I was expecting a steamroll like in low rank, but got my first quest fail from this asshole and his turbo fireballs that he does while standing. Good fight tho

Those fucking fireballs and his damn Tigrex charge are the bane of my existence.

He's got some precision aiming on that shit. I keep getting nailed when I think im out of it.

Same I think he slightly adjusts his charge if he's far away enough and you move, so you have to move more than you think, or it'll hit you anyways. Plus, he's so big it's annoying for sure. And those fireballs have a massive AOE. If you're dead center, it gives Fatalis PTSD lmao.

The best counter I've found so far is when he stands up, dodge the area attack he does under his feet, and then mount the seikret before he does the standing fireball. They've got a big explosion radius , but the seikret moves fast enough to get outside it.

Honestly the one fight that doesn’t feel like cheating when I call my seikret because i swear it feels like it’s the only way to avoid the fireballs

I was experimenting with long sword during the downtime, and put away my SNS for a bit.

I FAFO. Triple carted me super quick with LS.

Locked in with SNS and got him, but it was a pleasant challenge!

I'm gonna be playing Insect Glaive this time around. I used Dual Blades in my LR fight against it.

I've found my new main in IG so I'll be using it in the HR fight.

I'm waiting until I get off work this afternoon to play it.

I'm a hammer main and been messing around IG the past few weeks. I quickly pivoted to IG for HR Zoh Shia this morning and manage to solo it. I won't go into details, but it felt fantastic and it really make IG shine.

We didn't get hammer changes/balance update today did we? Is that coming at the end of May or whatever?

u/Balbaem 2d ago

I don't think we did no. It wasn't in the patch notes at least and I havent seen any changes. Probably later this month for the blossom festival or at reydau. Or anytime really

You took my same path, DB to IG as a new player. This fight is an absolute blast with IG. Spin to win baby!

I thought I was safe going at his tail while he stood up for the big fireball attack. Motherfucker turned 180 and blasted me all the way back to camp.

u/noob_dragon 2d ago

Yeah as lance it was pretty rough. First major unblockable attack without guard up that I was not expecting. Even with guard up, he has an attack that targets the floor that will give you the burning condition, complete bullshit.

same here. carted once, rejoined and he threw a fatass fireball at my dome and carted again. Survived a little longer but didn't even get the skulls to pop up till i failed.
