V2 bossfight

[benvlieg]

How the hell do you kill this piece of crap? I've been stuck with his bossfight for the past hour.

Ugh, I hate this fight. V2 moves way too fast, and has too much health for its speed and agility. At the very least, I think V2 should take a health and speed nerf.

No

[benvlieg]

So after I played this game a lot and I "got gud". I can now beat V2 on both standard on violent. It turns out that V2 is really doable. It just requires strategy. What works the best for me was to use the charge shots from the slab gun and the railgun's normal fire. A point blank shot from the railgun heals you fast enough while doing a ton of damage. And sliding. A lot of sliding.

No

Yes, the nerfs are necessary. No other enemy in the game is nearly as agile or fast as V2, or is so completely unbalanced. All the other bosses were easier to hit, dodge, and see their tells. V2 is just a poorly designed boss fight, designed to be won solely through luck, and not skill.

Definitely a "git gud" problem from your side. I can beat him consistently on violent with little trouble and from what I can tell so can most of the people in the thread, even the guy who posted just before your reply even though he evidently struggled with the boss before.

So looks like you can actually beat this boss through skill/strategy.

He's not that bad. Most people seem to be able to beat the game within 10 hours or so, and there are plenty of bosses in other games I've had to spend an entire day on just to get past once. If you can't hit him just shoot your coins. If he takes some health off you pump your shotgun and hit him up close to heal.

[ReaperLord]

Finally beat V2 by relentlessly punching, using a 3 charge shotgun blast, and sliding. Hated this fight.

0/10 boss fight. I've seen better boss fights in unfair roguelike/lites.

Wack that so many people had trouble with this fight, I thought it was great. My advice would be to remember that your dash gives i-frames you can use to completely avoid attacks. Having that knowledge will make dodging much easier for you and will let you focus on your aim.

[Blitzkowicz]

The nailgun works good if you get a magnet on him, so does the heavy alternate fire for the pistol and liberal use of coins when they're off CD. Just dodge at the right times to avoid his laser attacks (which are telegraphed) and you won't take a lot of damage. I have no idea what makes him enrage, though, and he'll usually steamroll me if that happens.

I thought it was an awesome fight.

[bUyAS5]

i used the shotgun power attack to combo with the revolver one. This combo plays like quake how you make them fly into the air for a easy revolver headshot. If you do it perfectly you can combo til he drop. also remember to dodge his blue shots. if he ever enrage, you only need to hit him with a normal revolver once so he stop.

There is a column front of door I hided there

[i love having fun :)]

[THE BEST STRAT]

-railgun at fight phase beginning
- do a "railgun/ a burst of nailgun with magnet (use the burst of the variation at the end)/coin revolver" rotation
-dodge and parry, stay calm
-repeat

[Venc Ganence]

I had a hard but fair time with him on Violent, then I went down to Standard for completion and... just under a minute. It took less than 60 seconds to obliterate V2.

Marksman Revolver, Electric Railcannon, Nailgun, he's gone fast. Ricochet railcannon and revolver fire off your coins while evading, then nail him with a magnet and overload your nailgun. Maybe a point blank shotgun to heal.

I tried that but I can't hit him/her [you never know, except the dev] up close (due to his/her really really fast movement speed.) At least not enough to out heal his/her damage. Oh well, time to "Get good".

Why was it so hard for them to just say "them"
