I'm trying to empower you and let you know, it isn't nearly as hard as you think, hang in there, play it smart, and you will have a boss+ by the end of this week. Good luck to everyone!

Lol, I'm not sure why you're getting so angry. Are you seriously getting mad? I thought we were having an intelligent conversation, until you started your tantrum. I'm not sure what to say... sorry?

Like I said earlier, I prefer 5/2 because it works for me (I need to compete on the leaderboard too). I just know from personal experience that having just the big 4 made it impossible for me to reach level 43 of the epic boss (I wasn't even close). I know for a fact that going the 4/3 method wouldn't have changed a thing. Even if going 4/3 allowed me to progress a bit further, I would eventually run out of the use of friends.

Now with that said, I'm on Android, so I don't have a 12% guild bonus and I only had a few friends that were higher than me at the time. Luckily, the leaderboard was weak, so I got reward bonuses that helped me along. All I'm saying is that I'm not sure how others are going to bridge that gap. Obviously for you and UN, you guys are pros at this game and I can only hope to reach your level one day, but in the meantime, I will have to slum it with my inferior finger tapping.

Btw, I'm being facetious on purpose because of your tantrum (if you couldn't tell).

FWIW, this whole conversation started, because one guy asked what he should do next. He couldn't pass level 43 and was wondering if he should build non-plus epic boss armor as a stepping stone. According to you, he just needs to use 3/4 method and hang in there. Oh ya and join a guild of children with super jians.

Btw, I'm being facetious again. I truly do believe. ;)

And there's the key. There is no one-size-fits-all answer as to whether 5+2 with 3 friends or 4+3 (or 3+4) with 4 friends will do more damage -- it all depends on the armor you and your friends have available. You really do have to do the math if you want to fully optimize.

What are the stats for the non + version of this armor?

This boss and armor looks ugly! It does have good stats though, I missed Jackalope so I could really do with a Water/Earth armor. Not that I could get to 43 though so i'll pass this boss. I'll fight it a bit to get some rewards, but I'll use my friends to farm some evil jewels.

not having much trouble with this boss.... got rocfeather robes+ (spirit/wind) for my main character. So I'm doing about 600 damage per hit.... the level 100+ friends I have help a lot though :)

My character is at level 40. I'm going to beat level 15 today, with the help of some gems perhaps. There's no way i'm making it to lv43.

What level do you think is required to beat level 15?

yes wait when i began i cant beat level 15
now i am lvl 75 i go to lvl 23 with only one friend in one shot

the more you lvl up, the more you are strong and have life and your flower too

my advice keep growing(lvl 100), craft the big for + and you will easyly reach lvl21

Yep.
Swamp+ 816/1120 (1936 combined)
Slimebane (non-plus) 908/857 (1765 combined)
So with that storyline armor you'll have better stats for an earth/water armor and gems in your pocket to spend on your castle (TFs, smiths).

The armor looks ugly and I can't get to lvl 43 anyway. My goal is level 21 to get the free armours to upgrade my infernal or shaman. I probably won't use any friends and definately will not use any of my precious gems ;)

Question if I get 50 to craft regular slime armour and get that to 35, then get another 50 from summon stone will the slime armour + be 50 globs to craft?

Yes, but that would be quite an impractical use of 275 gems.

Well I know I will get close to 40 kills but just making sure if I don't have gems at the time I can summon and wanted to make sure it would be 50 globes for the second crafting also,
Thanks guys

Not as impractical as the Cape Spectacular, yet people still buy it. Mind you, I automatically think hacker/cheater when I see the cape. What kind of sane person would buy that thing? I guess the same type of person that has all the top armors in plus versions... we all know how insanely stupid the drop rates are on the DPC chests. So when someone has all the best armors and every set of wings and so on... it screams out 1 of 2 things.

1) Stupidity
2) Cheater <-- this is more likely, because true stupidity is only for the select few

Take your pick. Lol.

Haha, can't wait for Eunuchorn to jump into this thread and talk about how much money he wastes on this game and his enlightened view on economics.

3) incredible luck with the free gems offers?
(Some people seem to (annoyingly) get dozens of free gems each day...)

Banner for Nemesis+ just showed up which oddly enough seems to show a dual element nemesis?!?
(water/air: 1 neutral element and 1 strong/weak element?!?)

