Range Question Regarding Angelic Busters

Hello,

I'm kind of new to this Angelic Buster thing but I really do enjoy the class even though I main a Zero. I felt like I would be satisfied with my Angelic Buster if I could solo Hard Gollux so I was just curious as to how much range would be needed to at least solo Hard Gollux. I know that's kind of a broad question since boss damage doesn't really play a role in your range, but if a guesstimate can be given that would be much appreciated.
Also I would like to know how much range would be needed to hit around 10-15mil per line with Celestial Roar on normal mobs.
Thank you for your time reading and giving any answers to my questions in advance.

Sincerely,
Jace

[quote=cheesemochi]About 10 minutes for Hard Gollux Head with ~420k / Boss 128%/ PDR 72% for me. I usually go with two shoulders alive.

And I hit 10~15m on regular mobs with Roar [/quote]

Once you know what spot to stand in it really isn't that hard to throw the orbs for a few minutes. Personally, I am terrible at dodging the hands because I can't seem to figure out where the hit boxes are and if you are in the downward swing of throwing orbs it is nearly impossible to dodge a hand in time (in my own experience).

I find that strategy unreliable primarily because if you mess up on distance, the seduce move hits you.
I kill the abs, and hug the middle. This way the Seekers go to the head as well as to the side mobs.
If you get hit by the breath, just leave the map, heal back to full hp and re-enter.
This way prevents you from being ohko'd unless you walk into the arm.

Kill right shoulder (his left, your right) then stand on the side of the portal and chuck orbs at him, only jump towards middle to kill the mobs then get back near the portal

[quote=Koshimizu]I'm solo'd Hard Gollux in roughly 6 mins with 1m range and 200% boss.
However, this was before the 100% recharge rate, other minor AB buffs and actual knowledge of the boss, so it should take a bit less time and range now.
10-15m per line on Roar is really easy to do, I was able to ohko Ancient Mixed Golems before the map nerf with about 1m buffed range.
That would equate to about 20m per line or so.[/quote]

How exactly does an AB Hard Gollux? What part do you kill, one of the shoulders? I keep dying due to lag, so I haven't solo'd hard yet.
