Haunting you until no 8 arrives.

I'm still going to do it, despite how much I will hate it, because I know just as well as any of you that there is just something wrong with my brain and I've made my peace with it. I'll do the story mode re-run after, as a treat.

I regret to inform you that they'll want you to run the entire story on ultimate twice. I did it once out of curiosity and because I needed to complete my crab collection, but twice is just psychopath behavior.

Edit: the worst grind in the game is hands down fortitude crystals. I'm begging you, have I not genocided enough goblins?!

It wouldn't be so bad if Quick Quest rewards were not so garbage and the downscaling so vicious when you're above the mission level.

The fight has serious visual noise and poor color scheme choices that, particularly for people with certain kinds of color blindness, make it even more frustrating to try and parse.

Also, the constant teleporting is really miserable for any melee character who doesn't have good pursuit options. That would be less bad without the visual noise issues though.

I think it's almost a cool fight, I don't think the attacks in general or the attack patterns are bullshit as such, just the visual parsing of them. I think it's interesting that how relentless his attacks are actually makes dropping some damage (like a supplementary damage sigil) for a perfect dodge invuln extension sigil is a genuine consideration since it can help improve your uptime a lot.
