Having a level 12 weapon is HIGHLY recommended. The sentinel enemies that you encounter prior to the boss drop great level 12 weapons sometimes, so be on the lookout for them. It's better to pay attention to the boss, rather than trying to get every active reload, especially while you're weaving in and out of bullet hell barrages. Once you get the hang of things, you'll notice it's a fair bit slower than you might have originally thought. Good luck!

I love when he pushes you back in third phase and while you’re still flying sends some purple homing projectiles that are impossible to avoid 😍😍
he is so real for that🤭
This boss fight was so stressful yet challenging. Overall the game is just awesome
Wasn't going into this fight blind with a ton of integrity, maxed out proficiency, and full of artifacts. Had to watch your video, and beat him first try. Thanks so much!
Wuss
Way to go, when maxed out with 15 proficiency and all health it can be done in the first try!
I DID IT FINALLY! 2 weeks and tons of prep but I kicked nemesis ass with a level 10 hand gun ! Dam this is satisfying I haven’t had a game this fun since Atari came out in the old days
Damn to say that, must mean something!
I completed the whole game using these guides to recap good going Johnny
Just reached the 4th biome and im happy that if i die i won't go back 3 biomes!!
If I die in the fourth biome, do you start back at level 1 and zero artifacts and stuff or do they save after Biome 3?
@@TheProphegy you start at biome 3 you wont loose permanent artifacts you only loose all weapons health bar goes back to zero etc..
This fight was 100% in my top 5 boss fights of all time. After I beat him i was shaking and absolutely speechless.
It's honestly incredible. I had no idea what I was even looking at when it first started.
@@SweetJohnnyCage Oh ya man shen the fight starts your fighting a giant bohemoth and by the end you are flying through the air shooting, trembling and praying it is an absolute masterpiece 👍.
How did you switch weapons
@@darryllinder5444 You cant switch weapons on the fly u pick up weapons and that will be your primary gun. Other than the katana
@@darryllinder5444 So before the fight make sure u have a very powerful weapon with goo bonuses for extra destruction, this boss is insane
The way Nemesis sits itself in front of you in phase one. I was like You can't be Serious. It really felt like a Final Boss.
I legitimately had no idea what I was supposed to even be looking at the first time. Game is a fucking masterpiece.
Good guide, thank you! I managed to beat this boss on the first try thanks to a parasite that healed me when at critical health. Crazy fight!
Did is as well, no parasites, but pretty big health pool ;)
great video! my phase 2 was slightly different with red rings spreading out but your video helped me a lot in the other phases!
These tutorials are epic good. Beth helpful. And explained in a calm way which translates into everyone’s runs at home. Nice
Awesome that you comment and explain your experiences. Awesome guides. You got a sub! Thnx for your guides!
Thanks so much, you helped me beat him on the first try. I was stuck on Biome 3 for a long time and didnt want to risk losing to him after about four hours ha ha. I barely beat him before I died.
Thanks for the video... definitely helped! Another thing that helped me was turning sound down for fight and concentrating on visual cues....amazing game!
Man I was stuck on this boss for awhile now. Thanks for the walkthrough. Just kicked his ass 🤙🏽
I just got Nemesis down to around 15% health on the last health bar but it's so hard to shoot when all I'm trying to do is evade/jump between platforms! The first two waves were alright, but damn, the last "form" of Nemesis really got me. Seven artefacts, great consumables... I'll go again tomorrow. Thanks for the upload.
Good luck man
Omg seven artifacts, now that is a hard grind just to get 7 artefacts
you didnt use reconstruction? it helps
I used the rocker launcher.
Make sure you have an astronaut handy also.
Thanks for the guide. Quick and informative
Thanks man, that explanation was excellent. Got it on my first try :) I got real lucky with a level 15 launcher though, it had like 5/6 extra damage bars combined with swarm. No traits though. Some advice for others: I paused inbetween each phase to check the video and that really helped, plus it gives you some time to breathe.
Thanks! This helped me. I tried the Hollow first, and then beat her with the grenade launcher.
Just beat it first try, thanks for the video! Lvl 14 carbine with critical hit btw
Ah, I need a higher carbine then😂
@@ghlewis you can do it!
