Chapter 393: Wuming vs. Lafei! Chapter Final BOSS Battle Explanation, Civilian

Hello everyone, I am the new anchor Silmarillion, this time I will bring you the strategy for the final BOSS battle in this chapter.

Before making this video, I saw many people online saying that the boss Lafei is very difficult to fight and very lousy. To sum up, the main difficulties are that it often teleports and is difficult to lock, the clone mechanism plays tricks on people's mentality, and the big move has a full-screen aoe that directly clears half of the health.

In fact, those who have played the previous game know that Laffy's difficulty is just for beginners. Wanbao in the previous game is even more difficult to fight, because she not only has disgusting skills such as teleportation and clones, but also can stop and accelerate time.

Her time stop is against all rules, which means no matter how many buffs you stack, you will be frozen and hit. The speed up time is even worse, as it will continue to consume equipment durability and mana. If you can't kill it quickly within three minutes, you will be killed by her.

Moreover, in the previous game, Wanbao was not even a boss, but a controllable character that unlocked her own machine after being defeated. You can imagine how difficult her opponents were. The normal difficulty of the previous game can be played as a nightmare mode in this game, and there are also bug-like dung monsters such as Sister Blood Bull and Queen Mother Quantum. If this game is Monster Hunter Rise, then the previous game is the frontier. Yes, it is so exaggerated. (The frontier fairy Lafite who escaped)

(The Wanbao in the previous film was already tens of millions of years old at the beginning, and was basically fully developed. The Wanbao in this film is still just a child in front of her, and many of her skills have not been optimized. According to the setting, the longer she lives, the stronger she will be. When she becomes strong enough, she will upgrade to a higher dimension. Her final form is completely god-level. Her last thought restarts the universe and reshapes the world.)

So Rafi is actually a character from the previous game who was brought to this game to be the boss, which shows how lazy the production team was. Although there is also some sentimental factors, when Rafi was announced to appear in this game, many old players sighed, "We can beat her again with the new mechanism."

After the cutscene, the game officially begins.

At the beginning of the game, Rafi will stand there and talk trash like she is reciting poetry. She has been doing this since the last game. Be careful not to hit her at this time, as it will trigger her rage mechanism. She hates it most when others interrupt her when she is showing off.

Since we mentioned the "rage mechanism", let's briefly introduce the characteristics of the character Rafi, so that newbies who haven't played the previous game can understand the meaning of the terms that appear later.

First of all, Raffi can be roughly divided into two modes: normal and furious. Her normal state is mainly based on long-range attacks, and her main means of attack are finger guns and crows.

The finger cannon can be blocked by opening the shield or teleporting continuously when she raises her hand.

The Crow Swarm needs to release the charged attack. In the previous animation, Wuming demonstrated how to summon thunder to disperse the Crow Swarm, which was actually the production team hinting at how to deal with this bug skill. Many players complained that the Crow Swarm was difficult to deal with, which was entirely because they jumped the animation without thinking and did not understand the game well enough.

The biggest feature of this series of games is that you cannot output without thinking. Many monsters have specific mechanisms, and you can easily kill yourself by mindlessly stabbing.

In normal mode, Rafi will teleport away a second before being approached, and continue kiting in a new place. When she attacks, she will also trigger a special dialogue with Wuming, mainly talking about her understanding of "idols".

Wuming thinks that Lafei is just admiring the perfect idol he imagined, not Xiaoer. Lafei says that the person he admires is perfect. These two people were not on the same channel from the beginning...

When Rafi's health drops to two-thirds, he will start to "rage". In this state, Rafi's desire to attack will be stronger, and his attack method will change from long-range to melee. His attack frequency, movement speed, and damage will all increase significantly. Many novices are discouraged at this stage.

But if the old players have already understood Rafi's mechanism, there are countless ways to play tricks on her. Some old players even call Rafi in this state a "sandbag" because she is strong and can withstand beatings. Once you understand the logic of her moves, you can torture her in various ways.

Originally, the character of Xiao Er was very complete. His configuration and high understanding of the game enabled him to handle most of the bosses that appear. On this basis, "Wuming" was created by integrating the characteristics of Wan Bai, Gui Shao, and A Dao, becoming the character with the most skills and the most varied fighting styles in the history of the series.

