Jump to target, and swings his Infested Left Arm straight  ( Stagger in radius )

Grabbed warframe could only use his secondary weapon.

Can make him drop warframe from his hand by giving some dmg to "Left Arm"

(you will be stomped in the ground if u are lucky :P )

Modified Lephantis :D

interesting, I like the concept of having a boss where you can't just wildly shoot, and you have to manage the boss's HP. then again, depending on how high the boss's level is, some powerful weapons may still be able to tear through it and bypass all the cool phase stuff. although it sounds like you're supposed to avoid phase 2, so, maybe that's fine. the alternative to this is to make it so that you can't just defeat the boss outright from phase 1 (like the lephantis, where after the first phase, then you can actually defeat it). basically don't have the HP carry over into phase 3, such that phase 3 has its own HP pool. I suppose that works. the design for the beast would be pretty cool, too, it sounds like. plus, long-ranged infested! (sort of. although technically not, since it would be the grineer half that's shooting..ah, never mind the technicalities)

I like the idea of the new interaction with the grab. I mean, in the game right now we just get staggered or knocked down. Why not add a grab animation? 

 

Imagine leapers flying at you and if they do manage to hit you, they whack your face while you're on your back. Lol

Interesting, a boss that encourages careful balancing of enemy health instead of just spraying with high DPS weapons. Still, I'd prefer that gimmick to be reserved for the Sisters.

 

Not liking the grab idea unless you can still shoot while grabbed, since it sounds like really annoying stunlock.

 

I'm not too sure on the whole phase structure honestly, since it is encouraged to keep the boss' health balanced and AVOID going into the other two phases. Here's a thought. What if, when one half of the boss is killed, if the other half is not killed in 3 seconds, the surviving half takes over, heals completely and begins its respective phase 3? Meanwhile, if you keep their health balanced for long enough, such has having both of them within the 10% range while both are below half health, the two halves may call "truce" and work together to kill you first, resulting in an alternate Phase 3?

Well phase3 is mostly has high damage patterns to KILL who didnt pay attention on hp. So its more like time attack than a new pattern.

But yeah, giving full hp in phase 3 is a nice idea if it has some videos and appearance change, but if not..... :(

Well most of the users will fail to control the hp

 

1. this game doesn't show two hp bar at once. 

2. you have to rescue your team who has been grabbed (need to deal Left Arm)
3. Also the armor type is different ( infested/Grineer ) so that dmg given to Left Arm and Grineer will also different by your weapon

:)

[Black-Foxx]

sounds like he would be fun to fight.