First tried it thanks to your guide! You’re the man.
Thank you so much for guiding i finish it today ❤
These guides are great and top tier. Helped me with Ixion few hours ago.
The citadel stage is so damn long lol. But I love the game lots of fun keeps you on the toes. Hopefully to best nemesis in a bit 😅
Really? I found it easier than the 2nd biome for some reason, might have been how OP my gun and artifacts were this run. Beat Nemesis first try after killing Ixion thanks to this guide 🤙
@@mushrooka awesome stuff !!! It took me two tries to beat nemesis. Really love the game though 😁
@@luismckie3443 yeah same here, did you beat all the bosses now?
@@mushrooka nope I haven’t as yet. I’m in the ice biome
@@luismckie3443 same here
Your guides are super well done. This definitely helped me clear it on the first try. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for the compliment. I'm glad I could help you!
Bullshit lol this boss is rediculas if you don't have at least a lvl 14 gun
@@Bakersvill cleared it the first time I was able to get to the boss. Not sure why I would lie about that but okay.
@@BakersvillI just killed him on my first try with a lvl 12 Rotgland Lobber. Just gotta keep moving and shooting, that's the name of the game on all these bosses.
Damn I was so close. But didn't have an astronaut or something and wasn't fully prepared. Tbh I just wanted to reach this boss and almost killed him. I'll be back tomorrow. Great video man!
Yeah bro, thx so much. With your help, i managed to first-try this sucker!
Thank you! I got to the boss and had 80% health and your video helped me beat him on my first try. I really didn’t wanna comb through the Citadel again
But that’s the game though...
@@Idkwhtpsipto Why would you want to have to replay something you didn’t need to?
liar
Good guide, thanks 🙏🏻
One of the best boss fights I’ve had in a while. So unique
I beat Nemesis first try. But he’s definitely the most visually stunning boss period. The scale, particle galore, beam frenzy, platform jumping among the vastness and of course the sound make it an exquisite choreography to behold!
This boss reminds me of berserk enemies
avin a laugh , just getting there takes most of your trys an infuriating mess of a game
I fought this boss for the first time last night and my gun (lvl 11 Hollowseeker) wasn't nearly strong enough. I didn't make it past phase 1 because the boss did all sorts of weird attacks. I definitely recommend using a different type of weapon.
And then there’s me who gets pushed away 4 times during the third phase, I’ll have another go tomorrow 😩
Revisited today, went through both biomes beforehand and got my integrity to 220%. Level 11 carbine and it was surprisingly not too bad!
I did have a perk active where for any damaged inflicted to the enemy (depending on your adrenaline level) you restore integrity. Definitely helped!
@@gavinixir I would buy that perk right now for serious cash
@@leeputman2123 great perk but it costs a price since if you get hit your adrenaline resets
thank you for the video!!!
Wow thanks for the tips. I beat him on the 2nd try with 2% health as I was falling lmao. I used the level 15 Rotgland Lobber.
I beat him my first try thanks to your guide I knew what to expect! For me phrike, the first boss, was the hardest boss so far! I went through as many rooms and areas as I could and got my weapons proficiency all the way to max 15, got my health to 250, and had okay parasites and bad consumables. But I did it with the carbine, no alt fire lvl 15 pretty solid.
That’s crazy! Funny enough I found the first boss to fairly easy but challenging, the second boss was a pain
Just beat this boss with this guide today. Super helpful. 1st boss was a pain but I found 2nd boss the hardest
I must be bad or something because I had very good gear except for a bad primary. I felt like my gun was a pea shooter! 😂
Nice and clear explanation
Thanks for the guide. Only took me 2 attempts after reaching him.
Thanks bro. Beat em on my first try 👍🏽
Great tips.
Nice work!
Thank you so much!!!! I finally beat him!
Great walkthrough
Just beat this boss. Thanks! Seems the first phase is the toughest.
Thanks for the guide beat it on my 2nd try
Thank you, you give a concise, very helpful guide. The red dot - who knew it was the red dot? I shot at everything else the first and only time I got there and it was all such a waste and I died having done nothing - nothing! - to the enemy. This guide will change that. Again, thank you so much for this!
