dojo papulatus

hey guys, so whenever i dojo, papulatus is always a stressful stage due to the fact that he can take away all your buffs. he's taken away my buffs most of the time before, so now i usually just attack from far left if he spawns near the portal to avoid it. is there any way to prevent him from taking away my buffs so that i can stay near the dojo portal/

what are some strategies you guys use to prevent this/

@DarkOdor: I use RF, and during the two runs I've gone on I haven't been debuffed once.
I also only hit 20m on RF, so I kill pap a lot slower than you.
When I played my NL and NW I also never got debuffed as long as I killed him before his first "hibernation".

Do you have any sort of bind/monster stun skill?
As a zero, I use my ultimate as soon as pap spawns which prevents him from attacking. This gives me about 3-4 seconds to finish him off before he can use de-buff. I only have 1 true buff that can be debuffed, so not so much an issue for me, but still.

[quote=iEatNoobz]If you cap on RF and can't kill him before he debuffs, you're doing it wrong.
If you keep your distance and kill him in under 5 seconds you should never get debuffed.[/quote]
time isn't an important factor, distance is. i'm sure anyone can get debuffed by him so i'll try to raise resistance and/or come up with an alternative way of maintaining distance. i might try using arrow blaster for pap instead.

He still debuffs? I remember back when you were able to bring a party into dojo. The debuffs and 1/1 were insta kills back then.

I just kill him fast enough before he can do anything. But, just try to keep a far distance away from him. I don't think there's any other way.