He is also the most difficult character to control, with the most outrageous gap between his upper and lower limits. In the hands of old players, he is omnipotent, but in the hands of new players, he is abused by dogs.

If you have to compare him to his previous roles, he's like an enhanced version of "Knife"

In the previous game, Xiaodao had a huge difference in his upper and lower limits. He was a completely different character in the hands of different players. His skills such as Flash and Life and Death Boundary gave him the ability to kill top bosses. Some people used him to play tricks on Lafei and Wanbao, and some of his judgment mechanisms were perfectly inherited by Wuming (in fact, the production team was lazy again and optimized the combat systems of many previous characters and transplanted them to the new characters)

It can be said that the upper limit of the character Wuming is only the upper limit of the player, and his limitations are only the player's understanding of him.

First of all, Wuming comes with three styles to switch between, namely [Trickster], [Sword Master], and [Royal Guard]

Among them, [Trickster] (Xiaoer) focuses on high mobility and burst. The invincibility frame during teleportation is the strongest survival skill. It can even dodge the ultimate move that kills instantly. It can be said to be very cheating. And teleportation

Later, a variety of quick combos can be derived.

[Sword Saint] (Adao), as the name suggests, the skills of this style are mainly attack-oriented, and different weapons have different effects. It has the strongest melee ability under normal circumstances, and it is also a relatively easy-to-use style. The black flame attached to each attack can cause continuous damage.

[Royal Guard] (Wanbai) is mainly defensive. The golden light protecting the body can be deflected at the moment of enemy attack. After deflection, it can also accumulate rage. When the rage gauge reaches the highest, the output is very violent.

What? You ask where the Gunslinger style went? You can find it after you clear Lafite.

In addition, there are two initial weapons, the Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword and the Epsilon Great Sword, which can be switched. The Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword has five attribute changes, and the attack has its own lock tracking, which can automatically hit people without thinking, and can be controlled, defended, and attacked.

The upper limit of the "three reds" charging mechanism of the Epsilon Greatsword is also very high. This greatsword is set up so that the sword body will gradually turn red after being attacked. There are a total of three stages. When the power is charged to the highest, it can deal extremely high damage, but the red light will gradually weaken during the attack. Pay attention to the combination of offense and defense to maintain the efficiency of the red knife.

This three-red mechanism reminds me of Sister Nian's charged shield axe in the previous game, except that she charges it by beating people, and when it is fully charged, it can be super-released, and one super-release can cut off Wanbao's tail. Because that mechanism is too strong, Sister Nian's shield axe was nerfed in this game.

In addition, Wuming's core mechanism is [Giant Transformation]. He can switch between human and Ao forms freely, and can bounce back all attacks instantly after transformation. When attacked in the transformed state, health is not consumed, but the mana bar drops quickly. The production team considered the balance of the game and limited this state to 30 seconds, but this is enough for veterans to develop a lot of tricks, such as instant transformation followed by transformation to shake off Laffey's ultimate move, and repeated transformation to get invincible frames.

This game adds a new [Taunt] mechanism, which is very cool. It can trigger a random taunt when the enemy is beaten to stiffness or dizziness. I used it once. At that time, I used the nameless greatsword Wind Fire Wheel to break through the Raffi Crow Group and beat Raffi until she was drooling. She lay on the ground staring at you and drooling.

At this time, if Wuming stands next to her without attacking, he will dance next to her like someone seeking a dance partner at a party. His hand almost touches Lafite's chin several times, and he will say in a gentlemanly voice, "Want another dance?" It's quite funny.

The character Wuming's personality is a fusion of Wanbai, Xiaoer, Guishao, and Adao. It can be seen that they are all quite flirtatious by nature, but the things they encountered later made them unable to be flirtatious. The characteristics of Xiaoer as a happy little white wolf are fully revealed in Wuming.

After the taunt is triggered, Lafite's desire to attack will be further strengthened, but the attack accuracy will decrease, making it easier to dodge.

