Wise-Voice is just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ through and through.
So, let's see ...
  • The camera is the biggest killer of that fight.
  • Because of the aforementioned awful camera, you miss many cues (probably) to dodge his attacks while you hammer his right paw.
  • There are invisible walls around a good chunk of the arena. (Which I understood only after dying many times dodging in an otherwise apparently safe area, only to stand in place and die.)
  • His grab has a pretty annoying timing. You can't dodge at the start of the attack but only at the frame you see the paws go down.
  • His range yellow beam is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥. No real signal to dodge it and if you manage to get below him ... well pray the camera doesn't do a 180 right at that moment and kill you.

That's about it.

His ground-grid attack is the only one that gives you one chance to avoid damage with a pretty clear signal: don't stand on the line when it goes off.


This is the first boss that'll take me more than 6 tries. (I'm at 6 right now and I'm taking a break.)

edit:
Got it.
First I've done Lotus-Vision found while exploring the area.
Then I've respecced to put more into defense and lighting defense (not sure it helped) and I've increased my mana.
Then I went in with more freezes available and was able to stagger it for long enough to down it.
Seven tries in total, I'm kind of sad I've broken the previous "six" limit for all previous bosses.

The "queen" after him was easy enough to go down with my first attempt but the "Cyan Loong" will require a bit more effort. ^_^

I thought Captain Wise-Voice wasn't too bad honestly, kind of cool. Captain Lotus-Vision on the other hand...

I beat this boss on my first attempt. Stayed on top of that leg as long as I could. When he dropped. I used the Pluck of Many. Depending on what stance you've built into ( I use smash? ) could also be a difference. I was doing over 1000 damage at times, also used one of those tiger enhanced damage pills.
When he goes into that laser light show. I clicked off R3 and would dodge each time while slowly adjusting my camera. Try and hit him with immobilize and just stay on that leg building focus then hammering him with it. I have a video of that fight. I should upload it.

Lotus-vision got down with my first attempt.
He had no BS move nor invisible walls preventing dodges.

That's basically what I'm doing. But the grabs and the invisible walls are killing me.

Well, were: I got it on my next attempt.

I also hated this boss with an burning, arduous vehemency.

Took it on my second attempt though, but it was not fun AT ALL.

I hated every mechanic, and the aoe stuff lasts way too long, you run out of all stamina basically, running around jumping out of the way for all of that stuff...

Now I am stuck on Cyan Loong...

Kinda raging now. lol

The invisible walls was the worst part for me. Even worse than the awful camera.
I'm on Cyan Loong too. Only tried a couple of times. Seems doable but unforgiving given how hard he hits.

There is a little trick that helps with most bosses. Start with a heavy hit to stagger, do the big head slam, freeze and then summon monkeys, then go back and charge a heavy attack. Then its basically a light combo until you have a focus point and then mix combos.
When the boss does his mega attack, transform to absorb the damage.
This works against most bosses but every boss has a differnt timing.
Important note: bosses change phases regardless of hp, this is most obvious with cyan long as it can charge its blade at 75% hp or 25% hp

Quite honestly the worst designed boss fight in the game so far in my opinion. Every other boss was hard but fair and actually pretty fun. This guy was straight ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ the entire time.

Gotta disagree. It just has good tracking on the ranged attack and a couple AoEs.

This boss is well designed, just requires a different approach to many of the more in-your-face bosses.

Disagree?
The huge invisible walls are easily verifiable: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3318594567

As for the camera, it's not exactly a point of discussion either.

He obviously disagrees with your point about the boss being BS.

He didn't say there's no invisible walls.

The technical issues are the main reason of it being BS.
