great description, that's exactly what i've been doing.. a pair of giant caution cones to run around that block her ice bombs.. but she does need a nice flat space to land.. otherwise you're trying to fight her on a mountainside, which is janky

I used a Bow. Zero melee.

I leveled off two chunks of mountain and built little shacks on top.

and I "sculpted" some parts of the mountains into basically upright pylons, so I could use them as cover. I'd keep moving so the pylons were between me and moder, then step out to shoot.

I didn't stand directly behind the pylons, that turned out to be a bad idea, but kept a pretty good distance back from them. The main idea was to let their attacks hit the pylons instead of me.

It was a bit of work, but I came back and killed moder numerous times, so I got to reuse my "arena" repeatedly.

oh I killed her, just saying she feels a little jank

I just killed her last night. I was all set, had bonfires all over the place, bonemass skill ready and a crystal battleaxe ready to do some stupid damage and yet whenever she landed it was near the cliff and when i got there she would take to the skies for several minutes.

I had to resort to the tedious bow kill. Died when she was within a few shots left when i lost sight of her, got attacked by a damned drake AND wolf at almost the same time, and caught a stray direct hit iceball. Thankfully, I did manage to kill them both right before dying so i had a straight shot to my corpse.

Recovered everything(after 2 tries at equipping) and dropped her within 30 seconds. Happy kitten time! Last time i killed her, she kept landing and flew for a few moments, this time, air blue ♥♥♥♥♥. Go figure.
