Easiest way to learn is just to fight them.

About Chaos Von Bon, when he floats in midair, what happens when the timer runs out?

Do you mind updating this guide to being more specific maybe?
i would... but i haven't fought the bosses in a few weeks, so i'm a bit rusty
but all the pomegranate i posted was stuff i noticed fighting them once man, they're pretty easy to learn.

Aside from Von Bon's 1hko, which I have yet to see coming, and knowing to kill the mirrors + not get sucked up, yeah they're no real challenge to figure out.

There is a video up of a hacker that killed Chaon Vellum, with no weapons dropped.

Sadly, this was before the 150 equips were introduced as drops.
Pierre is do-able as well, but except he lags you badly whenever he changes colors.

It doesn't seem easy because on the first day of release, I lost 80% of a level at level 184.
Also, it's better off on updating it anyways right?
Besides, you can combine people's suggestions and strategies by editing your first post.

Sometimes i wish i was in a world like Bera or Scania so i could organize a run like that. Khaini is such a bad world to try bossing in =/
Edit: They nerfed the potion drop rate
and hats don't come hidden potential anymore.

I also had crusader coins drop.

Maybe I didn't get this right but: Are drops client private now while bossing?, because Limgoon didn't get any hat and he picked up everything but at the same time the girl gave him 2 hats after moving like if she was picking up stuff.
If equips are now private per character, then unlimited now makes sense.
Root Abyss Boss Mechanics - OhBaby - 2013-02-28
Yes, unlimited gives each person separate drops so that taking a party is a much greater asset than not taking one after unlimited

Check out the previous page; some sort of unlimited mechanic where everyone gets their own set of loot.

Skill Books drop more frequently, I had 3-5 per boss yesterday. Did anyone else's Vellum not use his Poison Plasma attack? I waited a minute or two for it below 25% then 10% HP, it never came.
I wanted to add this in some time ago but kept forgetting, does anyone not a mage experience OHKO's from Pierre when using his Umbrella Thrust when using a movement skill into or out of its range? I survive perfectly fine if he pushes me back, but if I teleport into the skill or get caught as I'm teleporting (too slow) out of the range it turns into a OHKO.
Slightly unrelated, does anyone think the reason our Fafnir weapons and equips don't have the additional options (%Boss/PDR) is that we don't have Additional Options/Revamped Equip UI or did they actually remove them? Because these changes to boss drops and boss: drops feels copypasta, like MISS=>GUARD. Are the boss drops like this in KMS?

Vellum still uses the posion DoT attack, but not as often. I've killed vellum once without him even bothering to use it, and another time in which he did. The one hit KO part from PIerre I think i can relate to since for some reason I died with like full hp or something the same time I killed him when I tried to move and grab box, really weird there, its like velderoth. The drop of items from abyss bosses I have no clue about, unable to farm chaos daily at all, and normal mode seems to be the same as usual except less pots, crusader coins dropping, and low drop rate of helms now.

Considering that I've only really done Root Abyss on my level 150-170 Battle Mage, trying it on my level 106 Kanna was certainly.. an experience. Did Queen always do that much damage? sheesh.
Gonna get to at LEAST level 120 before I try that again.
Root Abyss Boss Mechanics - Muppy - 2013-03-01
Anyone having problems with the bosses' attack's hitboxes? I mean, I was on the other side of the screen and Vellum still hit me with that bigass yellow circle attack. Afterwards, while trying to kill Queen, her bad breath attack hits me while I was behind her.
Seriously, wtp.

You're not alone, same thing happened to me.
I've noticed the drops changed too, they also drop Crusader coins now.
Potions seem to drop in one bundle, they don't drop multiple bundles of power elixirs anymore.

Yeah, both these things happened to me tonight. Also some other things I noticed:
-I got locked waaaay more often. My DS barely got locked before by either Pierre's tornado, or Queen, but today every time tornado touched me I got locked, and Queen locked me 5 or 6 times in a row.
-Not sure if you can't attack Pierre in tornado mode anymore, or the damage just doesn't show.
-I think they just concentrated the potions into a single stack. I never really paid attention to how many potions I got per run before, but the new stacks have 50+ potions.

The Tornado and Seduce Queen's Scratch always locked me, every hit regardless before the patch (0% Status Resistance Evan). Perhaps the MISS mechanic change caused this, since I suspect as a DB you weren't getting locked because you weren't getting hit i.e. MISSed.
You can still attack during Tornado, damage just doesn't show, the HP bar still goes down.
