After midnight, a new cooldown would begin and the Boss that had been killed in the Instance Dungeon would reappear.
In other words, if they could kill the Black Dragon Prince today, then they could continue tomorrow. If they couldn't kill it today, then the Black Dragon Prince tomorrow wouldn't be the same Black Dragon Prince today. If they couldn't kill it today, then they would have one less Boss to fight.
Now that Lu Li had taken over the Instance Dungeon, he was going to be serious.
Wander: Am I not serious?
"I thought you guys could kill it when I wasn't here." This was the first thing Lu Li said after joining the team. It was very hurtful, but Wander and Sky Moon couldn't do anything about it. It seemed that every time Lu Li came to command, they could only defeat the Boss. Without Lu Li, they couldn't do anything.
"Why don't I command first and you see where the flaws are?" Wander said.
"Sure, you go first." Lu Li didn't have any objections. One more loss was nothing to the club.
The battle began. In the first phase, someone went to talk to Nefarian. Everyone had heard this conversation for a long time. After the conversation, the door to the left and right started spawning Dragons.
There were many types of Dragons, corresponding to the Chromatic Dragon and the Chromatic Dragon that Nefarian had created.
The Red Dragon dealt stacking fire damage to the surroundings. Not only that, but it was also immune to fire spells.
The Blue Dragon dealt frost damage to the surroundings and reduced attack speed. It could absorb mana and was immune to ice spells.
The Green Dragon was the weakest. Its skills could stun players for one second and reduce aggro.
The Black Dragon released a large area of fire damage to the surroundings. It had high Fire and Dark Resistance.
The Bronze Dragon released a large area of arcane damage to the surroundings. It had high Arcane Resistance.
There was also the Chromatic Dragon that Nefarian had created. Every once in a while, one would respawn. This thing had to be killed quickly. After all, it was very strong. If there were too many of them, it would be troublesome.
At this stage, Nefarian was invincible. Players couldn't deal any damage to him. Even if you didn't attack him, it didn't mean that he wouldn't attack you. He wasn't focused on summoning his dragon. Instead, he was using his AoE Shadow skills to control the players.
The controlled players would either heal or deal damage. In any case, they would temporarily defect to the opposing faction.
"You guys are taking too long to clear out the Draconic beasts. Haven't you figured out a reasonable way to clear out the Draconic beasts after fighting for so long?" Lu Li could not help but speak up after watching for a while. At this stage, they had to kill a certain number of Dragonians as soon as possible and ensure that their team did not suffer too many casualties. Otherwise, they would not be able to fight anymore.
If they couldn't even deal with the first stage properly, they wouldn't be able to defeat this Boss no matter what.
"I've sorted out a set of countermeasures, but I haven't gotten used to it yet. It's a little messy," Wander said.
"Those on the Red Dragon, drink potions. Those on the Fire Wall, use Traps for the Hunters, and Blizzard for the Mages. The rest of you don't need to be a hindrance. Two Warriors, go and make sure that the Draconic beasts don't run around. Two Warriors from Team Four, that's you. Don't run around. You guys stay there."
"The Chromatic Dragon is coming out. Those from the Physical Department, go and kill it. Shift Team Six and Seven to the Physical Department. Team Six, focus on killing the Chromatic Dragon on the left …"
At first, everyone was running around in a mess. Now that Lu Li had made the adjustments, everyone basically did their own things.
Their efficiency instantly increased.
Moreover, Lu Li had everything at his fingertips. Who should go and fight the monsters that came out, what type of skills to use, and what potions to drink.
The others didn't suspect anything. When Lu Li went out to do quests, he also took the time to pay attention to their First Clear. It could be said that he had accompanied them the entire time. Everything that everyone knew, Lu Li naturally knew as well.
"Those who are controlled, Polymorph. Sky Moon is in charge of Polymorph for Team One and Two. Huadi Liqing is in charge of …" Originally, Wander had already made arrangements. Lu Li made some slight adjustments. This way, he could ensure that anyone who was controlled would be immediately released.
"The Boss' Shadow Bolts can be dodged. What do you think the purpose of all these pillars in this hall is? Just dodge them a little. Don't keep drinking Shadow Resistance Potions. They're free!"
"If you can't dodge them, then just drink them. What's the point of giving you Shadow Resistance Potions?"
Lu Li hoped that everyone in the team wouldn't become puppets. They needed to have a bit of a spirit of discovery. They needed to be able to make decisions for themselves at least once in an emergency.
As time passed, the first stage slowly passed.
It took longer than it really needed, but Lu Li didn't expect to clear it this time, so everything was still acceptable.
In the second stage, the dragon-shaped Nefarian descended from the sky …
Frankly speaking, the scene of him descending from the sky was quite cool. The impact on the players was also very strong. Later on, the game company even made this scene into a CG and inserted it into the official promotional video.
There was one thing that made Lu Li very happy.
When he first entered the game, Nefarian's descent from the sky wasn't just for show. This kind of descent dealt damage, and the damage wasn't just average. It wasn't a problem at all to instantly kill a large number of players.
