hard gollux is pretty hard for a bam but its pretty simple after a while just tp down and genesis when mobs are close to the center and fb the face. kill abdomen ofc also if u low on hp make sure to use the drain so u dont get 1shot from the seduce. but tbh gollux as a bam is all control so all u gotta do is practice practice practice

I'll give it another shot in the morning, thank you for the tips though.[/quote]

When gollux attacks you with his hand, make sure you hold the down arrow key tight until the hand is gone(or you can quickly teleport downwards or use the portal to go down to avoid the hand and survive) and resume attacking or go to the ground level to clear mobs. However, when gollux's eyes glow red and nothing happens, it means that gollux has used its reverse bomb (so make sure to always stay out of range on the top platform before he cast any spells), after he uses this you're free to head down and clear mobs. When gollux gather electricity around his eyes, wait until its animation is over, then head downwards and clear mobs and get back up as fast as possible. If Gollux do however, gather electricity around his eyes during the time you're at the ground platform, teleport up to the top platform as fast as possible to avoid instant death, and again, after the electricity animation is over you can head back down to clear mobs or resume attacking if the mobs are not close enough to enter gollux. Repeat this until you've mastered your controls and timings to execute perfect/no-death runs.

However, I've heard some arguments about clearing one of its arms instead of the abdomen, helps reducing the occasion of gollux using its hand attack on you during phase 2. So if you're really having trouble with the arm, feel free to test this and see if it really does work, but keep in mind you have to be really cautious during the phase 1 jaw, as it can kill you with its breathe in 1 cast.

[quote=taintedzero]1. If you've got autopot, I'd suggest keeping it off for Gollux and only pot when you're on the brink of death.
2. Get thru that portal after killing jaws and step to the left asap to avoid the reverse bomb (yellow-orangish attack that leads to 90% damage)
3. Stay on the portal and as far away from eyes that your attacks can reach. If you're too close to the eyes, he can hit you with reverse bomb.
4. As soon as he uses ohko fist, tele down via skill or the portal and use the long fist animation to clear any of the the incoming mobs using Dark Chains. You have a good 5 seconds before he launches another attack, so try and kill whatever's close before returning back up.
5. Rinse and repeat.[/quote]
