I just finished the first really hard boss (Balteus) and I'm having a ball. Can recommend. But play it on PC with KB+M. I know it's a fromsoft game, but the KB+M controls are 10X as good as gamepad controls.
I feel like I would have beat Balteus by now if I had the game on PC instead of PS5. Even with the auto lock aiming, this asshole moves around faster than I can turn the camera with a stick, even with the camera speed at 10.
Edit: Wait... Does the PS5 version support M&KB...? 🤔 I'll have to try later when I have the chance.
That one's killing me rn on Steam Link I might need to move to the computer lol. Damn thing flies around so quick then blasts you
I beat him with a hardcore mobility and missiles build, but I've heard he's much more doable if you switch to a superheavy build of all plasma weapons (the "Meefcake" is its name in the meta). One thing I noticed is his movement habits make him pretty vulnerable to missiles, which catch up to him when he holds still.
With mouse and keyboard where you can track him well he's very fun to fight in close range since he likes to hold still for his missile volleys (you can pour in the damage while dodging), except that his ability to punish you with the bazooka means every screw-up is lethal when you're in close. And that's 10X worse when he gets his flaming sword.
I feel limited in my options because I've gotten everything I possibly can to mix up my mech at this point through the missions and the logcabin stuff, and while I do want to be a plasma goblin, I can't even use 2 plasma guns without overloading my energy, let alone adding in the shoulder cannons. :/
I only have access to two generators. And one of those is the one I started with.
I had a decent time fighting balteus but sea spider is going to make me put my controller through my TV.
Fly above him, use missiles, land only when necessary to replenish energy.
