SO I didnt have Zao at max level, so I used Thunder Lizard Runt, 212, Headbutt, Hibernate, Zap and then Headbutt, Zap again on Runehoof and he dies.

Runehoof's stuns messed up a few tries, and missed on Slugger with the Moonfire, but eventually got it. Took about 8 tries to get through the RNG. Thank you. :)

kess wrote on 2021-05-04 16:22:42

finally - tried so many of the strats so many times for this one. A bit of rng still but managed this one second try.

Worked first time as listed but the Call Darkness did crit on Runehoof.

If you don't crit on the first Horn Gore then the Charge won't kill Slugger. That said, keep going - if you get super lucky on Runehoof missing due to Darkness, you can still survive (even if Familiar gets stunned by Runehoof!) Took about 8 tries to get it to work but it ultimately did.

This strategy works if you can get Zao's Headbutt to stun Runehoof. This forces Duster to the front. Use Felline Familar to Prowl and then Call Darkness which kills Duster, and then brings back Runehoof. Xu-Fu can take care of him with Prowl and Moonfire.

Between bad stuns, low damage on the first horn gore, and bad crits it took a few tries but does work.

tdminial wrote on 2020-12-29 05:24:43

1st try: Slugger didn't die
2nd try: headbutt stuns Zao
3rd try: headbutt stuns Runehoof and Duster is swapped in Duster survives FF with 3 HP Zao is stunned by Runehoof
4th try: Zao dies to headbutt FF is stunned by Horn attack Xu-Fu dies to predatory strike
5th try: Zao is stunned by headbutt FF is stunned by horn attack dies bf getting an attack in
6th try: Zao is stunned on headbutt (dies) FF gets prowl and cast darkness is then stunned by horn attack (dies) Xu-Fu avoids stun and dies to predatory strike
7th try: slugger doesn't die
8th try: Runehoof stunned by headbutt, Duster comes in FF manages to kill Duster, Xu-fu avoids stun but since NOTHING ON THE ENEMY SIDE FRICKING MISSES dies to horn attack when it's off CD
9th try: Zao dies to Horn attack (no stuns for the first time) FF surpringly survives 2nd horn attack (with 4hp) and isn't stunned, Runehoof survives and kills FF only to miss (FINALLY call darkness pays off and he misses on Xu-fu who kills him with spirit claws), Prowl (damage reduction on predatory strike) and moonfire somehow kills duster
I'm sure it could've been worse, but if this wasn't the only one left to get the achivement I wouldn't have done it
