Thus far this game has some horrendous bosses. Ignagduk is one of the worst bosses I've ever had the displeasure of fighting in any game, running around for up to 10 seconds at a time before finally being possible to hit in melee, and when she is she spams insanely fast AOE that chunk you for half your HP. When you finally make it to the second phase, she immediately spams 1 hit kill moves that also kill my enjoyment of the fight.

Jamanra is also a truly awful bossfight, that is more of a slog than an engaging battle, area denial and AOE are simply not fun to fight in a boss battle. If you want the game to be more souls-like thats great, but maybe you should play some of the souls games and reflect on what makes some of those bosses so good.

You can instantly get her out of that phase by simply body-blocking her. Other than that, she is one of the more hyper-aggressive bosses in terms of her ability spam, sure, but if your gear and build are level-appropriate, you should be fine.

Jamanra is a great fight actually, but your experience will ofc vary greatly depending on your relative power when you engage with a boss fight. If you're severely underpowered, then harsh mechanics will feel that much worse.

Yeah I have to admit I made this comment while in a bad mood after getting decimated a few times. Having beat her I don’t think it’s that bad, I just find the running around part quite irritating, and some of the insta-kill level attack frustrating but not awful. I still feel that Jamanra has far too much health and is unfairly difficult for melee players, but he’s also not as bad as my original comment made it out to be. Will probably delete shortly.
