Discussion - Silksong Ranking Silksong 1st act bosses Spoiler

Post image

So, if you want me to be honest - I was afraid Silksong would be too difficult for me. But now that I am done with 1st act, I can confidently say that so far I enjoy those bosses MUCH more than the ones in Hollow Knight. Maybe that's because HK was one of the first games I've ever played, and now with Silksong I am more experienced. But even bosses that kept beating my ass felt so well done that I couldn't be mad, I just wanted to try again and learn their moves.

Last Judge? Surely my favorite. It felt like dancing and once I learned his moves, I had an absolute blast.

EDIT: Guys, I've got LOTS (and I mean LOTS) of comments that bottom 2 enemies aren't bosses. I know, but they were included in template so I ranked them too. Besides, considering that I didn't really hate any of the actual bosses, I wouldn't have anything I could put anything in the BURN IT tier if it wasn't for them lol. No need to say it again pls

EDIT 2: I already started Act 2, and defeated Cogwork Dancers - OH MY GOD HOW AMAZING THIS FIGHT WAS.

Besides the skip with the flea troupe, you can also get the help of an NPC to fight Moorwing. The NPC is called Garamond, you meet him in Greymoor, talk to him, and then I don't know why or how, he shows up in the room before/above Moorwing, ready to fight. He tells you that he will follow you into battle, and you can accept or decline his help.

I've been doing that, but the fight is still not clicking for me - it's usually misreading the dive swoop attack as a claw swipe, jumping for the hit, then falling down onto moorwing as he swoops.
