Boss Skills
1. Far Dash Cannon - He dashed to the opposite end of Battleground and do a long range straight Cannon Blast. Inflict flame. (high DMG)
2. Short Dash Cannon - same as above but fly nearby then cannon blast. Inflict flame. (high DMG)
3. Fly then charge at player - Fly up and charge towards player. inflict dizziness
4. Ground Slam COUNTERATTACK (If he become red) (Very High dmg)
5. Two whack COUNTERATTACK (If he become red) (Very High dmg)


Break parts:
1. Neck - tap from Boss' left-back (at the cracked ground at the beginning of battle) ** Hard to find
2. Shoulder (Boss' right Shoulder) - tap from Boss' right side
3. Leg (Boss' Left Leg) - tap from Boss' front/ back/ right
** To break all part (full pt break formation), you must have a stunner (Bash, shield Bash & Shield Cannon etc). Begins the fight without anyone attacking the boss, the boss should be immobile (his name should be red). Neck-breaker take position at the Left-back of the boss somewhere on the cracked floor. Shoulder-breaker run to Boss' right side (direct right). Only then the stunner run up to do the first hit with stun. Stunner will act as leg breaker.
Finally, all members tap like no tomorrow. If everyone did their jobs, all 3 part will be broken b4 the stun effect wears off.

Drops:
Marble Shield (Shield)
Knight Armor (Armor)
Blaster Bow (Bow)

Notes:
** Elem is EARTH and weakness is FIRE (Brutal Dragon's staff).
** Important TIPS: Do NOT do flinch or tumble on him!!!! If you do, he will turn red (raise his def/Guard and all your dmg become 1, on top of that, he will do a COUNTERATTACK to the poor tank which cost 1000++ HP).
General Strategy:
Pillar Golem is really easy and predictable, he can even be soloed easily with a Farmer Mage build with 0 revita (Everyone should have one right?). Notice how Pillar Golem always do "Far Dash Cannon" once u damage him around 15 - 20K total. Also notice that he will always do a normal atk after that.
So the strategy is: use normal attack on him until he do the "Far Dash Cannon". Then Unleash your combo on him once he did and start walking towards you. He will be dead in no time. All his red zone is easily avoided if you follow the strategy.

** Survival tips: If someone flinch or tumble him, avoid him until he turns back yellow then have the stunner do an immediate stun on him to calm him down (to avoid the 1k COUNTERATTACK)

will add @Neo Frame 's contribution for scrader soon

 

I've been looking for this kind of thread, never knew was already made.
Very nice guide and easy to understand with all those descriptions, tbh

Suggestion: Idk if I'm in the right position to say this (since I can't contribute anything, or yet) but, I think It'd be great to add bosses' reaction to all kind of inflicted ailments towards them, e.g. You may NOT inflict Thumble / Flinch to certain bosses or they'll be tough asf and force them to use special movement/skill (Jade, Cerberus, TD, etc.,)

 

thx for the encouragement @Ryuneda !
as for your suggestion, its placed under the 'notes' section of each boss, hope that helps!

 

Might as well load some boss reactions then:
Pillar Golem- After Flinch or Tumble, atk patterns and damage change. Will do a instant AOE and will do 2 auto attacks in place of one. Damage is efficiently doubled for each attack
Nurethoth- After a flinchlock move is used (flinch, tumble, stun) Nure counters with a high damaging undodgable AOE that causes the same effect. He stops this at roughly 25-40%(?) hp
Boss Roga- Locks Proration whenever flinchlocked
Demon's Gate- Guard rate temporarily raised after flinched/tumbled (btw @Samm had best time at DG with you when it released on my first acct)
ECB- When HP reaches a certain percent, it will gain atk and will switch from higher guarding when flinched to higher evading when flinched
Flare Volg- At roughly 30% hp, guard and evasion are raised
Mauez- At 50% hp, attack patterns are altered
Cerberus- While what happens exactly when flinchlocked is beyond me, he has 4 flame mode. Blue is normal, red when flinch, yellow when ????? and white when he is at 25% hp. Atk is raised in White and red mode, but as said ????? for yellow

 

Will make 1 for inzanio too when i get a bit more free time for sketches.
Though tbh new bosses are being way too squishy people dont even care about strategy anymore just full dps and go complete berserk is being the strategy for everything.
Not that i am complaining about faster runs but for me personally its just boring.
Need more bosses like inzanio/scrader/jade back else the game gonna get pale faster than anything.
