The Dead Ends is yet another error in the push to make everything hardcore

The only trolls are the people who are saying there are visual indicators for everything. No there isn't. The people who made the guides probably used DBM so they know where to stand.

If you want, it's a troll, but there are still visual indicators and it's hard to miss if you concentrate a bit.

How is this guy going to get trough the fight after the last trial?

Look at the floor, there are actual lines on the textures that mark the safe zones between the lasers.

I play on Low settings so I can't see them.

But, there are visual indicators for everything, not everything has that big red circle that you have been trained to avoid, but everything has a visual indicator nonetheless.

Good luck in the last trial BTW.

Nope. There is no visual indicator for the beam attack in the last boss for instance. It just randomly beams half the circle. You have to memorize which one it's going to do first (it's Left first, then Right, then Left).

Personally I like it, the sense of danger and possibility of death are always nice touches, especially given what this expansion was/is built up to be. Plus, it's just a nice touch, I think all the encounters/bosses this expansion at story level are perfect for their level.

Stop your condescension. The last trial is properly designed because it gives you 16 lives. The dungeon hits so hard you make one mistake or two and you have to restart from the start. I'm not here to play Dark Souls.

There's indicators. It's the glowin bit that's either left or right.

Same with the big fight after the dungeon. Mouth sparkles > she's hitting the middle of the platform. eyes sparkling > she's going to hit left and right side of the platform and the middle will be safe.
And does make sense, mouth is also in the middle and the eyes are left/right, etc.
A lot of mechanics that do not display an orange line or circle on the ground have other visual cues like this.


Have a great new year by the way.

I play on Low settings so I can't see them.

...so low that the texture turns into a single color? They are visible even on low.

Nope. There is no visual indicator for the beam attack in the last boss for instance. It just randomly beams half the circle. You have to memorize which one it's going to do first (it's Left first, then Right, then Left).

Its glowing wing shows the side it attacks...

I never actually knew that, I just went off the giant glowing lasers that happen to be surrounding the boss.

Real talk I used to know a guy who apparently didn't know you could zoom out for like, months of playing the game, so he just straight up didn't see a lot of things coming. I'm definitely guilty of equally silly things, so this isn't me throwing shade, it's just like. Man. It really do be that way sometimes.
