Mother fight is trash

[WoodyRun]

Haha get good u just suck lmaooooooooooooo

How about make a boss fair and challenging instead of full of bs. There are so many times that I just take damage and I have no idea where it comes from. I've fought this boss upwards of 20 times and I still don't know what is hitting me. It's unreal how much of a polar opposite the dogma/beast fight is in terms of being a fair challenge. If the Mother path didn't have unlocks attached to it I'd never go for it.

Also while I'm ranting about wasting money, remove jacob and esau from the game. This character does not work in this game. Period.

just get good bro.

Did you just lose and came here to complain? And dont wanna brag but I've beat mother in my first try.

[Revalopod]

it's interesting that the people who are actually good at the game are able to do mother easily.
perhaps, maybe, the boss is fair and challenging and the only reason you think otherwise is because you are not good?
Therefore the most reasonable and logical conclusion is:
Haha get good u just suck lmaooooooooooooo

Mother is a bit overtuned, but all of her attacks are learnable and consistently dodgeable.

The hardest attacks to avoid are the ones involving snake projectiles.

The easiest attacks to avoid are the knife throws (just stand in the opposite corner and slightly move up if a projectile is coming your way), the yellow lines across the screen (side step), and the charge across the screen attack (watch for the particles at the top and stand on the opposite side, then switch to the other side and finally stand at the very top or bottom of the room to avoid getting smashed).

Also don’t stand in the middle of the room after beating phase 1 (probably the least fair element in the fight, but also the most easily learned).

Just gotta git gud, y'know. :resmile:

Have you already beat delirium though? If you have you should be able to beat her/it eventually cuz delirium is harder.

I've beaten her on 7 different characters and i have vs'd her about 9 times, which means I've only died to her around 2-3 times. Seems like you're doing something wrong here.

Keep on trying :)
Her foot will stamp down when she shouts. Depending on which mum you get it is fairly ok once you know her patterns and the minions she draws.

Good luck :)
It really is worth playing more and more as once you beat the challenges you feel great!

Everything but the spin attack flooding the screen with "snake" projectiles is fair in that fight.

The reason snakes are bs is that the windup is almost nonexistent and if you find yourself not at the furthest point away from the boss you are going to get hit.

Aside from this one thing, it is a decent fight.

Uuuhh... I think OP is talking about Mother, not Mom.

Hey, I am guessing that is a new boss?
I am an experienced Isaac player but just started Repentance with a new save file. Trying to avoid new things so far.

Thanks for the clarification :)

Originally Delirium was hideous. Even after patches it sucked balls

It's not an easy fight, but it is mostly fair.
The delerium fight on the other hand is absolute ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awful trash that should have been reworked as part of the update.
Nothing screams fair and fun like having a boss telefrag you multiple times.

Still not reworked?

I wish I could beat her but every time I get to her my game crashes.
