Summary | 0010595: Toad's whip attack is much too fast/strong | ||||
Description | Particularly on higher difficulties.... I suspect this one might be a bit of bad scaling a bit, but most of the time these guys are really abnormally difficult. The whip is USUALLY undodgeable; you have to already be moving when it fires, and even then, it'll still usually hit. It also blocks most player shots, AND does rather heavy damage. These guys are like the scorpions in that they're much too common for something as strong as they are. It's fine for common enemies to be strong like that, but it depends on the type of attack. The pigeons are a good example; they're very dangerous and can be one of the nastier enemies in the game, but their attack is dodgeable, so even if you get surprised by them, you still have at least some chance to react and respond. This is on Hero difficulty. | ||||

Adding a bit to this: These are usually specifically undodgeable in caves, because you often dont have space to try to be leaping as the whip comes at you, to hopefully dodge it.... and sometimes these are undodgeable simply because there's more than one. |

I have had troubles with these on normal difficulty as well, mainly because of the insane range of their whip attack - which usually resulted in me getting myself hit before I even had a chance to see a toad was around. This is especially true if meeting them in Craggy Highland areas, due to the large amount vertical travelling required here. |

* The speed of the HighlandsToad's whip has been reduced, as it was too hard to dodge before. ** Thanks to misery for pointing this out. |
