For god's sake, change the Calus Boss Fight.
I write this after playing *two hours* stuck on the last mission in the Lightfall campaign on Legendary difficulty, and I always hit the same roadblock: These two f$$$ing Tormentors knocking me out of the arena CONSTANTLY. If I don't restrain them with strand every 5 seconds I just get RUINED. And yeah, let's keep spawning in so many enemies that you spend 2-3 work days dealing with ads.
I wish to find the person responsible for designing this travesty of a boss fight and tell them to- well I really want to shove their face down a toilet but since I want to be cordial...
>SAFETY RAILINGS OR SOMETHING IDK STOP THROWING ME OFF FOR NO REASON
>GET RID OF THE TORMENTORS, OR JUST KEEP ONE IDK???
>Get rid of some of the enemies, we don't need that many spawning in everywhere
>Idk, bigger strand damage against Calus? If you want to force me to use Strand for this bossfight, make it worth my damn while!
I'm going to bed now, I need to cool off after failing for two hours or so. (And no, I don't have any friends, so don't tell me to make a fireteam to help me.)

Edited by Zydron, The Gate Lord: 7/4/2023 2:44:51 AMI was dissapointed in the calus fight like everyone, I wish they added more tormentors.... too easy for me. There has to be 6 tormentors with calus.

3 RepliesGo to YouTube and look up the cheese technique to beat Calus. Life is too short for nonsense like this mission.

2 RepliesMy friend it's 100% a skill issue. First time beating him it took me 5-6 hours on legendary. Did it with a friend two weeks ago in just over 28 minutes ✌🏾

It [i]really[/i] isn’t that bad, it’s just getting a pattern down and staying patient I spent maybe 3 or so hours trying to beat it. I played for a while, ate dinner, then came back and beat it first try back. Primary dps soon came into play. Don’t be afraid to take it slow.

Osteo,auto load GL,auto load rocket. Jump jump jump and jump some more. Good luck

1 Reply1. Nothing is forcing you to use Strand, you can do the fight without it. 2. The enemies aren't even an issue. 3. If you're struggling with the fight, find other players to help you out. 4. (Insert typical skill issue response here)

Kill the ads and tormentors? We’re so ungodly overpowered these days there’s not much of an argument to be made that anything in this game is hard currently

1 ReplyDid they remove the stairs cheese? It made the whole fight a joke.

sadly for you is just a skill issue problem, calus boss fight is super free especially if you use strand

The boss is extremely easy

Yeah, you should get an Adept for doing that encounter legit , most people cheesed the f out of him, a cheese you can't do anymore sadly -
have someone get chased by the tormentor then jump between platforms. its slow but it works
-
Just kill 1 tormentor and leave the second one's shoulders up so it wont be fast.
-
Its working. Good luck

Tormentors can be blinded and credit before they get close

1 ReplyHide under the stairs for the 1st half. You can also use strand to climb onto the dome for the 2nd half and shoot down.
-
4 RepliesI'm in the same boat! As a solo player (and less than average), I haven't been able to get through this final step in the campaign. I just wish we could re-spawn where we last left off vs. having to start completely over. I even did the cheese approach under the platform but that requires some precision to land on the narrow rails. I get through the initial round before the second phase and just before it starts try to get back up top to grapple above the descending whatever and just fail again and again.

3 RepliesU can go under the stairs and on top of the circle thingy in second phase Search it on utube Also, yeah I agree, the handrails made me laugh

3 RepliesIf you don’t have other options and/or don’t want to invest more time, you can completely cheese both phases of the boss. Check out some YouTube guides on Calus cheese, but here’s the rundown below 👇 Make sure to pick up strand with a grapple grenade! For the first half, you’ll climb under the stairs near where the rally flag is. Don’t start the encounter until you’re down there! Make sure to equip weapons that can still hit him with the stairs slightly in the way. No explosive weapons (like rockets or gls) or bows. Fire away at him until he’s nearly into the second phase. Machine gun and auto rifle work well. Before phasing him, climb out from under the stairs. This will take some effort and feel a bit risky. Use your grapple if you need. Next, wait until your grapple is back. Then, stand on a box near the rally flag. You want to be outside the area Calus encloses. Then, when the walls of the arena form and it says “joining allies,” you’ll grapple towards the top of the arena on top of the walls. Once you reach the top, you’re able to shoot through the walls and hit Calus with ease. Shoot him until he dies and the walls of the arena will fade, allowing you to pick up the chest at the end. This method is very tedious, but effective.

8 RepliesUse LFG I am sure there are 2 other players as frustrated as you trying to solo. Game is designed for team work.
-
The encounter is designed to use strand to swing around and stay out of the way. I admit its an annoying encounter but honestly its not worth stressing over
-
You’re a season and a half late and being 1822 on your titan would make this trivial. I hate to say it but literally skill issue, also there’s only 1 tormentor at a time if you’re spawning both that’s wholly on you. There’s also dozens of strats on youtube to use, watch em.
