    Unpopular opinion but I like boss runbacks.

    To me it feels like “if you don’t survive the journey, you’re too weak for the boss itself” it brings me down and makes me calmer until I reach the boss.

      I like them because I will think what I did wrong, not just going to do that wrong thing again until I get lucky with my wrong strategy.

      I like them because it forces you to try to salvage a fight instead of just conceding after a bad start. The time spent getting to the boss is investment you don’t want to waste.

      I think this is really just an issue of the tools and abilities not being inherently linked to the related bosses.

      FYI quickhop attacking is faster than ground combos and you can weave in the trio dagger throws when you are dodging away from close attacks. Also your attack will negate enemy attacks weapon hitbox(but you still have to dodge bodily contact). The poison tool upgrade is overbalanced and makes a lot of fights a joke.
