Okay, here's how
You hit their legs, jump up when they go for a stomp, run away then jump when it sets both legs on fire
Rinse and Repeat until the Golem falls on its knees
Then you've all the time in the world to slowly waddle towards its face and slam it with a weapon
Failing that, if you're feeling spicy, make some Furnace Pots and yeet them into the Main Brazier

This entire tactic goes out the window on those that have leg armor and you are "suppoused" to get high ground and use hefty pots, the problem for me for an example, the giant stays in 1 place not moving, and all he does is spamming guided flame missiles on my ass, and my hefty pots no surprise can't reach him cuz he won't ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ move

Those are a pain in particular since you need to basically weather the flame missile spam until it deigns to come over so you can force-feed it. No real counter that I found otherwise, myself: just plain old patience.

with water duh what a stupid question

i just got the first one completely on horseback.

when he stomps one leg, just jump, when you see him wind up his double jump, move away and jump the blastwave.

otherwise, stick to the legs, and eventually it's gonna hit the floor, allowing you to deal a good chunk of damage with a stab.

Yeah I have a perfect tactic now for these armored ones, It's call NoBeThere, simply leave, as they don't drop anything of interest to me so I don't need to waste my time on them.

Absolutely valid. I don't *mind* it since I think it's a fun spectacle, but I absolutely get how they'd be annoying for a lot.

I would have fought them if they weren't standing in place out of reach and spamming one attack that literally tracks you for 500m

Sounds like it's just a variation of the Fire Giant from the base game. Channel your inner chihuahua and go for the ankles.

Use the Hefty throwing pot FIRE version, throw it inside them

Can't stress enough that Torrent at full gallop and a little acrobatics with the double jump can handle the fireball swarms. It's finicky and pissy but they will eventually come to you. Honestly the physick tears so far are lackluster though, so again I can't fault you at all.

Use Torrent und Jump. If they fall down, hit there haed.

They are pretty easy to beat, just take alot of time.
