When you go back to your ship and shoot him at the beach with cannon balls, Graymarrow's Ghost will just sit there and try to damage you with his low-range-chest-clap things. My suggestion here would be to make him able to throw those chest towards you and damage your ship if he can't reach you.
FOTD Boss Fight Too Easy
@peteloaf777 said in FOTD Boss Fight Too Easy:
I’d be cautious to use the term too easy, because of his insane health bar. But the general sentiment that there should be more variety and more mechanics involved - yes, agree. They should also add a health bar above him.
More health doesn't higher the difficulty on the fight itself but rather gives other crews the chance to join the fight.
The fact that if you're staying on your ship Graymarrow would just be a bullet sponge makes himself as the boss fight no challenge.
So he actually is too easy.EDIT: In my opinion, of course

lurk him to the pier and sniper, pistol nonstop.
If you have kegs, well, but do that in the midle of the way up behin that turret in the middle. 100% a big hit :)
Did 3 runs this morning, Gray was down in no time this way, no we dint use Mega Kegs, but afaik its 20 Mega Kegs and 20 normals to onehit him.@freakaddelle sagte in FOTD Boss Fight Too Easy:
@bugaboo-bill so you just shoot him with guns from your ship? That's practically the same thing for me as he still can't hit you
He shoot you, but yeah, not really.
Cheese the fight and of course it's going to be easy. People are always going to find cheeses.. if you want a challenge then don't use the ship. He already has enough health and is hard enough. Games not really mean't to be 'hard'. Just consuming and luck based. Getting commendations isn't hard, just time consuming. Killing skeletons is not hard, they just overwealm you with numbers.
It's funny how people want the game to be more "hard" when they play the "easiest" way because they can't kill a boss in a "normal" way...
If you kill Graymarrow with cannonballs (which a lot of players still do) it means that it's already hard for you to fight with sword, blunderbuss, pistol,... isn't?
The only smart things this boss needs for me are:- health bar
- decrease the health so players enjoy more the fight on the ground instead from the ship
- ofc more mechanics because it can be boring do the same things over and over
Now the interesting thing I see here is "you're picking the easiest way of killing him". I mean I could as well try to kill him only with gun powder skeletons he spawns but what's the deal with that when I get the option to just shoot him from far away without getting punished for that? Why should I pick a more difficult way to do something than a fundamental mechanic of the whole game? Do you guys try to kill skeletons with snake poison because they're easy, too?
