The red prince... really?

[Naewyng]

This is literally the most bullsh*t boss I've ever seen in this kind of game.
Even Malenia from elden ring isn't as blatantly bullsh*t as this boss.

Wtf are you supposed to do? Play absolutely perfectly just for a mid-game boss?

Okay guys, disclaimer: he had the `Empathy` buff when we fought him, and at that point I didn't know what it does, and I thought that the boss itself (red prince) is supposed to heal when you heal.

Yeah, without the Empathy buff, this boss isn't so bad, but please take my comments with that in mind :D

what difficulty are you playing on? Remnant 1 was meant to be played on the lowest difficulty first so you can get enough gear to survive the higher difficulties. if you are playing on the highest right away you should expect that.

Veteran, second difficulty. But yeah this boss is just bullsh*t.
It's DEFINITELY not properly balanced for 3 player coop, even though it should be.

You can skip the Red Prince by offering it 3 coins that drop from the mini-boss mobs (that look like the Red Prince) you encounter in the area, although you will miss his boss weapons if you do this.

If you wanna beat him I recommend learning how to backstep dodge (press dodge button without a direction, you still get iframes) it makes the ring of flames part of the fight much easier.

How does the backstep help with the firewall? I tried it and still instakilled me xD

What exactly is wrong with this boss? He was kind of unremarkable. His weapon mod from killing is quite good though.

[Dootslayer]

Step into the middle during the firestorm and use the ring that prevents curses. The boss is easy

[Nayomix]

Don't touch that guy if your on hardcore though. When you offer the 3 coins. You will glitch your hc char and brick it

I have to stress that we're 3 people, he has stupidly big AOEs (with bad hitboxes that extend far beyond his attack animation), he heals on all our heals, if we revive somebody he heals, and his healing is also stupid, going for like 25% of his HP, he overuses the firewall attack (in our best attempt he used that sh*t literally 7 times), etc.

It's a really bad boss design, a pinnacle of just exaggerating everything and hoping it sticks :/

[Commissar]

Did in like 3 tries with my 3 man group, you just need to dodge.

[Celery]

You just need to learn to dodge.

It's definitely an "up there" boss in terms of difficulty and it doesn't offer much in the way of forgiveness.

Took me about 6 attempts solo as Gunslinger on Veteran.

He is incredibly punishing if you don't dodge well.

Comparing this fight to Malenia is absurd. This fight is nowhere near as challenging. Stay on different levels and when the prince uses fire, stand in the center. Dodge well. There are rings and amulets that'll help (if you've found them). This typed, this is one of the more challenging fights, at least at first. You can also avoid the fight, skip it until later or lower the difficulty. All the best.

Just. go into the eye of the storm. also, survive his onslaught long enough and the firestorm clears.

He doesn't glitch your character, he straight kills your character(there's a whole cut scene for the kill)

[FreeSeraphim]

I thought he was super fun...

[SirSchmoopy]

the boss is great. you're just bad. play the game solo and learn the move sets and how the mechanics work.
