Apex Slaughter Spine Ultra Hard

[Mhill]

I tried and tried to kill that Apex Slaughter Spine during "For His Amusement" mission on burning Shores. My god that had to be the toughest element of the entire game by a long shot, it took me multiple attempts over many days to finally do it. It's that tough...

So yeah, for those of you on Ultra Hard heading to Burning Shores. Best of luck. Your going to need it.

Hello, I managed to beat him thanks mainly to dodges, the zenith weapon, water, ice, explosives and shields

Minimum level 50 too

Indeed good luck to you
PS: It took me about 40 tries minimum

This is why I have an issue with higher difficulties. Its not like the game throws more problems at you, exerts your ability to multitask, use your toolset better (although that will likely be the case) it just cheats and ramps up the numbercrunching to stupid levels.

To me its just self-flagellation to attempt it.

Especially Ubisoft games I play on easy for that specific reason. Because their games are designed to quickly stack the numbers against you, so that you need to grind for upgrades, that they then sell you via microtransactions. IF you just put it on easy or normal, and dont bother upgrading, you bypass it completely lol.

Honestly, it just seems like gaslighting to me to even care about this.

The game is far too easy on lesser difficulties, my first play through was on Normal and i walked it. Up until the main boss fight, as i kinda rushed through story with no real weapon upgrading done.

Unfortunately this particular section is completely unfair on Ultra Hard, the Apex Slaughter Spine hits you with plasma when your behind a wall. Yes the plasma ignores those textures completely as if they aren't there. So does it's entire body come to think of it.

And being 1 hit killed is not fun when you have fully upgraded legendary armour and a health regen valour.
