Act 40. Second form
"Be careful, this guy doesn't die that easily. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
Shiloh had the opportunity to remind the others that he was the only one on the scene who knew about the Curse Tree Ulster, so he had to get this information out in the shortest possible time.
"The Curse Tree Ulster has a core, wrapped in a hard shell, and ordinary attacks can hurt its body, but it can't hurt the core, so no matter how severe the trauma is, it can quickly recover with the magic it absorbs."
Shiloh explained, but it was actually due to the boss's mechanics.
Spell the Great Tree Ulster is divided into four phases, there are four health bars, the first stage is the big tree form, will attack the surrounding enemies with thorns, compared to the general tree demon only the damage is increased, and after being defeated, it will become the second form, the curse form.
The dust fell, and what appeared in front of everyone's eyes was a huge monster that could no longer be called a "tree demon".
The roots were corrected, forming a thick four-legged body, which was deeply rooted in the soil, and the wound cut by the frost was wrapped in thick green juice, which healed quickly, and in the blink of an eye, there was no trace. Several thick brambles formed five huge arms, waving to drive the wind, giving a heavy sense of oppression.
On the front of the trunk, the scaly bark of the snake cracked, and a terrifying face appeared on it, and the eyes burned with a faint green flame, a ghostly and terrifying face, recalling the deepest horrors of nightmares.
The reason why it's called the Curse Tree is also because of this form, and honestly, the other monsters in "Rainbow Verse" except for those humanoid monsters grow more and more twisted the later they get.
At the beginning, monsters like the fire-eating Sierra and the ice dragon Aceris can still make people find real-life prototypes, and the first form of the curse tree Ulster is a tree, and as for the monsters in those later copies, they can only be described as indescribable.
Shiloh remembers that one of the most disgusting dungeons he has ever played is the Deep Sea Temple located under the North Sea, which is full of a large number of eyeballs and tentacles and the claustrophobic oppression of the deep sea, so that many players dare not swim in the water for a period of time, and players with low psychological tolerance will even suffer from phobia because the VR game is too realistic, and will not play from now on.
"All staff, spread out, surround it!"
Not shaken by the shocked appearance of the cursed tree, Villahir heard Shiloh's words, and immediately laid out a tactic and ordered the team to disperse.
Shiloh couldn't help but marvel at the Ranger General's decisiveness.
After Spell Chases the Great Tree Ulster enters the second form, although it looks terrifying, and the attack power has become much stronger, as long as it is touched by those arms, it almost means instant kill, but the flexibility is not as good as the first form.
In the first form, dozens of thorns are almost unguardable, although one blow is not enough to kill, but after being hit, it is easy to fall into passivity, and eventually be tortured to death by continuous attacks, at the same time, this stage of the spell chase tree also has a certain ability to move, making it more difficult to deal with, if the player is tired of defense, it is easy to sneak up on it, and eventually become its bait.
After entering the second form, the spell tree with fixed roots loses its ability to move and becomes a living target for long-range professions, and there are only five thorns gathered into arms, which means that as long as the number of people is enough, then the monster in front of you will be flawed all over the body.
When carrying out the strategy, the most commonly used tactic is also to start with the burst skill output, quickly hit the spell tree into the second form, and then slowly consume its vitality, and now with the advantage of numbers, scattering the attack is indeed the best strategy.
Shiloh originally wanted to inform this tactic, but he didn't expect Vera Hill to make such a judgment in an instant, and it was indeed worthy of the strategic intuition of a battlefield veteran.
However, in the game, the curse tree is faced with ten foot men who are controlled by the player and have experienced a hundred battles, although there are sixteen people at the moment, but twelve of them are just well-trained soldiers, and their strength is only bronze mid-level, and they have no experience in dealing with this kind of heterosexual monster, in the words of Shiloh in the game, the current situation is a thigh with fifteen leg hairs, although there is a gold-level Vera Hill in charge, it is still necessary to be cautious.
"Of the five arms of the Curse Tree, four will take turns attacking, and only the longest one will attack in between the four arms. Its sneak attacks are also very regular, and each time the order is postponed one place, as long as you master this rhythm, it is easy to dodge its attacks. ”
Shiloh stood a little farther away, continuing to explain the boss's strategy.
"In addition, there will be a green poisonous mist where the arm has been attacked, be careful not to step in, and be careful when moving, don't push yourself into a corner, if there is really no place to move, just retreat."
In the second form of the curse tree, the green sap will flow out of the thorns and atomize to form a poisonous gas, leaving a puddle of poisonous fog on the ground after each attack of the arm, so as to limit the player's movement.
Therefore, if there are too many people to crusade against this boss, it will backfire because of the lack of position, and the route of the movement must be planned more carefully.
Shiloh remembers that in the game, through the marking system, the five hands of the curse tree are marked with star skull cakes, and then assign personnel to deal with their respective arms, and then the overall command to design the route, although there is no system of auxiliary markers, but fortunately, the soldiers have a high degree of execution, do not have to worry about too big mistakes.
"Listen, move clockwise from the inside out while dodging, only dodge to a minimum, rest assured, these arms can't attack the side, just pay attention to the remaining arm."
Speaking of the classic tactics that players have devised after thousands of wasteland clearances, Shiloh tensed his nerves, fearing that the soldiers would make a mistake.
"Listen to him and get moving."
Verahir quickly understood Shiloh's tactics, and while surprised by the young man's tactical literacy, he also gave orders for his soldiers to attack according to Shiloh's tactics.
"The abscess on the bark is its weak point, attack those places as much as you can!"
The bark of the Curse Chase Tree is as strong as steel, and unless it is an epic weapon like Frost, it is difficult to deal substantial damage, but its weakness is also obvious, which is the abscesses hanging on the epidermis, although breaking these pus will cause quite disgusting sap, but it is undeniable that this is the way to quickly weaken the Curse Chase Tree.
"Your Highness Alysfers, please be on guard in the back."
Shiloh asked Princess Elyfils to protect the defenseless Luluan in the rear, and took a step forward himself, stepping into the forefront of the fight against the curse Ulster Tree.
