So for quite some time now I have wanted to make my own freak fortress 2 boss and when I tried hosting my own private freak fortress 2 server on linode to test out bosses I did actually try to rig existing models from sketchfab that are not up on there anymore which sucks because I am having a hard time finding decent good looking models that would work and I suck at 3d modelling.
The boss I wanted to make is based on the Asterix comic book series from France which I used to read as a kid I also watched several of the movies growing up and also played the awesome 90's arcade game from Konami.
Trying to rig these models in the first place was not fun at all because my models kept on glitching when testing animations in the model viewer such as arms going through the head of the model even after double checking and fixing multiple times the weight paint and even just starting the rigging process from the beginning and eventually I kind of just gave up for a while because I got so sick of my models being glitchy.

As for the boss mechanics I obviously want it to be a duo boss where two players can become either Asterix or Obelix and basically I want to it to remain faithful to the lore of the comics where they are insanely overpowered.
One of the things I would like to add is that for Asterix at low health a magic potion is able to be collected on the map which fills the rage meter to 100 percent refills the boss health restores any lost boss lives and stuns all nearby players also 1 hit kills become active and hits on players cause them to fly up into the sky like in the comics before dying.
As for the attacks one of them could be the grappling moves from the arcade game seen in the video .
Any suggestions would be appreciated as I am kind of new to boss making.
And of course for Obelix instead of potions there would have to be a large piece of food that basically does the same thing.
Obviously that is not all I would like to add but this is part of how I want my duo boss to be played and as I already know how to write scripts of my own it should not be as hard.
The music is something I have been thinking about and I am thinking this would fit perfectly