If you parry all her combos, you can unlock a special achievement, but this is too difficult for novices, so I won't teach you how to do it here. If you are interested, you can search for videos of those masters who have difficult combos. Many masters can use Wuming to make Laffey unable to get off the ground.

Ever since the character Wuming was updated, the bosses who were tired of playing with Xiao Er and bullying Wanbao are like finding a new toy. The complexity of Wuming is probably enough to keep them busy for a while.

The real battle with the BOSS begins when Rafi's health drops to one third. The previous ones can only be regarded as warm-ups and tutorials for beginners. The most criticized shitty moves all come from this mode.

First, Rafi will lift up the bangs covering her right eye and release a large amount of black tears, so that the black liquid covers the entire area. She can use the black tears to teleport across the entire map without pre-swing, and can even teleport when being comboed by the player, which disrupts the attack rhythm of many players and makes them suffer a lot.

Players who are familiar with Lafite know that physical attacks cannot control her at all. In the previous game, only Wanbao's time stop could freeze her. The outstanding feature of this character is that she is "slippery" and cannot be locked up no matter what.

Then in the Black Tear Field, Rafi will create several camouflaged clones, each of which has independent AI control, and it is impossible to tell which one is the original. So when she clones, don't rush to use your ultimate move, as it is easy to waste it on the clone.

At this stage, it is recommended to switch the weapon to the Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword, and keep moving away to use elemental skills to consume her until the clone ends. By the way, you can also use the Heaven and Earth Thunder Sword to improve your rating. Although the peak damage of this weapon is not as high as that of the Epsilon Greatsword, it is very brainless and can get a high rating by randomly pressing it. It is recommended for novices to use this to build confidence.

This Thunder Sword has a skill that consumes the mana bar and summons five clones with different attributes at the same time. You can rub them out and let them play with Lafei, while you dance and taunt on the side. You can even chat with Huang who is watching, and Wuming will also make faces at Huang's trembling cat.

After Rafi's clone time ends, it's our turn to show our skills. She will be in a weak state for the first ten seconds, which is the best time to output damage. Change the style to Swordmaster and the weapon to Epsilon Greatsword and use a JC (Jump cancel) combo on her to kill half of her health.

Different people have different understandings of JC. I will only talk about my own shallow understanding here. Please don’t criticize me.

"JC" is the abbreviation of "Jump Cancel". The core of this operation is "stepping on monsters to fly" and "double jump". First, double jump to stay in the air, use the grab skill to pull the monster close to perform an aerial combo. According to common sense, the body will begin to fall after a set of aerial combos, but if you step on the monster's head at this time, you can repeat the previous operation, thus achieving "infinite air", that is, "Ace Air Combat" mode. This mechanism allows the character to step on the monster and fly infinitely until it breaks through the map...

If it was a normal BOSS, you could just use JC to kill it, but this time the opponent was Lafite, and she had to kill him in ten seconds.

After entering the weakened state, Wuming will be shocked away, and the shock will have a damage judgment, which will rebound all the damage of Wuming's last move.

Therefore, JC should not try to look cool and use his ultimate skill to finish the fight, as this may easily lead to his own death.

In addition, at the moment when Lafite shakes Wuming away, Wuming can avoid the rebound damage by transforming, but the blue bar will be emptied instantly, which is not conducive to subsequent combat. So it is recommended to take this damage honestly.

In the final stage, Rafi will insert the cross-shaped long sword [Invincible Slash] into her own chest, forcing her to transform into her strongest form, which is to re-light the halo and grow wings of light. Her halo and wings are both emerald green and quite translucent.

Rafi's usual black ring state is actually a saving mode. After the halo and light wings are turned on, it is a super performance mode. In this state, any attack she makes will [kill with one hit]. Although you can switch to the trickster style to dodge infinitely, you will die if you are hit, and the shield will be broken in seconds. Rafi's attacks are even more annoying, switching back and forth between long-range and close-range.

In addition, Rafi's light wings can transform into arm shapes, which can grab and throw opponents. This is the so-called "light wing green claw mechanism". She will randomly grab objects on the field, such as the fallen Gunner Jeston, as a throwing weapon. She will also use her light wings to launch a large-scale barrage, and those light bullets will kill if they touch them. It is simply the most difficult "Touhou Project".

