eldritch outlook purple tentacle attack feels unfair

[dense spear]

i just wish it had a clear indicator of when itll actually shoot like tna watched, it feels like the only way to dodge it is to spam movement the entire time its active

[vapid bone]

sound cue

[random talon]

it’s got a visual and sound cue

last time i played it

if anything i feel like it should be able to aim vertically too since acro can kinda just ignore it

[dense spear]

i swear ive never heard the sound queue

[dusk seal]

Doesn't that one have like the clearest indicator of any attack in the whole fight

[gritty crown]

🐙

[spring copper]

actually i think maybe the attack that says "EYES ARE APPROACHING FROM THE BACK OF THE ARENA" takes the cake here

[dusk seal]

fair

[frank vessel]

yeah, wretches are a little bit more indicative but the sound and animation cue for it winding up the laser is suuuuuper obvious

[dense spear]

every time ive done it ive just not been able to tell when its actually gonna shoot in the few seconds after the purple circle shows up 😭 ig my sounds are too quiet my bad

[random sun]

the laser is kinda bullshit yeah, you basically just have to ignore it because its practically undodgeable mechanics and barely present cues make it not worth paying attention

[wild bloom]

jus get more ehp twin

[wheat swallow]

Am I missing something

The Eye always just shoots where you were standing a moment ago

I can confirm this, ran EO a couple times recently and I can very much consistently avoid the laser

(My only criticism/ suggestion is that The Eye’s bullseye icon should look in the direction where it’s going to fire rather than straight forward)

[brisk sigil]

this is hard copium

[wheat swallow]

I really want to film myself just avoiding this attack in EO but I won’t be on my PC for like the next 8-10 hours or so

[stark thunder]

no? it's perfectly doable with poor mobility

especially if you're playing as something like Acolyte, you've gotta position yourself

The Eye is very much a "gotta position yourself" boss

[frank vessel]

whaaaat

[brisk sigil]

yeah i have no idea what he's having but i want some

[brisk sigil]

yea like this is so telegraphed what

also that audio blew out my eardrums twelve times over holy

[vapid bone]

oh sorry i was probably playing wynn while the laptop is around 50cm away from me

[brisk sigil]

ur good lmao

[random sun]

I just played it today and have never really been able to avoid it

[vapid bone]

practice more ig

use morph, it has decent ehp

[random sun]

nah this is just unusually hard

[random sun]

it's not like it's making the actual fight super hard or anything, it's just annoying design

(also morph )

[vapid bone]

idk have you seen tna watched and tcc's laser beam

[random sun]

those are trivial

dying to watched is a pure screwup scenario, never happens unless you just make a huge mistake or get bit by lag/etc.

laser is more threatening but still well-balanced (I shouldn't have called it trivial, watched is trivial to the point that it probably should not even exist, but I think tcc laser is well-done)

[vapid bone]

then ig just practice more, you'll know when the eye is about to shoot the beam like watched

[random sun]

the eye is just not as well-designed as a lot of other stuff

across the board awkward attacks

[gritty crown]

I love the eye I will romance him

[frigid turret]

"I wish the most choreographed, dodgeable attack in the fight was more obvious"

[wheat swallow]

Walk in a single direction simulator

[wheat swallow]

Dang someone beat me to it

.

Anyways look I get people's complains of Wynncraft boss attacks being relatively hard and obscure to notice a lot of the time but you guys could not have picked the single most obvious telegraphed attack in the entire game

The only thing I'm accepting in regards to the actual attack itself (after the telegraph) is that The Eye does actually falsely indicate where it's aiming at

Because the pink retinal bullseye circle is locked forward when the actual aiming direction is just... where the player is a split second ago

For that one it is kinda poor telegraphing so I'll give y'all that

But surely where it aims is apparent after the first time, no?

Idk how someone consistently fails at laser

[dense spear]

yes 🥺

[frigid turret]

~4s of it not doing other attacks and being covered in a giant purple sigil isn't enough?

[dense spear]

i made the post cause i didnt know there was a sound queue for when it actually shoots after the sigil appears

i now know theres a sound queue, this post doesnt matter 😭

i was wrong

formal appology to the constructive feedback community

[steel burrow]

I'll add a text countdown in the center of your screen so you can dodge it better

[dense spear]

Thank u pookie

[wheat swallow]

Do we need a countdown

Actually I do want to suggest that the bullseye actually aim at where it’s going to fire that’ll be nice

(And and/ or readd the line of telegraph from the old laser)

[wheat swallow]

I play with 0 volume, the sound cue really isn’t a requirement to dodge the thing

[steel burrow]

yes, and the sound warning should be 10x louder

and add 2 extra seconds of coutdown lol

[steel burrow]

that is possible but frankly very annoying to setup

and I am not supposed to be working on very low priority changes

also it doesnt hit in the air cuz it would imo be too easy to bait it up in the air where it is no threat to most classes

and instead just have it be not much of a threat to acro

[wheat swallow]

Oh you were joking nvm
Whoops

[wheat swallow]

Maybe another time then

[steel burrow]

ye It's not impossible just too much work to justify such a small visual change rn. the model of the aim would have to be adjusted so it can mimic the eyes yaw and I suck with block bench, maybe after fruma or if i dont have as much to do

[frigid turret]

fire ragebait

I would have fallen for it if you hadn't sent more messages
