| Summary | 0010322: Bosses + crates do not mix | ||||
| Description | I think I've mentioned this before, but figured I'd best set up a mantis thing for it. Bosses and crates DO NOT MIX. Seriously. These rooms should probably be outright replaced; they're just way, way too screwy. The ones with LAVA in them arent even worth attempting. I had one just now.... *I* fired a single spell, and instantly dropped to my doom. An ammo spell. Now you might say, well, use something other than that! Except the current problem with bosses is.... nothing else can hurt them much of the time. They often fire *way* too many shots, and their constant pacing PLUS constant bullets often means there's literally no way to get on the other side of them without taking tons of damage; you either try to jump over them and fail, or you get cornered. I've found that the only honestly viable tactic against pretty much all of them is to get a powerful ammo spell like Flameout, and turn on all ammo-power boosting perks before entering a tower. Though, honestly, if I get a crate + lava room, or even sometimes a crate + water room, I'll just exit, and then go and delete the file containing the area, forcing it to regenerate as something less annoying. And it's not just the ammo spells, but the bosses *will* wreck the crates within just a couple of seconds no matter what. I dont think I've yet seen a crate boss room where many crates survive the fight.... usually, even if I literally kill the boss in 5 seconds, MOST of the crates are gone. In some situations, this means that the only way to then cross the room is to go aaaaaaaaallllllllllllllllllllll the way out, and then back IN, so the room itself resets the crates, but there is no boss since you already beat it. Considering that large, powerful spells are sort of a smart choice against such powerful foes, filling the room with easily obliterated crates as the only things to stand on doesnt really make very much sense. | ||||
