    She was arguably the second easiest of the mythical creatures you actually had to physically fight.
    It's simple: just be patient, hide behind the pillars and keep moving in the opposite direction of where she's going.
    Obviously your build will determine how quickly you kill her but even with an average build she's perfectly doable following these basic defensive maneuvers.
    I found Medusa so challenging the first time, on “easy,” that I bribed my ten-year-old son to kill her for me (and he did the Minotaur for me, too).

    I’m generally a pretty crap gamer, though. I start a lot of games (our family game library is in excess of 700 games, split between seven systems . . . Mac, PC, but I finish very few. Only a rare handful of games have enticed me enough to play for more than a half hour or so.

    I did take her (and the Minotaur) out very easily on “normal” for my NG+ playthrough, but I’d had an additional 600 hours of playtime to really get the hang of things. I did play God of War between Medusa fights, too. GoW certainly forced me to improve my skills.

    lol, yes first time was challenging but it would be easy to take them out a second time around on NG+ because your skills would have been improved.

    Hey everyone,

    Discussions of piracy are prohibited, so we probably shouldn't be discussing emulators here. I understand that there were no bad intentions here, and I appreciate your understanding. Thanks in advance.

    A bit off topic maybe but are discussions regarding modifications allowed? When I say mods I mean like the ones we see on GTA5, Skyrim and the likes (character mods, map mods etc. etc.).

    I'd say if the developers have expressed consent and/or have released a mod toolkit, then by all means. If not, that might be a question for the community management team here, though I'd probably err on the side of caution and say it's a no go.

    Any more questions, shoot me a DM so this thread can get back on track.

    Thanks!

    You do know that second wind ability is only for you health!
    Yes I know that it is for your health, when you get low health then you activate it to stay alive.

    Medusa took me two tries, I think. The Minotaur and the farting boar were more annoying by far.
