you want to know something really funny? i believe that going turmoil could be even better because it gives the enemies small stat boosts. It shouldnt matter vs the boss but it will probably matter when the enemies are trying to kill pyris. Might be the difference between taking 2 hits vs 1! Cant go calamity bc picking wounds at the beginning wastes time
Turmoil only gives max HP increases to the enemies, it's only at calamity where they gain str and int boosts. 15% increase to health is a lot though... for the final boss it might outweigh the potential for taking fewer hits throughout the run, especially if it requires 3 monsters instead of 2 to defeat. Might even be a signficant alternate category for speedrunning 🤔.
