2 songbirds. Assault boost, close shot to stun, songbirds for evil dmg and if shottys failt to stun. This boss needs cheese tactics and big burst dmg to beat.
On my first run it went down pretty easy to dual miniguns and dual sonbirds... But my second run is the one most proud of, with dual scudders and split launcher+scatter launcher, I kited him out from midrange and aaaalmost got no hit run. Motherfucker grazed me with his salvos in second phase few times, but hey, never used any repair kit atleast.
Malenia was easy for , this thing on the other hand : I can't believe I beat it on my 14th try it was the most clutch victory ever I had literally 1hp and killed it the moment it killed me I almost screamed
Dude watching you not get hit by red bird mode is so god damn infuriating. Ive gotten this bitch to one shot up to red bird mode almost 10 times and get obliterated by it. Good shit 🤙🤙🤙
Stay as close to him as you can. Most of his attacks can't hit you if your right there on his ass like a flea on a dog... I beat him less 2 minutes that way .
Every 60 seconds, there are pile bunkers that miss their mark. Its a tragic loss.... but you can help stop this, Raven, by simply getting gud. Oh look! 1:20 There goes another one while you're sitting there in your sewing club when you could be pouring one out for your fellow buddy who's fighting for their life right now.
Just beat this mf, it wouldve been so much more bearable of I didnt impose that stupid "beat all bosses without healing" challenge on myself. WHY AM I SUCH A MASOCHIST!
@silversnow-gamingchannel already did the challenge, had to use two stun needles for 2 of the final bosses, but that was so braindead easy it felt like cheesing. Though I could not beat those final bosses no heal without stun needle, but they were far more fun without using stun needle and not restricting myself to nit use repair kits.
@silversnow-gamingchannel stun needles are crazy, highest direct hit damage in the game, with already high damage and stagger damage too. Two needles basically shreds anything.
This is without a doubt the worst "boss" I've ever encountered in gaming history but then again this is only second (and definitely last) from soft game I'll ever own. At first these games seem like masterpieces but after a little while they becomes a repetitive mess of "SpongeBobss" after "SpongeBoss" in a never-ending repetitious cycle were the same fight is thrown at you over and over yet is only harder because each iteration of the boss comes with a bigger health bar and extra lives regenerating itself after it's been flown to bits or stabbed through the aorta! Your weapons feel completely ineffective where they felt incredibly destructive throughout the main level and sub boss fights...in Sekiro your blade goes from a razor sharp Katana to a pool noodle and in armored Core your bazooka turns into a ping pong ball shooter doing no damage even though it lands Square between the eyes of your magical opponent who at any time can kill you with one shot because it stuns your character and then hits it 11 more times before you regain control. Healing in both games is a chore because it only works with a long unbreakable animation sequence that's the cue for you to take another shot so most of the times the moment you heal you're instantly depleted again because your character simply can't move through the animation cycle Hard for all the wrong reasons from soft games are absolutely terrible after you invest your hard-earned money and a few hours into playing them, I can only assume the company's model is to create a Spam Universe around people desperately trying to seek information about how to progress in these games because boss fights are incredibly difficult unless you have the proper tools and tactics, it feels much more like you're rummaging around for a set of keys in an old dusty box than playing a video game because once you find those keys the boss fights are easy and no longer a challenge. Basically they play like a quick time event that resembles a dance more than a contest between man and machine and ultimately have no replay value because once again once you learn the ridiculous Secret the boss simply rolls over and dies... it doesn't even feel like a normal contest as you constantly chip away at the boss until you fill a ridiculous "stagger meter" and then all of a sudden the opponent stops moving and stands still letting you whack away at it for a predetermined amount of damage and then it magically snaps back to life and begins another round of attacks. These games have universally terrible hitboxes that allow the computer to kill you even when it misses and the ability to ignore your strike at any time simply by allowing the shot to pass right through the character I'll never buy another from soft game and I highly advise anyone seeking a decent experience to avoid these titles like the plauge... I can only imagine the women children and animals that were abused over young men becoming full of rage over the ridiculous and horribly frustrating experience these games represent as they desperately try to progress and get their money's worth out of a title that simply cheating to retard your progress and demands you spend most of your time getting spammed on the internet trying to figure out the ridiculous tactical required to get past the hyper annoying"spongebosses" All made even more ironic because the whole thing could be completely fixed with something as simple as a save anywhere feature but the fact that you have to start all over from the beginning every time these janky pieces of crap glitch or cheat is enough to keep me far away from any of these titles in the future
