Anyone else hate door guardian?

[SigmaMale=SocialReject]

Probably the worst boss not hard just annoying

[Scraps]

What? You don't like it when you get hit, your stamina regen is nearly nullified?

[Baron01]

Door guardian is a bit intimidating but once you realize that dodge is better than guard here, you are all set to swiftly defeat him. Use weapons with higher stagger damage and charged heavy attack, which will speed up his stagger build up.

I like the boss because it is one of very few that has slow but powerful attacks that give you ample opportunity to punish them if you are positioned properly.

Not really
He is not long to dispatch.
He is a bit gimmicky

[Samseng Yik]

I am ok with the boss.
But I watch many broadcast and stream, much idiots swinging weapon on the armored leg.
Only "accidentally hit the vulnerable flesh" once in a while.
And they are still not aware, I laugh a lot

[Deathwing1306]

I don't really mind him lol

[Napalm®]

In took me embarrassingly long to figure out he's NOT TAKING DAMAGE except for his weak spots.
What really needs to be toned down tho is 3 sec on the ground without the ability to move when you get knocked down.

Yes a lot users still swinging at the armored leg.
Give me a really good laugh when they spent SO LLOONNGG effort eating durability and not causing damage, and died after a good near 10 minutes fight

The P-Organ has a move for that. Your fault that you didn't invest in it.

That is not very cordial :P

Rising Dodge is useful for certain enemies and bosses and it always give you way out of being knocked down. I would not invest into it as a priority but you should get it when approaching late game on your first playthrough, at which point you should have enough Quartz to spend 2 on this perk.

[Fineous🔥]

Yes, he totally sucks (specially in NG2 and beyond) but in the end he is little more than a annoyance. Just target the "green" leg and do your best to stay behind him, moving in circles poking the leg.

But if you are sick of him and just want to get rid of the eejit in one minute or two just bring some saw blade throwables and use fast hitting fable arts (remember you dont need stamina to use fable arts) or just anything able to hit him fast enough to stagger keeping in mind you dont need raw huge damage for that just enough impacts.

I wouldn't even call him an annoyance. Use the stagger grindstone, few heavies on leg and he's down, then just repeat. It's like a 1 min boss fight.

[Maximilion13]

he's one of those stupid annoying just time wasting bosses :D
not hard, just the fact u had to walk all the way to him again when u die, and the fact he will die in just two hits but u can't hit him unless u stagger him and the fact the map is too small and he's too big and u can't see what's going on. yeah he's so annoying but easy target

[La bendision]

Oh I hate him so much. I like the mechanic of needing to perfect parry him to deal substantial damage but his janky hitboxes and confusing animations are so stupid I hate it here.

[Nonexistinghero]

It was a bit annoying on regular NG, but on NG+ it was easily the cheapest boss I faced so far. The over 70% damage reduction from my heavy weapon means nothing, the shock makes stamina recovery very slow and the attacks hit like a truck and then some. Even the shield arm wasn't doing any crap.

Eventually resorted to using the fire arm. Already invested a decent amount of quartz into legion bar recovery and also used fire grinder upgrade. I just mostly focused on burning him and getting a few hits in here & there. That was enough to get him down twice and kick his ass.

[JP]

annoying as ♥♥♥♥ for sure. It's this games bed of chaos. Gimmicky and no challenge, just frustrating.
