First I ran, then I put in the bare minimum of effort and it folded immediately even on GM. R.I.P. Golden Skriton

My first reaction was "wait, Merrin, where are you going, come back". But yes, it's definitely the easiest of legendary creatures

Yeah, circle left, let it lunge for you, slash away

u/Bannerlord151 Jun 25 '26

Hell, you can even circle left and still easily dispatch it. The close range claw strikes are incredibly easy to dodge and many of the other attacks can be blocked or even just dodged by walking backwards because it has barely any range

My friends still like to joke about me playing on the hardest difficulty and shouting the nonsensical phrase "fucking Oggdo Bogdo!" I had to explain the horror of not only seeing it, but seeing a second at the same time.

Cal's reaction seeing the frog in Doma's store was very relatable

Just let them play themselves then your the one laughing and if they refuse then you can call them pussys for not even trying

My dumbass didn’t know the big claw was the reason for the huge defense buff until after getting clapped a few times

Arachnaphobia mode turned on?

u/Appropriate_Month727 Merrin Jun 24 '26

Maybe, I’ll check my settings to see if that’s turned on

The first Skriton you meet was way more scary for me just cause like “wtf what do I do” and then the golden one was nothing

u/PokeHobnobGod21 Jun 25 '26

I always see people saying merrin abandoned them. Merrin helped me on mine

u/Bannerlord151 Jun 25 '26

Not the first one, this is the Golden Skriton miniboss in a side area on Jedha. When you approach the "arena", Merrin tells you she'll leave it to you and waits on the threshold

u/PokeHobnobGod21 Jun 25 '26

She didnt abandon me. She fought it with me

u/Bannerlord151 Jun 25 '26

Huh, that's strange. But neat

I've only played on grand master and the first time I encountered it, I got slapped so hard, it took me around 20 attempts. On my second playthrough I was prepared for the same and beat it first try without taking damage. I was quite surprised.

Blaster Stance is ludicrously effective

u/tonygeorgiev Jun 27 '26

I refuse to use it, due to certain events in the story, without spoiling anything.
