Nim is wayyyyyyyy to overpowered

[Mamif]

Beat him first try.

Fun fight well done.

Shotgun/Bmg.

Dodge roll

[Sarin]

Also..

Ahahaha @OP, sorry but you just fail at gaming. Nim is one of the easiest end game bosses I've ever fought in a game. He's so bloody predictable ahaha.

wow... i came to the party late...

i agree that nim is pretty hard i think i died over 20 times in all his phases combined. i feel that he is slightly bugged due to the fact that i was behind a pillar when he used his ground pound sonic boom attack and would still get hit as well as being knocked to the ground having all my shields removed and his sonic boom attacks shark fin would slice me to insta death ( i think thats the only reason i died the most)

but i don't feel he should be toned down. yeah i don't play shooters that much but i coudl hold my own against pretty much all the other bosses even jackleg ( i think i died maybe 5 times due to his grenade spamming and possibly a "sniper" i hadn't seen)

i have noticed that this game has drawn a pretty elitist crowd and hwen someone makes a criticism it usually comes down to "you just suck at gaming" like Sarin above me has said.

i understand that people want challenge but i also understand people want to go through the story. i don't see why they can't add difficulties for instances.

i'll probably get flamed or something and stating that i might will probably definitely get me flamed but i thought i would put that out there.

i guess i didn't really contribute to the conversation.. well TY for reading

Its not hard when you learn Nims moves. Use roll and jump frequently in phase one. Phase two and Three is actualy easyer that phase one since you also have cower. If you have trouble use an BMG to reload your Shield.

Im sure you will handle it, best of Luck.

Boss is fun...but if you know how to schwff around the corner its very easy

There's nothing elitist about saying that someone does in fact have a below average skill level when they cannot understand simple pattern recognition. Seriously, have you even fought him yet? Christ Final Fantasy has hard bosses yet children can still beat these games.

I think you'll eventually come to realize that people that call for nerfs are lazy and don't want to change the way they play and just want to face tank everything.

The entire Nim 1st phase is keep shooting then just mash the roll button until he stops charging at you.
The 2nd phase is literally put one shot into each decoy until you hear a hit registry then fire on that one.
The 3rd phase is LITERALLY hide behind a wall and shoot at him.

This,,,,is not difficult nor is this even worth calling anyone who beats it "elitist". Seriously... do you people not play any other games that are actually hard....

hey sarin.. i think you kind of focused on my elitist remark.. as i said i have beaten him and i died over 20 times.. and i didnt' call out for a nerf i was just stating that you makign a comment about "you fail at gaming" seems rather elitist. from your comments im assuming that you play shooters alot? ( if mot my bad like i said im assumign from comments i don't know you IRL) kool man. i think i stated in my post that i don't play shooters very much due to my experiences with them when im on the ps3 or 360.. ( that being people who are the most foul mouthed people/children i have ever heard. I honestly think George Carlin if he were sitll alive owuld cover his ears at these people) im nto saying you are one of these people.

but if you play shooters often yes you are going to have "the skills to pay the bills" where as i will be less proficient in ganking people.

yes i did recognize his pattern. like when he jumps up in the air and begins to roll around like sonic ( i think ) he is about to do the Artillery Shower from Hell. im nto askign for him to be nerfed but i can understand people less skilled wanting somethign more to their level which is why i said allow difficulty settings in instances. so that way it being a single player instance they can choose the level they want to play on.

i feel the they need to fix some of the bugs though like how his "Sonic Boom Shark Fin" attacks seemed to go through the pillars i was standing behind and running away from. also i don't think my dodge really helps in game i've noticed when i dodge these damend things are psychic and have their sights on me before i can even get up from my roll ( thats just my oipinion though )

Thanks for reading ^.^

ok i didn't give the reason WHY i don't play shooters but i think i did state it and if not i may have to go and edit it

Yeah I did sorry, at work and not paying too much attention.
Not just shooters, just games in general. I just get snippy when people call for nerfs on things that can be accomplished by applying yourself. On these forums alone I've seen people upwards of 50 and 70 years old beat Nim after a many tries because they clued on as to how you beat the boss. More people need to do this, there are a few more threads saying that they've "died dozens of times" and call for nerfs. Seems a little bit sad really that people give up so easilly, but alas I come from the generation where we didn't get the luxury of having games tweaked because they were hard, we had a game disk/cartridge and you would get angry, very angry and keep fighting and getting better to beat the boss. That was what gaming was to me, challenges to be overcome.

Just the thought that a company could nerf one of the few challenging fights in the game makes me pretty annoyed and snappy.


Thanks for the reply.

In all honesty, I found most bosses to not be much of a problem for soloing. I didnt even have that much amazing weapons. (VOT SMG + 5 shot 1000 damage nade launcher)
I only found the second last boss (the lieutenant) to be troublesome because i didn't realize he was calling in airstrikes on me.

I only had blur too, which wasn't very useful for most bosses. xD

In all honesty, the last boss was probably one of the easiest.
Very predictable pattern, the only projectiles he shoots are slow moving and has a delay before shooting and stuns himself every now and then.

Compared to fighting raiders with normal bullets, i found it a breeze, but that's just me. :\


Though i do agree some situations are bull for solo, ridiculous amounts of enemies and such, but overall seems rather doable for solo without dying too much.
