These kills are truly impressive. I love how none of your movement is without purpose. Masterful gameplay.

[@seljuzgaming]

Stunning gameplay!! Well done Mouse!

0:09 strangest hitbox ever

The jump stinger seems to be the ash of war "The Poison Flower Blooms Twice" so you have a definitive name for it.

[@bishblaize]

Great stuff, always love these. Out of interest, why did you go with iron balls rather than star fists?

[@mouseinatutu]

@@bishblaize I probably could have, just didn't want to bleed her accidentally and too lazy to check how many hits that takes :P

[@justinhowe3878]

Beautiful. It's kinda crazy that the curl-uncurl has no hitboxes right up against her body.

[@highlightermarca-texto3281]

Is there any chance she does the butterfly explosion from 1:48 up close? Since you didn't mention that attack I assume it didn't cause you any trouble. Is there a tell for it you can react to if it's close?

[@mouseinatutu]

IDK if I was just lucky, but never had issues with it. Usually happens after repositions, but some moves allow it too. Double centipede swipe or jump f.ex.

[@highlightermarca-texto3281]

@@mouseinatutu Define never had issues. Did she not do it from close, or did you always manage to avoid it

[@mouseinatutu]

@@highlightermarca-texto3281 I didn't have it happen after gapcloses, single swipe or grab, the times you typically engage her in no roll

[@GiorgiT11]

1:30 didn`t know you could dodge like this, i got hit too many times with this attack on my RL1 run, then i used to move away and jump over it

[@an_intruder5677]

Romina is hot ngl

[@user-uf7qf7mv6k]

true...

[@WLightTheme]

Truly spectacular! Always love watching these to see if there's a more optimal way of avoiding some attacks other than simply rolling :) Now do Metyr, mother of shitters 💀

[@mouseinatutu]

She's next...

[@csquared4538]

Was interested to see what this fight looked like no roll. Didn't know what to make of it on my first playthrough. A lot of her attacks seemed to whiff unintentionally. GGs buddy!

[@mouseinatutu]

Yeah, a ton of her attacks just miss if you're close to her

[@JTsHorrorDiscussions]

Much like a spider woman of olden times 😆

[@swordam1063]

Didnt think u would be able to dodge phase 2 flying slash crazy work

[@mouseinatutu]

It's incredibly lenient. You can even run towards her and go under all 3 parts

[@soulslayer434]

One of the best fights in dlc. Too bad the butterfly aoes exist...

[@mouseinatutu]

Really silly attack. Not really a concern for no roll I've found, but the stinger jump sure is lol

[@soulslayer434]

@@mouseinatutu i had her follow up jump stinger with butterfly aoe so punishing that move isnt even safe w/ rolls :)

[@mouseinatutu]

@@soulslayer434 Yeah, I thought that could happen, but only saw it from range. I've seen it with double centipede swipe and the one double swipr that launches her forward a bit, so those are non-punishes too

[@theaveragenormie7151]

0:10 is unbelievable. Do you enable hitboxes while practicing and do you have a video of (reliably) dodging the stinger without rolling?

[@mouseinatutu]

Which stinger are you talking about? The jump one? If so, I am not able to dodge it reliably, only about half the time. I was trying it locked on at the start and dodged it maybe 5% of the time, but switching to unlocked made it a lot easier, but I'm nowhere near consistent at it. Edit: I usually fight most of the bosses without hitboxes showing unless there's some I'm really curious about. Like Messmer and Bayle.

[@theaveragenormie7151]

@@mouseinatutu I meant the jump one. It's really annoying to no roll. I'll try dodging it unlocked.

[@mouseinatutu]

Yeah, that attack is fucked. Crazy tracking and a huge hitbox. Getting behind him and jumping is what works sometimes

[@bananacorn4375]

I doubt you are gonna do Radahn(with the bugs and terrible arena), but if you do, there is a very specific timing where you can jump over his gravity spin attack.

