This is a effective way to kill Bf if u not using hb mule to do so n probably the only map to avoid 1hitKO, but I think it be more effective to bf if u pin him in twisted path or forgotten path with a slow PA, cuz they have a better chance to KB n pin than a faster PA that moves to fast. At times bf would break free cuz of this, n I can kill bf around 9-11mins atm. I haven't killed a bf in a while now, so I need to go check n see how fast I can kill now o-o but good guide man definitely will take some tips from this when I'm finish hp washing =]

This is my 2nd BF killed with my Aran. Killed around 10 on my Drk though so I have a general gist of how BF works and times best to go find and kill one. Still not confident on appleing yet. I would have to wait till I can take a hit on my Aran with 1 hit with HB. Atm I can tank BF at a 60% chance, by 130 I should be able to tank a hit and apple it with ease and reduce my kill time from 30mins to at least 15mins.

[/quote] If you're going to kill bigfoot only at forgotten path, i recommend that you don't even try to tank a hit. Keep the bigfoot one platform only, and keep attacking it. Try to get the rhythm of bigfoots movements and magic attacks so you can effectively rebuff and not run away.

How would I be able to pin the Bigfoot? I know that the 2nd hit of my OS should hit then I charge. But I don't think I am able to keep doing that because the Bigfoot would eventually kill me before it's fully pinned. Even if I was able to pin it, how would I kill Bigfoot without getting hit?

[/quote] After final charge, back off a bit so that there's a reasonable distance After you pin it, then it should just be facing towards the wall, and it only unpins if you don't attack for, what, 2-3 seconds?

[quote] cHiNcHiLLa : How would I pin it? o_o Bigfoot is so hard You make it sound so easy. F5 [/quote] as you already know the second hit on overswing>final charge allows you to "rush" it. usually bigfoot will use its magic attack, so you wouldn't have to worry about it running into you. If it doesn't use its magic attack, you combat step jump away from it. then repeat overswing>overswing (second one hits)>final charge, until you get it to the wall. Then keep attacking and like after every 3 overswings, back up.

I remember when the lolipop wasn't part of BFs hitbox. That lolipop has caused me quite a few deaths. x_x Very nice guide though.

WOOOOOOOTT I JUST KILLED BIGFOOT! Total of 30 minutes because a HH spawned. LOLOL I died once from just Bigfoot itself because key got stuck. Would have 20-25 min solo if there weren't any distractions. It even dropped a toe! I'm so happy! Gonna upload a pic later. EDIT: It was at Forgotten Path. I just died trying to pin another Bigfoot. LOLOL http://img341.imageshack.us/img341/6559/maple0043.jpg I LOVE YOU GUYS ! I ALWAYS WANTED TO KILL BIGFOOT AND I FINALLY DID IT ! Never thought I'd do it on my Aran though, :O

Bigfoot training isn't a good idea for an Aran, is it? I die at least once a Bigfoot D: Back to 9%... Oh well, it was reeeaally fun killing Bigfoots today! :D

Great way to start a x4 training sesh though. Chain BFing is only recommended when you have a 100% rate of not dying or have a unlimited supply of safety charms.
