I just got to this boss and came to this topic specifically to bitch about this runback.

The platforming is honestly fine, I could handle that, but those little obnoxious fucking shell coral flies that match your pace, making it impossible to actually chase them down are infuriating.
Yeah if you haven't beaten the boss yet, following my exact route is honestly not bad. The 2nd judge you come across with the fly can mess you up, but if you prepare your mind in advance, you can do what I did and save a ton of heartbreak. If you run like I do, you won't have to worry about the fly bullets usually. It's just their body that's the problem

This is sick and all, but this is one of the worst fucking runbacks I've seen in any games.
hate to say it but get good (aka your runback route is non-optimal at least safety-wise and you are also making it worse/slower by all the floating you're doing instead of dashing)

You couldn't have posted this shit ten minutes ago lmao. That second fly was the bane of my fucking existence.

Got to Act 2. Runback aside, The Last Judge was a pretty fun boss. I'm only mildly infuriated that after the Widow faked me out with a death, I thought I'd stand close to the Judge when it died and it BLEW ME THE FUCK UP, so I had to kill it twice.

And god, I'd I've seen people say that the Steady Strike charm in HK was GOAT, but I didn't really know what they meant until I put on the Weighted Belt for that fight.

Apparently if you use the anti-fire charm Forge Sister sells you'll take less damage from the phase 2 attacks, but I can't verify it myself.

I used Wanderer's Crest to beat her because she likes to stand in one place a lot. In general try to stay near the center of the arena unless she's forcing you out, you really don't want to be cornered by her.

I think you just have to tap since you don't like continuously run up the wall just ascend a short distance, but that is a mechanic yes.

Alright I'm at the end of act 2. What do I do to get all the endings on one file, I don't want to accidentally HK myself and lock myself out of anything because I went and did EVERYTHING before doing the last boss.

I think you need to do the 2nd ending first before undoing something after one specific wish otherwise you cant get it again.
rite of rebirth wish gives you a parasite. You need to beat the final boss with it before removing it permanently.

Defeated widow. That was an awesome fight. Hard as balls but gets easier when you figure out gameplay spoiler

you can deflect the diagonal balls. It's easy to dodge, but it bounce so in phase 2 its hard to keep track of.

I also found lore/story spoiler
a note where it says pharloom do trade with hallownest. It said some shipment to the "white wyrm's kingdom". Also the dialouge with widow and the weaver in shellwoods implies hornet's mother is from pharloom. Maybe she's like politically wed to the pale king.

which means the whole "hallownest is the only and final kingdom" thing is pure bs and propaganda. I think the higher beings giving bugs intelligence is also bullshit, because there are almost no signs of gods in pharloom. Their technology is far more advanced with better metallurgy and automatons running around, but there are no signs towards any magic research like in hallownest, where magic, souls and void are studied.

I can, it's how I beat that boss. Im not sure of all the attacks it works on, but it seemed to work in phase 1's spin attack too. Seems the censor itself always does fire damage. The same charm makes Lava only do 1 damage too. For anyone struggling with fights that take place around lava.

I think the "only and final kingdom" was intended to mean that all the others were wiped out by the infection. The guy who gives you the dream nail explains that it's their fault. The Pale King was able to stall the infection by creating vessels that would contain it periodically. It wasn't until the defeat of Radiance that they managed to end the infection permanently.

Currently stuck on ending 2 endboss.

This is tough. First boss i need more than 5 tries for.
Attempt 20 or so.

I should have gotten all masks first. Dying in 4 or t hits is a pretty big difference.

Edit: ok I did it. That was fun.

You can leave through the mist but the boss isn't really that hard and the runback is very fast. You should just do it.

The boss is pretty manageable. His attacks are very telegraphed. When he charges straight, jump up. When he uses the parry animation don't hit him, and just dodge the very telegraphed beams and its a cakewalk. I'd argue its one of the easier fights due to how easy it is to dodge, unlike Savage Beastfly. Honestly, I just took it slow and did 1 attack at a time, unless there was an opening to do 2. Yeah, it makes the fight a bit longer, but its safer.