[@mouseinatutu]

@@bananacorn4375 Good to know

[@Lemon-be7xe]

dang first fight i seen you locked on more than not

[@mouseinatutu]

I feel like I've been playing locked on a lot more in the DLC, not entirely sure why that is

[@Outofrealman]

How do you deal with the instant AOE in phase 2?

[@mouseinatutu]

@@Outofrealman Try not to be near her when she can do it. Only seen it after double centipede swipes, repositions, stinger attacks etc. Yet to see it after the gapclosers or after she walks towards you. If it turns out she can do it after those as well... Then just pray lol

[@div_tm]

​@@mouseinatutuI'm almost certain I've seen her do it after other attacks too. So I guess just pray... Kinda dumb to include such a move in an otherwise clean boss fight.

[@darreideamos2309]

have you find a consistent trick to notice the butterfly explosion circle fast enough or you just need to have really good reflexes or luck? That attack has been really troublesome. I overall love the boss but this attack I dont like. Great fight on your part of course

[@darreideamos2309]

*dodge that attack when you are close to her I mean

[@theaveragenormie7151]

@@darreideamos2309 You can edit your own comments. This isn't Twitter.

[@mouseinatutu]

The phase transition one you just have to know is coming. I haven't fought her a ton, but it doesn't seem like she can just do it when you're in melee with her. However, I know she can do it at least after repositions, after the double centipede swipe and after the one regular double swipe that brings her forward a little bit.

[@Ramblering]

@@mouseinatutu She apparently can do it the entirety of phase 2. I was watching Aggy fighting her with a club and it happened multiple times past phase transition.

[@maelstrrom2824]

There's a huge disparity between the good bosses in the DLC and the bad bosses in the DLC

[@mouseinatutu]

Agreed

[@Parabola73]

This with midra and messmer, is one of the best bosses of the DLC, even for challenge runs imo. However, I can't stand that the butterfly spell starts without warning and covers a too large area... every boss in this dlc seems to have an attack like this whose mechanics are a mystery(like uhm, every attack of the final boss)

[@mouseinatutu]

Yeah, this boss is pretty good, also appears far more polished than most of the rest of the DLC. Why they gave that AoE no warning I will never understand.

[@beanbottler]

great fight, radahn's next, right? 😁👽

[@mouseinatutu]

:Hollow:

[@JTsHorrorDiscussions]

​​@@mouseinatutuat this point with all remembrance bosses done, do you think Radahn is possible no roll? Also how many of the DLC bosses do you think are possible no sprint?

[@SoulOfDerp]

The instant AOE is BS in P2, you cant even roll it since it is instant lol.

[@aurelmuhameti889]

Hey, i have a question for you, do you want do to a seamless co op with me ? We can do a simple seamless co op or with mods like randomizer or something else. I am free every evening, i live in Europe and I speak french and a little bit english. I am not that bad in the game, my hardest run is a RL1 no roll/block/parry/, and i am doing the same thing with +0 weapon.

[@mouseinatutu]

Hey, thanks for reaching out. RL1 +0 no roll is a really tough but fun run, took me a long time to do the base game, kudos on attempting that. I unfortunately don't have the time to put into a co-op playthrough at the moment, also rarely play with people without talking to them some first. You could try seeing in DSD or some other discord server. If you're interested in playing ER bingo you can try the zero scratch discord discord.gg/RmwDAFE2

[@Gay_Charlie]

I could have swore that I tried running through the limps for the spin attack but perhaps I should have messed with it more but it also doesn't visually make sense lol. This boss like the Dancing Lion also works in similar ways where in order to avoid a fast telegraphed attack, you must attack the posterior side. The OST is four minutes which is something I find odd since this fight in my opinion has the Combat Time Value of three minutes. Also, what are your thoughts on the five-hit combo? It overlaps a lot and I find it visually conflicting. However this is my personal favorite boss in the DLC in terms of proper Design Philosophy.

[@mouseinatutu]

I can definitely see the 5-hit combo being visually confusing. First time I outspaced the first three and got hit by the centipede I was surprised as I didn't think that would have a hitbox lol.
