i am bad with bad range

Hi I was wondering how much %PDR and % boss i should have? I currently have 274% boss and 90% PDR. I feel like i need more PDR but was told that DrKs dont really need that much due to gungnir already having 30%PDR. Also what are the times you are able to get with DrK on the dojo board cause im capping 100% of the time but my time is still roughly 6-6:10 and im wondering if im doing something wrong or its just because i live in new zealand(Luls) and lastly what range is required to solo hellux/CRA bosses/hard magnus, im currently at 1.8m buffed w/o hypers and echo

@aznstyles: still tho that means like 25m easy on all bosses but vellum, and you have the equivalent of 93% pdr so youd still be hitting what like 20mill on vellum? so not quite there for vellum but everything else should be not much trouble

@Daringwaffle Oh my bad, i guess i didnt make it very clear. I only cap 100% in dojo luls and I got uhh 274% boss so i guess thats why im capping

if you cap 100% you should be able to easily handle all 4 chaos bosses, just a matter of control on vellum.
magnus is doable, hellux might be close.

im more impressed that you cap with 1.8m on dojo, thats nuts man

Wait do MPE potions do anything if you dont have dSI or +1 as from IA?

Work on your range. You want well over 2m buffed to comfortably solo CRA/Hellux. Also, if you're capping on dojo with a MPE green potion and dSI, you should easily be able to get a 5:2X time (unless you have latency issues, which you cant really do anything about).

@Itachi9821 I already wait for my CDs to reset during rest stages so i can get the double sacrifice spam, buff duration and DSI looks like the next things i need to achieve

I'm getting 5:45 averages, with 5:29 as my best record. Here's what I do usually... I have a magnificent magnus that helps out a bit. If you don't have one, don't worry about it. You should aim for as much buff duration from IA and like mechanics card. This increases sacrifice time for the final bosses in the later stages. When youre going into the last part, just wait in the resting part until you can get beholder off for a few seconds so you basically have an extra charge for sacrifice when the first one runs out. Getting DSI literally cut off 12 seconds ish off my best time. Good luck and message me if you need anything.

[quote=GakiNoTsukai]@aznstyles: I'm not too proficient in drk hps, but for cvell assuming you're hitting cap If you land about 12-16 hits per popup you should make it. I mean if you calculate it out you're given 15 min to deal 200bil damage, and he likes to hide about 10% of that time so you're really given about 13.5min to deal 200bil. Pretty much need to be spot on with movement, go in at 0% expect to fail first 10 attempts and get a feel for the attack patterns.[/quote]

Looks like im awhile off from soloing CVel then LOL guess practise till i find people to kill w/ me is good

@GakiNoTsukai I havent tried to solo those bosses so I guess i should try starting, I was just wondering if i was going to be wasting my time or not. I know my character control is quite bad(Sok at von bon but am okay at vellum)

If dojo bosses are alive for a second or two after your skill animation ends then there's probably nothing you can do(lag). If you're at that range and can't do those bosses, reconsider focusing on movement rather than all out attack. Then begin to balance the two. What's the point of having that high of range if you're spending 50% of the time floating around as a ghost.

@Flashyxx Not sarcastic at all, Ive only recently came back to playing
@Itachi9821 So I should get SI pot on my SE nebbed gloves and 50% buff duration on IA? Or try for both +1AS n %Buff duration for IA

You need some attack speed. Try buff duration to make your sacrifice last longer too! Try getting decent SI and the not green pot

You got enough.. I guess, it just comes down to "skill" and how you control your character.
