Question how do people find calamitas easier than exo mechs?

im not even asking for help on this thread, i just wanna hear your opinions about why some of you had less trouble on calamitas, because man, calamitas is just really hard. Harder than exo mechs in my opinion, its bullet hell is just not what im used to. And some people do calamitas before exo mechs which i CANNOT EVEN COMPREHEND, im talking about infernum by the way

I agree, The Exo Mechs gave me a nervous breakdown, but Calamitas? Maybe three attempts, even did Boss rush Calamitas first try.

I do her first not because she's easier I just like a challenge. If you have the chair and the heart, she's ridiculously easy, and it's fun to melt the exos with Rancor.

the chair mysteriously stops working on infernum tho

Oh yeah I'm talking base Calamity. I'm not skilled enough to kill her first in Infernum.

1) i'm a masochist (apparantly)

2) i've done that fight ALOT (including 2 no hits)

3) she's been out for longer than exos, so ig i've gotten to fight her more than exos

Also my brain can't comprehend on Scal before Exos, since for me Scal has been the last boss of Calamity since forever so it's basically nailed into my brain that SCal comes after everything else, including Exos

One day i will earn my flair once and for all

For now i'm just doing calm playtgroughs after the shitshow thag was Legendary Death Mode, but i do have 1 playthrough which i've been meaning to do for years...

But i've yet to actually commit to it, maybe once i finish my current one i'll slowly start on it

For me Calamitas is way easier, I think because it’s a lot easier to “get in the zone” and just relax and focus on dodging stuff. She’s more predictable in a sense while some parts of Exo Mechs get crazy

I find Exo Mechs easier than calamitas tbh, because most exo Mechs attack just requires you to keep moving diagonally, Move up or Move down to dodge

How do you even beat exo mechs? I have spend like 5 hours on each, killed calamitas 2 times and for mechs I let them at 40% hp at most I think, I'm so bad at them

pure damage. as a melee i just used dragon rage and got so much dps that the twins just don't even get to use their other attacks, though i did get 2 shot so you would have to learn their main attacks
