* * THIS WAS THE FIRST ATTEMPTED WHEN XH LOSER WAS FIRST REVEALED. * * Loser was different in SH back then so the XH change caught many people off.
My favorite boss in the entire game and they did what they should have done for ALL bosses in Extra Hard, and add some new moves and strategies to beat him.
When you break the clock in XH, it gets fogged over becoming extremely resistent to all attacks. In order to move it, you must break the two arm cores he has. I didn't really notice this because I have never attacked his arms in forever, but after watching my playthrough of this while it was being rendered, it was then when I saw that when you break an arm core and reveal his neck core, the arm core does not come back.
After you break the two arm cores, his clock opens and it is basically the same fight. He has some new attacks and added effects to several of his current ones. After 50% HP, He gets extremely aggressive.
The only other attack to really watch out for is that in XH, he now does a double time stop. and casts the field wipe move twice in one go when he does it the second time.
10:25 Double Time Freeze
He is a fun fight and I don't care if the drops for him are messed up right now, I seriously enjoyed this ( even if I didn't know what I was doing in the beginning. )
