Is it normal that Kronika is basiclly unbeatable?

[Luca]

I played through the entire game without dying a single time, then id reach kronika and she is just fking weird, ive been playing on normal difficulty but later id tried it on easy...

I get punished for doing any attack and then im captured in a 17 hitcombo which literally drains my health by 90% and if i i try to do just any attacks she just blocks them and kills me with her op attacks

Is there anyway to make it be a normal difficulty or just skip the fight?

I found a pretty cheesy trick to beat her... just walk forward and spam front and rear punch over and over. it hits occasionally and pushes her to the corner when she blocks. she gets a hit in every once and a while but it pretty much keeps her from doing anything. just spam the two hit combo. when she summons the other fighters use all your meter to take them out quick and then back to punch punch...punch punch...punch punch

There is a spike but I just used kombos and specials relentlessly and it worked out. Not sure what to tell you except keep trying.

I always beat her by spamming jump-in kicks, and if you connect you can try an uppercut.
Needless to say, don't bother with any grabs, command grabs or any other immobilizing attacks or launchers with her.

jump forward 2, land, crouching 2.. so jump in with a punch, land , uppercut.. over and over.. same for the minion spawns..dont even bother tryin to play like you're fighting a person with sense.. Kronika is KOF boss levels of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, with some Diablo from diablo 3 "oh you got me down to % health, heres a minion" spam.. she's a dope character but I think they coulda did something a little neater with regard to phases and such

Generally I have a lot of problems with final bosses in MK games but this one wasn't that difficult at all. Playing on normal difficulty. Beat her with noob and.. some other character I don't remember. I think scorpion. Either way, I didn't practice or know much with either of the characters, just did the basic 3-4 hit combos over and over. Jump in with a punch, then do 3-4 more punches or whatever the combo may be, block, rinse and repeat.

Just don't play characters with lots of combat throws, she is immune to that. Fast attacks, nothing more.
Teleport would be also helpful.

Try blocking, she's really not that hard.

kronika is not that bad, she is a boss so you shouldn't beat her first try. Just keep trying and you'll see her patterns after a while. For a MK boss she really isn't that hard.

I played the complete story on Hard. Kronika made me switch to very easy because I got so mad after 2 hrs. The 2 punch strat doesnt work that well because u will run out of time on hardmode and lose so u have to mix in a cpl of kicks when u hit her with the 1 - 2 but there's a chance that she will punish you for doing so. Any other fight on Hard difficulty I managed to beat within 1hr but Kronika was something else.

Beat her in my second try, just constantly stay on her ass

Pretty normal for MK games to have ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ end bosses (Shao Kahn in any game where he's the villain, Corrupted Shinnok in MKX, Blaze in Mortal Kombat Armageddon) or overly hard sub-bosses followed by easy bosses (MK4 Goro, MK:DA Moloch, MK1 Goro) or both hard bosses and hard sub-bosses (MK3 Motaro & Shao Kahn, MK2 Kintaro & Shao Kahn)

The only game I can think of where it's a straight shot up the Arcade Ladder no problem is Deception with weaksauce Onaga

She only took like two tries. She is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥, and you can't treat her as a normal opponent, but you can use your most damaging attack strings and they will work, even if they no longer launch or knockdown. For Skarlet at the towers, for example, I spam F21, B12 and B34. Those don't lead into combos, but cause more damage per hit and are pretty safe, making it so that she falls faster. And also, be sure to block low against her. Most of her stuff seems to hit low.

In story? She falls for 1, 2, fireballs pretty frequently, also Liu Kang's F+2 when she tries to use just about any special move, it's faster, hits twice and she may fall for it again.