That's why i kind of look at bosses beforehand. Stuff like that can absolutely ruin a run for no reason other than, 'well duh, you didn't know'. I don't want to pay a few hours of a run just to 'know', knowing is cheap. I want to experience and execute on that knowledge and play the game itself.
After finally getting to the boss again by getting lucky and not having to fight a hundred drones in one room, I found that the Rotgland Lobber was OP on Phase 3. I went back and watched this video to make sure, but it was a while before your shots started doing damage. The Rotgland Lobber started doing damage immediately. I'm not that good with the weapon at this point, so phase 1 and 2 were probably a little harder for me than they would have been with another weapon, but man that weapon is a beast on Phase 3! Thanks again for your awesome tutorials. After beating this guy, I got to the Biome 4 boss without much trouble, but I had to stop for the night. Looking forward to the rest of the game!
Thanks! I wondered if rotgland was okay for this boss. I'm using a carbine. The last phase is tough, LOL
After 2 days I finally done it!!!
Just wanted to thank you for this guide, i took him down on 1st try, and i am a very BAD player in this game, a pure casual who has issues with gamepad in general. For those who struggle let me say this. It took me 1 week to kill 1st boss, it took me 16 attempts to kill 2nd boss and i didnt even think i would get to 3rd boss. But this game is so rng that you cant give up, all it takes is 1 solid run and a little bit of luck, i got to this boss and had no items, just a lot of integrity and lvl 10 lobber weapon, the one with poision damage over time, i basically killed him in 3rd phase before i even pushed me back, the weapon is amazing for this!
Yeah i got so lucky on my way to him and got 2 major health vials and 4 small ones 😁 the runs before i was pretty much as unlucky as you can get and only got really bad malfunctions like that one when you need to kill 4 enemies at the same time to remove.
Just beat it on an amazing run that took about 3 hours through all three biomes. I had the carbine leveled up to 15. I beat it on the first try using your guide it was extremely helpful. Thanks
This is the way.
way to puzzy through a game lol
Nice one. I beat him today thanks to this guide. I was really worried with my weapon being the rotblaster (level 14) but it actually made the fight a lot easier. DoT FTW
Thanks! Absolutely annihilated him with a lobber in 1st try. Quite a game
Thanks for the guide. I thought the pushback was when you got too close, now I know to just run up and thirst him.
Happy to help! It's still a bit confusing what is actually triggering the pushback, but the good news is that it doesn't deal damage to you, so just go nuts haha.
Lvl 15 carbine an 265% health trackerstorm alt with a refresh consumable and i can happily say i beat a returnal boss first try! Phrike was the hardest took me like 15 tries maybe more an the 2nd boss i was pushin 10 attempts b4 i got him but this guy got the business in our first encounter thx to plenty of life an powerful gun!
Because of your guide I was prepared and beat him on the first try
Congrats!!
Same here
Beat him second try same life with the astronaut thanks to you :)
Spent an hour and a half 100 percenting stage 1 and 2 areas. Got max health. Great weapon profesciency and strong ass rotgland lobber (which I think is the best gun in the game). Hella healables and perks/resources. Did this boss on my first try with ease first time fighting him. Took like 3 minutes. No struggle whatsoever. Thanks for the guide
Today is the day, this dude is finally going down
Not only does this boss kick your ass, there’s these drone asshats that could annihilate your 4 hour grind with their 99% accurate homing missiles
second half of the game is so much easier than the first half LMFAO
still at Biome 3 and hoping to god you are right lol
@@JustHeretoTrollallday almost 2hrs to get to the 3rd boss through pervious biomes, and boss kill me on the second phase
now that I’m at Biome 6, I’ll say yes and no lol. biome 4 and 6 is pretty easy, biome 5 is a bitch...
@@valerakarpenko8079 keep at it brotha once you reach phase 3 I feel like it’s the easiest phase with Nemesis, you can zip around and some platforms are tilted enough to basically give you some sort of a cover
@@JustHeretoTrollallday man, yesterday i killed fourth boss on my first try)
I've beaten all the Soulsborne games multiple times Sekiro included done bl4 and sl1 runs and this game is one of the hardest games I've ever played and yet it's one of the best games I've ever played.
i just finally reached him!!! i felt so good!! i lost but i did it !! lol
I just got to this boss and if it wasn’t for a coop summon I would never have beat him this fight was crazy!!
