Tales of Arise - Second Boss Ganabelt (Hard Mode)
Well this took a few tries, his attacks are pretty hard to react to because I can barely see his character model with all the special effect going on sometime. Goes to show why Dark Souls had the right idea making every boss model look huge. Also his 3 hit combo comes out a bit too fast for my ossan reaction time and I end up just eating the first hit most of the time. Some tips for people attempting this on hard. First make sure you save Law's Boost Attack with special cutscene until he teleports to the middle to summon his illusion when his first bar of health is almost depleted, it'll allow you to skip that phase entirely making the fight much more manageable. Second, when you get knocked down by Indigination, which you inevitably will on hard, you can use your active character's Boost Attack to get out of the down state right away, letting you heal and get a few attacks off to finish off at least 2 illusions. Anyway, that was a pretty fun fight, looking forward to doing the 3rd boss.
