Better boss difficulty

[sweet hound]

Would be neat if bosses scaled more dynamically with bc levels

[grizzled slate]

yea that was part of my suggestion, they would feel more of a boss than some toy u toss aside every couple of stages

[sweet hound]

A new attack every two bcs or so would be neat

[grizzled slate]

bosses just get easier in terms of phases but not damage later on, aka conj summoning his thingies twice instead of thrice or hotk summoning his minions once or twice

[sweet hound]

I don't know how easily improved ai would be able to be implemented, but harder patterns would be neat

[grizzled slate]

adaptive bosses

[sweet hound]

like the modded hotk double dash

[grizzled slate]

they adapt to the player to prevent easy cheese but also make the fight interesting

[hot niche]

Isn't HotK summoning less actually make him harder?

[sweet hound]

It doesn't really make a difference

[hot niche]

His choices for minions is really crappy

[grizzled slate]

i'd rather not say much

it makes it worse

since u can easily get back stabbed by one of them

like the the purple orb and the bomber one

they can easily hit u if u dont pay attention to them at all

[hot niche]

Well, more summonings means more window to drink flask safely

[grizzled slate]

for me, right after he does his dash its a perfect time

[hot niche]

Even on 5BSC, he still uses mobs long replaced by stronger variants

But yeah we are getting a bit offtrack

[grizzled slate]

my main problem is, i've played one game that has difficulty that makes bosses more interesting

[hot niche]

Yes, more attack variants instead of just more stats sounds good

[grizzled slate]

but dead cells did that so perfectly BUT it made bosses more of a pushover

its like yea bosses get tougher but not harder to read

[half drift]

if you're playing survival that's a buff to conji

i love leaving crypt with more health than i entered

[spiral rivet]

I think just slowly adding modified bosses to BCs should be enough

Start from tier 1 boss up to tier 3

[hot niche]

So like Extreme Measures of Hades?

[spiral rivet]

Exactly

[trim fossil]

5bc servants always being modified

[hot niche]

That does sound better, instead of adding little by litte on every boss every new difficulty

I was typing an essay but got lazy halfway

Moreover, I guess I'm also not a veteran yet so if I go in detail I might just get some ideas about the game wrong

[grizzled slate]

this is a good example tbh

instead of just making the boss harder in terms of stats, add more moves and even possibly a new phase

[wispy thistle]

the most we have of that rn is just bosses skipping the early phases

[dense zenith]

if they're gonna do that, they'll have to balance the damn bosses first.

[spiral rivet]

True, otherwise these problems will mutate out of the boss rush and that's gonna be a bigger problem

[main tinsel]

i don’t want to to a 5bc run and have to fight modified conjuntivius ok

[glad sky]

mama tick doesn't do that

[hot niche]

Then pick the bridge dude

[long berry]

For me bosses should be much harder to kill, they should deal less damage and have more pattern based attacks, that have some place to dodge

Bosses now are just a test if you can kill fast enough

[wispy thistle]

I dont feel like them doing less damage is a good idea

Maybe a slight damage buff with a good hp buff so it doesnt melt alongside what this thing suggests

[glad sky]

yeah lol

increasing the hp but then decreasing their dmg kinda cancels each other out

also all bosses have an ai you can learn

[hot niche]

The original post got deleted, maybe the OP isn't interested anymore

[grizzled slate]

I am gonna make a better one soon
