bosses????

[mn1302]

i have quite a problem killing bosses,...
atm im level 59, and 20/60 expert at magic, and 3/18 novice at sword,

the level 35 dungeon: (skeleton mine, at bloody ice)

its that mechanical thingy, (dunno its exact name)
i have him till like he has 1 health left, and than he onehitkills me,...
i guess the trick is to go back to the maze that is the room before it, when he reaches about 10% of his health, or are there other weak spots he has???
i also noticed that elemental festival doesnt damage him much,...
another problem: that shield, its so frustrating, why cant i have that shield, and him have none,....
(i get at the boss with a little more than 9 min left of time, so thats not the problem)


the level 45 dungeon (zombie thingy, at desert)

this one i ve only tried once, and well, the boss hit me a few times, and by the 4th time, the hp reload time killed me,
same problem: the damn shield, and also, here u cant run around, while in that place in bloody ice, u got enough space, to constantly use fade step, and run in circles, only stopping to cast a spell, but here, u got not much space, so how do u evade his attacks???


the level 50 dungeon (ghost ship, port lux)
group dungeon, tried when i was 52 or so, with another guy who was 53; ran out of time, being both killed once, (and we didnt realise we could just run through it, and that we didnt need to kill all monsters again, to get seals released)
tried again a bit later, with 3; that went fine, only we needed half a second later, coz the last of those 3 bosses (the guys on those thrones) , fell down, when time expired,
a bit later, tried again with 4, (all lower than level 57), we had 7 min time left, when we finished it;
so in group dungeon, its no problem, to kill boss/bosses

general trouble: what spells are good vs bosses,
coz i thought that boss in the level 35 dungeon wouldnt be able to, in a desperate last move, kill me in one hit, when i d do "weaken" on him, but that doesnt work, "freeze" that nice move u learn at novice, the same thing, it doesnt freeze bosses, so im getting kinda desperate when it comes to doing such dungeons,...
anyone got any suggestions???
(getting buffed by someone else, with vital bless and such stuff doesnt work in most cases, coz the spell is normally just worked out, by the time i d reach the boss.

and concerning that boss in the level 35 dungeon, does that guy always hit u in his last attempt, when hes almost dead, at 101% of what u can defend against????

damn, thats a long post (what should i do when server is down, for maintenance :pcguru: )

bosses are not caped, means that they'll always be stronger than you, even if you go to skeleton mine in lv 150, the boss will hit you insanely hard.

Thing is i heal then i die and i'm like in bm2 as well makes no sense if its a attack how can you dodge it if you cant see it?

that still doesnt answer how i should kill him,....
do they calculate the strength of the boss, on ur level, or on ur skill level???

Machine no name.
When he starts charging his & hit attack rnu a bit to the left and use skills. When he's half way, dash/run past the spot where he started and use some more skills.
Ignore his "head" during charging, he starts fireing on the spot where it started charging.
tba no matter what def/hp you have, the beam will & hit you. It's not a glitch, it does %damage.

Mummy mage.
Lure him in the previous room if you lack space. I still haven't found out how to evade it's 6 1hit beams, but I'll work that out later.


General tactics on bosses.
*Don't use BM, aura or combo on the boss itself. Use them in the dungeon to save time.
*Use dash/blink. Running works, but it'll be easier if you can dash or blink.
*don't stand still unless you're using a skill.
*trying using fast skills like cannons.
*When ever a boss hits you, run untill you're fully healed and the cooldown of your hp pot is done. (run while potting and keep running until you can pot again)
*Don't hit them when their shield is up. As long as the skill started when it's down it should hit, it doesn't matter if the shield goes up during the skill.


Group dungeons can be solo'ed if you have decent ranks.

i dont have dash, but i use fade step, to get out of his way, and i run all time, but his last attack, when he has like 5% of his health left, that s like impossible to escape, exept when ur able to run quickly into the maze in the room before it, so u can jump out, when his beam has passed the doorway,...
btw, what do u get, when u finish that dungeon? or hasnt anyone finished that dungeon yet?

[takolin]

60 honour and a slotted item.
I'll post a vid tomorrow on how I kill it.
I won't use dash if you're happy with that to prove you can evade the 1 hit beam.

ill be very happy indeed,...
oh, about dash, if i learn that magictosword upgrade skill,
does it take me as long to get a next sword level, as it takes me to get a magic level up? (coz imo if ur approx level 60, u get massive more exp, than when ur like level 10 or so, (this just to ask, will it go like in one hour to get to apprentice, when i grind yellow monsters, or will it take me as long, as it takes me to get to the next level, with my magic, while grindin)

u can always use the roll move, it's a social skill so everyone has it, but g.m me i would just blink/dash myself outta a hot situation, dash is easy to get, because it is a sword skill, i think u can get it early, but u'll have to do some work to get it to lvl9, and tht will be it's best effect because it's downtime is 0.8 seconds, means u can use it almost anytime u need it

The robot boss is easy to beat. When he starts to charge up his 1-hit kill beam just run right through him so you are standing behind him. Then you will see he starts shooting his beam in a counter-clockwise direction. So just circle around him until he stops, then hit him 1 or 2 times. Repeat this until he is dead.

the trouble is, as a wizard, i usually stay at distance, and dont come close, to hit him, and than u all of a sudden, have to go very close, to be able to outrun his beam

[DoMiNuS]

wizards' BM2 is very useful actually against bosses
once his shield is off double cast and move out of that place and wait untill his shield is off again - double cast - run and so on untill you kill him

about that lazer thing when he is almost dead - when you him starting to charge it run at his back - it starts at the direction he is facing - then start running counter-clockwise direction and wait till it ends - hit and run again - not that difficult :)

wow nice video but likemn1032 said mages have to fight from a far and b4 i get flamed i read dpminus's qoute but just sounds a bit hard to do?

[Brewfus]

Using Aura's, Battle modes are pointless on single dt card bosses, u do less damage than u would with out it oddly and these bosses do a % of your health so no maner of def or def rating will help so dont waste sp doing it.

Just time your attacks well (when the shield is up u miss and if the shield goes up after u press the skill it will land as it registered before the shield) and dodge their attacks
First 2 are pretty hard as those bosses do a one hitter as u probably are aware but the ones after are real easy, the last one at 75 however is the same boss as the first one but by then u should have g.master and can take him out before he even gets a chance to use it =)
