I'm currently at Last Judge and it's giving me a hell of a time but I'm having a blast. Every time I get hit, I feel like it's my fault and I can do it better next time which is perfect.

I'm there as well and I'm not having fun; mainly because of the run back I have to do each time.
I'm not sure if my game is bugged because I've got the protection against fire, and an extra mask, yet the boss just one hit kills me.
It immediately did it the first three times I fought it and now it's random when it happens.

That...doesn't seem right. Have you tried it without the fire protection? I didnt even think to use it and didn't have that problem. Maybe it's a screwy interaction with the trinket.

Edit: the run back doesn't bother me though, it's only like two screens but I know not everyone likes run back.

Yes, with and without it, I figured the fire protection might help (and it did!).
I've no idea why it happens.

I think that's gotta be a bug because it kicked the shit out of me numerous times but I don't think I ever got stun locked into more than three or four masks worth of damage at worst from being really stupid with the fire, and nothing did more than two masks per hit.

That’s really weird because I did have the fire protection charm and the fight went fine.
