As soon as the battle began, Weilan Haifeng knew that he had been tricked again.
Warlock Jin 'do's attack and defense were not on the same level as the previous Bosses. He was ridiculously strong.
"Steady, healers, heal him," Lu Li was also observing.
Jin 'do was a very powerful character in this period. He had a large number of shadows and endless totems, which made the players exhausted. After a few changes in versions, when Lu Li entered this Instance Dungeon in his previous life, Jin' do had already become an equipment supplier that could be exploited by others.
The first thing Jin 'do did was fight totems. Other than attacking the current aggro target, the Warlock Jin' do's main task was to fight totems.
There was a yellow totem, which was a will-control totem. It could control players and be used by Jin 'do. He seemed to be very good at using others to achieve his own goals. He used the identity of Yeh' kinya to trick Lu Li and Xiaoba Jiang to help him with quests. Now, he controlled players to attack other players.
There was also a green totem, which was even worse.
"F * ck, this is a healing totem. Kill it, kill it," Weilan Haifeng shouted. He couldn't fight totems while pulling the Boss, and he didn't have the energy to do so.
A dagger hit the green totem, and then someone followed up with an ice spear. Finally, this healing totem that was healing Warlock Jin 'do was killed. This was different from what Lu Li remembered. The totem in his memory was very fragile. Anyone who attacked it, no matter what attack skill it was, could destroy the totem.
In reality, the current totem needed two attacks.
"Big Brother, you and I are responsible for the healing totem. Qingcheng Yun, if someone is controlled, you are responsible for Polymorph. Cher, you and Canmeng fight will-control totems. Wander, if those of us fighting totems are controlled, you help out. If Weilan Haifeng is controlled, you take the Boss first," Lu Li began to assign tasks.
He didn't think that he would be able to kill Warlock Jin 'do in one go. That was impossible.
He wanted everyone to understand the mechanics of this Boss so that they could defeat it.
Then, everyone finally realized what the pit of skeletons was for.
At the side of the venue, there was a depression, and a group of skeletons were dancing inside. It was very much like a group of demons dancing in a horror movie.
When Weilan Haifeng was clearing the small monsters, he went over to clear them. However, as soon as he came out of the depression, a large group of skeletons respawned. Therefore, everyone concluded that the monsters in the depression were temporarily unkillable. They might be monsters in the scenario.
Not long after they started the fight, this depression showed its value.
Kitty Likes Meat was directly teleported into the middle of the pile of skeletons and was instantly killed. Although the attack power of the skeletons wasn't high, there were many of them. When they attacked a player at the same time, it was still very fatal.
Hence, Lu Li arranged for a mage to stand beside the crater. As soon as a skeleton spawned from it, he would immediately cast a Blizzard spell.
The problem could be solved in minutes.
The next time someone was teleported inside, because the skeletons were killed as soon as they appeared, naturally, there wouldn't be a loss of members so early.
This problem had just been solved, and before everyone could breathe a sigh of relief, Weilan Haifeng was turned into a sheep by the Boss. Wander's aggro wasn't established in time, so a group of players died. Not long after, Lu Li announced the end of this battle.
This time, the team had gained quite a bit. At least they knew a few of the Boss's mechanics.
One was the totems. Jin 'do could release two types of totems. One was a healing totem, and the other was a mind control totem. In the battle, they had to focus on destroying the totems. A team should be specifically split up to deal with the totems. When the totems were placed, they should immediately clear them. If someone was controlled, the mage must immediately turn them into sheep.
Lu Li did this very well. He had already successfully solved the problem of the totems on his first try.
The second was these skeletons. If there were skeletons as soon as the people teleported in, it would be best to use damage reduction. Then, the mage at the edge of the depression could deal with these small skeletons and return to their original positions.
The third was the players that the Boss would randomly turn into sheep.
The worst was the Main Tank that Lu Li and the others had just encountered had been turned into a sheep.
Being turned into a sheep was different from being Feared.
If the Main Tank was Feared, the aggro would slowly decrease, and the Boss could still continue to attack the Main Tank. Once the Main Tank was turned into a sheep, the Boss would immediately stop attacking other targets. This was because once the Polymorph was attacked, it wouldn't be interrupted.
Warlock Jin 'do was an experienced caster, so it was impossible for him not to understand this simple logic.
After the second team wipe, they finally found out Warlock Jin 'do's ultimate move.
This was a curse. The cursed person would have their own shadow appear next to them. These shadows could only be seen by the cursed person, and only they could attack these shadows.
This curse was released very frequently, so the number of shadows on the scene would increase dramatically in the second stage.
Although they only dealt very little damage at the beginning, as they existed for a long time, their numbers would increase. Once the healers were targeted by these shadows, it would be very troublesome.
This was why Lu Li deliberately emphasized Shadow Protection before the battle. With Shadow Protection, it would reduce the damage these shadows caused to the players. In addition, Lu Li requested that after the DPS was cursed, they immediately change their target to the shadow beside them.
There was a very important point here. After the cursed person was cursed, they could not only see their own shadow, but also the shadows of others.
Therefore, at this time, after destroying their own shadow, it was best to help others.
The curse only lasted for about 15 seconds. However, the shadows only had about 1,500 HP, so a normal DPS player should be able to kill two shadows during the duration of the curse. Unfortunately, the shadows were immune to any type of AOE damage.
During this process of exploration, the team wiped a few more times.
Lu Li felt that they had spent the whole morning trying to solve this problem. It was not until noon that everyone was done with each step and successfully entered the third stage.
That's right, this Boss was divided into three stages, different from the previous Bosses that only had two stages. This showed Warlock Jin 'do's position as a big brother.
In the third stage, Warlocks seemed to become abnormally powerful.
Not only did their attack power skyrocket, but they also had lightning attacks during the attack process. It could be seen that Warlock Jin 'do's original class should be Shaman.
In this stage, Jin 'do would cast an "Neglect Zone" every once in a while, which was a green cover. The effect was very terrifying. When he stayed in the cover, the magic damage he received was greatly reduced. Almost half of the magic classes were useless.
"This should be very simple," shouted Lu Li. "You just pull it out of the cover. We'll stand inside the cover. Such a simple strategy, do you need me to remind you?"
Actually, he was just standing and talking. If he hadn't come into contact with those guides in his previous life, he probably wouldn't have thought of such a "simple" strategy. After all, everyone subconsciously felt that the skills used by the Boss would only work on him. Moreover, with such a high efficiency, how could it be pulled out just because you wanted to?
Because Weilan Haifeng and the others didn't know this.
Therefore, when Weilan Haifeng pulled the Boss out, everyone stood as far as possible inside the cover. Instantly, they admired Lu Li from the bottom of their hearts.
The damage reduction that should have been enjoyed by the Boss was enjoyed by the players.
The damage that the Boss dealt to the players was reduced, but the damage that the players dealt to the Boss was much higher when the Boss was inside the cover. The result of this addition and reduction made the third stage, which originally looked like it could wipe at any time, a joke.
No matter how hard the Boss fought, this stage was the easiest.
"It seems that if we can fight this Boss into the third stage, we've basically cleared it," said Wander emotionally.
