Labyrinth Cube Help?

[Bajiyeen]

i've hit this instant KO cube hell and can't escape, i've tried so hard to get all the weak points and roll for my life to get under the hollow spots and I just can't. The most i've gotten was the boss to half health and then slammed. Is anyone available to kill this thing who is really good at these while I try to just stay alive?

You don't have to roll. Just imagine that the cube is flipping in an invisible grid. Break one side of the cube, then stand in the center of the "grid" space where that broken piece will be facing down.

It's a badly designed fight, but knowing this trick makes it a lot easier.

that's fair, the problem isn't so much getting to the hollows for me it's that i'm not good at splitting focus of "hit the weak point cubes AND make sure to be on the safe square" It's skill issue on my part, that's why I was posting asking for a taxi.

Don't rob yourself of the experience and satisfaction you get when you finally beat it on your own ;) Focus on how to stay alive first. Take it slow and watch how the cubes move, it doesn't matter how many times you die, just learn the patterns and then you can start figuring out the easiest way for you to hit their weakspots while you're dancing around :) You can hit quite a few of them from where you start before you even have to move around, just avoid the first cube and incoming projectiles. Keep trying, it's what this game is all about, you can do it, don't give up :)

I for certain appreciate your belief in me and if it were another boss where I had more than one chance per error before reset I for sure would take it to heart. This guy is just very frustrating and starting back from Zero for mistepping a single time is driving my patience up a wall when I just want to get to the next world to explore. It's a fun game and this boss is a good design, I would just like to get past it and come back to it so I can experience more story at the moment

What I meant is like:

1. go through the door
2. get to the spot you know will be safe, since it is always the same
3. Shoot the sides of the cube rolling at you so that your safe spot is actually safe
4. STAY ON THAT SPOT AND DO NOT MOVE FROM IT
5. Snipe all the other cubes from that spot
6. Only move when You can't see the weak spots on other cubes from that position
7. Scope out the safe spot on the other area
8. Move over there (for me, it was just jumping into the section to the right). and make a safe spot then stand on it
9. DO NOT MOVE FROM THAT 2ND SPOT
10. Snipe that last cubes

Then just tank the projectiles and out heal them. No more instant kills. If you are fast your heals will out last the damage, It is even easier as a medic. And you don't have to worry about being one shotted at all.

And NO!!!, this boss is not good design.

the fight isn't hard, it isn't poorly designed. the floating cube right in front of the arena that grabs your attention first immediately has a glowing weakspot intended to make you shoot it, so you discover the broken weak spots make holes in the cube. it took me all of 10 seconds to realize I could dodge the cube by standing in the path of one of the broken walls of a cube and survive. it is by far the easiest boss in this game imho

Easy =/= well-designed
