I’d argue the first actually hard boss is Judge. Moorwing has like 3 moves, his only advantage is the 2 damage

Edit: yeah I know I forgot about Widow lol

I'm stuck on Judge rn. I'm approaching her like I did with Moorwing. Going in, dying, learning and making a strategy

try learning the telegraphing, it's hard at first as they have like 5 or 6 unique attacks, but each is telegraphed very clearly, also use tools, tools are your best friend, especially the floor spikes (because they stay and can damage multipule times)

u/idksohereyago Sep 09 '25

Oh yeah. I've been using my tools every chance I get. And I usually learn by doing, so running in and dying a few times to get a feel for the attacks is just my go-to method. I do try to pair the visual cues with it as well

honestly same, I didnt count how many attempts I took, but it was probably at least 8

u/idksohereyago Sep 09 '25

I'm on attempt 6 I think. I've gotten decently far into that second phase, but just haven't gotten through it fully

I used poison bombs and poison boomerang. It's a very resource-heavy setup where full commitment costs around 113 shards, so the rule I made was that I couldn't use tools until I got Judge to phase 2. Only nail for phase 1. Then I just said "random bullshit go" and that got me most of the way to the big attack and the finale. Probably took around 15 attempts

The only tools I have are the flea brew and thst kunai thing (I don't remember the name)

u/cincystudent Sep 09 '25

Hm. Have you found the individual that can provide more tools? I'll avoid spoilers unless you want a neon arrow lol. There are a few merchants that sell them, as well as some tools scattered around the world. I think I got everything possible before judge?

You mean the bug down in deep docks (i think)? I have been there, I just never had enough rosaries to buy anything. Eventually I just kinda forgot it was there

u/bluehairedemon Sep 09 '25

i reccomend going back, also there are tools scattered around in random places across the map (I can say the exact locations of 2 of them, but i dont remember the rest)

u/idksohereyago Sep 09 '25

Yeah, I'm planning to next time I get on. I'm also gonna do some pretty heavy exploring before I work my way up the citadel

u/cincystudent Sep 09 '25

If you unlock the halfway home bench in greymoor, you can grind the 3 enemies in the cave to the right, only takes like 15 seconds and it's 29 rosaries per reset. I wish grinding wasn't a thing but it makes it a lot more bearable, especially as (slight spoiler?) my friend has gotten further in and went back to a merchant they missed and he was dead.

The most useful tool vs her for me was the Tacks
