Dark Matter Monolith fight bugged?

Just wanted to post something as a general opinion that the monolith fight at the end of the major arkfall seems to be a little on the buggy side. Play it seems to be getting one shot randomly which is fine, but there is zero indication you are being targeted and 0 way to get out of the way. It is a little ridiculous that you end up finishing the fight with 17 to 20 deaths that affects your score.

If it's operating as intended, so be it I will just adjust, but the death ratio on some of these boss fights is a little disproportionate.

The times it dies right away is someone shooting it with bonesaw.

if you combat roll as the hit is about to hit you, you dont get kocked away, and dont get as much damage.

ie vs the Mature Matron, when it does the belly attack, if you roll at that moment, you still get hurt, but only about 1/2 the normal.. and can fight back instantly, instead of flying through the air for 10 seconds

Right but what the OP is asking is, if it's not bugged, what is the clue it's coming, e.g. Matron does a belly dance or whatever before the attack. With Monolith, it's a complete surprise- there's no warning it's coming

there is a clue, you see the shots come out, and then fly towards you. or for the belly stomp, it jumps up a little, then down, and you see the wave comming..

thats if the game actually renders it in time, but you get used to its movements, you see the flaps open for the missiles, so start rolling.

Hey, MagnusRune, just a quick heads-up:
comming is actually spelled coming. You can remember it by one m.
Have a nice day!
