Currently, as moose woodie, I've just challenged moonclops/fearclops/crystal deerclops.

I almost died. That was a dangerous as hell fight. It's a fine boss.

 

First critique, Frames are deceased during hail. Hail starts after the fight and will probably kill you due to the high damage after escaping moonclops within an inch of your life.

Underlined is the only real critique. Performance takes a huge dip after the fight.

Death due to hail if it occurs, is something to be taken into each player's consideration IMO. A lot of us have been asking for a challenge, we got it. 

 

I'll be back with more. Chinqui.

Try Armored Bearger. I died maybe 10 times and then tried again on god mode. Still took ages since he doesn't stop the claw attack when you're tanking. New bosses are indeed challenging.

My world is in winter at the moment, so I have to challenge sleepger. Not gonna be easy on both fronts.

He mauled me alive, but he seems to be quite vulnerable to the twins

Alright, so one of my fears were confirmed. They indeed kill moblets such as grass geckos. Glommer is elsewhere at the moment, but I'm not a big fan of this mechanic even if it's brief. 

Do we know if umbralla aura prevents this? Even still, it's a pain.

The hail deals 30 damage per hit and it deals full damage on mobs.

So far it seems the umbralla is the only thing that'll protect you from hail so you can use that to protect your farms for now. Nevermind Eyebrella works too

So the aura helps, right? Not just holding it?

Well, it's something. I'm not crazy about it, but it's something...

Try fire attack against mutated deerclops. For the bear, you need run behind him, and he will try to attack you by sitting on the ground, while he is on the ground, attacking him cause him exhausted

I'm fighting bearger now. What the hell is this boss?

How the tf am I going to win?

This is a letter to the devs; Don't nerf him. I want to figure out how I'm going to get over. 

Armored bearger is dead. That was a tough one. Moose is useless in the fight. I respect it. Moose shouldn't be a one size fits all for boss fights.
