Stop Hitting Yourself

Hey guys, remember that cool boss the Fanatic Totem from the Corkus Lootrun?

You don't? Uh

Hey guys who have specifically ran the Corkus Lootrun, remember that cool boss the Fanatic Totem from the Corkus Lootrun? Yeah! Remember that one really cool attack it did that somehow dealt all of your damage instantly?

Wow I'm sure it was really obvious what that attack is



(No but seriously I have seen people complain about this specific enemy in the Corkus LR and the worst part is not a single one of them knows that the attack is a Reflection attack. Why the hell is the visuals on this attack so damn obscure. If it really was that easy to read this attack then we wouldn't have people clueless about it)

No like literally don't lie who here met this boss and couldn't figure out what the hell it just did before like ten attempts or until someone else told them c'mon show of hands

Anyways I recently finished up some new tech for my mob system so I decided to make a better version, here you go

​

(I wanted the mirror to be larger and closer to the enemy but I already filmed the gif by then and was way too lazy to resize its model and film it again)

(Also the shards were originally added there so it was clearer that the totem was still doing the attack but it turns out the mirror itself was obvious enough. I kept it in though because cool visual)

(Yes I know I took Two's mirror assets and colored them I can't be bothered to make a brand new mirror model for this)

(P.S. The reflection effect only begins once the nameplate turns blue. Wow would you look at that a clear and obvious warning that the thing is going to happen before it happened (I know the current one looks up and has a horn or smth but the mob looking upwards is not a clear indicator of an upcoming attack (unless you know ahead of time that it looking up is a warning) (and I despise attacks that rely on only sound as a telegraph please never ever do those)))

 

It has a reflection attack???

 

Okay hi so I have been informed that this boss was actually created like two years ago

I'll give Fanatic Totem a little bit of slack because yeah the tech back then probably didn't allow much else for this enemy I think
Fair enough

(Could use an update now though. Consider mirror! New fancy model tech!!!)

 

Yeah this was like ... Among some of the first movesetted mobs
