Normal Mag Tips?

So I've got 500k ranged buff, with 120% BOSS, 40% CRIT, and 65% IED and I can't seem to kill Normal Mag. I try to dodge all the floating balls but then i get gassed and I can't move. Not to mention that when I die it takes like 10 years to rebuff up everything again I even buy buff freezers. Am I just to weak? Any tips on how to kill him? Maybe dodge more, but that's a given.

At the last part of Magnus you should slow down your pace of attack and wait for him to cast.
Mainly need to watch out for his blue kb attack

Job change to drk and abuse final pact to win

jk, tho that's what i did when my drk had a 400k range,
a lot easier with 800k now but that aside
how many magnus runs have you done? just want to gauge your experience with him in general

It's really important not to waste time buffing skills that aren't vital. For a Demon Avenger, you really should have at least booster and Overwhelming Power while sneaking low delay buffs when possible. If you can find safe gaps, you can spend a little time buffing the other skills; just note that heavy delay buffs (Diabolic Recovery, Ward Evil, etc) will put you at a heavy risk. If you're ever low on health, you can just put some distance away from Magnus and use Bat Swarm until you're good to go again.

Also note that if you have time to spare but your life count is dropping faster, you can always wait for your bind's cooldown to finish before reviving.

Well the best thing u got agaisnt magnus is ur bind, use it as much as u can, then try to attack with ur nether shield all the time and use execution within the CD, use nether slice for the ignore defense debuff, then for the gas try to keep magnus in the middle of the map so u wont die from the gas on the corners, then try to get as many buff freezers u can get, then if u run out of buff freezers try to stay in the left corner and buff there(thats the safest place i can think), ur range and IED are ok, then u can get a easily more %critical and %boss damage for an easier run and maybe if gain more lvl in ur char u could do it better with all ur hyper skills and with more lvl than magnus. My DA isnt strong enough to kill magnus but i think thats all u should do.

[quote=DLiu456]If the character you're trying to do Magnus on is that Hero your main character is currently, buffing shouldn't be a problem. Combo Attack and Enrage have almost no delay whatsoever and honestly, after you die, just use booster. Rage and Maple Warrior aren't as important as booster. Also, with that range and boss dmg %, you should be able to kill Magnus as long as you stay as far away as possible from him when his blue zone is large because his spin can be dangerous. When his zone gets smaller, you can use rush to counteract his spin's knockback but you will still be stunned for a bit so be wary when you do that.[/quote]

Lol this is in the demon avenger forum

OT: Practice is all we can tell you. Keep magnus in the middle, and remember, dodging rocks ALWAYS comes before attacking him. If you need to stop attacking to dodge rocks, go ahead. You can't do damage to him if you're dead.

Keep magnus in the middle as well. It's best to limit yourself to the area where there's no gas. Once youre gassed youre basically dead
