We were rushed in organizing this, sorry >.>

@English, @Pink Bean, let's go together next Saturday and/or Sunday :D

[Elven Emily]

You guys should probably get your time lower since Hypers are coming out next week.

I think i am ready to solo this dude..

Were there any special tricks you did? Me and my friend both hit cap, and tried to kill the Flame thing asap, but we still got maxed out on flames at like 40 minutes. I screwed around a bit and realized if you hugged the wall you could avoid the flames and still attack, but it only worked sometimes and kept glitching. Sometimes my attacks wouldn't even hit Ranmaru. We only made it up to the fourth body.

you need to have some way to kill the flame summoners (i believe they spawn only on the middle?) or else the room is going to fill up with flames.
if they die maybe less than 5 seconds after the "the inferno onmyouji etc etc" the flame will not spawn. if there's too much time after this message the flame is going to STAY.

it's suggested to kill all of them anyway because they constantly heal ranmaru and if your DPS isn't that great it can add up

i've had runs last well over 50 minutes because we had an aran using tempest on them. they're NOT boss tagged so OHKO chance will pineapple with them

IF you have enough DPS the flames won't reach too far before ranmaru dies.

We're both hitting cap, and we couldn't kill the summoner before the flames spawned. We could out damage the healers. It was just me and a Kaiser, so we didn't have any OHKO moves (aside from FC but its like 15% chance and has a CD).

The spirit walkers arent boss flagged. 1hko moves instantly kill them.
I guess as a DB final cut can kill it or a wild hunter card.
It's like this in JMS too.

All i did as bring a Dark Knight to Dark Impale the spirit walkers. A Paladin's Blast, a marksman's snipe, a jett's brain scrambler, a Demon slayer's demon slash suffices as well, and as a dual blade your final cut has a 15% chance of 1hkoing it. Wild hunter cards give extremely minimal (1.5% for lv 100) chances of 1hko normal mobs with any skill with it's character card, and adventurer cruel/criticals give 1% chances. These are really only good for attacks that dish a lot of independent attacks like kaisers and corsairs.

Snipe/Brain Scrambler is your best bet since the Onmyoujis don't count as bosses.

[MountLag]

Apparently Empress runs are a lot easier with yellow aura turned off...

[Grey]

Snipe skills and, Heaven's Hammer too, I guess, are limited by the damage cap. I don't think they actually one hit, unless it's actually a property of the skill.

From my experience, it actually does work. Can't say the same about Heaven's Hammer and Ender, however.

[Bomber]

Heavens hammer shouldn't be in this at all. Ender only goes to 1m.

My first noteworthy solo:



Finally downed the bean

[Bomber]

What bullpomegranate.

I was fighting it and i got to 3rd body no problem. I didnt even get fire in the map. I was thinking pineapple yes i am finally gonna solo this boss!



nope.avi
The thing glitched and it was summoning fire without the spirit walker even being in the map. By the time it actually spawned the fire already consumed the platform.
IT WAS SUCH A GOOD RUN TOO.
@Viener; Kaisers have dragon barrage. Max level = 25% chance to 1hko per attack.

[MCPV]

A while ago, but actually got into Empress during 2x, in Scania.

[PirateIzzy]

An almost solo (not completely. I had 2 other people with be *cough* @Alloy but they both died). Thank you Nexon for reverting old glitches.

[Mandalay]

First legit Chaos Pink Bean kill in GAZED!

snip snip[/spoiler]

Aw crud. Was everyone pretty much hitting cap? 10 minutes left with two full parties is kinda nerve racking

Although, Hypers...

[Bomber]

Disaster run.

I see. Thanks. I already knew about DB's 15% chance to kill with FC, but the % was so low and there was a CD so it didn't go too well. I'll get my friend to use Barrage next time.

I think everyone that attacked was hitting max. We had 10 people go (the extra 2 in the expedition were mules with Mutant Snail familiars out), 2 were Phantoms mostly spamming dispel, 1 Kaiser disconnected around half way, but the rest were pretty much hitting cap all the time. Hyper should make it a lot easier, but I think 2 full parties of attackers should be good if everyone is hitting max.
