The Lydusa fight is annoying

[Luno]

I doubt a post here will change anything, buuuuut you miss every shot you don't take, right?

Anyway!
What I specifically mean is phase 2, where she walls the player/s in and starts throwing walls at them. Is anyone else bored by that phase? She takes very little damage to her HP, and is just drags on. And correct me if I'm wrong, but it feels longer in boss rush, which as you might expect, feels like a drag for me.

Raw damage is not the issue in case you are wondering. My builds need to reach 1.7k minimum or I consider them not yet ready for apoc... unless it is a gimmick build.

Or am I just being impatient?

Aaaaand nevermind! The latest patch addressed Lydusa's wall phase. I even had a run in with her just yesterday, and yup. No more need for absurdly high DPS to kill her. It's still a bit of work, but nothing ridiculous.

Wall phase is boring after 1 minute but the worst part is the ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ dps check at the end. I hate glass cannon builds and love to play bruiser/tank. ofcourse I die almost everytime in apoc boss rush because she ruins 90% of my runs by showing up when I get horrendous rolls for the damage perks or shes the 15th or later boss in the list. after dealing with her bs for 2 weeks and rolling 3 garbage legendary traits on my prism, I quit the game until the next patch.

[Luno]

That. Exactly that is the other issue. I've had a few boss rushes end with her due to the inflated HP of phase 3.

Might just be me thinking, but it would probably help if the damage she took from walls being destroyed was an extra tick to her bar (like dealing x% damage rather than x damage), and the DPS check using her regular HP.

Probably won't happen anytime soon, but I can always dream, eh?

What I want to know is when did they even add this fight? I played this game back on release and didn't get slammed by a wall of a boss this early on. Did they redo the story?

She is the world boss for the 3rd variation of Yaesha added in the 2nd DLC.

So I either screwed myself by buying the DLC or got unlucky and got the variation on this playthrough that's insanely hard

Just beat her, but wow. Yeah that's crazy. Idk why they added a boss like that so early on.

Has anyone figured out how much DPS you need for DPS phase of her, in the Apocalypse Boss Rush mode? It seems way much than the normal campaign,

[Naféasonto Ku'Jashir]

Worst designed boss in the game, I agree. The second DLC was just so lazy. OTK was amazing, and the third DLC sucked as well. The best thing to come out of it was Boss Rush.

- Fixed an issue where Lydusa’s wall phase was lasting too long on higher difficulties.
Well well well. Nevermind I guess.

[Monke-Cat]

While I totally understand the frustration and Agree with what You've said I believe there's a solution and trick to this
You see lydusa is all about DPS but not as Damage Per Second but rather Damage Per Shot
You gotta use a blast weapon , a shotgun , strong bow or some sort to deal massive damage with each chance
If You do at least 1300 weakspot damage per shot in that phase You'd get pass it fairly quickly
Sometimes You might have a good dps build like a status effect or plasma cutter crit but it just drags on forever since You're not doing much damage before her face breaks in that phase

It's not easy to calculate for sure simply because of the random perks that she might get like thick skin or hearty or even a combo of them . She only switch phases based on her health percentage not raw health amount .

[Luno]

Buddy. The latest patch already took care of it. It's not just over. It's Joever. Issue with Lydusa is a matter of the past now.

[Anzaman]

Hopefully they fixed the weak spot bug on her final phase.

Was kinda annoying to die there because weak spot simply didn't show up.
