Db Gollux Tactics
So fellow DBs, what are some tactics that you have for gollux (especially for the eyes) since we suck majorly at gollux? I have a 800k range and 272% boss and I am struggling on the eyes on hard gollux because of how short our range is on Phantom Blow.

I tried hard mode for the first time yesterday and it was painful. Some skill that hits most of the map kills me in one hit while I was getting rid of the summons.
I asura the eyes/forehead. Though I die a lot, and this is on easy

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not
His English is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooo good
@crayolamix no worries, good luck and yup, if you're in Dark Sight when the bomb skill explodes you won't take any damage, same deal with the bomb skill at Cygnus.
[quote=crayolamix]Thanks for all the tips, this should be useful and ill try again tomorrow
The thing that kills me for (usually) all 5 of my death counts are the reverse controls combined with the bomb skill, really messes me up.[/quote]
i hear if you dark sight the reverse skill wont kill you.
[quote=OmgItsMazz]If you're soloing: jaw is easy, just don't let him face you while he's attacking, once you're at the eyes hide in the far left corner, walk slightly forward until he slams his fist into the ground below you then tornado spin back into the corner, after the fist is gone you're safe to attack for ~12-15 seconds or so. Jump attack with Phantom Blow, but watch out for the reverse controls/bomb skill (orange flames around your character), if he hits you with that, TSpin back into the corner and hide in Dark Sight until the bomb explodes then resume attacking.
Jump down off the left side and Final Cut back into the middle, go back up through the portal in the middle and TSpin into the left corner when you need to recast FC (takes maybe 2/3 seconds in total?), and if you have no one to help you clear the summons, every 9-10 seconds jump down from the platform immediately after Gollux uses an attack, Flying Assaulter to kill any mobs close to the portal, go back up through it and then do the same thing on the other side. You can alternate between using the left/right corners as safe spots if it takes you a while to kill.
Alternatively party with a Luminous and you won't have to worry about the summons at all but that's more for Hell mode, Hard mode isn't too difficult to solo once you get the hang of it. Thankfully, after the DB revamp, Phantom Blow will have enough of a vertical range that we won't need to jump attack to hit the eyes.[/quote]

Tactic? easy, go party a luminous.
Don't have any friend? Too bad for you.
Wait at the corner so you won't get hit. Use Asura once every 90 seconds and hope you kill him before you die 5 times by the Death Counter.
