Lunastra, holy crapbaskets

[Varagonax]

I went in as a HBG, fully expecting the same crap I experience with diablos and his mate, or Rathian and hers.

Was not prepared for toaster on steroids

Nuke with dot? Check

Removing half of the arena with stupid projectile blocking flames? Check

Death by flames, despite having nearly 50 fire resist? Check




and I havent even repelled her yet, let alone killed her and her beau. ♥♥♥♥ me

[Ordaeli]

Good news is her tempered version isn't much stronger than the regular version.

Its so unbelievably brutal
Its not even hard, its unfair
Dodge one move, and she instantly combos into the sweep, which makes ALL the blue fire do damage
shes unbelievably fast, so kiting while you heal up isnt an option
You cant farcaster out of the arena
you have to repel her in 15 minutes, which unlike nergigante doesnt require you surviving for a period of time, forcing your to fight her
you cant bring in a friend, you have to solo
and buliding fire resist is apparently pointless, since her DOTS can consume your health faster then ebola plus aids plus cholera plus cancer

How the ♥♥♥♥ am I supposed to be able to fight this, I just dont understand
I know others do it, and HAVE done it, but this is unreal
I would rather pvp in darksouls 1 then this

so do you even use fireproof mantle? it last quite long, at least long enuff to deplete half of her HP

Both times
Doesnt seem to be working for me, Maxed out my fire defence and put on the mantle and still no results
Timed out both times, but it might be my HBG, Im try a different build, probably a sns water or ice build, i dunno whats better

[♋Phenex]

Thank the lord I was more or less maxed out on gear before hand. KT Ice DB with health augment and 480+ def made the fight very manageable.
Also ice is prob better.

just go with melee elementless and fireproof it's not that hard. do HBG if you have speed sheath and guard up or already if you already got the ultra instinct mantle. clearmindcharm helps

If you're going with S&S, make this build and thank me later:

have fun

Don't forget to eat for element resist up. Over 20 negs fire or something? And everyone always points out the numbers, but don't forget.
You can stagger her too.
Use a weapon for ko/stagger....break parts. I got through the tail in 2 TCS with anguish. (yea yea, no wyvern impact. If i had the damn streamstones i'd be using that) and a not optimized set.
and NO demondrugs, or performance enhancers of any kind (besides the food boost).

Another thing to consider, is sleep/status for free hits. Bringing along paralysis knives should net you at least 1 i think if you're having that much trouble and using a gun.

And c....rocksteady mantle. Even tho it does diddly for resistances. If you use it after fire, it can net you a small period to go gonzo with a weapon (with health augmentation...so you heal) or to heal in ..relative piece, and at least not waste a potion.

Also, drink a cold drink beforehand, apparently it helps a bit. And there was a popup in game about crystalburst/bombs blowing up powder o.0 dunno ...haven't tried it..but game said so.

I would say avoid HBG, unless you're planning a ton of statuses, because alone (without it targetting someone or something else) you're SOL..

Hunting Horn, check:)

wait its out already?

[♋Phenex]

Release dates are all in UTC so PT and ET have actual release at 4PM and 7PM respectively.

[Varagonax]

I did it, went and potentially wasted a hero stone on the kt ice dbs for health regen and went ham and a half, in dantes full set with fire resist maxed.

Barely pulled it off with time to spare, carted twice because im not used to the weapons.
