His ridiculous strength is good for a chuckle the first couple times, but man I wish the fight wasn't such a risk for so lil reward every single time. It's basically just my hate that keeps bringing me back I'm doing it to myself.
I know I'm just salty cuz he ended a good start. I've beaten the game and I clear my runs through pretty much anytime I don't borrow the obol. Either take his health down a bit, ease the damage, or make his reward worth the fight. I get the fight is almost a joke more than anything and his strength is a meme, but I feel it needs some balancing. Which for such a hard fight 20% is all you get? Couldn't even go 25%? While being taken for over half your hp for any slip-up (which effectively becomes one shot for all of your DD) hes simultaneously one of the tankiest units in the game. That is unless you come in late game and negate over half the reward by not having the discount for earlier shops. This fight is much easier to read tbf, then but in the chaos he comes up with that oar and takes over half your health in one hit. I hate this fight in the same way I hate the Asphodel witch miniboss, for covering the screen with projectiles. Yet another area of the game where you are set at a pretty significant disadvantage if you are doing a melee weapon run.
I typically go through most if not all my DD fighting him. However, defeating him in Tartarus or Asphodel will give the player more opportunities to use the Loyalty Card.I know he's optional I don't have to fight him but fuck me yes I do. The fight has the same difficulty regardless of the biome, so players will have the best chance of defeating Charon if they initiate the fight in Elysium, after they've received some boons. At 20% max HP, Charon will call off the fight, granting Zagreus a Loyalty Card for his troubles, and you also get to keep the 300 Charon's Obol "borrowed" from him. At 75% max HP and 45% max HP, Charon will shatter two of the golden jars, destroying the player's cover from his attacks. Stun Wave: If too close to Charon, he will pulse a wave that deals knockback and a brief stun to the player.
Oar Swipe: Moving to the player, Charon swipes his oar twice in a wide range, dealing heavy damage if caught.
As the battle progresses, Charon will send up to three waves. Floor Wave: Charon pushes a small wave that bounces once around the room towards the player.

Throughout the battle, the pattern changes depending on his health (he also hovers to the center of the room instead), sending waves from the top and bottom, both east and west sides in a V-shaped pattern, or in a full room rotation counter-clockwise. Ghost Charge: Charon hovers to the sides of the field, sending a wave from the west or east side of the room. Initiating a fight with the player, the boatman has the following attacks. If the player steals the sack, Charon will send Zagreus into a room in Erebus filled with his treasures and four tall, golden jars. It only appears at shops mid-way through biomes, not ones immediately preceding a boss fight, and requires that you have beaten the final boss at least once. Taken from A sack of 300 Charon's Obol randomly appears behind him under some circumstances.
