Ropalolyst fight is...
...the best boss fight we have in the game so far?

Your opinions.

Just wanted to know because i just fought it, win it (after many tries) and all the bosses i've fought so far weren't so fun as Ropalolyst.

All bosses had cool mechanics and DE was very creative in doing them (you must use your brain to fight more than just smash a button) and this one was epic too.

As a fan of 1 vs Giant Bosses games, this one was 10/10. GG DE.

The problem is that when it comes to these bosses, it's hard to balance. The Ropalolyst is cool that the damage output doesn't mean much because it's a puzzle, but the issue is that once you know what the solution is then it's a cake walk.

Personally I think that going in the direction of the plains Eidolons would be cool. Personally the shield damage mechanic is a big part of what makes that cool. The biggest issue with that is that some people struggle and others will one shot after the shields go down.

It would be nice if the next major boss that comes up disabled the mods on frames and weapons during the fight, would actually be able to make a balanced boss fight at that point.

It was cool lorewise but disappointingly easy.

Probably, I just wish every boss fight was as cinematic as this one, This and exploiter orb are a great start.

It's alright but too short. Can rush through it easily in like 3-5 minutes.

Difficult? No.

Better than most boss fights in Warframe? Yes.

Cinematic? Heck yeah.

A reference point for future bosses? Hopefully.

The only thing I dont like about it is how stupid the boss looks.
Its a featherless chicken using space-magic.
But everything else is fine/great/entertaining.

It was nice to have a new boss that was reasonably easy to farm. I do not want to see another Profit Taker fiasco in the future.

I like how it forces you to manually dodge the lasers, since not many Warframes can tank it's damage. It's a good way to force skillful play instead of outtanking and outDPSing the boss.

Similar thing with Exploiter Orb where you don't need high DPS to beat her and at the same time high DPS won't make her piss-easy, since it's all about overheating her.

I hope DE keeps making more bosses like these 2.

Press 5 and hold ctrl button. You don't take any damage.

Indeed! I felt the same way fighting it. Thankfully happy because it required skill and reflex to not be killed. (Even though i got killed lol)

Hopefully, DE will keep sending us enemies and boss fights with this mentality; skill based gameplay, rather than one OP weapon cleaning the whole map. Very fun. =)

It does slowly push you back though.

i like the rapololololyst fight.

It is so awesome that you get that cutscene on every start of the mission! After 20 of kills it still satisfy me to see this completly cool Lotus scene on start.

The even more nice thing about rapololsyt is, t hat you have to walk through a 1.5km long parcour with bad map showing to get to him.

Yes! This boss is defenetly the best!
