I'm 322ap Awak Dosa, managed to do 1 level 6 so far on Pig but just wanna know if i should be doing 6's or trying for 7's or higher for my AP i have no idea, and which 5 should i focus on doing ie the easiest ones
Maybe I'm just not good at it. But beyond the light orbs, I was only able to beat levels 5 through 7 once I gained more AP and DP. You really notice the difference the more AP you have, even though the game says otherwise.
As for the easiest bosses, by far the easiest is the Bamboo Legion Lieutenant. He's the simplest at any level. He's the only one I managed to beat at level 10.
Black shrine C7 are not worth the time it takes to do them, just do c6, all are easy at that calamity level, just remember to change the orbs. C8 is when it is worth doing 5 times per week (using tag characters). So try to get to 330ap to do them (DP barely matters, almost all stacks one shot you)
Hey, sorry probably for the weird question, but why would you use Tag characters? As far as I know the 5 weeklies are family gated. Or are you picking a specific tag character based on the boss you're fighting to have advantage?
The tag is to do C8/C9/C10 level 5 times, you can only get one reward per boss and per character, so to do 5 bosses per week you use tag characters. Sangoon and other exists but I only do golden pig cuz i already mastered it.
Bamboo & Bari are very easy, Bari teleports around a lot but isn't really a problem, Bamboo just has a bunch of ads around during the boss fight which can be a tad annoying at times but shouldn't cause you any real issues.
Ignore loml bosses before you reach c8 territory (330 if I remember correctly). Then you do pig and sangoon c8 (2 times if you have tag). They are pretty easy when you get used to them. Some say sangoon easier, some pig, but I'd say it depends on you mostly. Then you unlock gumiho (335 I think) and you start doing her as well (total of 5 bosses per week so 2+2+1). No idea about gumiho, never done her. At 360 you do 2 bamboo 2 changui and 1 c10 of your choice basically. Bamboo and changui are easier than all of them, but they can one shot you randomly, if you just go ham.
There's something that is not very obvious, but IMO critical: PvE iFrames. Normally the "invincible" skills have cooldown, but most (all?) classes should have the variant with invincible/iFrame working during cooldown if used against PvE.
Spamming it can get you through most of the hard hitting attacks if your class allows it to be spammed.
The descryptions in BDO are better now, and in this case straightforwad.
1. If there's a status in the skill it should work always, unless
2. unless it's explicitly stated that "nullified during cooldown"
There are several issues, tho:
- There might be desync meaning server doesn't register skills correctly, and sees "gap" during which Bosse's CC /damage might go through.
- Some skills have visible gaps between them. From what I've seen on Maegu I can spam skills without gaps, but I'm not Maegu main so idk.
- There are bugs and weird mechanics sometimes, so wouldn't be surprised if it was the case.
This is also why I hate BDO's bosses. The implementation is lazy, mechanics are bad and inconsistend, and on top of that there are bugs, desyncs and hidden mechanics. That said, we work with what we have and do best we can.
Okay thank you very much for the answers, I will try again when Im home…
But same for me, i usually dont have any problem with bosses or mechanics in other games but BDO is super different. Everything seems desynced and all those different colored aoe‘s have no consistency in which you are suppossws to stand in in order to get a buff or whatever and which ones to avoid
Also don't forget every class has a basic "evasion" skill that everyone usually locks ASAP, but that is a spammable PvE iframe as well. You could try unlocking that and using it if you can't get your class's "proper" iframe to work.
(Genuine question, I'm stalling doing anything higher than lvl 6 atm because I grew too fast in my GS and my skill still demands I act as a serendia elvia player. I really love doing hard blackshrine with my guild and all Elvia (I guess "normal" now) dungeons.
Your own AP doesn't matter until you unlock c8-10. Up to c7 uses just the light orbs pretty much, essentially equalized content that ignores your gear
And how much AP do you need for C8+?
C8:
Pig King and Sangoon - 330 AP
Gumiho - 345 AP
Bamboo and Apex - 360 AP
C9-10 (they are the same AP reqs):
Pig king and Sangoon - 350 AP
Gumiho - 355 AP
Bamboo and Apex - 380 AP (or 375, not sure)
Depends on the boss, you can check the in game UI

apex is easier tbh
You unlock c8 pig and sagoon at 330ap.
I’ve only done these up to C7 so idk about C8+
In no particular order, Bamboo Legion, Sangoon, Golden Pig King, Songakshi, and Apex Changui are the 5 easiest in my opinion.

Didn't know that... thank you!
Bamboo, pig and bari very easy. But reward below C8 really not worth you time. C7 even harder than C8, so try to get 330-340AP asap for worthy reward.
Sangoon is very telegraphed.
Bamboo is just a beefy mob where you dodge green attacks and you can take your time.
Bamboo & Bari are very easy, Bari teleports around a lot but isn't really a problem, Bamboo just has a bunch of ads around during the boss fight which can be a tad annoying at times but shouldn't cause you any real issues.

Try C7 but make sure to have all light orbs and that you put them in the correct aura (each boss has one it is weak to). Sangoon is easiest imo.

What would that be on maegu tho?

Spirit Step has invincible during whole skill for PvE. Stamina will go out eventually, but that's part of the "challenge" that PA designed...
In case you wonder: yes, you spam it left and right during whole boss attack and pray there's no desync. That's it.
But are you sure that the invincible part is still there when its on cd? I swear I am always just dying

Why do 5?
Cant you do 3/2 with a tag?

Not answer to the question but, I’m a new player what is this and how do I do it?
you need to do the LOML quest line to unlock
