After beating Trauma Team I was kinda disappointed with Twisted Rosalia because like that's it? That's the final boss? I beat it first try, no problem! Come on, give me a final boss like savato!

I just got to Aletheia in Under the Knife 2 and uh. Wish granted. This thing kicked my ass

#original #trauma center #i said i “just got to” aletheia but that's a lie i just didn't have time to make this post earlier today #i actually just got done S-ranking it lol #it honestly wasn't THAT hard... until phase 3 with those fucking bythos #bythos is the hardest neo-guilt TWICE now for completely different reasons #it's hard on its own because while its attacks are no problem extracting that core is a BITCH #but during aletheia extracting the core is super easy. but its attack... SO fucking obnoxious #it spawns a cut under the skin. you don't know where. it's barely even telegraphed so you might not even know it happened #and if you dare touch aletheia while there's a hidden cut then it bursts and you get punished #compare that to its normal fight where the cut is obviously telegraphed and you know exactly where it is #AND even if you FIND the cut there might be more! you can't tell! you just have to check everywhere!#and while you're dealing with the cuts in a 4-step process (ultrasound -> scalpel -> drain -> suture) it's PLANTING MORE CUTS!!!#i think the strat is to just race through the bythos wave and not bother going for aletheia damage #just get rid of the damn things asap and deal with the cuts after they're gone #the sige wave that comes afterward is WAY easier to deal with because you can ACTUALLY FUCKING SEE THE ATTACKS!!!#also the sige waves have a really satisfying rhythm to them. drain -> gel -> scalpel -> hit aletheia. i like it :D #AND! even when you deal with bythos' cuts properly they STILL DEAL DAMAGE!!!!!!! YOU CAN'T WIN!!!!!!#pempti is probably way worse but fortunately both of the pempti phases are avoidable if you deal enough damage lol #pempti is a punishment for taking too long on the 1st or 3rd phases #ALSO the hidden bythos cuts will burst and punish you if you take too long to find them. because fuck you #honestly still not as hard as savato
