Stygian Zinogre tips please

[Jerry Miller]

Hello all,

I have been back on the grind as of late and wanted try and farm some Stygy Z for his armor set.

I have defeated him in the past when I got the mission from handler but have not really fought him since. I think he is a great fight and love his whole style!

But I wanted to ask you guys how to juke some of his moves.

To be specific his claw move where he swipes his left paw to the right and his *Super nova Howl* where he jumps twice and then does a spinning drill toward you.

Any tips on the best way to avoid these attacks as I have a lot of trouble avoiding his nuke attack.

I don't need any armor sets, just simply some ways how you folks play around or juke some of his moves.

Thanks!

claw swipe can be easily i-framed or just even avoided considering its wind up. just run around when he does his big move and superman dive if you have to. don't run in a straight line so the drill doesnt hit you

I have some trouble with Stygian too. I think its because I'm too used to hunting regular Zinogre. That Bison Psychocrusher move always ALWAYS catches me off guard.

Don't get hit by the M. Bison psycho crusher move. If you can't avoid that attack, then it's like playing on an arcade cab that's designed to take all your quarters.

I always use Dragon Res +3 and Dragonproof Mantle. Roll towards Stygian when it unleashes those dragon energy balls. There is a safe zone right in front of him during that attack.

Stygian usually does the spinning screw attack right after his dragon energy ball, so roll towards him during the dragon energy ball, and then keep rolling to evade his spinning screw.

Flinch the monster with slinger ammo that has a flinch effect on it. That always cancels imminent attacks