Only when everyone was equipped with Nefarian's sister's Dragonskin Scale Cloaks could they just barely survive.
But now, they actually didn't.
When Lu Li first found out, he almost laughed. Luckily, he had the logistics department produce Onyxia's Scale Cloaks as quickly as possible.
In reality, this damned skill was added in two more versions of the game.
It was said that the more difficult Dawnlight was, the easier it would become. In fact, it wasn't completely true. At least for Nefarian, the game company really increased the difficulty to the point that if a 40-man team didn't have 20 or 30 Cloaks, they wouldn't even be able to clear it.
So, the order of Onyxia's Nest and Blackwing's Nest was set. If they didn't defeat Onyxia's Nest and get the Cloaks, they wouldn't be able to challenge her brother.
As for now, don't be fooled by Nefarian's flashy descent. In fact, the Main Tank was completely fine.
In the second stage, one of the biggest difficulties was gone. They only needed to deal with the Boss's roll call, as well as the Fear and the Fog Curse.
However, the team still got wiped at this stage.
Although Wander and Sky Moon had been particularly lucky to reach the third stage a few times, the main reason why they got wiped was in the second stage, mainly because of the Fear and the roll call.
This time, Lu Li was a bit of an exception. The main reason why the team got wiped was because of the double effects of the Fog Curse and the roll call.
The Fog Curse's effect was to reduce healing by 75%. This was very damaging, but it wasn't troublesome to deal with. They just needed to find a Druid to take care of it. Wander had indeed found someone to do this, and it was someone like Innocent Child, who had absolutely no problems with his skills.
The key was that this time, their luck was particularly bad. Innocent Child had actually been called.
No one had dispelled the curse, and by the time the other Druids reacted, it was already too late. At this stage, as long as the Main Tank moved, the team would be wiped.
"Actually, it's very simple. Can't you just find a Mage as a substitute? This type of team battle has very little room for error. Any small mistake can lead to the team being wiped. Why don't you consider a situation where a key class has to face two different situations at the same time? "
Wander could only slap his thigh.
"I'll lead once for you guys to see. We'll still follow the most basic supply like this," Lu Li said.
The most basic supply was that they couldn't let go of their potions. For the time being, they were still in the testing phase. Only when they had a certain amount of confidence would they go all out. If they went all out from the beginning to the end, Ruling Sword would have already gone bankrupt because they couldn't afford to First Clear them.
In the first stage, Lu Li's command wasn't too different from Wander's.
It was just that the battlefield under his command didn't look as clean as Wander's plan. In fact, it looked a bit messy, but everyone's efficiency in farming monsters was much higher. Naturally, the time spent in the first stage was also a lot less.
When Wander was commanding, when Nefarian landed, there were actually a few dragons on the ground. Fortunately, Wander reacted quickly and arranged for other defensive classes to pull the monsters to the side and kill them.
Because Lu Li was killing quickly in the first stage, the ground had already been cleared before Nefarian even landed.
"Second team's Priests, make sure to cast Fear Ward on the Main Tanks. If one of them fails, I'll hold you responsible. Even if you don't heal at all this time, I won't blame you," Lu Li said. This was his responsibility, and he also decisively gave up on the healing of a Priest.
"Innocent bro, pay attention to dispelling the curse. Qingcheng Yun, you'll be the backup to dispel the curse."
Lu Li directly took two professional players to use. Either one of them could do this job, and with the two of them working together, at least the Fog Curse wouldn't be a factor that could wipe the whole team.
"Thieves, stop hiding and face me!"
The Black Dragon Prince's voice rumbled. The first class that was called out was the Thief profession. All the Thieves were teleported to the front of the dragon's head, and none of them could move …
At this time, Nefarian was still continuously attacking. Occasionally, flames would shoot out from his mouth and hit the Main Tanks' faces. This kind of flame was called Shadow Flame, and it dealt 3,937 fire damage to enemies in a cone-shaped area in front of the caster. Apart from the Main Tanks, not many people could withstand such a large area of effect damage.
If there were no accidents, all the Thieves would be buried in the flames.
"Feng Shao, move to position D. Everyone else, stay away from the fan-shaped area." At this time, Lu Li, who was unable to move, still calmly gave out orders.
Weilan Haifeng moved the dragon's head slightly, and the direction of the flame changed.
Although the Thieves still had to stay in place for a while, at least their lives were safe.
"Fear. Good job, Machine Bro. Remember to reapply it at the right time." Lu Li was satisfied with the Priests that he had arranged to cast Fear Ward. The cooldown time of the Fear Ward and the cooldown time of the Fear Ward were about the same. If there was any mistake in the arrangement, the Fear Ward might come, but the Fear Ward might not have finished its cooldown.
Some guilds were dying here, and had no choice but to arrange for two Priests to take turns casting Fear Ward on the Main Tanks.
"Priests, all of you stop healing. You can cast shields. I repeat, Priests don't need to heal. The other healers, focus on healing. Don't fall and don't die. Did you hear me? Machine Bro was just praising you, and now you're so full of yourself!"
