Well, I wait for the lamiadon (bat) to attack so that I can one hit melee them. You'll have to time it perfectly tho. 

That’s fine but it’s difficult when these bastards gang up on you and start backstabbing melee attacks from behind

also irritating were 

 

bat glowing melee attack, doesn’t seem to be avoidable in any way 

 

Squid lazer attack but I found out that you can simply cancel that attack by hitting them 

 

Wait till you meet the drones :bigyellowgrin:

Easily the most annoying little shits in the game.

I'm very tired of this game for time being. I know the game has micro progression, but once you die, it feels like all the farming I did, except Ether, was useless. And not helping me to progress except the artefacts you get from the bosses. 

Even though, you can easily take shortcuts to those biomes, the game require you to farm and get stronger before jumping into those Biomes, as enemies will kill you easily if you are not farmed and equipped with good artefacts, weapons, max integrity upgrades.

Maybe I'm frustrated...but atleast rougelike games such as Hades lets you keep the weapons. This doesn't do anything. I only come back because of solid gunplay and nothing else, as I know I can't even invest the time to stretch the game in one go as there is no save or stuff like that, and don't even wanna put my ps5 on sleep while in progress.

Sorry for rant.

This is exactly what is putting me off from even trying the game. I know it's the core design, but still...

There is no progression in this game except a checkpoint. So collecting weapons and artifacts comes naturally to you per session. Everything is RNG so it depends on your luck. Once i farmed everything and posted one session could be no less than 6 hours but i got so f**king invincible that i wanted to loose some things to make it challenging. But that's just me. 

 

I should've shown my stats in my recent video. There were no artifact equipped nor had any sort of boosts. Just a little health upgrade because normal enemies gives no challenge to me anymore and i picked up Silphium (health) along the way, I have to go to these challenge rooms to enjoy my playtime. I still make silly mistakes because of my fast playstyle like falling off a cliff. 

 

I'm the one who gets little to no time to play but I've still managed to complete this.

But the most important thing you get to keep permanently are your weapon traits. 
As you keep using and leveling up the weapons, the game gets super easy and for some weapons you’ll feel OP. 
 

But the catch here is, weapons get interesting and fun only from Biome 4. 
The first act is the biggest hurdle.

I am fighting Ixion right now. This fight is bad because game tempts you to take a shortcut to the boss and not build a good build for the battle

Well feel free to take the shortcut and clear the area from behind, that is a different kind of challenge all together