Rafi's light wings can also disintegrate into floating cannons (phantom swords?) to automatically search for enemies, so the final battle is full of light pollution, and you can see the barrage of bullets all over the screen. The light wings can also reflect the barrage of bullets and change the trajectory of movement, so that there is no blind spot in all directions.

Not only do you have to avoid Lafite's pursuit, but you also have to pay attention to the deadly barrage. You can't take care of it all without three heads and six hands.

In this state, you cannot attack at all and can only teleport continuously and wait for Rafi to exhaust herself to death. Her health will slowly decrease in this state, so we only need to hide from the hell-difficulty barrage for five minutes to pass the level. Sounds easy, doesn't it?

Well... this is indeed torture for newcomers, but the original intention of this series was to torture the players.

After hiding for five minutes, Rafi's health bar was emptied. When her health bar reached zero, she would explode. This attack was judged to be full screen, so it was useless to dodge. This required us to consume only 40% of our health in the whole process, otherwise we would die suddenly in the end. The result of the game would be judged as a mutual destruction, and we would only be rated two stars, and we would not be able to unlock new equipment and styles. It was a headache.

After Raffi blew himself up, he fell to his knees, but the game would not end if he did not actively attack. This is also in line with the setting that Raffi will never actively admit defeat.

At this time, if we use Wuming's sword to chop forward, a special dialogue will be triggered.

Wuming: "Don't you know what giving up means?!"

Wuming knocked Lafite down with a sword, and this sword directly shattered the game settlement screen, which was extremely visually impactful.

Then the cutscene begins, Wuming chops Rafi down with a sword, and Rafi's flesh and blood are stuck to a broken electric guitar on the road, which should be left by the runaway guitarist. Rafi's flesh and blood resonate with the guitar, making it float and repairing the broken part of the guitar.

Wuming smiled slightly when he saw this, it seemed that he had thought of how to deal with Lafite. He raised his sword and chopped Lafite quickly, cutting Lafite into a human stick like a butcher cutting up an ox!

Rafi's limbs were attached to the electric guitar, and finally a white lightning flashed with a black edge, and the broken electric guitar transformed into a magic weapon that sealed the power of the Lord! The sharp appearance showed the powerful power it contained!

"Cool!~~~Yeah!" Wuming raised his hand and sucked the sharp black and white electric guitar, and actually started to play it in style. Under his wild and passionate playing, a flock of crows flew out from the strings and danced to accompany him.

Huang, who had band experience, sighed after seeing Wuming's guitar solo:

“Amazing… you play it very well!”

After playing the rock song, Wuming jumped up and rolled in the air. The electric guitar in his arms turned into a domineering sickle. He chopped it down and then picked up the sickle and danced for a few times, and finally turned it back into an electric guitar.

Feelings:

"It feels good~nice! How about using this to open a concert someday? Please give me a thumbs up~"

No one responded. The more enthusiastic Wuming was, the lonelier he seemed. He was playing his lonely rock music alone in this place. It can be said that under his cheerful appearance, he was still lonely at heart, just like Lafite. They were essentially afraid of loneliness and packaged themselves in other ways.

Obtain new equipment [Divine Weapon - Raven Whisperer]

The divine weapon in the shape of an electric guitar contains most of the power of an ancient god. It can release and control the flock of dead crows through playing music. The more intense the performance, the higher the damage. In melee mode, it can be transformed into a black and white death sickle, and the attack has a true damage effect.

(Lao Mo: Haha! The old guy finally got some equipment!)

(Theoretically, Rafi could recover by stabbing himself with this guitar, guitar seppuku...)

Unlock new style [Gun God]

A style that strengthens ranged attacks, which can expand the attack range of ranged skills. Different derivative skills can be used in conjunction with different weapons.

Wuming put the electric guitar on his back, completely ignoring Lafei who was cut into a human stick behind him. He knew that this woman would not die so easily.

It is more like because she is difficult to kill, Wuming chose to spare her life, allowing her to continue to survive after taking away most of her power.

