Fighting the new Bigfoot - Mark - 2008-10-02
It's not as complex as you think. Did you forget about the jump down skill?
Anyway, the side with that hill is ridiculous when trying to hit BF, and puppeting on the top is risky in itself. Don't knock it 'till you try it.

I prefer using the right side of the map as there isn't a ridiculous hill-like structure. Also sticking the puppet on the far right and left smaller platforms is safer and easier. Once Bigfoot breaks out of your hold, run to the top and wait to see what it does, then once it goes under one of the smaller platforms AE/AR it and stick puppet right there and he'll never reach it.

I hate bigfoot =( Scania has like 5 of them running around in that map atm. I soloed one but died many times because many noobs kept invading the map and puppet didn't work. I HATE IT'S KB!!

i normally clear forgotten path and one or two twisteds each time i go hunting with my NL buddies. 3 / 7 maps with them isn't too bad lol.

I tend to look around for one on Forgotten Path every time I level, just to see if I can realistically beat one... They're never there

Yeah, because the Forgotten Path Bigfoots are the only ones most people can kill. Lol
I have no trouble finding Bigfoots whenever I need, because there's always some in Twisted Paths or Evil Dead. Really, it's only BMs and Heroes that take the Bigfoots that don't require using the map to kill them. <3

I tried to fight bigfoot in Twisted Path today after levelling. I managed to push him in a corner and took off a good 1/6 HP off him, but then a jr wraith knocked me onto him >_<
It's really annoying fighting him in twisted path, just cuz he keeps on killing puppet in 2-3 hits, and I have to get up close so I don't end up shooting air half the time. And those jr wraith are freaking annoying.

it's because of the glitched KB that most people have trouble. i can fight him just fine in twisted, but it's annoying as heck cause no matter what you do you lose ground T.T
if he didn't have the wierd KB i'd kill him probably ~10 minutes faster on my solos and ~6m faster on my duos.

I essentially solo'ed it... The lacking exp is from random people coming in, taking potshots and leaving and that pineapple of an ice archmage that came in when it was nearly dead, trying to KS it. Because of him, I was relegated to using rain in the middle otherwise I'd die...![[Image: kejjhh.jpg]](http://i33.tinypic.com/kejjhh.jpg)
Anyway, I felt that the right side was way quicker than the left half of the map because of the slope that someone else already mentioned... My favourite technique was on the right side of the map, with the puppet as far right as possible on the right island and BF below the island. He very rarely managed to jump up twice and kill the puppet before the timer ran out. I would then hold strafe down for 3 shots, pause until BF's crying eyes disappear, repeat.
When the puppet ran out, i'd go up top and he'd follow on the bottom. I could therefore repuppet on the island and go below. Sometimes he'd run through puppet and get himself stuck again, giving me ~45 secs to pelt him. Other time he'd stop and stomp it. If he did that, I'd go up to the top left and strafe until puppet died. Then he'd either go right (which is perfect for rain + puppet on the island) or get shot.
If he got shot, I'd have to jump down, head right and puppet on the lower right ground. If done well, he'd walk over you and wind up to the right of puppet. As soon as it died, Rain + puppet right from the island, giving me roughly 50 secs at him...
I'm still pissed at that mage though. And no toe.
edit: Oh... I also abused the beginner heal in order to make the hundreds of "Puppet has run out" messages scroll. Makes it easier to notice a new puppet message when the scroll says "You may not use this skill yet" instead.
There were a few times I messed up and would have died if it weren't for my hog. I also got stuck on the right twice, needing to cc out and back in in order to survive... All in all, not bad for a first attempt. Definitely not doing it again at least until I get SE... or at least an apple. Heck, I was even out of 12 atk crystals and elixirs XD

The only time I ever lose ground when fighting Bigfoot is when the spawn catches me off guard/overwhelms me (sometimes in Evil Dead). I don't know how you're doing it, but you should be able to hold Bigfoot in any position you want or even push him around. When I solo in Evil Dead, I hold him right in front of the portal the entire time (you can check some of my Bigfoot SSs to see where, if you want). When I solo in Twisted Paths, I either hold him wherever I want or push him farther away to gain more room. In Forgotten Path I usually pin him in the corner or against one of the steps in the map.

it's a bit like anego, in that if you don't hit the min KB damage, it'll come and rush you. that's the problem i face, my low arrows do 1800~2800 and then he rushes me. until i get the 2k min damage (at 144 i should have it), i'll always have to worry about rushes.
Evil dead, i'm too concerned about fighting too many things at once. i'd try it in a party, but solo atm is really insane. i doubt the elders stand up to your hurricane, but they still take a bit to down with mine.
when i'm in a team with my NL's we just pin it to the barrier (i can do that on twisted on occasion). easy breezy. phoenix is a godsend in twisted for dealing with the wraiths

Hm, yeah, I guess I didn't consider that. My mins are doing 4k+, and I forgot to realize that.
Evil Dead can be a little insane. The one Elder Wraith that spawns over and over by where I fight isn't a problem. But occasionally a huge cluster of like 4-6 will come flying over...and then things can get messy. Just gotta keep your cool and focus on not losing Bigfoot.
Phoenix is, indeed, the sex.

Heres something for kicks. Soloing BF is kinda fun, did a few out of boredomness today. But yeah.

o_o Huh? Crabbb and I are both in Bera, so I'm not really sure what/why you're asking.
And do you not have Bow Expert maxed or something? My lowest crit is 10k+, even without an att pot.

o_o Uhm...I think I realize where your confusion is coming from now. He's hitting 14k's, not 1.4k's. You do realize that, right?
At first I was thinking you thought his damage was too high. But now I realize you're thinking it's too low. Haha

And wth @ randompeep lol? First you say "good point" then you tell her to look carefully. Haha

Look carefully. The lower number has a black line at the very edge of the screen that marks a 5th number.

nah felix, i'm 140 right on the dot. no way i have expert maxed. 30 hurr, 13se, and 16 be.
and yes i thought it was wayyyy too low lol. confusing photo is confusing f3.
my crits are 5.8~8.8k on BF or so... i don't really watch my numbers anymore, and usually train w/o pots lol. i'm also really weak (look at the archer damage ranges on basil or the actual website - i'm the person that's 120+ and like 500+ points below everyone else f3)
