Arkarium and the CK - The Great One - 2012-04-13

Stereo Wrote:This guy's attacks are ridiculous, lol. Like the poison that does more than my DW's max HP per tick (sets me to 1 each second). And the attack that does more than my DW's max HP (about 45k). And the attack that does max damage to the whole map. And the KO you can only avoid if you tap left and right fast. And two seduces...

So hes basically the normal one with less HP.

Agreed, this seems impossible. My poor lil Wind archer only has 3200 HP. I might as well give up on this now. I reentered countless times, but was dead or seduced or whatever that bar-with-arrows thing is within seconds each time. Once the snake summons appeared it was beyond hopeless to comical.

Oh, forgot to mention, he also cancels potentials.
 Spoiler

Not that it makes my DW's range awful, but it isn't good.

Party was 3 DWs, 2 WAs, 1 BW. We did beat it, with about 8 min left.

Our group that does daily regular Ark runs kills in like 4-6 minutes. (In party of 6)
Our CKs took 20 minutes to kill CK Ark. (In a party of 6)

Well I saw this video beforehand but his range doesn't look that crazy (but his damage does speak otherwise).

The time I saw his potential cancelled his damage went from 130ks to 40ks or so, which does suggest like 220% stats (or if he has a 65% bossing knuckle, about 100%) and I don't really know Strikers but 40ks on that attack is pretty good for not having potential active.

He opens up his stat window in the beginning.
He only has around +800 str.
Guess that fist skill is just mad strong.

And actually no,
We were 6 people everyone with at least 30% stat and we couldn't kill him. I have to input that there were 2 Blaze Wizards and 2 ThunderBreakers.
After we switch 1 BW and 1 Thunder breaker for 2 NW we could kill him no sweat.

EDIT: LF> Friends in Khaini

I'll let you know when I get my striker to 120 (probably sometime next week) and we can get something together if you still need to run.

I can join you guys on my breaker, and perhaps my wife on her fire magi.

Buddy my DS AbrasiveSoul, or my cygnus' LockedFate and HolyYit. I could help you out killing.

I personally really enjoy this boss, not sure why but its tons of fun. Biggrin

@3 above
Sounds like a plan, I'll add you guys who gave me the ign.
My IGN is Crewacala ( Dawn Warrior)

You really can't solo it (Assuming that's what you are doing). It's not going to happen. You need at least 3 people, 6 would be a good idea. If you have a group it's just a matter of walking in and attacking until he kills you with something, because it's going to happen so don't bother fighting it.

He also has a 20-30k range with that +800 str.

Don't know offhand what the Knuckle multiplier is, but that's twice what my Dawn Warrior has with +900 str and 165 attack (195 w/ Rage). Granted Knucklers have a 1.7 multiplier to 1hs's 1.2, he's still got ~275 weapon attack.

The fist skill is also pretty strong though. Brandish is 1456%/attack, it's 1840%/attack and only 12% slower, or 2427%/sec vs. 2666%/sec. with twice the range, and about 80% higher critrate.

Yeah, Thunderbreakers are pretty strong. That one in particular is equivalent to 3 of my DW, though, so no surprise it can solo the thing.

Hm, my dawn warrior is at around 15k with only +300 str and a 100%ed red katana.
I guess I have a lot of attack that KMS doesn't have though.
Edit: yea I have 248 attack without rage.

Arkarium and the CK - Stereo - 2012-04-14

Don't know offhand which 100%s you mean but my DW is a little w.attack deficient compared to what's possible, since I don't have 38 atk shoes, 30 atk mask, 20 atk cape, 20 atk earrings, etc.


I'm not going to bother with Arkarium until he drops enough orbs for everyone, I heard that comes in a future patch.

Nothing wrong with doing multiple runs until everyone gets one. but hey if all you ever meet are jerks and d1ckheads I guess your server sucks. Had one guy ran out on us just because we didn't kill boss fast enough seriously, if you can't handle it just don't do it. So you die, and? Its not the end of the world or nothing.

It's funny seeing people rage about dying on Akyrum...

The main thing wrong is that it turns 40-45 minutes a day (to find a party and kill it) into 120-130 minutes, and that's if your party is completely fair and doesn't quit when they get theirs.

Taking a long time to find a party and get them organized to go, tell me when was this never true? I rarely get the chance to host anything that requires 1-2 parties worth of people that doesn't take me nearly half an hour or more just to get the group organized in the first place. This comes from experience hosting so many different boss runs, CHT, 1st generation HT, or hell even PB sometimes (though nowadays people just showoff their gears to solo these bosses). Best thing to do is to rely on BL/guild then if all else fails for you. The part with people quitting after getting theirs still happens every now and then unfortunately though.

double posted due to lag on my part and some kind of database error o.o
