Proof of Concept against Sir Scar Crow

[night pond]

Just a simple Proof of Concept to show that CERTAIN mythic bosses are...cheeseable.
Punching with FOATF to speed things up, but it will eventually die....by itself. Next goal - To do this while not being there!

[gilded escarp]

First submission 😭

[night pond]

And it was just a meme fight lmao

[gilded escarp]

XD

[night pond]

I've managed to kill it while not being "there", but it took over 10 mins

Probably due to poison, I'm not sure the statues actually did any work lmao

[gilded escarp]

xD

[night pond]

Also, it was a Mythic 10 sir scar crow, if that actually matters

[gilded escarp]

Mine takes over 10 mins too

LOL

[tender lichen]

very good proof of concept, luckily by v4.0 this will not be possible due to instanced boss fights. I agree that letting players choose where to spawn the bosses is a really risky move from my part but I just didn't have the time then to make fights instanced

[night pond]

I will defo be working to see if it's breakable once it's out - even if it means bringing around create minecart contraptions, or a backpack for Schematicannon to build, or building wand + Vector Plates, or heck, 2 cobblestone and a dream! Or a pickaxe and hope to make a 2x1 tunnel before the boss hits me lmao

[shy cobalt]

Afaik none of those will be usable at all with the new mythics system

[night pond]

😮
I will figure something out when I see what it restricts

Cheesing bosses is always a key thing to figure out

[hushed widget]

i personally don't think cheesing bosses is a key thing to figure out lol, maybe for devs to try and stop a boss from being cheesed sure, but it's way better to not cheese bosses, there's a lot more benefits

[quartz niche]

solution: disconnect from the main point of the modpack so hard that you essentially never touch the main questline unless you have to

[static shell]

Doesnt really work when you cant place or break blocks

Bring all the contraptions you want, sucks if u cant place em

[night pond]

That's the point of this - trying to figure out how to cheese the boss within the confines of the system.

It's like how you can cheese Concierge by using Levitation Shot enchant on any ranged weapon - he doesn't have a way to do long enough range to hit you...

[hushed widget]

levitation shot is planned to be disabled lol

[static shell]

Just do the boss

[night pond]

But I don't wanna do the bosses legit, I wanna bully them...with funny stuff

[static shell]

Very lame

[gilded escarp]

Valid playstyle

[night pond]

You may find it lame, but to me, I've killed all these guys multiple times, and at least once each the legit way; I'd like to find something new while fighting them! Even if it means I use Mana Blasters or create deployers (and swords) or whatever.

[static shell]

Finding a funny way to kill a boss like killing it with a matter cannon is nice and i heaviky encourage that stuff, thats why most things i do have semi hidden things

(Soon today)

[shy cobalt]

there's a difference between finding fun creative ways of killilng a boss, and finding ways that completely nullify the boss in an uninteractive way and spreading said information

[static shell]

But straight up cheesing a boss by digging below it is cheao and lame

Cheap

Like im all for gimmicks

Still waiting for the bee stinger mcdw build

[shy cobalt]

i mean literally two posts below yours is someone fighting and beating the seasonal boss with no armor

[static shell]

More of a challenge than a gimmick imo tho

[shy cobalt]

nah just wait for my farmers delight knife build to get the end's delight items from the dragon 🔥

[static shell]

Didnt it get expanded to axes too

[shy cobalt]

no idea i got them from killing it with a hammer tho 💀

hammer, knife, same difference right?

[static shell]

Man stabbed with hammer in london

[shy cobalt]

my point was moreso the "fun creative/trying something new" ways of fighting them

[static shell]

True

Naked methhead fotf build
