Harbinger of Doom

Has anyone been able to beat this EM?

I've tried a few times now, and it seems fighting Dabura is like fighting Superman Prime One Million: there's no chance to begin with. He dodges any and all attacks, with some just plainly going straight through him without any stamina being used to dodge or block.

And when he gets enough ki, he simply uses that one aoe and boom, entire group one-shotted 100% guaranteed.

Innocence Bullet against all major bosses and other than that just spam Big Bang Kamehameha (as a Saiyan), Charged Golden Form Ki Beams (as Frieza) or Perfect Shot (everyone else).

yeah this EM is pretty BS, the npcs have infinite data input, if you are fast enough you can use shadow crusher to evade the AoE.

Poison weakens that Data Input-like state and makes them vulnerable. The only dangerous situations arise when a boss uses Marbling Drop in its homing version. Use Super Guard or Vansher Guard for that.

I'll give it a whirl, thanks. But given that I struggle to use x100 Big Bang Kamehameha to this day, I'm not sure my lack of skill with that alone will get me much farther, haha.

And I'm guessing Dabura as the second appearance is still only one among many other enemies that arrive.

If you're using a Saiyan, just equip Super Vegeta, and Big Bang Kamehameha (the super, not the ultimate). Once you transform, you're able to teleport with Big Bang Kamehameha while charging with it.

As for Marbling Drop/Peeler Storm, use Vanisher Guard, it should last long enough for each attack, but if you dont feel comfortable with that, use Super Guard (just make sure you have ki)

Always equip Energy Zone.

Aye, already been using SV for some time with my Saiyan female ki blaster, but I completely forgot about the teleporting BBK, so thanks for that.

Unfortunately I do not have the option to play online myself for any EM or Raid, so I'm forced to rely on the rather dull who are more interested in cowering at one's side than attacking.

Yeah, that came as a shock to me as well. :-P But I used the combo of a ki blaster and Super Attack Big Bang Kamehameha as recommended above and I finally got to Buuhan at least. X) Though my entire team is practically dead again with what little hp everyone has.

I did it as a striker last night but i would agree poisoning is going to be your best bet and dealing with the tanking of damage. I plan to go that route with my less proficient sets

This EM is basically Extreme Malice Lite. One thing I noticed is Android 13 and Dabura have a rather high level of damage reduction: nothing hurts them as much as it seems like it should.

Fortunately, Buuhan and Fused Zamasu take normal damage despite their significantly higher health so if you follow that Super Saiyan BBK strategy everyone's suggesting you can chew through their health very quickly with persistent spamming.

I also noticed Dabura has access to Peeler Storm, but when employing this strategy it seemed to prevent him from firing it off. He seems to fire it off once when he gets to the yellow health bar and again on the last orange one. Maybe it's a case that if you can keep him off balance when he passes these treshholds, he'll forget to do it.

Despite the first two bosses' damage reduction this strat does lead to you having plenty of time. If you have access to them, I would also recommend Hmm Hmm Hmm Super Soul and Divinity Unleashed as an easy way to fire it off and keep the team healthy.

[Aerofare the Deranged Daedalist]

Aye, thanks a ton for the advice, guys, I FINALLY did it with a Z rank to boot. ^^ It certainly was an immense relief to see Buuhan and Fused Zamasu take extensively more damage than Super 13 and Dabura, especially as by then it was getting really stressful to stay alive with a miniscule percentage of hp left on everyone.

That BBK spam sure worked wonders! However, I feel I must share one thing said by Trunks that was quite a laughable moment as well as a good summing up for some of the content:

*after returning from the banishment rift* 'The enemy's power level has dropped dramatically, keep it up!' *right after freeing another ally from the rift* 'I don't know what you did, but the enemy's power level has increased immensely!'

Just...what...

[MekaDovah]

Heh, Trunks does that a lot.

well, that's unfortunate. saturday crash works really well with a coordinated group. im guessing you stay offline to use mods?
