Inchoate flesh too easy

[Gwumpy Fwog]

Rarely I can say this but this "boss" is stupidly easy, as in I would rather fight 2 of them than 1 collector, aoe (PD blight) wrecks the living hell out of him since its 4 ppl with 1 hp bar, scared to use an abom with rake dmg boost, guys gonna 2 shot him if he crits.

When he first came out, he was ridiculously difficult. This was pre-PROT nerf so he was basically indestructable. Add in copious damage and DOTS, he was the most formadable opponet in the game. But many patches came out since then, including the Houndmaster and PROT nerf, so he's a 3 turn kill if you spam hound's harry.

Most of the bosses are pretty easy, IMHO, especially at champion level. Usually the hard part is getting to the boss.

The only champion boss I couldn't do on my first try was the drowned Crew (he healed way to much). I just used unholy trinkets and owned him.

Seriously tho, bosses need to be a bit harder at least. Especially the siren.

Only if you leave your Occultist behind. He's the hard counter to the Prophet. Kind of like Arbalest for Swine Boss... with him, the fight is pretty trivial. Without... not so much.

That formless flesh man....bad news for my party, wiped out completely. I thought I was being a purist and refused to look at a guide before going after it. Wrong....I also had trouble with the Prince of Pork and his little boyfriend.

Everyone has since learned the secret tricks to the bosses by this point. That's why everyone wants them harder for reruns.

It's the classic Darkest Dungeon-itis. We beat it, now we want it harder. And screw anybody behind us.

Even with the Occultist these two bosses can be annoying if they keep stunning it. Wilbur can stun two per turn and so does the prophet.

Ha!

When I first did the Swine Prince in the original build his little boyfriend could chain stun your entire team and there were no diminishing returns on stuns. Quad player stun turn after turn until we all died. GG ;)

Have you ever had bad RNG with the flesh? If so, you'll regret ever saying it's easy xd. If you keep getting 2 heads/butts it's gg and there's nothing you can do. Their damage is way too high.

uhm..... i once crit a collector for 56 dmg with abom, imagine that x2, the fact that all 4 parts share hp means u can wreck him jsut as fast, PD grenades do 8 dmg per turn on top of the original dmg, charging up a hellion for mayeb 3 turns with self dmg buff with battle trance n breaktrhough will do like 80 dmg to him since it hits 3 rows for massive dmg.

The flesh heads and butts have high prot. Like 50%+ so your breaktrough does absolutely nothing. And each heads does about 20 + I believe 9 or 12 damage of bleed to each of of your front row guys. So thats like 50 damage on both of your guys. The butts does like 20 damage + 12 blight I believe on the back row guys.

So unless you can 1 or 2 turn kill them ( impossible because of the PROT), all you can do is run.
Go watch some videos on youtube if that never happened to you, you'll see how insane it gets at champion level.

blight and bleed give no ♥♥♥♥♥, and an amped abom doesn't either psyched up with MaA instructions etc.

The Drowned Crew gave me some trouble. I manage to get lucky by having my Abomination get a Virtue and crit for 78 damage.

I chugged Holy water before the Siren which I think had a big affect (can someone confirm)

The cannon was also pain if you don't kill the orange dude.

I was able to cheese my way through the Swine God and the Prophet by spamming guard on the Houndmaster.

Assume the Occultist thing has to do with the damage reduction hex?

I had a collector or 2 ♥♥♥♥ me over on a boss run more then the boss itself. Highwayman heads hit too hard and never miss for me.
