Solo Normal Magnus Tt

Hi hi BMs fellow,
I've been struggling for ages when I tried to solo Normal Magnus. I could manage to damage him but when he had 25%HP left, things went crazy. He is to fast to adjust Platter directions, chasing him with Hurricane is a death wish with falling balls from above, Arrow Stream is too slow and lame damage. Either I got time ran out or my live counts ran out.
Hope you guys can give me some tips/strategies to deal with that part. I'm solo because my guild is dead and friend-list is empty
Thank you in advances.

[quote=Dexen]Definitely doable with 1m. I have 1.2 now and it only takes a few minutes. I'll remake a video once I log and send it your way once it uploads. The key is lock drain arrows so you can tank green balls while staying inside his hit zone. Avoid everything else. Also, hookshot is not reliable at all.[/quote]
Thank you, I will keep that in mind. Feel much encouragements and please show us your video when you are done, sir.

When hes using his lightning rush you can use hookshot and cancel the rush but you'll still take damage from it but you shouldn't be pushed. Probably stop trying to set up turret properly and just leave it at default somewhere around the middle area of the arena.

[quote=ProHealer]Cancel your hurricane instead of trying to walk past the ball, sometimes you need to FJ or hookshot to get out of the way in time. Watch a little higher on your screen so you can react quicker, watch some youtube vids? It's all about practice you will eventually get the hang of it. There are times in magnus when you just get some bad luck and death is inevitable[/quote]
Thank you, sounds like I need more practice and mechanic to handle those dropping balls. I totally forgot HookShot until you said so lol.
[quote=Dexen][url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9KkiqxSBqk]Hope this helps[/url]. Taken pre-Star, but the strategy stays the same for me. Although I can do it much faster now with 1.2m.[/quote]
Nice vid actually, I love the way you jump, deploy Platter and jump again. Will try your strategy when the server is back up, gonna take few times but looks do-able. My range is 1m right now, so I might have a chance. Thank you for the vid.

The best magnus death = when you respawn and you just so happen to be near one of those green poison clouds and insta die from a falling meteor/ his yellow lasers because you can't move </3
