Avarice Body Slam

[Gaygunlord]

So, yeah. I had no problems whatever doding attacks in this game, but for some weird reason the Body Slam of Avarice seems undodgable.

Is this guy bugged, is this intended or is the input windows just so badly telegraphed, that I don't understand when to dodge?

Played on 1.1. Body slam is fine IMO.

He usually tosses 3 items and then slams. What you do, before he jumps, is start moving in one direction and wait for him to leap—right after that, move or dodge into the opposite direction.

The trick is to be moving in the direction you want him to go BEFORE he jumps.

thanks, but this was among the things i tried to no avail.

I found out the dodge was only a problem in his "first phase".
As soon as he picks up an item and tries to slam you the dodge works perfectly.
I beat him already. What I did was taking the first (apparently only to me inevitable slam) and get him down as quickly as possible and force him into his second phase. after that he was a breeze.
