Stage 3 Nemesis Nightmare

[Titan]

Completely unfair fight. How the ♥♥♥♥ are you meant to beat him?

Hit once and you die no matter what. No consistency in his slam moves, the timing between slams and the number of slams is completely random. No room for error at all even though his moveset has no consistency. Great boss design.

And you better don't fail Nicholai's part at the end on Inferno. Best boss ever.

How the ♥♥♥♥ can you even fail it. It's a 2 second point and click onto Nicholai.

Learn to dodge. There's a way to avoid death by 3-hit combo.
If you got hit by the first punch, then spam dodge button to avoid the second one and use that moment to use herbs.

That's completely untrue. Jill cannot dodge when she's being staggered or recovering from a hit. There is not enough time in between his slams for you to even be able to dodge if you get hit by the first one. You have to perfect dodge all of them without getting hit even once to survive.

That's what it usually is, right? Not on Inferno, even to move the aim there is more difficult.

This game was great up until reaching this point.

RE bosses have always sucked, but this is by far the worst one in the entire series. Couldn't think of a way to make an actually hard boss so they just made it utter ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥.

To be fair he's just like stage 2 but with sh**ty zombies on phase 2. Besides I like the fact that you are not dependant on your grenade launcher for this boss fight.

You're on about a different boss fight all together. That boss is still stage 2 nemesis.

Stage 3 nemesis is the final boss.

Get the S.T.A.R.S. Field Combat Manual and Both Iron Defense Coins before doing it on nightmare and inferno makes dodging way easier

Dodging is already easy. Problem is the timing for his slams and the number of slams he does is completely random, and if you get hit so much as a single time during the fight you are dead.

Say what you want, but i'm able to dodge the second hit by doing this.
I don't know why it doesn't work for you, but at that time - i carried a self defense manual as well. Perhaps this item affect my dodge window so i can dodge the 2nd hit.

I'm carrying the Stars field manual, the thing is, you literally do not have the time to do a dodge if he hits you. Jill's stagger animation after the hit cannot be cancelled and it will last for as long as it takes him to hit you again. You can't even start up a dodge.

It's 3-hit combo starting with it's left arm (on our right) goes: 1 slam, small pause, and then 2 quick slams. If you get hit by the second slam, it's followed quickly by the third and you won't be able to dodge it if you got hit, so make sure you dodge the second.

When it starts slamming with it's right arm (on our left), on Inferno anyways, it slams randomly from 4 to 8 times and it's last slam will be delayed to throw you off and make you dodge too soon. It's like to test your reflexes: have to dodge every slam, and you have to NOT dodge too soon when it's the last delayed hit.

I thought it was fun. Sure, it was frustrating for a bit, but it's like fighting a Dark Souls boss where you die in 1 hit. Have to keep retrying to learn the attack patterns and eventually win through mastery.

[Neph]

It *is* possible to dodge the second hit in that slam combo if you spam spacebar but it seems completely ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ random. Just another unfun layer to an already ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ fight.

[Griffith did nothing wrong]

You kinda just have to git gud with dodging. And use some defense coins. Source: I've beaten all difficulties with an S rank and 0 deaths.
