"Guido the Persistent is a pushover mirror dungeon boss."

[Ekimmak]

Guido the Persistent one-shot a sinner on the second turn. I know that I've been unlucky this run and had everyone at a bit lower level than usual, but I don't think he needs to be tuned any stronger when his numbers can go that high. Especially with the defensive skill changes that forced that engagement.

[Admod, the Equivocal]

I'm still not sure if he's dead.

[Ekimmak]

Mainly made this post because I remember someone saying that it's a joke to face just him, and not him alongside some goons.

I just sort of sat there in shock after seeing how quickly he deleted over 100 HP. I beat him, yeah, but being able to one-round people immediately sounds like what people were complaining about the non-dungeon boss of chapter 2.

Jeez, that must've been some spectacularly bad RNG. Must've been a sight to behold, like winning the lottery, but in reverse!

Well, atleast the odds of him doing notable damage is still low, even if it's never zero. Persistent indeed. Haunting even our dreams, nightmares and Mirror Dungeon runs. WILL HE EVER STOP!?

[Ekimmak]

I had to trail through a lot of healing events to make up for losing a lot of fights and getting low on HP. So my levels were a bit lower than needed.
And probably hit my sinner in their fatal weakness. But ... it's still a significant deletion of a character.

You can just restart the fight if you have so bad rng.

[Reptiloid]

Must've been some bad rng. Considering that he spawns alone at the stage 3, my dudes usually jsut beait him into a pulp first two turns. I'd like PM to give him some hammer imquisitors at least 2 of them, to make the fight more interesting.

RNG gon' RNG. I literally just got Guido, and by the start of turn 3 he'd been bodied into 46 HP and Stagger+.

[SpearOfLies]

Fun fact: One of elite fight in stage 3 is Guido + 1 goon.

There also one version of him as final boss + 3 goon, basically final wave of 3-18

We must live in alternate universes, Guido has only a few attacks, the attacks have only a few coins, it most definitely CANNOT clash against EGOs, and is basically a sack of hp.
Everyone at 'a bit lower level' in MD isnt small either, 5 levels for each character per level up so you were missing 10-15 levels at least. 5 levels is basically a +1 on your clash because every 5 atk over your opponent gives you an additional power...most skills average out at around 6 or 7 power before modifiers so +1 power is actually a BIG deal.

ok i throw up my hands because i have NO CLUE how you are playing MD but i literally grab 3 uptie-3s at the start and then just pick whatever uptie-3s i am offered and then click 'win rate' for every battle and i have never lost an MD. Losing a BUNCH of fights? The default characters on 'win rate' are enough to win basically EVERY fight, MD is not difficult it is just time consuming.

You'd be amazed at how much health you can lose from a bad clash. Sure, it doesn't seem like you're in danger, but when they hit you with the physical weakness AND the sin weakness at the same time? Flipping heads on all the attacks? Before getting enough levels to beef your character out?

That stings. And it will continue to sting until you either get a healing EGO gift, or pass through a healing event, because levelling up will keep you proportionally in range of stagger.

All cards on the table, it was Sinclair. Sinclair did not have his EGO ready, so I legit had the choice of "basic attack that can't win, and advanced attack that really can't win".