I beat it on my 1st try with a level 15 weapon. It was an epic battle!!!
Good and at the same time tough game,beat that shit today on my first try..
Way to the top of the tower was harder than actually boss itself💪
Derelict Citadel went from my least favorite to my favorite biome. Totally agree that the journey is harder than the boss. The little flying enemies were a total nightmare for me until I started using the Thermogenic Launcher.
Thanks for the tips, phase 1 and 2 were very easy but 3 is a pain.
Sadly trophies are bugged for me and for others too it seems...
I beat the game and haven't gotten a trophy since Ixion. I'm with you :(
I should have watched the guide before facing him. He got me good on the first try
I came here with 285% integrity and a lvl 15 hallowseeker with 3 traits, astronout, revival parasite, leech artifact and healing item (big one). But still the biggest help was this video, so cheers for that 🙌
Thank you so much
This game is great but stressful. You put so much into each run to build your character up. When you get to the boss, it's so nerve racking. The thought of failure sucks. Kinda makes you make jittery mistakes. But this boss on my third time, and then realized he is quite easy if you relax and do your thing. I like the Electropylon gun the best. That gun is BOSS!!!
Finally beat him! Used level 15 hollowseeker with portal beam. Stats: +2 weapon damage, +10 protection, + 25 repair, - 2 cool down. I really think it was the portal beam that stole the show. Also I was constantly moving, even when the platforms start shifting. I ended up almost on top of him. Had small health vial I used but really didn't need to.
hollowseeker
Me hitting my head against the wall for sticking to my hollowseeker 10* instead of switching to the thermal weapon 12* because of increased fire rate. Did very low damage and died. Lesson learned. Thanks.
Did him on first try. Btw. rapid fire (not sure if it is a correct english name for this weapon skill) is the most op weapon skill you can get.
You must be really good it took me 60 tries at least
Omg when u tell u I was stuck on this boss for decades… it honestly takes skill to beat this game not health packs or upgrades.. plus coop could mess you up sometime too
i watched this guide just in case first time i managed to get to him. Little did i know that with lvl 15 rifle with leeching he was kinda easy :D
You sir...THANK YOU. First try. I did have an astronaut artifact. I died during the 3rd phase. Came back beat this virus on the first try. Used Electropylon driver *14
Just spent 2 hours farming up a really nice build and fought this guy for the first time and did almost no damage to him :( I'll try a different weapon next time I guess! Nice guide though!
Same! My lvl 11 Hollowseeker was complete junk...
3rd Phase I was all like "WTF IS GOING ON😱😱😱"
To note, the 'fire ground' attack happens if you take too long in phase 2 as well, just the boss isn't as crazy with the attacks.
I finished this boss using a level 10 carabine. Overall I think using a hitscan weapon it’s usually better because of the instant damage 😂 rather tan higher weapons with slow damage, at least for now
some more tips for the third phase:
- You can fall infinitely far down so you don't have to wait on the platforms. Just move forward always and if there is no platform, just jump down had use your grappling hook when you see a platform. There's no fall damage
- You are invincible when using the grappling hook, you can really use that to your advantage when you're dodging bullets in phase 3
- The protection stat is super OP. In biome 3 (or 6) you can easily have 60-95% protection (I have this nearly every run) making you almost invincible
Where do you find that much protection?
@@olvinWTF this way really long ago lol. From what I remember just pick up every opportunity, mainly the shops. Also explore the whole map, every nook and cranny.
However since a year ago them might have patched this
Went bavk to it last week after getting stuck on the 2nd boss, I'm just on 4th biome now... Great game, you really need to build yourself up and not rush it... The shortcuts done me, was going to the boss too early...
Thanks for the tips! It was the opposite for me though. I took no dmg 1st phase a little the 2nd and a ton of dmg the 3rd. Got it 1st try though
Man this game looks insane.i got a little dizzy at all the colors coming at me😂😂😂good gameplay though
Have you ever played Outland, also by Housemarque? I know everyone compares the bosses in this game to Ikaruga on steroids, but Outland is a lesser known little gem where you also dodged a lightshow of bullets during boss fights.
