Buccaneer

Am I the only one who doesnt have problems in root abyss?

Recently I've had a few guild RA runs and I noticed that when I invite other buccs, they die significantly more than me (mostly in queen / vellum). Normally I die once maybe once maybe twice on a vellum run (even with that dreaded graphical glitch) whereas my bucc party members usually go all 5 lives. Do you guys have the same problem?

Queen is hard when it comes to HP, But it all depends on the player and how he heals himself. I had troubles with Queen too but once you learn how to heal right in time [or have auto hp in right %], you won't have any problems.
As for Vellum, I hate that stupid bug. Today, I was soloing vellum and soloed like 23 of it's HP pretty quick. Then suddenly the bug appeared, I died. I respwned, and vellum was exactly shooting his 1ko fire balls. I died, again. It's really unfair. And then, When he was poisoning, he went away, and the poison is still around. Made my hp -1400 and that one hit of vellum killed me. Respwned again, and WOW, the shooting balls again. And the 5th death, I was like yay its about to die, then suddenly the big yellow circle bug again. Man. T_T

i find its pretty hard to buccs facing bosses like queen or vellum. because...

at queen, since buccs are melee attackers, they are exposed to suffer the effect's of queen's claw. the face that blind you dont let you know where she stands and to where
she's going to fire her breath wich deals 1ko. i die mostly for this reason.

at vellum. due to the auscence of flash jump. buccs are not faster than vellum to run away before he get's out of the ground. in consequence, buccs get throwed away
to left / right very far, and if your luck is bad. vellum will start to throw it 1ko firebreath which deals 1ko.

its my theory. even i'm not a bucc and my survival rate as a marksman is pretty high than you guys. its my thought's

discuss.

I dont die at vellum, maybe once in a while. Its pretty easy to avoid vellum, jut follow is ring and step back a little so he wont hit you when he pops out. For the queen, I die during the mirror thing. When she does her 1 hit ko move, i just stick close to her.

Im used to it just check out the animation for the 1 hit ko move and u'll be fine. Only problem u might get is vellum glitch where he attack the opposite side of the glowing ring. Use corkscrew to or ssk to avoid the queen att that darkens ur screen so u can see when she gonna do the one purple flame move

Since all the bucc above me ^^^ have godly buccskills and never die I'll just be honest instead:
''Queen turns off the light and I stop attacking and just observe her incase she turns purple and does her devastating attack. Vellum on the other hand has a lot of HP which makes it hard for me to do dmg. Everytime he signs the spot where he appears I run out of it, which gives me the chance to attack 1 time. When he does his firebreath attack I can attack him several times. When he dives I use dash/jumping and hope I won't get hit.''
Me being main attacker at queen is possible, but Vellum is such a pain so most of the time I team up with some AB guy with crazy dmg.

Yea.. I die a lot at Vellum

I never die in queen, vellum isn't a problem. Those buccs in your party simply don't know how to avoid things, control their buccs, or both. I solo abyss daily with a buddy just tagging along for the runes.

I swear people die too easily at Vellum. I just dash and spiral my way out of everything and live.

I usually die in Vellum because I lag
When he does that dive attack i tend to lag, that or I'm stuck in the middle and, due to lack of mobility, don't make it out in time.

i actually have no problem on vellum his pattern is easy to learn, queen i just started fighting so getting used to her, in all i dont like the RA bosses to begin with >.<

Yea i have that problem as well. I had to solo 2/3rds of a vellum run because everyone died. The problem isn't that the buccs are bad, its that not a lot of people know how to efficiently play to a character's mobility. Bosses have become all about sitting with stance and holding down a button, that when you have to fight a boss that moves and has patterns people get seriously messed up.
