No, it's not super difficult to fight out in the main room. But why chance it when you would have to start from orbit if you wipe? I don't like to waste my time, I prefer "sure things" ;)

It's quite hard this time round with all the modifiers on. The room with the magic floater lads is tough if you all go through. Keeping someone near the first doorway to that room is helpful. The little grey screaming fellas all running at you can be dodgy if you lose track of what's going on. For the pit room, there's no need to do anything differently, just stay where you can easily get to eachother. The big orange pointy head men don't budge when you hit em, so stick together and call them out if they get close. If you are doing the staying in the first room trick, fine, but if someone goes down in the pit, you'll struggle to get to them and if you all stay in that room, watch out for the big purple shrieking blobs. They take a bit to drop and fill the room with pain times. Overall it's one of the easier strikes on a hard setting and a wipe isn't too bad because you only take 10 minutes to get to the fat guy anyway. Just take your time :)

love your descriptions of the bad guys. 'magic floater lads" wins

Very well said. I still prefer staying in the entry room. It's more of a sure thing.

Yeh, I will be doing it because I don't have the patience for wiping in a strike :D Nothing wrong with it anyway (obviously I say that because do it myself haha) IRL if you're going to fight a 30 feet tall cyclops with frikking laser beams and stuff, you wouldn't wanna get in there if there was a spot you could shoot him from safely, would ya? :D

Nor do I. There is nothing I hate more. ;)
