Lady Ethereal Boss Fight in Nine Sols (No Damage)

Defeating Lady Ethereal without taking damage. This one felt a little slower or playing more of a passive role waiting for Lady Ethereal to complete attacks so I feel like I didn't do this as well damage-wise as I might have. In a way it reminds me of Nightmare King Grimm since it's learning how to deal with X attacks but then having it come faster from these attacks getting chained together with her clones.
Still a neat fight and the horror vibes and art were really well done.

Very impressive! I loved this boss in my first playthrough, the change in artstyle for the background is so unique! Great job in this no-hit, this was a real challenge with all her clones for me!

[@CrankyTemplar]

Thanks! I loved the shift between dream world and nightmare (and the bit of platforming leading up to the fight), plus it was neat to see them build on that initial jumpscare passing through her zone. Did you have to jump and tai chi kick her dive claw? I never could seem to get the timing right on the ground.

[@hollowcube8724]

@@CrankyTemplar I was able to get it on the ground like once if I remember correctly, but it’s timing was so difficult I just did the jump kick instead

Sometimes I return here cuz the song is just not the same without her demented laugh. Sweet dreams Lady Ethereal.

[@scuppo]

This looks epic. Could've easily been the endgame boss fight. GG memorizing all her crazy mix ups

[@CrankyTemplar]

Thanks! I guess the teleport in and do a move makes it feel even more like NKG.

[@iampingthepenguin]

probably my fav boss fight tied with Eigon. well done

[@Luffytaro167]

Wow, you're good, I've been so stuck on this woman😭

[@CrankyTemplar]

Thanks for your kind words. It took a good bit of practice to do it hitless. Best of luck beating the fight!

[@bagasek]

is there a spawning pattern in phase 2? you was hitting the real one really often.

[@CrankyTemplar]

Not really, I just happened to get lucky in that phase.

[@LostTemplars]

This fight is fun, but it goes on for way too long.

[@the_egg_]

the egg could not figure out how to dodge the attack at 2:10
the egg now knows how to dodge the attack at 2:10
thank you internet person

[@CrankyTemplar]

No problem, good luck beating the fight and finishing the game!

[@the_egg_]

@@CrankyTemplar the egg now has to kill an evil old lady
wish the egg luck (again)

The boss wouldn't be shitty if it didnt dragged for like a century

[@kyle-cs1dl]

I just beat this boss and I disagree.
You must have taken a long time in phase 3, phase 1 is pretty short and phase 2 is alright. You just have to hit the real one whose face isn't distorted and all the illusions disappear. You don't have to hit them, just parry/dodge until you see the real one. I made this mistake in my first couple tries. In standard mode too btw

[@devilfish8779]

@@kyle-cs1dl ya I did it.

[@dfjab]

Nice damage boosting. Play and upload it without turning up the damage to 300%.

[@CrankyTemplar]

Hitless fights done by others are about the same length of 3-4 minutes. If I had used story mode to give a 300% damage boost then this would have been a significantly shorter fight.
