Kings flame fuoco is really badly designed boss

[pocbame]

He has multiple attacks which different timings, that have similar or near-identical windups. So you have to learn these by trial and error, which just feels cheap. And then in his 2nd phase, you have to stay literally right next to him, otherwise he just spams cannon shots and annihilates you, but if you stay at close range, he literally has a move that says "if I use this while youre close to me, theres literally nothing you can do to avoid it and you take 1.5 health bars of damage"

He is a very easy boss and well designed in my opinion. Especially once you figure out the trick to his fight then he is childishly easy

He's weak to electricity. Get 5 throwables and it'll eat half of his life bar.

the electric baton you get is more than enough to kill him. even without upgrades. at least that's how I did it after I noticed how bad fast weapons like daggers are in general against elites and bosses

Lol the tyrant murderer dagger ♥♥♥♥♥ elites and bosses and hard.

It is not bad against them by any means. The flame dagger is also pretty decent

nah you're just bad at the game lol

It actually blows my mind that a player who can defeat the Watchman somehow has trouble with Fuoco.

The hardest thing about him, THE hardest thing, is just getting the timing down on his overhead slams since they come down faster than you initially think.

But that's it.

not really. against normal enemies it does well but against elites and bosses it's still outperformed by heavy weapons.

Funny because i rip them very fast. Heavy weapons are heavy hitters but the tryant hits very fast and get it's crits which stack up very quickly. With a technique build it can be monstrous. Especially with its fable art.

As it was already pointed out, you are in for a nasty surprise later if you consider Fuoco unfair.

I only had problem with him transitioning to his second stage mid fight before I realized you need to stick close to him to prevent him spamming his projectile attacks. Once you nail positioning of the boss to avoid his AOE and quickly get back into his face, the boss will keel over fast. Future bosses will be very different story, I predict you will particularly "enjoy" King of Puppets, Laxasia and Nameless Puppet because they are all about fairness and happiness ever after. O_o

Git gud, honestly.

Lolno. He hops back 24/7 while spamming shots at you. I get to phase 2 undamaged and then he just starts spamming ranged projectiles and when I get close he charges the "Lol take 2 health bars and you cant dodge it" move and repeat until I'm out of pots and die

you can literally 'dodge' every one of his ranged attacks by casually walking to the side. just close the distance and his kit reverts back to mostly phase 1 until he jumps away again. which, yes, he may do a lot, or a little, depending on how he's feeling that day
the charge is annoying but if you stay agile and keep rotating around him it usually will just go right by you. or learn the timing and parry

Dude he is easy a.f. Learn his patterns and you are good to go and also level up your hp. Thats it.

Tell me you used Motivity playstyle on light weapons without telling me you did it. Salamander dagger will rekt every single carcass boss in the game and a few human ones. Tyrant hunter will destroy all of them WHEN USED PROPERLY.

"This boss is just difficult and unfair"
Dear god, Fighting the easiest boss in the game already made you give up.
Look like you won't able to imagine people who beat the game pre-patch (today patch)
