So here's a few things I've noticed fighting the boss. Grouping up together doesn't work. The boss kills you faster than you kill him, and if everyone is together then you're screwed if the boss gets to your group. Plus the boss can take away everyone's ammo. Body block strategies don't work. It slows down the boss a little, but it also blocks a lot of the shots from behind the wall. Long range weapons seem more effective. Total damage done before death is more important than DPS, and if you try to use an AK up close you'll probably die before you can do much. I haven't had a chance to test the bulk cannon yet. Dolls is the map I've seen the best results on. It lets players spread out while keeping a line of fire on the boss. When the boss tries to go for a player they'll still get shot from players on the other side of the map. If the boss is close to you and you know you're about to die, it's better to run away than to spend your last minutes shooting. If the boss spends more time chasing you, then other players sniping from far away get more time to shoot freely, and they'll do more damage than you will.
I’ve learned this really isn’t possible on vanilla unless you’re on dolls, and even then our best attempt last night got jabba to 50%. I think the only nilla kill happened because jabba hadn’t figured out a good way to navigate the top shelf area yet. he has now.
cheating and tping half of the server to a hard-to-reach area IE the tall towers on rooftops so they can shoot reaper without much worry
Throw everything in the trash, cause I got what works on both modded and vanilla. Go to the dolls or better yet to 67th way and just go behind the doll house / vents behind tester on 67h or any cramped claustrophobic area, the reapers cannot fit into tight spaces that you can. you can deal as much damage as you want and be totally safe from them. Spoiler: Boring as heck no fun allowed strat Spoiler: Seriously, don't click this unless you absolutely want that skin Spoiler: You will bore the heck out of everyone on the server Spoiler: Residentsleeper Since hiding is allowed, you can protect yourself from being killed through the walls by going holstered so any limbs aren't poking out through the wall, contrary to what it may seem to be the purpose of the round, just time out the reapers if you're the last one alive. cause if they're near you they'll just area of effect damage you when you get their health low enough. first hand experience seen below, didn't know about the aoe damage attack they had and didn't think to time out until afterwards. Also avoid getting teleported by badmins. Spoiler: Proof, 8327 damage https://medal.tv/clips/35675533/d1337oYulK3c
See, that would work except any time the timer got low last night jabba and/or an admin would tp whoever was left (which to be fair I don’t disagree with, it’s a lame strat)
its simple just be in spec at midnight when server wont be full and let the others do it for you like I did
New strategy. Have jabba make the next round a fun round, have him go afk, end the first round asap and then merk him during the boss fight while hes afk taking a shit and eating kids candy
Communication is Key.Make sure to communicate and inform each other of the boss's status, location and if you need help but make sure that the boss doesn't use this to his advantage. When fighting against the boss assume he will be on the offensive and create some ground between you and him, always try to achieve the higher ground if possible and evade any possible attacks. If it's in a cramped map: - 5+ Frontal Defense using P90's and Huge's to push back the enemy. - 5+ Using snipers in the back as headshot damage dealers - 5+ using Ak and famas's behind the defense, Rest can either M16 for its ammo efficiency or Famas for its great fire rate, also if the detective gets credits then he should get the special weapon because it will disorient the boss and give us precious time to shoot him down, try to funnel him, and lock him by using a incend and discombob to spread it out which will make them hesitate giving the innocents more time to shoot to kill. If it's in an open area have several groups consisting of 2 people, 1 sniper, and 1 guard wielding a weapon of choice (preferably a p90 or AK), with a central shooting group consisting of 7people with high DPS weapons being guarded by a separate group of snipers. each sniper should have a smoke grenade to disguise their location and allow for an easy escape and if the boss were to run after em then their guard will attempt to gun him down while giving the sniper time to escape and evaluate his situation. Remember to use the map to your advantage and any of its gimmicks as it can be the difference between a win or an L, also remember to have fun!
I today got both Unholy Spear and Goresplatter, we beat a solo angel on Dolls by simply spreading out while giving everyone positions to shoot the angel at all times combo the HK and barret dealing the most damage just takes a round to learn first. Beat Grimwon on that fog map by staying split up but within good range, typically between the gas station tower and barn gives everyone good sightline with a good spread and then just combo barret and HK for high damage output being spread between Grimwon and the two Angels
