After the second wipe, the team finally made it to the third stage.
This time, the team was completely unlucky. The Boss released an area of effect skill, and several healers were hit by it. Coincidentally, a bunch of debuffs appeared at the same time, so it was inevitable that they would panic when choosing between saving themselves and saving the target. By the time the panic subsided, there weren't many people left standing.
Losing members meant that the overall combat power of the team was weakened, but that wasn't all. If they were killed by a debuff, the Boss would recover some HP.
After the third start, Lu Li arranged for support members to look after the healers and remove the debuffs on them in time. Lu Li wouldn't let them use life-saving items like the Darkmoon Card for this kind of Boss. It was best to leave those things for Nefarian.
With the previous experience, the start was much smoother. Other than Wander showing off his skills when he caught the Boss, he only managed to pull it back after a short distance.
"Pull it, don't let the Boss run around," Lu Li said as he wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
Fortunately, Wander managed to pull the Boss in the end. Otherwise, the Boss would have gone straight for Sanyue Yu and Darkness. No matter how ordinary the Boss' attack power was, it could easily kill Sanyue Yu and Darkness, not to mention that there were a bunch of ranged players around them.
"Don't worry, I'll pull the Boss. What are you worried about?" Wander said. He shouldn't be doubted.
"Anyway, you three just pull the Boss. Whoever makes a mistake will have their points deducted," Lu Li said.
"Hehe, can't you be a little more creative? You're always deducting points. "Wander's points had been deducted too much in this Instance Dungeon, and he hated this system. He didn't dare to make any mistakes now, or he wouldn't have enough points to bid for equipment.
Speaking of which, his identity was quite awkward.
He was the Main Tank, but he wasn't the most important one, so if there was equipment for the Main Tank, Weilan Haifeng would be given priority. Moreover, he wasn't a professional player, so the priority policy didn't apply to him. He could only rely on his points to bid for equipment.
Even if Lu Li was on good terms with him, there was nothing he could do about it. After all, Lu Li also had to convince the public.
However, apart from Wander, there was no other Defensive Paladin in this team, so it was a form of consideration for him. Moreover, no matter what, Wander was still one of the higher-ups. Under normal circumstances, the others wouldn't fight with him for equipment.
"World, pay attention. Prepare to take aggro." Lu Li calculated the time and reminded World's Best Friend.
Fortunately, they had arranged for three Main Tanks. The frequency at which AoE skills were released was too high, and the frequency at which the Main Tanks were changed correspondingly faster. Two Main Tanks were simply not enough.
The three main tanks had completely different styles. Weilan Haifeng was chuunibyou, Wander was sloppy, and World's Best Friend was more like a normal main tank. He was serious and carried out the tasks given by Lu Li completely. Such a person might not be able to spontaneously save the situation, but at least he was a very qualified main tank.
"Melee players, take this skill and go all out. Try to enter the third stage when this wave of skills is over," Lu Li said as he glanced at the Boss' HP and set a small goal for everyone.
Time Lapse appeared again!
This time, just as Lu Li had predicted, they had entered the third stage.
"Try to pass this Boss." Lu Li looked at the remaining team members and felt that it would not be a problem at all.
None of the three Main Tanks had died, and only two of the healers had died. The rest could hold on, and there were enough people responsible for dispelling debuffs. Lu Li's professional judgment made him instantly realize that they had to kill the Boss this time.
The only thing to worry about was the Boss' Berserk in the final stage.
In fact, the few Bosses after the little Red Dragon's Berserk in the end was nothing.
This was especially true for Chromaggus. These early skills were much more powerful than Berserk. After all, Berserk only increased the Boss' ATK and Attack Speed. The reason why Chromaggus was so powerful had nothing to do with its own ATK. Even if its ATK increased, it would not reach the level of the little Red Dragon.
"Warriors, pay attention to your HP. It's time to kill it. Main Tanks, pay attention to the Boss' Berserk. Don't let your guard down at the last moment. If you fail miserably, it will be a big loss," Lu Li said, giving a simple final reminder.
Two minutes later, Lu Li and the others won the third team battle.
It was a little unexpected, but it was also expected. After all, this wasn't the strongest combination of skills. As long as they understood a few of the Boss' skills and coordinated well, with a little bit of luck, killing the Boss was not a problem at all.
Hypothetically, what if it was Time Lapse and Ignite?
Lu Li felt that they probably didn't even have enough hourglasses, and they might even need a spare Spider Silk Sac. Or, they might as well not bother and just wait until the cooldown next week.
This wasn't a joke. If they really did encounter Time Lapse and Ignite or Acid, Lu Li really planned to give up. Ruling Sword was not rich at all. This kind of battle would cost them hundreds of gold coins. If they fought for a few days like the little Red Dragon, then the gains would not make up for the losses.
As for the problem of the First Clear, Lu Li wasn't worried at all.
He was worried about the previous Molten Core, and perhaps the next Instance Dungeon, but he wasn't worried about Blackwing's Nest.
Even if they went back to drink and party, it wouldn't affect the progress of Blackwing's Nest at all. This was because the other clubs were all stuck at the little Red Dragon and couldn't advance at all. Lu Li estimated that they would be stuck there for at least two weeks. After all, the other clubs didn't have the Dragon Slayer's Roar buff anymore.
However, no one would complain about clearing the Instance Dungeon quickly.
The sooner they killed Seven Dogs, the sooner they could defeat Nefarian. There were only a few days left before the Donghua Cup competition. Although Lu Li didn't necessarily have to play, as the boss of the club, he had to pay attention to the performance of his competitors.
"Loot the equipment," Lu Li said as he let everyone repair their equipment, while he let Canmeng loot the body.
Due to the difficulty of the Boss, the attributes of the few gems were relatively good. Lu Li obtained a gem that increased Evasion. The effect was to reduce the probability of critical hits and damage. He planned to embed it on his pants. Different gems required different equips. Although it wasn't that strict, if you embed a gem that increased movement speed on your hat, the effect wouldn't be very good.
However, an Enhanced Skill Book had appeared.
This was a Paladin damage output skill. Her Tears had spent all his wealth to obtain this skill book.
At the moment, the probability of an Enhanced Skill Book dropping was very low. Other than a few rare and difficult quests, Wild Bosses, there was only a probability of it being dropped in large Instance Dungeons.
As long as they could get the skill book, it didn't matter how big the price was.
