Thanks! And oh damn. There's a whole wall missing from the bit of level geometry there. No wonder You can get stuck in it. I wonder what happened to it. Probably accidentally deleted a portion of the wall while adjusting platforms or something. Got to update the build and fix it.

I did some changes to the blue drakes. Hopefully the broken AI doesn't break further, but they now attack less frequently so you don't have to sweat so hard when there's two of them around. Did some stamina related changes as well when guarding their attacks. 

You're right in that the most reliable way to deal with the blue drakes is to pin them against a wall where they can't run away from you. They used to be even faster backing away from the player, but that made them super infuriating. I made them speedy so that in 1-on-1 situations they would be more difficult to deal with, but I never really thought about how well it meshes with having more than one enemy in the scene. Especially since there are very few moments where you can actually fight with one alone.

They're the kind of enemy you want to hang close to so they don't attack, but you need to position yourself in a way where you can still keep an eye on them. That is a tad annoying to do though, especially if you're trying not to die to the other drakes.

You're right about the boss fight ideal range being in the middle. The boss was going to have a couple of more attacks for different threat ranges. Noticed early on that she would sometimes spam the same attacks too much which results in the player having to wait for their turn for a long while at times and then if you mess it up and have to block an attack, you might completely lose the opening for the retaliation.

 I didn't get the extra attacks implemented in though, mainly because the there's a giant design error in the animation rig (You can spot some weird crazyness happening with her wrists for example when she moves), which I only noticed way way way late into making all the animations for her, and fixing it would have forced me to remake all her animations from the scratch. So, unless I completely redo her afterwards, she's kind of stuck with what she has for now. Another option would just try and force new animations in using the broken rig. I don't think anybody would notice even if I used broken animations. Haha.
