the Lamenter boss is the worst boss fight design I have ever seen.

[(☞ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)☞]

If you don't have a dex build or something with huge AOE, the entire fight is basically RNG with that crap instakill attack.

He has an insta-kill attack? I just killed all his clones.

The wiki states: Lamenter has a unique one-shot kill debuff mechanic that must be managed throughout the fight. During the clone phase, when Lamenter unsummons the clones at the end of each phase, you will gain a stack of a debuff for every clone that was still alive at the end of the phase. The number of stacks you have is displayed as a ring around your character. If the number of stacks reaches 7(?) during the fight, you instantly die. The stacks do not expire. It is therefore important to kill as many clones as possible during the clone phase rather than focusing on the real Lamenter.

So yeah, just kill his clones fast.

yes, which is the annoyance about it as my build was greatshield and stitcher which only do one enemy at a time and slowly.

Toss the greatshield for that one. He does low damage. Just two hand and dodge. He has no endless combos or stupidly damaging attacks. It’s a gimmick fight.

I didnt even knew he had an insta kill move, i just wiped the floor with him.

Well, guess its something to look out for with my other characters.

[Agoraphobic Meep]

IDK I just smacked the ♥♥♥♥ out of him and he kinda fell over.

Pinwheel looking ass

[guts' theme (Cut & Looped)]

I didn't even know he had that lol. I just hit him and his clones with my hammer.

[Amanita]

lol he can summon clones? Didn't know that,boss died in 10 seconds on gargoyle twinblade build.

[Confusia]

lol u get a debuff? i just ran through the clones and backstabed him lol

[Jlane409]

I got lucky on that fight, still had my Sacred Relic sword equiped from farming and one Wave of Gold and they just vanished.

[TyresTyco]

I like it. Something different for once. A gimmick fight done well that can also just be brute forced.

[Dedut]

i can't wait to see her suffering at the final boss

[Darkstorm]

For me he was easy, I used maliketh's black blade, I think it applied debuff to him, visual particles, which his clones didn't have XD

Don't know who this "her" is you speak of, but it took me less tried with my build to beat the final boss than it did with this one.

[BingusDingus]

? The fight was easy for me, you just run around dash attacking the clones until there's none left. Did it the second time because the first time i ignored the clones and died.
