Boss Strategies V2

Imitator, the new boss on the Block:
Red AOEs:
Scorched Steel:
Causes Ignite, linear aoe
Hammer Edge:
Causes Stun, linear ale
Parasitic Rage:
Causes Knockback, covers whole map

Blue AOE:
Tract Fluids:
Circular, doesn't follow. Causes silence
Rage Ripper:
One of those multidirectional slash attacks. Causes bleed and happens right after the previous AOE.

Notes:
Normal Attacks can cause bleed
Field is litter with Strange Tentacle mobs that will flinch you
Strange Tentacles have 100% evasion. Not sure if invincible because I don't have a mage

Drops:
Imitator: +5%Atk +2Ampr +10%Anticipate
Dark General's Sword
Dark General's Shield

 

they have near infinite HP, you can't kill them ._.
just like Empress' Cassies ...

 

What about the strategy for fighting this guy, like no flinch or something like that

 

As far as I know, there's no mechanic that makes him go berserk. I have yet to flinch him (Stun and Tumble I have) and if there's a mechanic that gets triggered by damage dealt (like yelb and scrader) I have yet to hit hard enough.

 

ok thanks

 

Oh wow, I barely even got halfway through this Imitator fellow. Imma do a full repost with all the AOEs so we can be at 100% on this dude. Also went about renaming some skills

Helpers: @HEXX @Alzarith @LastS0ng (idk your forums if this aint it .-.) Fun gem run guys. Just know never again

Auto Attacks:
At lower HP (idrk when sadly) He'll use Reflective Reaper. It's multi-directional and curves slightly. Still causes bleed

Red AOEs:
Fever Burst:
Causes Ignite, linear aoe
Split Image:
Causes Stun, linear ale
Parasitic Rage:
Causes Knockback, covers whole map
Festering Hatred:
Small, Circular, in front of boss, and specially made to ruin your day. Gotta love fracs
Red Death:
Linear Dash aoe. Don't recall getting hit by this.

Blue AOE:
Tract Fluids:
Circular, doesn't follow. Causes silence. Happens after Hammer Egde
Reflective Reaper:
One of those multi-directional slash attacks that point everywhere. Causes bleed and happens right after the previous AOE.
Boiled Bloodrush:
Multi-directional in front of the boss. Just 3 huge-ass waves of fire to ruin your day... Yaaaay...
Uncontained Outbreak:
A small circular AOE that follows a random target, but never the tanker. Causes Fatigue

Notes:
Normal Attacks can cause bleed
Field is litter with Strange Tentacle mobs that will flinch you
Strange Tentacles have 100% evasion. Totally invincible. Can be tumbled by impact however and temporarily moved by storm/tempest but will bounce back to place.
For those who haven't noticed, just being in the map causes fatigue. You don't even need to get hit. This makes this guy even harder because physical damage is always weaker on the map.

Fire Element
780,000 HP
8700 EXP

Drops:
Imitator: +5%Atk +2Ampr +10%Anticipate
Dark General's Sword
Dark General's Shield

 

thanks for the tag. ^^

 

Bro @Isra trouble you to use the template provided...

 

Oh mind PMing it to me? I probs keep missing it sorry -_-

 

i think imitator start knock back if you tumble it when his HP lower than 50%, so dont tumble it,
the area of knock back is very large too, more than 8m(max distance to cast storm)

 

Can someone make a guide for yelb?? My dw always do either 1 or 0 damage against it and i dont know why! Some says dont flinch stun tumble...some says dont use smite in combos or dont use combos...dont know what to do...

 

You can Flinch/tumble/stun and do smite combo as well
It prolly increase flat defence but if you have high enough Atk it wouldnt matter.
Just focus on improving your dps whatever class you use

 

Usually my twin slash does 30k damage but after some time all damage drop to 1 or 0.....be it meele or any sword skill...this happened while i was in a party

 

0_0 ah yes when my twin slash exceed 17k , damage drops to 0 or 1.....but this must depend on lvl cause 17k is quite low but ok for my lvl 68 dw...(i hope so xD)
Thanks for the info. Much appreciated

 

Scrader has a similar mechanic. If you hit Yelb (Nornal) for 20k or more, all damage afterwards drops to 0/1. Scrader has a rage mode thats activated upon... Well its also damage related thats all I can say

 

Why in my video I can keep hitting 70k strike even if I did 68k first? -_- Its definitely something other than the 3% damage thingy

 

There must be mire.What it is I refuse to go online and find out unless I'm getting paid or if my ohone isnt getting taken

 

My experience yelb, when using halberd I could deal 50k+ stab with no reduction aftet that.
But when using DW, whenever I use astute as combo opener, my damage drop to 0 or 1. I tried spinning as opener and moved astute to the middle, can only deal 900-1000 damage with phantom. Then I tried dumping astute, phantom damage increased to 4-6k.
Is Astute the culprit of this damage reduction? Someone plz enlighten me.
