Hard Darknell cheats by having a bunch of people gang up on you. Thankfully, Zero is also multiple people.")

I definitely couldve done this a long time ago, but free time has been too sparse, so now you get to see a super over-speccd clear with really sloppy play.")

Darknell, the final normal-mode boss to exist in the game as of this video. This is the first time Ive fought a boss thats a higher level than me, and in Reboot, that means a hefty final damage reduction to all my attacks.
Normally, this boss would come before Hard Lotus. And despite all the BS thrown around, its still easier to survive than Hard Lotus. But, I was challenging myself to not use buff freezers or green potions, and there was the aforementioned final damage reduction. Plus, this boss is basically impossible without knockback resistance. Most of the attacks hit the character for tons of lines at once so I couldnt rely on Lucent Brand, so I had to wait for Neo to tera-burn a Mihile.")

One single update made this go from impossible to free")

At this point, Ive lost count of how many videos Ive made of beating up poor Lotus. But honestly, with the way he spams perma-stun chain debris and the way his pitched boss drop keeps blowing up, he deserves it.
I didnt realize until watching back through this, but I got so many lucky immune barrier procs in this fight... I shouldve ended with like just one life left.")

After how I only just barely solod Normal VHilla within the 30 minutes, I was very scared to attempt CGloom. It didnt help that my gains from shining starforce were somewhat disappointing. But as it turns out, its way easier to keep up damage output when you arent constantly walking in between threads.
Destiny made this boss very free for Illium, mostly because of the new instant crystal charge. The blink float helps a lot too, but I somehow ended up never getting a chance to use it for this run.")
