Cyclops advice plz

[Boutus]

After dying many times, I got the cyclops to go down on one knee, it looked like an injured animation? (in fact I thought it was dead), does it do this at a specific health amount? Like half health or something?

It falls to one knee after you deal enough damage to knock it out of its rockfall animation. I don't know what the exact timing is, but when I kill it with Barb it tends to only get two rockfall attacks in. It normally dies shortly after the second rockfall, so I would guess 40%?

okay thx, I use barb also, how do you deal with the rock falls?

[Dirge]

It's a mixture of luck and timing. As far as I can tell, each rock deals damage with both direct contact and an aoe. If you jump right before the rocks land you'll avoid the aoe damage but there is still a chance you'll take impact damage if one falls directly on top of you. Personally, I use the War Cry shout when he starts the animation. The 25% health buff helps to absorb any damage you might take.

@boutus
Jump half a second after his club hits the ground, every time he hits the ground , the rocks will fall from the sky half a second later, practice to get the timing rtight

the only issue is the damn rock fall attack being half rng for me. rogue cant really tank it well or dps check before taking too much damage
