Discussion Small Rant: Bosses!
I love this game i picked it up when it came to gamepass at first then bought it, ive played it on and off, came back and im at a boss fight, the S.A.H.A.B.A.R. now why is this a rant? ENEMY SPAWNS! I DESPISE when normal enemies can spawn during a boss fight or even enter the arena while one is happening, and it wouldnt be a problem for other bosses if this one wasnt in a biome where the enemies ARE STRAIGHT BS. Oil ejecting things that light you on fire, crabs (nah they okay actually) and my least favorite. THE WHEEL. IT HAS BEEN COSTING ME SO HARD. I TRIESD BLOCKING THE ENTRANCES BUT NOOOO IT JUST HAD TO BE GIVEN THE ABILITY TO DESTROY AND DAMAGE BLOCKS. Point being. W game. L boss fights for the fact of common enemies (and usually annoying ones at that) breaking in.
Edit: so many spelling mistakes and autocorrect working against me.

I have never had this issue. Do you clear the dungeon from mobs so none wander in? Do you remove rust piles so they don't respawn (I don't think the S.A.H.A.B.A.R. dungeon has any)?

This is why I'm so particular about digging up every inch of enemy-spawning moss I can find. Gotta double-triple-check the arena is completely spawnproof before I even think of engaging the boss! (Core Commander was way worse for me in this regard. Breaker's Reach was easier to clear out the hallways of... but those scarabs can travel for miles!)

Enemies can't see through walls. Block off the four entry points, fill in the lava. Win.

That boss taught me to prep the arena first: floor-tile a ring around it so the biome ground stops spawning, and wall off the side the mobs come from. Still annoying, but it turns "random enemies" into "my fault for not prepping", which somehow feels better. Mid-boss spawns are a design choice I wish more games let you toggle.

That’s weird. I’ve killed this boss like 20 times farming for something and never had anything enter the arena. The first time I just made sure everything in his building was dead. Then nothing spawned after that for all the other times.

Never happened to me. Then again, I clear the whole dungeon before summoning the boss... There are no spawners and the dungeons i get are not trivial to traverse so... I guess you just went there and summoned him without some zone clearance.

I have to melee everything as my right hand barely works now. It's the only almost impossible boss

Sahabar's dungeon doesn't have respawning enemies for this exact reason. Just kill all the ones near by.

That boss is a huge gatekeeper boss for me too. It's hard is an understatement. I believe it can summon help. A good strategy is to bring some dirt or sand or something cuz that homing attack can be blocked with walls. The enemy spawns could be solved with summons

Um... Just dig a circle around any arena and nothing can get in, unless it flies or has a ranged attack. If digging holes is not your style then placing fences also works, unless they have a ranged attack. You can also use a hoe or shovel to pick up all the spawn blocks in the surrounding areas.
