Ok I have revisited Flamelurker and he is complete rear end. The cues and animations don't match the actual attack and everything he does seems random...it totally flies in the face of everything the souls series does. gently caress this human being.

He's good but as the smart analytic gamer who wants to destroy every boss with logic, he's tough to deal with. I dealt with him by back rolling from every attack, and only getting one guaranteed hit at minimum, because all of his attacks can randomly have an AoE knockback. I now have the BBS and it more than doubled my damage be grow my build has been done, and will effortlessly destroy the rest of the game hopefully.

Actually a lot of the demons bosses suck rear end, but at the time they felt awesome! Because I was dying, in a modern video game! But after 100 hours of Bloodborne where the bosses are toe to toe death matches, involving skill and parrying and reaction, and going back to demons to die in one shot to an off screen dragon punch with a hitbox twice the size of its fist...drat.

I'm starting to sadly realize that demons is going to end up being forgettable rear end in history...that's hosed up.

the random iframes are really what kill me. like with no loving rhyme or reason youll clearly hit him and it just kind of clips through him and does nothing. speedrunners who abuse magic, specifically homing soul spear could rant for hours about how bullshit flamelurker is because youll hit him dead-on with a spear and he just takes 0 damage whenever he feels like it

it's also AIDSy crap like 2-3 and 5-3 which just have boring designs, with lots of waiting around. And pure counter bosses like 4-2 which essentially require certain items.

It's a shame the boss design are lackluster in demons, since i don't think the level design has ever been topped since

another good thief's ring use is in 4-2, makes it so you're out of range of the manta attacks and gives you some more breathing room on those little paths with the skeles