I haven't! The only Housemarque games I've played are Resogun and Matterfall.
the rotgland lobber is so so good for this boss fight at stage 3 i dont even need to get close to him to deal consistent damage, and can hide behind the platforms for the projectiles too! try it!
I just beat him today (1st attempt) with that weapon. The DoT is awesome
Finally got to the boss but had a crap weapon. couldnt get to the third phase cuz it took so long, I couldn't outlast him
Died at phase 3 with about 30% enemy health left. Had to grapple two platforms fairly close, and as I ascended the last platform, I got struck by 2 stray purple missile swarm thingies. Should've taken the health packs instead of the damage siphons :(
I love this game, but I'm so stuck with 3rd boss! I wanna scream 😱
Just died here, but I'm cleared all pervisios biome an firs time came to boss. Soon I will beat him I think.
This boss is really easy if you have the Tachyomatic Carbine (Killsight) level 12, I won in the first try!
Of course I had the resurrection parasite on.
WOOOOOO! I JUST FUCKING BEAT HIM. LET'S FUCKING GO!
2 hours. Lvl 11 Hollowseeker, near max integrity, survive a killing blow parasite, went it with max adrenaline shield on, had 2 more shields, and small silphium. Got pushed back by nemesis THREE times and I couldn't recover. The gameplay is so fun but maybe this game just isn't for me, I wish I had all the time in the world to master it but with my job I just barely have time for games and when I do I don't want to feel like trash. But at least ghost of Tsushima directors cut is freaking awesome.
So basically I need to go everywhere and find everything I possibly can to ensure the best weapon and items before attempting the boss
That's pretty much the name of the game, unless you're sick with it.
Yeah I cleared biomes 1,2, and 3 and by the time I got to this boss I had max weapon efficiency with a lvl 14 gun with max HP
Sure been nice to have a rocket laucher for this fight =D
Do you recommend the spitmaw for fighting bosses like this or is it up to personal preference
Everything is personal preference, but I wouldn't recommend a weapon where the alt-fire is doing the majority of the damage. That's the only thing I'd stay away from. A pistol is viable, though. Totally up to your comfort level.
Beat it in one try for this boss. Now on biome 4. Still 3 biome to go
Bro I just did this fight with the hollow seeker I think and boy was it bad
I just fought him for the first time and made it to phase 3. I messed up by switching weapons halfway through the level because I wanted to unlock a new trait. I should of stayed with what I had.
Managed to beat this bitch first time thanks to your great tips, my man.
Thank you.
Stay safe and keep helping the masses. ^_^
I know there’s a big red “fuck me” light on its chest, but honestly, for a good 10 sec I didn’t know what I had to shoot at, so I tried the big blue head and the aliens first.
Best weapon to use is the Electropylon Driver. Most of the time you can focus avoiding hits, dashing and moving from platform to platform while the ED is doing its job. Just be sure to have a good power bonus attack and enough integrity.
Didn't know that was unlocked before this boss.🤣
Yeah I’ve not heard of that weapon. Just beat boss with rotblaster (14). I was worried I’d need something with continuous fire but it actually worked really well
Beat him first try! Maxed out Integrity, two large silphium vials, shield vial, astronaut relic, and level 15 Rotgland lobber. He didn’t even Stand A Chance. DEAL WITH IT HOUSEMARQUE!!
I was lucky to beat this boss on my first try with a lvl.8 Tachyomatic Carbine with (Bonus Damage 6)
I noticed a couple times that I damaged the aliens on his side when they were shooting/done with shooting their beams. Unfortunately i was sooo stressed about it (it's my third encounter with the asshole) that I couldn't experiment much on what does that actually means. Anyone noticed this or know anything?
Fuck yeah, I did it in one try! Took me a lot of deaths in the room before though.
I have the feeling that keep calm and if you don't, run and get your s*** together. I have the feeling that my timing with dodges etc. is getting better. Fun to feel this, just like Souls game.
