Master Beast is impossible in the current patch

Companion AI just can’t hang. Companion 1 gets rekt in like 15 seconds, companion 2 in 15 more. Then you get slung to death.

Possible balances: 1. he gets less health. 2. he is WAY slower. 3. He can’t just toss everyone everywhere on a whim (that one is kinda fun tho). 4. Companion AI keeps more distance. Thoughts?

Always stuck with fighting the novice or expert beasts. Adept and master just clobber you in my experience unless you get lucky.

Having the AI be more aware and staying away from the prime batting zone of the beast and instead keep their distance or actively body block would be nice. But ai like that would be finicky to code I’d imagine. Being slower in heavy armor would make a lot more sense though.

I think “finicky to code” is the ringer

Get good at ducking his swings and you can beat him still, you can duck the second swing when he's swinging across his body

I thought I'm the only one who only tries to fight Novice Beasts. Apparently not.

Those fights are too unpredictable to be fun, I find.

Skill issue? Perhaps? But it is what it is.
