Why is Viper so hard?!!!

[Ankshious]

No complaining, but that second phase caught me by surprise!

[Sey Renity ツ]

Took me like 30 attempts xD practise practise. For me First phase is harder then second one

[Cranium Salesperson]

He has been nerfed as well btw. He’s definitely the big wall of the game. But if you beat him you can 100% make it to the last boss trust me.

I'm nearing 30 attempts. I almost had him earlier!

[Hibuki]

The game is either very hard or very easy. There's no in between it seems xD
You'll either have a miserable time with bosses or it will be a cake walk...
Earlier I had to fight the spider and the first several attempts were miserable.
Then suddenly I wrecked with leftover healing items on my 5th or 6th try...

[Soulkey]

Well the good news is you get so used to his moveset that when they start to recycle him it's going to be cakewalk.

Don't give up, study the pattern and timing

For me was really hard, but Malukah was way harder. He's the only one I couldn't beat in the same game session.

Lv up your spirit it will help you a lot in almost every boss fight until towards the end game the last few bosses the boss will just 1 shot the spirit since they do so much damage even with the spirit maxed out.

I think Viper is a great boss as he kinda forces you to learn the combat mechanics and really sets you up well for the later bosses

I defeated viper and now I’m stuck on that damn moose 🤣 Keep getting him down to 1/4 but then get rinsed

I’m gonna replay the last few missions to grind up some loot and lacrima to get stronger

[Protek]

you can cheese moose a little when he jumps up go to the ladder and climb up when he jumps. Once you are on top just wait for him to climb up and then you can punish him, rinse and repeat until he burns the ground.

Healthy advise tho, this wont work on "something" later xD So better train now xD

I don't want to use spirits. I need to beat the game without summoning spirits for the achievement

Wasn't that hard for me but I see why hes annoying took me like 5 attempts

I beat him today after like 8 attempts. Thankfully his stamina sucks so you can easily break him but his katana moves are quick so it felt better to dodge instead of guarding his attacks most of the time because of the chaos status. If you're using spear moonlight dodge and phantom: Heatwave are your friends.

As for Viper it's memorizing his patterns brink guard the combo's you can and if you don't feel confident about certain attacks it's better to either guard through or get some distance between you and him.

Dev expected that most of people use the delux set so.
