Fake End-Boss Fight is near unwinnable

[sYnapZiX]

The "final" fight against Wukong is just a cheap bs gimmick fight because he does not adhere to the rules of the fighting system.

He can chain his combos anyway he want's.
He can animation cancel all of his attacks, allowing him to dodge or counter any attack of yours.
He can use all of his skills in rapid succession without any cooldown.
His grab attacks are insanely cheap because they are not visually readable.
His second phase is even cheaper with him "disallowing" you to heal.
He can freeze you at anytime without cooldown.
His pluck of many attack is broken (sometimes it spawns 1 additional enemy, sometimes 5).

The entire fight is just pure RNG. You can't learn his patterns because he has none because of the aforementioned issues and you can't counter him correctly (especially not in his second phase) because he just does whatever he feels like and not what the entire game has learned the player so far.

i have no words for this. You win.

His grabs are mostly counters and they are 100% avoidable.

His Pluck of Many can be easily interrupted.

His "anti-heal" can be countered by healing when he isn't idling.

He definitely has fixed combos and you are able to learn them and react to them.

[Shayalala]

you can even cheese him with the thrust stance at his first stage.

Watch some youtube tutorials.

End boss fight is fine. Get better at the game, or cheese if you can't / don't want to.

i never know why people find it so surprising that boss break game mechanic, in most game i play, that is always the case, even in jrpg, that is what make them boss. this is one of the reason why when you unlock a boss as playable character, he is severely nerf as now he has to obey the game mechanic.

Now I'm interested to know how OP would hold against the final "secret boss" in the snow area. xD

What rule of fighting system?
It looks like someone has skill issue and blame the boss fight style.
If the boss fight like a dumb enemy like those in Star War Outlaws It would be terrible.

its winible
its just a pure garbo - same as a secret final boss

asians was all the time rly sucking at the end game and this bosses is the same problem
they are boring to fight
they deal insane ammount of dmg
they dont give a ♥♥♥♥ about 80% of tools that game was teaching you to use
they have INSANE hp pool
they all have good pool of *air* atacks since game that sheeps want to give GOTY have 0 counter for someone who in the scy

boring boring boring boring

♥♥♥♥♥♥ was crying that withcer 3 dont deserve goty cuz it have ♥♥♥♥ fight system but pressing x x x x for 50 hours is a top tier gameplay now



holly ♥♥♥♥ i never feel a waste of my money like

overall this game is just insane dissapoitment
less then 40% of the players finished this ♥♥♥♥

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ players for few houts on act 1 - give it a positive review and never finished game after

i feel like it will be first game that i will try to look for chears cuz i just wana beat secret boss and never touch this garbo

[sergantuss]

oh and btw not gona mention how insanly ♥♥♥♥ camera on the last bosses acts....

legit AI created game with insane overprice

[amyen]

his grabs are telegraphed, they always come after very specific things he does - like, just to mention two example, his rock-solid and nimbus flying attack

him taking your healing flask is just to screw with you, since you still get the heal. and you can avoid it by healing + dodging immediately after

not gonna bother with the other points. patience is key, as well as resolute-strikes / retrieting-strikes. if mixed with dodges you get into the similar flow as him.

i will however agree, that the camera lock-on can be very frustrating in this fight

honestly, jokes on you. if you learned nothing but doing your light-attack combo in 50 hours of playing the game, you havent understood anything about the fighting system.

im not saying that people cant dislike it. im saying you absolutely have no idea about the mechanics of the fighting system, if you truly just used the light attack combo without getting into what can actually be possible when utilizing more than just "press x x x x".

[ImMobile]

The "get better" crowd can take a ♥♥♥ up the assss this game is cheesy as f.
Horrible design.

[SmallBrainBigPP]

I really liked the last boss fight since the fight was extremely fair. You can beat it on reflexes alone. Even I managed to win first try. And when I compare it to erlang it was literally a cakewalk. So I'm genuinely surprised to read that someone struggled with one of the easiest bosses in the game and now I'm even more curious how you got past the hundred eyed daoist master which was wayyyy harder and not a optional boss like erlang

You used this boss to deal with Erlang Shen from the beginning, but he later died and became the zombie he is now. But all the skills before are in him, so he has everything you have, even more and stronger than everything you have now.
Also, emphasize one thing, this is a monkey.

I agree. the camera lock issue in this game is quite serious, especially when fighting against some large bosses.
