Full-time: The Strongest Sniper

Chapter 842 The Boss is a Summoner

Ultimately, although these monsters were slightly stronger than the elite monsters, they weren't bosses, and the current strength of the Happy team was enough to suppress them. The team immediately divided the work: Zhang Jiale dealt with one, and the others paired up to deal with one, thus keeping the summoned Yinshan bandit minions occupied.

Mo Fan and Baozi teamed up to deal with the sharpshooter. Although Mo Fan wasn't good at teamwork, Baozi could still cooperate with him even when it was just the two of them.

Mo Fan immediately started with a Flame Slash, drawing the marksman's aggro. Just as the marksman's aggro shifted to Mo Fan, Baozi had already flashed behind him, placing a brick directly on the back of the marksman's head, stunning him instantly.

Then Baozi activated Steel Bones and slapped himself to draw aggro. After all, compared to the cloth armor ninja with the weakest defense, Baozi, who is proficient in heavy armor and has activated Steel Bones to increase defense, is obviously more suitable to be the main tank.

After all, it was a two-on-one situation, so Mo Fan wasn't likely to make any mistakes. And Baozi, who was cooperating with Mo Fan, could hold off an elite monster, not to mention the other combinations of Happy.

The members of Team Happy each drew the aggro of their respective elite monsters and separated them, directly cutting off the possibility of these elite monsters cooperating with each other. Now, the members of Team Happy can each stand alone and act as the main tank to hold aggro on an elite monster.

"Very good, keep it up." Seeing that his teammates were in great form, Xiao Nai encouraged them to keep it up.

Soon, bandits were killed by the Happy team. Just as the bandits on Happy's side were killed, the boss that Xiao Nai's team attacked in a coordinated attack instantly disappeared in front of Xiao Nai and his team.

"Oh, this guy can teleport too," Xiao Nai said, somewhat surprised.

Just as Xiao Nai and his companions were about to give chase, the boss waved his hand, and a swordsman bandit identical to the one who had just died charged out.

"Damn, this guy is also a summoner. Teleportation plus summoner, could the designers of Glory be any more disgusting?" When Xiao Nai saw the boss summon another one, he knew that the boss also had the class of summoner.

These four bandits, A, B, C, and D, are his summoned beasts.

The main problem is that the Summoner class has limited attack and defense capabilities. Normally, they are relatively easy to defeat in close combat, but this bandit leader not only possesses excellent attack power but is also a Summoner who can teleport, making things much more troublesome.

Don't be fooled by the Summoner's complex controls; their combat capabilities are among the lowest of all mages. This makes the Summoner class particularly demanding, especially in terms of positioning. After all, the Summoner is a damage dealer—as long as they're alive, they deal damage, even without actively engaging. However, this high skill ceiling also means that very few professional players utilize the Summoner, resulting in the absence of an all-star level Summoner to date. Xiao Nai finds this build disgusting primarily because in the professional scene, it's practically a given that Summoners have Teleportation enchantments on their weapons. Even current top-tier players like Luo-level characters have Teleportation and Dragon's Roar enchantments on their weapons.

Because Luo Ji's current playstyle is unique, his individual skill is more important than his control over the summoned beasts. After all, if the boss's strength is too limited, then having minions around is meaningless. The opponent can easily focus on dealing with the minions. The core of Luo Ji's playstyle is to restrain the opponent. It's not necessarily about winning, but about keeping them under pressure. The summoned beasts can handle the damage output.

Teleportation, needless to say, allows you to leave the battlefield at any time when needed, making it convenient to coordinate with summoned beasts. The other skill, Dragon Breaker, has two uses: one is an extra movement skill for escaping, and the other is a powerful close-range skill for launching an attack.

This time, the designers of Honor of Kings directly drew inspiration from professional players, placing a teleportation skill directly onto the Summoner's boss. If it were a player-controlled character, teleportation wouldn't be a problem, since that class doesn't yet have a movement skill. However, player skills have cooldowns, so players can calculate cooldowns and predict whether the opponent will use teleportation. But as bosses, their skills don't have cooldowns, and dealing with a boss that can teleport infinitely is a real problem.

"Xiao Nai, hold the boss back and don't let him escape," Ye Xiu said. After all, the boss is retreating now, and only Xiao Nai can maintain a continuous threat to the boss and observe and interrupt the teleportation animation.

As Ye Xiu finished speaking, Xiao Nai's attack roared towards the boss. However, despite Xiao Nai's attacks, the boss skillfully dodged many of them. Clearly, its movement speed had increased after using teleportation, but this wasn't an effect of the teleportation skill itself; it was due to the boss's inherent mechanics. It's unclear whether this mechanic occurred after using teleportation or after the second summon.

"Old Ye, coordinate with my attack. Yifan, provide support." Xiao Nai said, noticing the boss's increased speed, as the boss was now actively dodging his attacks. Ultimately, the bullets fired by Glory's gunner classes don't have the true bullet velocity of CS or PUBG. They're slightly faster than Glory's throwables; different guns have different bullet speeds, but the differences are limited.

So even if Xiao Nai's aim is perfect and he anticipates the attack, the opponent can still dodge it. This is why Xiao Nai likes to unleash a barrage of bullets at once. The reason is simple: a larger attack range makes it harder for the opponent to dodge. And now, this level 75 boss can actively dodge attacks, which makes things much more troublesome.

After all, when fighting players, because the opponent's health is limited, even if the attacks are spread out, they can still cause effective damage. But the current opponent is a boss with a level 5 level suppression. Its attack power is already suppressed. If the attacks are spread out, the attack efficiency will be extremely low. Therefore, Xiao Nai had no choice but to call for support from Yi Fan and Ye Xiu.

It's not that Xiao Nai can't win, but rather that it's troublesome. In reality, with Xiao Nai and Ye Xiu's skills, as long as they can deal effective damage, all bosses are just a matter of time for them. But the problem is that Xiao Nai and Ye Xiu's mana bars are limited. Without skills, even they can't deal effective damage, since relying solely on basic attacks, their output isn't even as fast as the boss's automatic health regeneration.

Now that the four summoned bandits pose no threat to Team Happy, Xiao Nai and Ye Xiu naturally wouldn't be foolish enough to kill them themselves without calling for backup. (End of Chapter)
