I tend to find it as rare as some powerful weapons.
That makes sense. If that weapon survives for 5.0, I will probably do it. I think the plasma rifle is nice to have... even in early stages

It is your music???
Yes. I couldnt let go by the chances to add some of my music into a mod.
And about your case of "cant switch" spell pages, are you completely sure you have configured the alt fire button? I have seen no problems when changing the spellbook pages.

Then again, I could be wrong... I'll have to test.
Not really, if is charging into you and you kill it, well, he'll explode since that was it's goal

Well, actually I remember a few (including me) voiced negative opinions about the phoenix, but that was before its regular attack damage got reduced by more than half, before its health got reduced, and before it became a rare encounter.
It got really weakened over time ... David plays with Godmode, if he didn't, he'd complain about actually more dangerous enemies like the one they refer to "strife soldier" for example, which has like 3X health and has unavoidable rapid-fire attacks while using its shield or dangerous railgun shots. Those can scare me more, unless the phoenix is on an open space.
let's not talk about Eidolon, probably the most damaging boss in AEOD I've seen
now you [david] can enjoy without dying from a phoenix.
Yes, I did listen when I was told about how annoying was the phoenix, so I weakened it and made it very very rare. I generally listen to feedback
About the cheats-then-feedback, yeah that's somewhat useless. In a topic not too long ago, people were talking precisely of cheats in mods, and disabling them, etc. While the general consensus (if that's how is written) was that the modder shouldnt stop the user from cheating, since it's the player choice. Still, the feedback from cheats isnt useful since the "feedbacker" (ITWE) isnt playing under the regular circumstances and "rules" that should appear in the game/mod. For example, david in this case, Im pretty sure he never ever has used a "pentagram of protecion" as strategy when playing aeod (what would he need it for? if he's on god mode... right?). If he would have, he could have noticed how if a phoenix is charging and therefore menacing the whole room's life, you can use a pentagram (that's why I added the extra key configurations in the options: shortcuts for powerups) and voila!! you are still alive while everything else is not. As I stated before many times, God mode != Invulnerability poweups.

my least favorite boss might be Bar'luga seeing how i kept getting him in huge open areas and having his plasma attacks track me to the ends of the earth.
I couldn't blame people for being freaked out about the Phoenix but there really are a ton of brutal other enemies as well. Take Alien for example....
Now you mention, a enhancement to D'sparil would do him good. And about bar-lgura, the best method is to crouch when he fires those seeking projectiles, so any other seeking projectile in the game.
Ichor wrote:Oh, I've seen quite a few boss monsters that put out more damage than Eidolon. Mastema, for instance. Oriax can be just as bad, but at least that nova is a bit easier to avoid.
About oriax, I always struggled to decide: fast, hard to avoid nova bolts, or slow, extremely damaging (for it's ripper nature) bolts. I went for the second, but now I might change my mind (again
)
NovaDragon wrote:Shoot i think the Demilich can top those charts there considering some of his abilities. Also Baphomet always seems to one shot me no mater what so he might be my biggest fear but thankfully he never appears that often. Actually i would say the beast with the highest possible damage would be the masters pet considering 6 Phoenix blasts or 6 Cerberus blasts.
Yes, the Demilich is a boss that you shouldnt encounter easily, for both, it's power, and it's reward. And the pet. well, yeah, it was a bit too much maybe
(good thing that is rare too)

Sure, I do like to have opinions. However, dont get stuck with a single monster and throwing crap into it every chance you get
