Snake boss....

[traykey]

Poison spray attack a little O.P.

[Dead Bird]

That boss is going to get me the fainting 10 times achievement after not coming close at any other point in the game so far.

I got him with only 8 faints (on hard difficulty) :) Finally that living water found its usage.
Hint for others - prepare lots of ammo, on my first attempt I had only 15 crossbow bolts, its definitelly not enough.

I dont think that this attack is op....it's a range bossfight, so you can avoid this attack quite easy if you know how.
I'm happy they give us a reason to build and use a firearm.
It is a very intresting fight and I enjoyed it a lot.

[Arran]

Yes, I like the challenge. Once you learn how to fight him (that is avoid melee, and sprint alot) it is a good fight.
I killed him with crossbow, so gun is not needed. Maybe with flintlock it could be easier a bit as it has more damage. But musketon is still terrible weapon, and pistol is same or weaker than crossbow.

you can only take about 3 shots w/ acid spray before you die... even while healing with puma potion... so I agree w/ OP - poison spray is a little overpowered. Maybe allow 4 or 5? I don't know let me keep fighting him on different difficulty.

[Ras]

Ok, here is how I killed the Snake boss most effectively:

1 drink puma potion for unlimited stamina
2 run zig zag at snake & attack from side or behind with sabre
(if you stay close to snake, he won't spit on you)
3 rinse & repeat
4 if you get low on health (less than half) drink water of life or buffalo, but water of life is instant

I revise my statement, I think 3-4 hits with the acid until death is fine.

Can you really deal with a boss without cheesing it? I'm on VH and fainting is not an option.

I didn't faint w/ my method above.

[mcginleystuff]

where do I find a saltpeter pit??

[Gorofin]

You have to build it anywhere and feed dead animals to it.

[Arzeith-Tau]

I appreciate the challenge this boss gives, but wow the difficulty jump from the usual combat is a bit too jarring lol. I hope combat in the last continent can somewhat keep up

[Ras]

Snake boss is the hardest boss so far. Also, I wonder what the boss on Windy will be, if any.

[[AUT] Indy]

did this boss got a nerfed? Because, I had 0 problems with it, only got sprayed once, just running and shoting its head with the gun. I had much more problems with the wolf boss

You guys help a girl out here. Ive been trying every method you guys have suggested and it is just not working. Before i knew the importance of the living water i used it all up on the jaguars on copper island😳
