I beat the phalanx and tower night yesterday, I think the fights took about half an hour each
Phalanx in particular, I wasn't really ready for the fight, so very quickly ran out of fire spells and buffs. My sword was doing 1 damage against the shields as I couldn't get around to the weak points. Luckily I managed to open the menu mid fight (
) and swap to another I had on me which had thrust damage, which helped.
Tower night wasn't really much of a tough fight, but I was out of healing items pretty quickly and kept getting caught out by the odd attack which would stun me and then I'd take big damage.
Both fights were made all the more tense as I'd been through the entire levels so far to get to them and didn't want to lose all my stuff. Did both first go but it was shaky hand stuff.
Looks so bloody good .
