My god! I have been stuck here for hours! I know there's a shortcut after the third gauntlet, but I can't even beat the second! I only beat it once and then died in the first wave of the next one! High halls was a piece of cake compared to this, at least you didn't have overlapping waves and so much area denial. And those flying things are fucking annoying, they are always barely out of reach! Why is everyone always ranting about high halls and not this?

Please, tell me it's the last time I have to deal with these ridiculous gauntlets. Or at least that there will be checkpoints. This is like a forced boss rush but worse because at least bosses are fun.

I'm using wanderer+longclaw, but I also tried reaper, other crests I'm not really good at them, I only forced myself to use architect for the unravelled. I'm not sure which is better. With reaper I rarely get to land more than one hit, but I do get to land a pogo more often on the flying bastards

I’d recommend ditching the Longclaw (it doesn’t make that much of a difference anyway) and focusing on staying alive. I seem to recall using the Plasmid, the injector Band, the memory cristal and the Fractured Mask at some point to proceed (it’s been months since I did that fight, sorry my fuzzy memory).

My logic was: you have to stay alive and keep your health maxed out for as long as possible, use silk only to cure and beat the enemies either quickly or without getting too much damage.

I'm hating this sooo much. I made almost zero progress.

I'll try, but I'm not really comfortable with the short range of wanderer. Back on the first game I always used mark of pride, unless I really needed more spell charms for a boss
