Defeated Messmer with mimic (easy mode)

[Em Mim]

I just used the mimic summon and healing it from distance all the time, just watching the fight, it's funny how people complain about this boss and the mimic alone (with just massive healing) could beat it.

ok. try that on the final boss.

give your mimic meat dumpling, blessing of marika, holyproof pickled liver, and watch.

Mimic is easy mode in every boss.
You can use it on Jori and no one'll complain tho. That boss is completely busted and unfair.

I just beat this boss solo no summons no scuda blessing no micmic. And if theres one thing i have issues with is not so much the damage this boss does but rather how tanky he is.

I can do the first phase no damage but it takes so long to get to phase 2 i barely get to practice that part before getting two shotted by something. Im using a dagger and small axe and i gotta say the gaps between his attacks to hit him are absolutely minuscule. It bores my to tears to have to dodge 7 hits only yo get one or two dagger hits in between. Yes there are some rare moves of his that allow 3 hits or 4 but those are risky depending on how he lands.

My notes on this boss are if they were to patch it is to reduce the health of phase one if they can cuz that ♥♥♥♥ was putting me to sleep and slightly increase the recovery time for a couple of his attacks.

have you considered you might be better than most players and your experience is not typical of the majority of fans or players of this or potentially any game? if you're genuinely able and willing to do that, you are abnormal. in a good way, but you're not a normal person by any means. that is insanely difficult to do.

I was able to get him by go all in during the time he dissolved his snake form into human. Most of the time he just standing there leave too much opening. Keep hitting as his poise dropped and done.

Ah yeah I dont expect your average player to put up with this. I honestly dont think they should because its not all the fun tbh . I'm only doing this to have baseline idea of how they balanced it. I'm taking allot of notes on these bosses and there are allot of eyebrow raising moments in these.

Oh yeah. Good point. The snake attrack recoveries are pretty generous. I guess Id say his regular melee attacks in phase 1 could use a bit more recovery only and the other stuff are fine

This is how most people are "playing".

if you are playing with no blessing, your analysis of how tanky he is has no meaning

I guess it depends on what the devs intentions behind the scudas really are? Are they meant to be a crutch and are they entirely optional and the 0 blessing experience is what is expected or is the baseline balance designed around them ? I wish they were a bit clear about that. Because what cofuses me about that is that some of these other bosses didnt feel THAT tanky by comparison. I could kinda deal with those . Mesmer just felt expecially tanky to me. idk. I could very well be wrong

Yeah, Messmer P2 is a pushover compared to P1.

if you guys so desperate and want easy, just seek antspur rapier with poison mist and blood affinity, use it while summon mimic.
