You have no reason to ever expect that the chance would go away while still in Act 2 That's just bad design, even on a subsequent replay you probably still wouldn't find him without a guide or some serious luck --- 'Just sitting around the house tonight w my dog.

Uta 09/23/25 1:07:32 AM #274:	Alright wandered into Bilewater and immediately found ~~Twisted Bud~~ so time to go do...that. Took several tries at the GM Silk. And yeah. Not being able to fight the boss with your own silk or even tools is really difficult. If I had tools this might be more manageable, but I'm not sure I'm cut out for this otherwise. I was able to reach Phase 2 several times but usually only after being 1-2 hits from death. I feel like if I want to stand a chance of beating this I'll need to be able to beat her phase 1 hitless semi-consistently. I suppose we'll see. At least the moveset is good, but lmao am I used to Longclaw Architect's incredible hit range. Oh and, found that flea I was looking for.

Uta 09/23/25 3:50:06 AM #279:	Alright well after about another hour of trying...I definitely cannot slow down, lol. I tried that and started jobbing constantly to phase 1. It's basically muscle memory or nothing for me. That said, once I switched back to my usual strat (and remembered that Taunt is a short-lived DPS boost that I can use when she's unavailable to help make up not being able to attack her) I started consistently reaching second phase. I'd say I make Phase 2 like 80% of the time. And I get there with 2-Hits left about 60% of the time, 3 hits left 30%, and 1 hit left 10% of the time. Definitely improving in the fight. Still can't do it hitless. How long is Phase 2 again? I've gotten her as far as 1 knockdown / scream. Does she have 2 screams in the second phase? If not then I'm very close to beating her I think. Just need a few more tries. But not tonight. I'll have another go at her tomorrow and if she only has the one phase 2 scream then I've gotten her past 75% HP a few times now. Once that's done I can finish the quest and finally move on to the final act...or maybe I'll take a break because holy shit Hades II is coming out soon. ~~and it's a much easier game and I could use something comparatively relaxing yet still simulating.~~ Some observations of fight mechanics for those who follow. On extremely rare occasion she can fire horizontal and verticle blades simultaneously. She's only done this to me once in my dozens of attempts, but it was 100% undodgeable. I think this had more to do with my pushing some internal phase check and skipping a delay that normally occurs. You don't need to knock down spikes unless they're in your "turf". If you've space enough to dodge you've space enough to attack her. Only bother knocking spikes down if you're worried about hitting them. Although rare, there are some weave patterns that are undodgeable due to poor RNG (this usually happens because of a tight "box" getting overlaped with another tight box. If you have the space to choose a large box, do so. When she drops needles from above, there's a small collision error that happens near the arena's walls. Blades that spawn on or near the edge will get pushed inwards by the wall geometry. Do NOT stand near the walls when she's doing vertical blades, as sometimes they will drift into you. And finally, while it's possible to go under the swipe attack, don't. Doing so usually puts you next to the wall, and in phase 2 there's a bunch of other shit that can be going on and having the muscle memory trained for under instead of over will get you caught more often than not. Get used to jumping over like the taller horizontal blade configuration. It gives you much more opportunity to follow up whatever comes next. --- She / Her Others don't get to dictate what's normal and what isn't.

Blades that spawn on or near the edge will get pushed inwards by the wall geometry. Do NOT stand near the walls when she's doing vertical blades, as sometimes they will drift into you. And finally, while it's possible to go under the swipe attack, don't. Doing so usually puts you next to the wall, and in phase 2 there's a bunch of other shit that can be going on and having the muscle memory trained for under instead of over will get you caught more often than not. Get used to jumping over like the taller horizontal blade configuration. It gives you much more opportunity to follow up whatever comes next.</quote> ... Copied to Clipboard!

I beat her once so far and she just came to talk smack at the start of the citadel and bounced Yeah the idea is that instead of fighting her in the Deep Docks, you can use multiple means to subvert that path, and if you do, she'll show up on the path ahead of you before you enter the Citadel, but this can happen in at least three places that have been found. You don't fight. You just get similar dialogue to the first fight and she just takes off. --- CyricZ He/him http://twitch.tv/cyricz42 <cite>CyricZ posted [p:986506771] in Hollow Kni...
