well, we didn't get anything from that run and a group in bera (?) livestreamed a kill with nothing dropping so yeah :/

They do drop. You're just getting unlucky.

[Blunderr]

Did two kills, 1 Pierre and one Von Bon, both last week, no drops.

[Dark Link]

SS confirmation would be nice. Maple friends would just rather actually see it instead of taking someone's word. No offense.

[Mazz]

Tried Chaos Pierre solo, man he is so annoying when he splits in two at the end.



Other one had a little more HP, little extra damage and I'd be able to do it, might invest in buff freezers and an onyx apple for next time

I don't have screenshot proof, but we did get drops the last time we went... it's been a little over a week since then, however. Nexon may have hotfixed them, which wouldn't surprise me one damn bit.

I doubt it's very possible at all to kill him solo right now because he's glitched. If he switches colors after you kill one of the pierres he'll just split again. And you can't kill both of them in the same switch since you'll always heal one of them.

Ooooh that's pretty clever. When you respawn you don't have a hat until the next switch.

Yup, if you die and respawn just after he switches colours you can kill them both at the same time before you are assigned a new hat.

Yup, I remember Limgoon doing that once.

First successful Empress solo woooo!

How hard is empress right now compared to HT/Vellum?

[Takebacker]

How hard is empress right now compared to HT/Vellum?

Harder than cht, muuuch more easily soloable than vellum.

[CherryPie]

How hard is empress right now compared to HT/Vellum?

Empress has 64? b HP, ontop of V1s and V2s, and if you don't have enough burst at the end, it'll heal.

i.e. its beyond comparison comapred to HT/Vellum

And the time limit is 30mins too. Also, reason you see less V2 gears is because it only summons V2s after chipping down nearly 55-60b HP :(

[Blunderr]

How hard is empress right now compared to HT/Vellum?

For reference, I can 1hko HT with my ultimate, I can kill regular Vellum before he goes underground even once, CHT takes me about 2 minutes including spawn delays, and I can barely take out 3% of CVellum's HP in 5 minutes.

To echo CherryPie, the thing with Empress right now is her heals. In order to kill her you need to be able to deal a good 10% of her 64b HP in about 30 seconds, otherwise her HP will shoot right back up to 40% and you're screwed.

If you just want to do V2s, it's significantly easier, doable with about 200% stat and like 700 w.att, maybe even less.

That sounds a bit low for adventurer/non-OP-new classes - definitely not enough for marksmen.
I have over 250% stat and 900+ att and I can only get her HP down to half in 30minutes (190% boss, ~150% PDR, hitting 7~9m lines)

For me too, I am NL with 269% boss 122% pdr hitting 6~8m lines

[MountLag]

You need more because Shinsoo is the most annoying pomegranate ever

[Blunderr]

Right... Shinsoo... How could I forget Shinsoo....

Yeah you guys do have a pretty good point. I was going by the minimum it took me to do V2s but I but I conveniently took for granted that I have 25% less damage reduction than most classes at empress, and I've been sitting at 285% boss for a while, too.

[Stereo]

Took me a bit to get to it cause I didn't read the patch notes >_>



Pretty OK boss fight. Fun times dodging his attacks. Annoying how Hayato jumps forward during Sanrenzan (as well as every other attack).

Mount is permanent, badges are permanent too (but not great stats - random like Spiegelmann's.) Exp amounts to a bit under 1% even though I'm pretty much the lowest level that can get to it.
