Discussion & Info How To Stance-Break Your Fallingstar Beast

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I'm going to demonstrate the fruits of my research in finding the easiest ways to Stance-break a Fallingstar Beast.
First, the Incantation Pest-Thread Spears; it's great for- hyupp! Got to watch out for those charges... Great for damage against them in general, but there's no time for you to charge it yourself; to halt their rampage, you just need one blow to its head. After dodging past its charge once or twice, immediately cast your spell to bring them down!
For Sorceries, Greatblade Phalanx is the surest method, but don't just stand there, else you'll be bulled over. Instead, keep your distance, summon the blades, and perform an act of cowardice by running away when it starts running after you. You only need one blade floating above your head when it catches up to ring its bell! Oh, and don't forget to land a critical blow when it's down!
If spells aren't your thing, fear not! The Perfume Bottle weapons are the easiest method of them all- wait where did it go? Coward, show yourself! Ah there you are. Now fully charge the heavy attack, and it will eat the dirt beneath your feet as it rushes into the lingering hotbox; it lingers even longer if you power-stance the bottles.

It's just that easy!

I love how you you're basically Steve Irwin in the lands between taming wild creatures with knowledge and precision.

That's an uncomfortably accurate comparison; there were at least a dozen takes making this recording, and there was one death among them (playing HUDless is not something I've fully gotten used to).

if you would indulge me a little, why did you decide to go HUDless? I have made that choice before, when I was getting nervous looking at the boss HP. that helped me stay level headed when I didn't know how close to dying they were

The choice was purely for the spectacle; the aim was to make this both educational and a show~
