Let me take you for a ride.
Get a lightning weapon, also use the pillars to block his meteors. That worked for me, but yeah that fight is tedious. The boss after him though is really cool though.

Something died and gave me echoes when I was running around the abandoned workshop.

Creepy.

The bunches of bottles you can kick over in the slum at the bottom of the workshop tower is my new favorite thing in this game.

That place is creepy too though, but it doesn't seem to really go anywhere.

i feel like the strategy for logarius is to be extremely aggressive in the first phase and extremely passive in the second.

and don't miss that backstab when he powers up

if you didnt go to iosefka's clinic earlier you should do it now. if you did, and didnt kill iosefka, you should also kill her right now

pistol comes out faster and does more damage, but blunderbuss has a cone and a bigger parry window

pistol is probably better at the very beginning, you can get the other soon enough though so whatever

should I upgrade to the repeating pistol ever? does the damage really matter or is it easier to interrupt with? its literally the only thing I use pistol for

if you only care about parrying, don't use pistols.

i literally cheesed half of the bosses by using bone marrow ash + repeating pistol.

you can level bloodtinge and upgrade/gem the poo poo out of guns to get okay damage, but the repeater sucks for parries

The cannon is the only thing where the damage is meaningful but it uses half you ammo so it's still a gimmick weapon that you use for a finishing shot or a laugh

its pretty nice if you have the runes that give you bullets back when you visceral

also worth mentioning cannon goes up 20% damage per upgrade instead of 10%

The Reiterpallasch also does decent damage with its bullets, and allows you to weave gunshots into your melee combos -- a very stylish trick