Wuming turned his back to Lafei and said:

"Even if I kill you here, you will be resurrected.

? So I won't do that meaningless thing, just reflect on yourself for a while. If you become my enemy again after this, I will really destroy you, I mean what I say! …………"

Wuming took a few steps forward, but heard Lafei calling him from behind:

"Boss...wait for me...don't..."

“…abandon me…”

The voice was so miserable and sad that Wuming stopped subconsciously. Somehow he couldn't go forward anymore.

"what?"

That’s all for today.

Chapter 394: Send! ——————

Rafi never thought that she would suffer an ugly defeat and get the fate she deserves. She would always win. No matter how many times she fell, she could always be resurrected and fight again!

But this time, it was no use. The man who defeated her not only destroyed her body, but also her heart. When the heart is scattered, no strength can be organized...

Rafi looked at the departing figure. In her hazy eyes, the figure overlapped with the familiar shadows from the past. She still reached out her hand and shouted at the figure as she did back then;

“…Boss!…Wait for me…” Rafi, who had lost his limbs, crawled on the ground like a slug.

She begged him desperately:

“Please!…Don’t abandon me!!………”

At this most powerless moment, Laffi used a little strength to change her body structure in a hurry. Her body was originally made up of countless black crows, so changing her body shape naturally did not require as much trouble as other strong men.

Every cell in her body adapted to her change in consciousness, and what was left of her body deformed like plasticine, leaking out energy in the form of steam.

As his body shape changes, Rafi also recalls what happened in the past...

Dusty memories, the distant past, this is what happened before this world was born...

"Fran, all kinds of tragedies happen all the time on this land. Maybe someone is dying tragically right now, or there is a conspiracy being planned. So, if we are always merciful for small things, we will have trouble moving forward in this tragic world. So we need to be cruel when necessary. Do you understand?"

The white-haired Rupert man in a neat suit sat on a stone pier and spoke. He lowered his head slightly while speaking, and the shadow of his bangs covered the upper half of his face, making him look gloomy. His tone, his attitude, his posture, everything explained the "cold" mentioned earlier.

The man held the cigarette butt in his left hand, and after saying that, he exhaled a strand of black hair, raised his right hand and handed the gun he had just disarmed to the platinum-haired Sakota girl standing on the right. The girl was about thirteen or fourteen years old, and she was not called "Lafite" at that time. The ring on her head was not pure black, but a light emerald color, a symbol of spiritual power.

"Boss..." Fran kept addressing the man, but the man did not respond.

The man pointed at a row of people with sacks over their heads. They were tied up like crabs for sale. They spoke a language he could not understand, probably begging for mercy. These guys were from the Dongguo gang that committed crimes in the man's territory, also known as the "Yakuza".

"In the final analysis, the so-called gangs, whether they are the Mafia or the Yakuza, are just a group of thugs who never grow up. They use the perverse logic of necessary evil to do shameful things, and corrupt the morals under the banner of benevolence, righteousness, chivalry and morality. They are just a group of people whose deaths are not worth it." This is the man's evaluation of the gangs.

Fear, anger, despair... Fran could smell the emotions emanating from those extreme people. But she felt nothing from the man next to her, she only felt cold.

Without any orders from the man, Fran walked over and untied the ropes on the yakuza one by one and comforted them.

The man did not comment on Fran's behavior. He remained calm. He wanted to see what the little guy opposite could do to him.

The kidnapped people were even more terrified, as they couldn't understand why the little girl untied them. Sometimes the unknown is more frightening than the immediate threat.

"You guys run away, get out of here as fast as you can, we promise not to chase you." After Rafi untied the rope of the last man, he pulled off the sack on his head, looked at the middle-aged man from the East with gentle eyes, and told him in the common Colombian language.

The others should have understood as well, and immediately stood up tremblingly and ran towards the distant horizon.

The man looked at the people's receding backs and calmly reminded Fran, "They are about to run away."

"Do you think it's fun to shoot at a motionless target?"

"Hmm?" The man hummed. He understood the girl's intention almost instantly, and his face was full of pride. "So that's how it is... You always surprise me."

Fran looked at the figures gradually moving away and thought, "Run, run farther."
