@TheBrandedSwordsman Well done, Slayer of Demons! Flamelurker was one of the toughest bosses in the game for me. He was quite aggressive and could close in really quickly. I had to resort to some similar cheese methods to get him down but it took me a handful of tries.
It seems you’re really well equipped and powered for this stage of the game. There’s really only about 3 bosses in the remainder of the game that I struggled with as much as him, but people just find some bosses harder than others. Look forward to hearing more of your progress!

@Th3solution I am planning on taking on the Vanguard Demon next, as he stands in the way of me and my Adjudicator's Shield. Any tips? I know I could probably just run past him but it's probably more fun to kill him, haha.

I see that you succeeded already with Vanguard Demon. Nicely done. I was going to suggest trying to stay behind him, as I recall that to have been the best strategy. But it’s been a while so I can’t fully remember.
Which boss/level is your next target?

@TheBrandedSwordsman How do you feel about the World Tendency mechanic? It’s curious that From never went back to that. I think it has its merits, but overall i found it frustrating to deal with. So much so that i just played almost all the game in soul form so I wouldn’t shift the world toward black each time I died.
“We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.”
@Th3solution Yeah, I felt similarly to you during my current playthrough, I've been suiciding in the Nexus in order to keep PWW going in all the worlds I've visited thus far. Just unlocked the shortcut to False King Allant, to avoid the dragon on the bridge, gonna stock up on Full Moon Grass now prior to the "final" battle haha.

@TheBrandedSwordsman False King Allant is really tough if you don’t cheese him. Good luck. I played as a mage and so it was fairly easy and I used some cheesey techniques with poison and just keeping my distance. Once he was weak enough I do think I went in for the finishing blows up close, as I recall. But if you face him head on, be ready to dodge and learn his attack patterns.

@Th3solution@Jimmer-jammer .Actually guys, he, unfortunately did whoop me on my second attempt and drain away one of my "hard-earned" levels haha😂 But I have found a much more lucrative farming spot in 1-4 now, so, after getting my level back I will be farming up to 50 strength. As, yeah, his hitboxes are insane. I had 34 strength and was wielding the DBS two-handed with Curse Weapon, but to no avail, I was still doing little damage so, yeah, I think the extra 16 levels to hit the softcap for Str will be required in order to take this bad boy down.
Sol, I made the mistake of fighting him on the stairs and, yeah, like you said, if you don't cheese him somehow or learn his attack patterns/ dodge properly he can be a real mf. But ,yeah, 50 strength with all the other strategies in place should hopefully do a lot more damage to him. Glad you enjoyed your Christmas by the way, those chocolate-covered fruits sound excellent.
Jimmer, sorry to hear you fell off Alan Wake II, welcome to the club, besides games like the Souls games, Uncharted series, God of War (2018) and the Witcher 3 and other various RPGs I have fallen off loads of games in my gaming history, but , yeah, hopefully Lies of P will be a much more complete experience for you.All the best to you with family stuff. Glad you had a good Christmas

@Jimmer-jammer I might even level up more than that! I don't know right now, like @Th3solution was saying, he's a really tough boss, and I just love the idea of taking him out in a few hits with an extremely powerful build. I'm sorry to hear that your Alan Wake II playthrough was ruined by what sounds like some extremely inconvenient game-breaking bugs.
What did you mean by "the game just cannot get out of its own way" out of interest?
Nothing special planned for New Years probably just have a nice drink to celebrate it, hope to see some family in the early days of the New Year as well. You?
Oh, and did you start Lies of P yet? What's it like? I've heard good things about it.

@Jimmer-jammer I think I may end up leveling Vit & Str to 99 to make Allant and the rest of the game a cakewalk. Just the way I play these games. Even though it can take an age unfortunately. But I am netting about 6,000 souls per farm in about 2-3 minutes so I don't think it will take as long as it would in less lucrative farming spots of course.
Could you post a link to that review? I don't know how to find it on here.
