Unbeaten bosses?

I didn't beat Nim on my first try, but the fight itself was nowhere near as hard as any boss fight in Dark Souls. Seriously, go play Dark Souls, then tell us that Nim Shondu is the "hardest boss" you've ever faced.

I don't think that's a fair comparison. Dark Souls was famous for being ridiculously difficult.

soo if you walk up to him on the bridge before doing all the missions he kills you in one hit (like he does) whereas doing missions make him weaker then hes suddenly beatable? that sounds dumb lol

I think what Connorz is implying is, in the real world, a "boss" that seems unbeatable becomes very easy to beat when you get the proper gear for it. In the game, that means doing the appropriate missions that, in the real world, would be you going out and getting the right tools for the job in question.

It isn't that he's getting "weaker" per se, but that you are getting "stronger" even though the game doesn't actually make you appear stronger for balancing issues, namely, don't want to make your character actually that strong because then the rest of the game would be a cakewalk and not fun.

Edit: After reading page two, apparently the robot isn't beatable anyways, so, strictly speaking, it's something they could do for a boss they don't want you to beat before doing a certain mission but want you to be able to beat afterwards.

Then again, in an open world, not sure exactly how that would work, unless they just make it so you need to have a certain perk or something equipped. /shrugs.

Think of the mech on the bridge as a gate that you need to open in order to access the next part of the world. Its not a boss that you need to beat. You just need to progress far enough to unlock that portion of the world.

As far as Nim. I refuse to believe anyone who claims to have beat him on their first attempt. Sure, there are people that are awesome at gaming and shooters, but that's just... VERY unlikely. You see it in every game. Some yuts rambling on about how "oh that was so easy. Did it on my first try."

I am kinda disappointed that all these boss battles are solo, however. Isn't there a reason this is an MMO?

And yet there are plenty of people who have done that exact thing. Just because you haven't or you can't imagine it being done doesn't mean it isn't possible. Sorry for being able to beat the boss on the first try? :|
