I have a few I hate. Those decoy trees are a pain to kill. Those gloom hands are scary AF. Only dealt with 1 but it was terrifying Anything gloom is annoying.

Gloom hands are the worst.

Puffshrooms are your friend here.

[-] Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

What's your experience with them. I was flying down from sky island to a shrine somewhere near necluda. Didn't have enough stamina so I fall and gloom hand chases me and I barely survive

[-] khanti@the.asbestos.cafe 1 points 1 year ago

@Bicyclejohn @YoBuckStopsHere I use elemental arrows, especially with gemstones

[-] Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Why waste gems? Isn't fire fruit enough?

[-] YoBuckStopsHere@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

I run into them in unexpected areas and it's always when I don't have bomb arrows.

By endgame, my least favorite enemy by FAR were the stalblins. Nothing in my inventory with less than 55 power and these dorks want 2 durability for 2 damage.

[-] FlagonOfMe@sh.itjust.works 13 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Dazzlefruit kills whole groups of stal monsters instantly.

[-] Scooter411@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

Explain plz. Like, do you just throw them at the ground?

[-] statlerwaldorf@vlemmy.net 6 points 1 year ago

Yep, just toss one at the ground in the center of them all. It has a pretty large radius and will one shot kill the group.

Any of the usual methods. Throw them, use an arrow, or Fuse them to a weapon. They're particularly effective on a Korok weapon because they can be used over and over.

Stal monsters can only exist in darkness, so the bright light kills them.

[-] korok@possumpat.io 1 points 1 year ago

Agreed, I’m not even close to endgame but I’m already rolling my eyes when these guys show up.

I started shooting them with arrows though, to take care of them in just one hit/durability. Will have to try FlagonOfMe’s suggestion of dazzlefruit as well.

[-] Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I'm in early game to early mid and I agree with you too

[-] Rozz 1 points 1 year ago

I just runaway, or maybe use my helpers attacks (if anyone beside me still has them around)

[-] sirbrialliance@diggit.xyz 5 points 1 year ago

Red enemy: one-shot it. Blue enemy: kill in three hits. Silver enemy: I have to hit that thing soooo many times, even with a high-damage weapon.

[-] TheTrueLinuxDev@beehaw.org 2 points 1 year ago

That basically why I stock up on damage boosting meals and carry some Lynel Saber weapons that net you like 70+ damage after a fuse and potentially 120+ if you have a fusion boosting weapon. You can endlessly repair those sort of weapons by heading to death mountain to find a few rock octos. Combined with Tarry Town for breaking Lynel Saber off your broken weapon, once you have 10+ Silver Lynel Sabers, you are pretty much golden and you can reuse it however many times you want.

I always find myself using heavier weapon so I can just spin attack on silver enemy, they die fast after taking a few round.

I also have a laser turret to cheese the army of silver enemies if I needed to though those can be expensive, like 100+ zionites depending on batteries.

[-] robanmix@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 year ago

i always use a 3 shot bow with bombs when i see the hands, definitely unlocked new phobia

[-] geolaw@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Get up high above the gloom hands, then fire bomb arrows

[-] Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Is there a way to trigger the hand tho? I'm stronger now and really need dark clumps

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago

I’m not sure what you mean by trigger. They appear in certain spots like every enemy. If you go there you will find them.

[-] Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Oh I thought it was like the stal monsters

[-] LibertyLizard@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The stal monsters work the same way. They spawn in certain areas but only reveal themselves when you get close (at night). So for both they will appear when you go to the right area.

[-] robanmix@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

idk about the triggering, tho the best way to get dark clumps is to exchange poes in the underground from the statues

[-] meejle@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

Anything ice- or electric-themed.

Dropping your weapon or being frozen in place every few seconds is such a pain in the butt. 😬

[-] Zink@pawb.social 2 points 1 year ago

Don't forget your rito armor or rubber armor, as set bonus makes you impervious to freezing and electricity. There is another item that a certain group stole, however, that provides the same effect as the rubber set.

[-] Bicyclejohn@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

Elected keese suck.

[-] caballeroAguila@lemmy.fmhy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

I hate oktoroks so much. They are not difficult by any means, just annoying while I am trying to do something else.
