Parting the veil pathetic boss stomp

[rob_every05]

Absolutely the most ridiculous piece of tripe this piece of garbage company has ever done.

So you are trying to kill a tormentor, solo, with scores of ads everywhere. You have upper walkways and a lower arena. Ads can jump meaning youg et very few hots on the boss, to prolong the fight of course.

So far as you get the boss to half health, every SINGLE time I have got him there as soon as you join the inner area he stomps me out of the arena. 5 sodding times now.

Why would you do this, why remove a way to get this far by using the gantries by then making it utterly impossible to use them as soon as you get to half health or close to it.

I understand it is a boss, I get it is supposed to be hard, but you giving players only ONE choice here, as soon as you join the main arena after the countdown the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ is ALREADY getting ready to ump leaving you NO TIME to avoid the stomp. I tried it earlier, I was about 20 feet anyway fro the arse and still got stomped out of the arena. This is beyond the joke guys cmon

I mean what on earth is the point in having walkways, strand balls to move to if you then basically make it a death sentence if you use the walkways?

Sometimes the things this rotten company do to falsely increase difficulty make me so damned cross you feel like just installing and moving on

The knock back combined with the suppression means you can't even *try* to save yourself, you just have to accept your fate; that fight in that arena is definitely bad.

My recommendation is to run *towards* him when he jumps, he can't stop short to hit you. Other than that, just usual tormentor strats: high damage precision weapons, single-activation supers, etc. I assume you can also co-op it, so you could bring a friend to help you through.

I don't comprehend why people get mad at this fight. Literally all tormentors act the same. I did this fight first try, just use slugs or any other good precision DPS weapon, and either keep your distance or melee the tormentors to cancel knockback.

I would love to be able to run towards the damn thing, trouble is he starts his jump before you are even in the stupid arena, so you literally cant seem to avoid it.

I think the only solution is to get into the arena before the stupid thing is half dead, so at least than you can move around and perhaps avoid the stomp

I get they want to make things hard, but this is just cheap, lazy development, lets make an enemy with a tiny crit area that can stomp you halfway across a map and then put you on a suspended arena so it makes that even easier.

Just boring, sad and rather pathetic dev work if you ask me. especially from an enemy with a interesting mechanic

Blind, freeze or suspend the tormentors.

What is good difficulty then? Bumping up HP and damage is just "bullet sponges" apparently, but arena design, unique enemy hitboxes, and aggressive enemy attack patterns are also cheap?

I would be fine if the damn thing were not already starting its dive as I ported intot he arena, that is a little bit unfair and sad i think, it is basically fiorcing you to die several times to realise that you ahve to be in the stupid arena anyway as youg et it to half health or it will just stomp you out

Just leave me cold sorry, cant be arsed with garbage like that

it may the most bs thing in the game

Crota in Nightmare Hunts is worse than Dares Crota.

Trying to go for my Harbinger seal and he casually one-shots you on Master and the swords do ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ for damage.

OP is talking about a post-campaign quest boss that is in the same arena, not the final boss from the main campaign. Calus is MUCH easier to cheese.
