Ajax the unyeilding

[jdrftg]

Ajax the unyielding feels legitimately unbeatable half the time, am I doing something wrong or is applying sap 2 to the entire floor every turn just ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥?

I think the best way to handle him is focusing on buffs / debuffs. Valor can boost damage to help offset sap, but I find high Pyregel on Ajax or Decay can make it way easier to take him out. He's a bit rough, I usually need 2 floors as opposed to 1 to take him out.

He's unyielding for a reason. :)

But yeah, a lot depends on how you're building by the time you fight him. Corruption effects are brutal on this. The Seraph one is even worse.

trying to stack a single floor with a high defense frontline unit is going to result in all your units in the backline sitting at 0 damage until they die; you can't drag out the fights against him

but the good news is that he is fairly weak to revenge abilities

so lava armor, wyngh's shield, avenger, etc.

another good counter is units or equipment that increase damage on strike, like demon fledgling or undying light, anything that offsets the debuff per round somewhat

as minor ring bosses go, he's not easy, but he's far from the worst of the bunch

the clown looking guy who adds 5 corruption to all 3 floors when he spawns and incants corruption is my vote for the worst to fight, although the eyeball boss that resolves 6 stacks of re-animate is pretty annoying too
