Horn of Bahamut drop rate

[BB Mouse]

It's needed a lot to awaken Terminus weapons. I got all the Terminus weapon already. All those who knows how many weapon grind runs I still can't have enough of this Horn of Bahamut to awaken 1/3 of the crews... And I just did 4 runs to get 1. So how many times do we have to do proto to awaken all crews? This is sick I mean the game is good but these insane grinds ruins it... The people who don't care drop the game already. Those who do you are double taxing them through the same grinds over and over. You are encouraging them to drop that way. That's simply not healthy. The upcoming patch please increase the rate.

Break his horns when he's green to guarantee one.

You can't break it. I just did another 8 runs, no drops. This is so sick...

When you just smash Proto Bahamut's face, you should be able to break it with enough stun power. It's a small, purple spawn on the side and easy to miss

yes you can, there are even videos about it.

I have been hitting his head and it did enter break phase if that's what you mean. Anyway, google search suggests to do it online to get a better chance 'cause other people might have higher stuns, so I guess I will do that. I don't like this fight at all. Any of those power 13000 multi-miniboss fights are more fun than this cut scene spam fight. It's good for a few tries for fun, but not so good for grinding I think.

[T.E.W.S]

i have like 70+horns from farming all terminus weapons and didnt even try to break anything

[BB Mouse]

They raise the drop rate at 1.1 but lower it back to 1.12. Have been doing for 6 runs and feeling very boring doing it with npc. Now I can't find any party doing it 'cause they all go to the new boss. I don't feel like to do the new boss 'cause I can't even finish the old content for each character. Just why do they want people suffer?

You need stun power to break the horns, not raw damage. Part break goes off stun power in this game. It's also how the shields work if you fail the "shoot the 4 orbs" mechanic.

I had Eugen with 230+ stun using grenade and npc party and couldn't break it. The grenade mark on its head but you shoot it with X somehow they don't hit and pass through the head most of the time. Anyway, I don't want to be an expert of proto. I just want to play each character on something.

Yeah the hitbox for the horns is... wank to put it mildly. If you're trying to grenade the horns it's best to stick them to the ground in front of the horns itself if you can. You have to hit the horns themselves, not his skull. It's really bizarre.

I tried 3 more times, both on head and ground.... no luck. I even tried not to damage it too much, so he has more phase lying there, but the horn simply does not break. Anyway, I don't know how other people manage it, but I am pretty much stuck here and cannot progress.

Here What I did. I play vane. Make him full stun, 3 x stun 15 V+. Then I use the two skills that do crazy stun damage. Go onto COOP and keep hitting his head when I can. Without help from team mates most of the time. They are busy with its belly for faster kill. I get 2 horns if I manage to break his horn in time sometimes.

My Eugen is full stun 230 grenade which is known to break parts but does not work. Anyway, my goal is to play each character. If I have to swap to a dedicated char to do this, it beats the purpose. What happened to people who do not have these full stun character if they want to play a new char? BTW, I have not get to Vane, he is actually next on my list, but haven't got a chance yet XD.

I tried your method with Vane with 250 stun. It's not working at all... First you cannot target its horn, you will either end up attacking head or hand. Next you almost always get to link attack, which cause it to raise head and stay in the air or even worst trigger link time. Your windows of its head lying on the ground is very small. I tried big stun skills like you did, but they always cause link attack. I tried normal X or even full Y. No time is too short the horn cannot break. Eugen is better I think, at least it will hit horn with grenade consistently if target the ground. But either way they don't break the horn. I even purposely prolong the fight but it won't break. At least make the horn target-able. But I am stuck. I am surprised no one else has this problem??

Hitting the head is where the horn is. Yes it is tricky. It doesn't work all the time in COOP.

As I mentioned, most players would not help you. It is a race against time. You just need practice. I have Eugen too. He doesn't seems to work for me. Mostly because he doesn't have the crazy stun skills where Vane has 2 stun skills.
