How long till they nerf boss 12??

If they were that quick to nerf Viper and Maluca they will for sure hammer this boss.

in fairness, Maluca was DEFINITELY a high wall, even after the nerfs. You need to learn his patterns in the 2nd part of the fight PERFECTLY or you are just boned.

As for viper... i think the main reason for nerfing that is that it is basically the "here's a boss to see if you've been paying attention so far" boss. I suppose you can't go too hard on it, or people will get discouraged.

I don't think Skalpel needs a nerf at all, and I'm not one of these elitist ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ that says all nerfs are bad. I beat Maluca pre-nerf and I was sure he'd get nerfed cus he definitely needed it. Skalpel, on the other hand, seems perfectly balanced to me. I mean, he literally kills himself in the second phase lol. You can play passively and just focus on staying alive. That, and his moves are perfectly telegraphed, except in the second phase he likes to speed things up just a bit and attack like 1/10th of a second faster than you would expect. Once you get used to that, he's not that bad at all imo.

We may think it's all nice and balanced, I loved Viper pre-nerf he and Maluca have way less going on then Skalpel and if they were that quick to respond there I think there is no shot he survives. I'm seeing people already complaining about Trokka asking for a nerf lol

I also loved the Trokka fight lol. TBF, I'm a dual wielder so maybe it's a speed thing since I rock light armor and A agility, but I found Trokka to be one of the easier ones. Maybe GS users have a much harder time, or people rocking heavy/plate armor.

I'm playing GS and it's imo the weaker of the three but it's fun as hell. Trokka was a pain in the ass the chase down with it but still a fun fight.

From what I can tell greatsword whiners just don’t want to dodge anything despite proficiency being a main scaling stat for greatsword and that’s the beginning and end of the real actual things trokka requires of greatsword users. Greatsword is not slower where it matters for trokka. The GS dash attack is the fastest dash attack in the game(shortest reach but definitely the fastest) and the dodge attack is likewise fast. Not that it matters because if you keep your distance trokka will come to you anyway.
