Can you guys beat AT KT with DPS builds?

[Guizin]

I always use a defensive build when fighting ATs, and even tempered monsters.
How do I git gud?

[Lack of Stuff]

P1 runs are usually done with 2-3 DPS builds and a CC guy or two. However, if you are just doing casual random runs then really anything works. If you want to be more efficient then just make 2 sets for mantled KT and naked KT. Thunder for mantle, ice/raw for horns on phase 4.

As per usual Jinjinx has some good setups and suggestions.

I mean, you need to damage it to win?

Lightning + Partbreaker + Bomber3 until it's released, swap to Ice DPS build for horn breaking. AT KT tends to onehitkill people anyway so I ain't really care for survival skills against it. Dive the rolls etc, some carts happen once in a while, deal with it (usually to instaflip fire beam breath).

You don't need a full DPS for AT Katie. I'd rather run with a Lance that can withstand damage even if it doesn't do a lot of it than a Dual Blade that carts every 5 seconds in my team. With randoms most of the damage will come from bombs after CC anyway.

Adding to what's been said. If you insist on being on a hard hitting melee weapon (GS, SA, Hammer, HH) bring a gliding mantle for final phase. It will make mounts and focusing attacks on the horns WAY easier.

It is pretty much, but partbreaker becomes useless after KT is released.

Part breaker still works on the horns, no?

Horn plating yes, horns no.

Horns are purely about damage, and before final room it doesn't count. Dudes spending way too much time attacking horns in third phase area, or worse yet, wasting mount and/or CC there.
