Cavalcadence plays Nocturna 38: Alternating Humanoid/Bat (Low Percent win) (All Zones Mode: SYNCHRONY)
So... way back when Synchrony was first released into Early Access, I noticed in the patch notes that a number of changes had been made to Nocturna's final boss battle.
In Amplified, Nocturna's final boss was IMO almost certainly the hardest character-specific Boss to defeat in Low Percent, due to the very real possibility of getting swarmed and overwhelmed by the summons in the final phase (in Low Percent, Nocturna only has a 1-damage weapon)! =p
Looking over the Synchrony changes to her final boss, though... overall, it looked like things had been adjusted so that Low% (and normal runs as well) would no longer be quite so difficult in that final phase! =)
The basic changes that made things easier were: max number of summons reduced, summons can't appear quite as close to Nocturna, and the Batteries have slightly less health.
The Batteries were also made immune to player bomb damage (ah well, I guess Blast Helm won't be quite as useful for Nocturna now!)... though that was probably done for balance purposes (either general balance or speedrunning balance), due to the other changes making things easier. ^^
Anyway... since Low% Nocturna would almost certainly be easier with these changes, I kind of wanted to record another Low% run at some point... but of course, with all the other new things added with Synchrony, I umm, never quite got around to getting back to Low% Nocturna...
Until now. =)
And as you can tell from the video Title, I decided to make it an Alternating Humanoid/Bat run as well, since that was pretty fun, the last time I recorded one of those. ^_^
So... anyway, here it is! My first ever Synchrony Nocturna Low Percent win! Hope you enjoy!
