hyper light drifter walkthrough boss battle part 5

The east boss can be easily cheesed by putting him in an attack loop by walking up to him and hitting him twice, and quickly dashing down to repeat.Note: you can technically do even more damage by cooldown cancelling with the shotgun as well as plinking, but unless you’ve got robot hands, it’s probably too difficult to warrant practicing, you’ll do just fine without using both at the same time. An easier, and even more effective method is to quickly dash to his side once the fight begins, I prefer his right (your left) side, and nuzzling yourself into that corner, melee (or plink) him until he’s dead. Before fighting a boss, use the boss rush mode to practice the boss you’re about to fight, without fear of dying.He’ll just keep smacking the ground, to no avail, you’re too skilled for him. In the case of Judgement (the final boss,) use your main file, or any file where you’re right outside the chamber, to practice fighting it. Practice your cooldown cancelling with the shotgun! Effective use of this technique will allow you skip entire volleys of attacks. I recommend creating a save where you’ve gone past the opening, and you have the pistol and map.You can also plink the starting pistol to quickly kill those little floating module things he summons when he disappears. Purists would tell you that you’re technically not beating the game in one shot if you’re skipping a part of the game where it is still feasible to die, but ♥♥♥♥ that ♥♥♥♥, the opening is just a poorly veiled tutorial. You could also be a cheeky bastard and use a macro to get the purple cloak for extra stamina, I did this, and justified it because I had already done it legit in the past, but you didn’t hear it from me.You can find the file in your “Local” folder in “AppData,” it should be under the name: “HyperLight_RecordOfTheDrifter_.” Copy it, and keep it somewhere so you can replace your failed attempt saves easily. It allows you to be highly aggressive and to better position yourself quicker.

Not only that, but it has some interesting utility in a few encounters.
