Hina absolutely useless against Destroyer

[Neocronic]

I tried to block every attack it has, none of them blocked literally. For melee char thats relies at block deflect mechanics this boss unbeatable. I think dev should make this boss optional or add ways to deflect his attacks. Its completely unfair boss and makes feels like Hina completely trash.

think destroyer is the only enemy that the attacks cant be parried, just wait till devs add a limit series destroyer >:)

you can parry the missiles

[Williee]

the missiles are parryable
even if you can't parry any other ability, you can charge and launch your atk
it's not a complete miss situation

[Sneeeedle]

You mean the floating a$$hole with the missiles and almost impossible to avoid spin attack right?

Just use a different character. Simple as that.

It is working as intended as Deflect Counterattacks (like what Hina's Charge Attack and Counterattack does) only works on physical attacks. Deflect Counterattacks does not work on beam, energy, or fire attacks as they do not have a physical object to "deflect"

Dodge Counterattacks and Regular Dodges works on most, if not all attacks. Whether the character has one or the other varies on the character.

Yeah it sucks that most of Destroyer's attacks are not Physical which neuters her core mechanic but she is also not the only character in the game that cannot use their Counterattack on it. It is just they are not as reliant on Deflect as she is.

Yeah you have to learn limitations and adapt to what the game throws at you. Simple as that

i only beat him with free senba thats game give me and still takes 10+ attempt to learn all his attacks. Still don't know what to do at flamethrower phase, it not avoidable, you can avoid fire, but beam cant and it kills you instantly. Running in circles not helps too.

most of my attempts i not even live enough to see missiles, cuz fully geared Hina die after 3 hits. But even if i live enough, when i deflect missile boss attack with fire in same time and i just take free hit, cuz i in animation of deflecting. And boss literally spam his attack if you try to avoid it, Semba for example stun him for a moment after avoiding attack and this stop his combo attacks.

this will be mistake, cuz Semba literally only char thats deal with boss (i have other at lvl 1, cant check) and its limited to this fight. You can't obtain it in game by any way. So if they add it as challenge it will be unbeatable.

she already with shielder, I have Kazuki + Jio as her teammates, but fire deal insane damage, literally take 3 hits and you die. Beam for example takes like 80% hp if it hit you. At spinning flamethrower phase it unavoidable, atleast i not find how to after multiple attempts. Dashing through beam just hit you as if you stand in it. And it spin faster than you can run.
I only skip this phase by adding tension card for ressurect once per battle.

If we talk about the floating thing with laser; flamthrower and rockets then as others already have mentioned only the rockets can be blocked as they count as a "physical attack".

Everything else this enemy throws at you is a "non phyiscal attack" and can only be avoided by either "right click dodge" or a character that can "space bar counter" all attacks like Tsuruko for example.

In case of his tension max flame-laser-spin attack the best way you can do is to simply just dodge the attacks with either right click or spacebar IF the char allows a dodge counter. Trying space bar with a char that can only block/counter physical attacks will fail all the time.

The thing with the right click dodge is that every char can use it and your controlled character will get immunity for a few seconds of the attack you dodged and you can use this moment to give 1-2 hits and then right click the next incomming flame/laser to get the immunity to this attack as well.

Do this for the whole max tension phase and you can avoid all dmg that this thing wants to throw at you.

Bro just click dodge

[Vinnolo]

use a character with dodge counter attack, not deflect counter attack, like semba or tsuki i think (countering it is so easy btw, all the attacks are super telegraphed)
