Skinny Jenkins

[Tier3Sub]

I can't for the life of me beat this fat ♥♥♥♥♥♥. I have an agility build my stats are 13S 15A 13S
Using Hick kick for the first two rounds with dodge
and the third round using middle kicks and 100 winds
I saw a video using this strategy and the guys stats were so much lower than mine. He never runs out of energy but I'm out by round three and get K.O.

So far this fat ♥♥♥♥ has kicked my ass a few times, also running an agility build, however I've lost due to points (got to round 5, no one KO, but he must have done more damage to me or got more hits connecting?) - but I think what you're supposed to do is to save your best moves (e.g. ones that use up your training tonal thing or whatever) for when he's not "focused".

Prior to that, use moves that sap as much of his energy as possible, so that hopefully he loses "focus" for the next round.

You can tell he's no longer focused because he'll use "energy saving" moves for all his attacking moves. Not only will he not attack much (or at all), but his blocks won't be as effective any more.

i did agility and never lost to this guy, just spam the low energy kick medium kick move, u can make him nvr restore his stamina properly and keep spamming it, dont use the boost things since it makes ur attacks cost more energy.

Yeah it took me a few tries to beat him.

If you're using a specific build, it might either be easy or extremely tough, I had to unlock more skills from the skill tree to eventually breeze through the fight.

However, one thing that will help you a lot is the fact Jenkin's stamina gets really low in Round 2. You can get a knockdown if you apply enough pressure on him. After that I preserved my stamina and eventually won.

What I did mostly on an agility build was try and attack him with cheap energy moves to deplete his energy when he was attacking and when he lost focus I used that entire round to replenish my own stamina. Since the dodges were mostly connecting I managed to knock him out on the 5th round.

Just a few hours ago I KO'd him as well, but I did pretty much the opposite of this. While I used lots of cheap moves to get his stamina down (so much that he had "lost focus" in rounds two and four), but instead of using those rounds to replenish my own stamina, I stacked all my hardest hitting attacks (still only the first agility kick that uses up the special agility tone thing).

Since he wasn't going to attack me, I removed all my defensive moves and bonus things for that round too, just in case (though the defenses wouldn't have triggered anyway in those rounds so that's probably not useful).

I won over him after more attempt then I will admit, but here is how. One punch and one high kick and two doge, thats it. My stats was 10,15,13. Hope this will help

The easy way to win that worked with me everytime after i used was to only recover stamina on rounds that he do too (rounds 2 and 4), and go all out on odd rounds, especially on round 5, that gave me the win everytime.

Ps: Im using the Bear route (strength focus)

[DreddBeat]

Crazy difficulty spike with this one. I still haven't beat him. He needs tweaking as it completely stalls the flow of the game.

EDIT: Finally beat him, but my suggestion still stands.

[mynamegoezhere]

For me it was the resistance member you have to beat to get the promotion in the noodle shop. Once I had trained enough to outpace him energy-wise, going through the ranks of the silver league was a nice pace, not too easy or hard. Good luck this game is fun and if you can beat the homeless softlock then grinding agility is a sure thing so far.

[asfalto]

gottem!!! literally spammed 100 winds and middle kick. My stats are more separated however. i have a 7-16-12 build (kinda like how i had to be in the first game)

surprisingly, not only did i full KO him, i forced him to go out of focus due to low stamina on round 5 aswell!

There's your problem. Strength is actively bad for an agility build. I would imagine you run out of energy really fast.

Unfortunately there is no way to decrease your stats as far as I know.

[Oskatat]

What Ignosius said. What you have is not an agility build, but balanced. Which, in this case, is bad. Check your moves. You'll see they all have a fixed damage and a fixed energy cost, + a percentage of your strength. Haven't checked the later moves, but in general your energy cost always goes up faster than the damage benefits of strength. Your high strength is making your moves more expensive and your high agility lets you have lots and lots of moves, for which you don't have the stamina

strength builds should keep their agility low(er) and skip defensive moves that cost energy to save on energy and just focus on a few powerful attacks. Agility builds should keep strength low to keep the cost of their many many attacks low.

I actually spent the GPP to get the strength move that lowers your tonus in it, just so I could prevent it from levelling and keep it low. Don't need to use it in a match, you can use it when you spar with Silver.

[Bahlsen]

On a side note, be very careful with your STR if you chose an AGI build.

There are, but not until later, so he should start a new save, that's way too much STR, like waaaaay too much. It's unsalvageable
