Death Stalker insight ( important )!

[VIRUS]

PLEASE guys before you go to nexon and tell them " Nerf death stalker "
this boss is so fun and cool!
in this post i got you covered if yo want to beat it
i successfully intercepted death stalker and beat it!

first of all
Death stalker isn't bulky boss with tons of health, its kinda squishy boss surprisingly, but SO LETHAL, it can kill you without you even notice if you are not on a proper build.
conclusion: you dont need TONS of skill power and FIREARM ATK on this boss, you dont need DAMAGE, you need SURVIVABILITY.

here is a pic of my hailey build which i made and beat him with, if you are going to use the hailey build with alot of skill power and crit , you wont make it, you dont need so much dmg.

reactor: skil crit rate and colossus dmg
i removed the crit rate mod on hailey and used reactor with gold crit chance ( i reach 100% crit chance with this setup )
link for the build :

if you are still in pain, try another hp mod rather than shot focus.


if you dont use hailey you will still be fine, just use the def mods and the toxin mods, but i recommend hailey since she is excellent firearm descendant and skill power is high already, so sacrificing dmg mods wont affect your dmg as much.
also Enzo, ajax, kyle, yujin, are very good choices since they have a good shield because this boss damage lays a debuff on your health so you cant restore the health taken from you until you properly do the mechanism.
DONT use gley or bunny, they are not good on this boss, trust me.
in the end the boss still needs high skill play, the build wont help you if you dont know how to survive his attacks and when to dmg and when to take cover!

Good luck Descendants!

Thanks for writing this positive and informative take on the new boss. I was curious. I'm glad they went with high damage over making the boss a super HP sponge that takes 5 hours to chew through. I look forward to taking on this boss later when my current descendants are actually ready.

Deathstalker isn't nearly as annoying as Gluttony. Went in blind, was able to understand the mechanics after a few attempts, beat it on the 5th try. FAR more accessible than Gluttony and not stat padded to high hell.

Honestly I'm surprised. I was expecting a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ after how they handled Gluttony, but Deathstalker is actually fun to fight. Good job devs.
