Went at level 113 solo'd at 31 minutes, then 34 minutes with a whole lot of bad luck at level 115.
Ended up level 116 after the whole ordeal. Still no helmet. D:[/quote]

So you gained 3 levels?

Use a spider familiar before you summon.

@taterbutt thanks man. I think I'm gonna push to 125 then go for a solo.

no no zaks fine ^^ ...take all cures bro! a must

is zakum still glitched cuz i heard you couldn't enter it or something o.o

What I do. (Being 152 Xenon) is i beam dance the arms. (If you cant hit top right arm then use mecha purge: bombard (laser) to hit the top two arms from the right side) Then use mecha purge: snipe for the body. Keep energy at 20 since you don't have the level 150 hyper for now it's not worth it to use OOparts due to you lose damage to gain damage. You can use the avoidability skill if you are getting hit way too often. I kill it in 1m 45 seconds. Poor 8 armed freak

I kill the arms with mech purge: bombardment...bottom left 2 arms then top left two then switch to the right side standing on the second platform while using mech purge: bombardment and using mech purge: snipe on any single arm left. Then I use top teleported to switch to left side and jump to the bottom. With 20 energy I use ooparts and terms and conditions together then use mech purge snipe boss til it dies rebuffing when it casts defense up. Using emergency energy at 10+ for 20 energy then use ooparts again. I kill it in about 9 minutes with bad gear.

@KilometerSlayer: Depending on funding anywhere from 20 minutes to 30 minutes I think.

If you can get about 50 all cures, you'll be fine. Just make sure to use Hybrid defense to dodge the 1/1's if you don't want to waste time potting... OOPart will definitely help by alot, I recommend maxing OOPart if you can after maxing Xenon mastery and Offensive matrix. You might just take a while killing with your current range.

The best way is as follows for lower levels.
IF you can hit the bottom left arms from the far left corner stand there no closer and wail on them untill the second to lowest left dies (this arms casts all the debuffs and can't hit you if you are far bottom left).

After that go up the rope on left and kill the top 2 left then top 2 right arms (top ight is most annoying as it knocks you off platform).
kill bottom remaining arms.

Standing to the left of zakum burn down his bodies from the floor (pretty straightforward) You'll need the all cures at this point.

Tips and tricks: NEVER touch his bodies unless you have atleast 16-20k health, 3rd body hits for a consistent 6-10k touch ( hence why you stand to the left) and use any available % damage reducers to weaken 1/1.

Bring 50-200 all cures. start with around 150 then reduce based on what you use.

Edit: one of my first recorded solos for refference

all cures and power elixirs/ginger ales are all you need, you could bring a 1.5 coupon for the exp too (iirc zak gives lots of exp at your lv)
use hybrid defense a lot, it will dodge the 1/1 for you, other than the 1/1, just hold your button and watch as you swiftly murdering him

You'll be fine to solo it. Bring around 100 all cures to be safe for when there is a 1/1. You'll be perfectly fine to solo it. No real strategy, other than have power elixers for 1/1's.

@ChrisChrisChris Thanks man, i'll probably push to 120/125 then. How long do you think it would take me then?

Xenon's are kinda overpowered, so you could honestly solo now if you'd like. May take like 30-40 minutes however due to not having all the buffs and whatnot. Ooparts is very helpful, as boss damage and total damage % is extremely good. Zakum is a rather easy boss to take down though now. If I'm not mistaken, you can simply stand in the middle and beamdance the crap out of the arms/bodies. I'd wait till maybe 120-125 if you could, should be a bit easier.