I just got shafted. I jumped on the offer because water wind was a good combo and better than atlantean avenger., I got crappy mono spirit though. False advertising and they already changed the banner after I used the gems. The stats aren't even what the banner said... not cool.

Hmm, now I'm wondering if the next boss might perhaps be water/air...

Incredibly lucky would mean 1 great armor after hundreds of attempts. Multiple great armors is not luck... pick options 1 or 2.

So soon after Boreas? I haven't done a historical analysis but I suspect there's usually 5+ weeks between given combos? (Jack to Slimelord ish)

I suspect it was just a mistaken content posting. Happens all the time at organizations which are much larger than Gree.

I'm keeping a record of bosses I've faced, and I'm thinking we're due an Earth/Air Boss. Failing that, Water/Fire.

in that case I will do all effort to get 43

I tried to do some research but hit some walls on the older bosses and made some uneducated assumptions on others; does this match your list?

Code:

Boss Name Element(s) Steam Wizard Water/Fire Grim Gargoyle Satyr Varuna, Asura Lord Earth/Water ? Frost Giant Efreet Spirit/Fire ? Bone Dragon Gremlin Forgemaster Earth/Fire Flamegem Construct Fire Cumulo Nimboss King Crab Water Drax the Dragon Rider Water/Earth ?

So after being shafted with the bs false advertising banner with the water wind nemisis, the banner is still wrong... I maxed the nemisis+ mono spirit that I didn't want, and the attack is max at 633 and defence is at mid 500... wtf

It's back to fire already I believe. Fire was its original element.

It was was originally not fire, then they changed it to fire, then changed it again, then changed it back to fire.

Wait, wasn't the mess only with the armor, but not the boss?

The elemental issues were with the armor only. The boss stayed mono fire his entire duration. It was the armor that kept flip flopping, even while the boss was still active.

Hey Revelate... nice list. I have taken this list, filled in the missing bosses/elements, and added it to the Data Sheet with some additional fields (and gave you credit in the Data Sheet Admin thread).

Ah shucks Jello; thank you but honestly I simply codified the information I could find here on the forum, in the armor data sheet, and finally the Wiki. I was a little surprised we didn't have it somewhere readily accessible that I could find but credit honestly goes to the various members who created and maintained the datasheet, Beth, and a few others I don't know about over time.

What about a mono Air boss? There hasn't been such since February Cumulo Nimboss.
08-04-2013, 02:24 PM

I think mono bosses fall very short usually. With more powerful armors and multiple guild bonuses, I think a mono boss would have been the best "breather" after all those power house dragons. I love mono element bosses, if only for fusing double mono legendaries for better chances at decent armors.
08-04-2013, 04:16 PM

Mono armors need more love! Why not?

Of course its unfair now that with guild bonuses they would get only half of the possible extra power. But then.. Why not make it so that they take bonuses from their matching and element, aaand from the element their are strong against, i.e water fire!

I love mono armors! They seem classy! Not to mention they can never take doubled damage counter, id like to see a tank spec mono armor!

Looks like I'm going to beat Glorg levl 43 tomorrow with a rag-tag team of knights, of which none have very suitable armor. My third knight is using a saucepan for a helmet, a dustbin lid for a shield, and wields a pointy stick.

The difference is having powerful friends who can do the killing for me, plus the weakness of Glorg compared to the last three Ancient Dragons.

Wish I had powerful friends. Granted only lvl 67 (with big4) and only halfways with WW which is my only decent armor against slimelord, but can't even make it to lvl 21!
I'd appreciate it if some of the topplayers here could spare a friend spot :)

If I had wanted to, my friends could have dragged me to level 35 with my horrible AA+, CA+, Swamp+ setup, but I decided to stop at 28, so my friends can be assigned to Evil Jewels farm duty.
For the next 3 days, I'll just be doing 3/2 runs at the epic boss doing less than half the health bar in damage each time a bit to protect my damage leaderboard ranking and because there's zero cost associated anyway...

Woke up this morning and got to 40. I've been extremely casual so far. (saturday I didn't even pick up the game). I'm using some really underpowered armor. How you ask!? I got 5 friends with moontide. dat 1900 att.
