Just killed one of the bosses and have a question about it

I just killed the Mantis after about 10 attempts. Despite winning, this fight pissed me off since it felt hella unfair. I had to basically run away like a puss the entire time and bait attacks. Does this boss have straight up unblockable abilities? I swore I was perfectly timing parries on the scream and the super jump move and those had a 100% hit rate on me. Is this just a skill issue or are these moves just busted?

Funny thing about this fight is that I was expecting an equal headache vs the Wasp Queen but she went down in one attempt, no food buffs or drinks needed.

Yeah I’m playing solo on Whoa difficulty and after way too many attempts I am convinced it is not possible to melee the Mantis and survive. I also believe some of his attacks cannot be parried. I had to eventually drop the melee setup and just do a salt arrow build and range it.

Wasp queen was infinitely worse and took everything I had to bring it down.

Stuff

I'm only on medium difficulty and on my first ever playthrough. Decided to go full melee so I can actually get involved with every mechanic. Sometimes I regret it, but we're gettin the job done lol.

I think I had such an easier time with the Wasp Queen cuz she felt like she didn't really attack all that much. As long as I dodged her bombarding move, I felt like I was chillin. I think the salt mace was stunning her a lot cuz she spent a good amount of time not flying sometimes.

With all this being said, I don't wanna imagine things on Whoa! difficulty. I'll probably never get around to that. I just became big again and while Grounded was a good experience, it's one of those games that's getting shelved for the remainder of life once I plat the game.

Some attacks of Mantis you have to strafe sideways to avoid instead of parrying.

Yes it does. It´s easiest to kill with salt arrows while using the middle section of the arena to block its pounces. Makes this fight very easy. Headshots deal extra damage btw.

To add to this, it's not headshots specifically. You need to hit him in the eyes to do the extra damage.

Oh ok. Thanks for the correction. It´s been a while since I played the last time and I totally forgot about that detail.
