Hey all, Just a quick question to any Pallies who train on BF, or have experience with BF. So I spent the last level at 0% killing a couple BFs, and I still can't seem to get it right, and would like to inquire about your methods. =P Mainly, is it possible to spam Blast once you've pinned the thing in the corner? I find that my second Blast always misses, and I've tried standing at various distances from it. I either miss entirely, alternate between one blast and one miss, or end up hugging him for being too close. And he's not very cuddly at all. )= I'm mainly a (4) speed sword user, but I've tried almost everything at my disposal as well. Thanks for any replies.

When you say misses, do you mean that the sword animation frames don't collide with bigfoot and seems like you're slashing air?

I'm not sure. There's a video of a Hero being able to spam Brandish without missing though, so just wondering if I'm doing something wrong here, or blast may be different that brandish? I doubt it, though, I'm sure there are paladins here that can absolutely demolish BF in a short amount of time, so I'm guessing that they can't be missing like I am.

Well, just try delaying your attack by a little. Perhaps the speed of your sword is too fast that Bigfoot is still in it's invincibility frames as you're hitting the second slash. You know like hitting plants or boxes, you have to wait a little before hitting it again otherwise it won't collide. If you have booster on, try fighting it with booster off, maybe that might make a difference. You'll hit slower but at least all your attacks will actually land.

But like I've said, I've tried all types of swords, with and without booster and it's not working for me. =/

Nahs, you can go as long as you have the HP. Which is probably 140ish or so, unwashed. BF's not hard out all, he just does massive touch damage. =T

Yep. Paladins suck at bigfoot. Maybe when we get fixed range blast it'll be a little better.

A Hero friend of mine who would solo BF generally would do so with a Sunrise w/o booster on -- doing so slowed his attacks up enough to connect AFTER the KB invincibility frames. I would assume likewise would work for Blast -- although you still do need to keep track of the attack limiter (and be ready to Rush BF back into the corner).
