- Preheads afk a lot. Just did a run and HT only attacked once during 2nd prehead. You can reset your ship with the rock before main fight anyway
- You don't constantly take the 7.8k hit
- A lot of hits I take are 1/1 or mana burs [1 hp attacks]
- 1/1s are very noticeable
- I get stomped a lot but that's because i'm on legs side. Being on tail side, you wont' get stomped as much
- During tail, a lot of the damage taken will be from the rock, which does a little under 2k
- During tails/legs, you get hit the most
- Once wings are down, the highest damage you take is 5~5.5k from magic
- When only 3 heads + left arm is left, you take damage sometimes. When 1 head goes down, you take damage a lot less, even moreso when the other head goes down
- HT super defs a lot. You can purposely break your ship if it's almost broken or get off your ship to save HP, thus cutting down time. Transformation is screwed at this point as they are just wasting time. They can work around this though by attacking another part of HT
- Last arm, your ship probably has a <0.1% chance of breaking
For zakum, it afks too. You can dodge fire pillars and 1/1 pretty easily as they have long and noticeable animations. Even the lightning + seal attack
excellent post. personally, i cannot wait to take my ship into battle with HT as i have only seen buccs so far. (time leap mules FTW!-nonstop echo >.<) also personal skill DOES come into play here....what's that you say? maple takes no skill?! i say to you-welcome to the pirate class! the dawn of actual skill usage! when i first started i couldn't keep my ship alive for more than a few minutes. i am now able to keep my ship going for long stretches of time by learning how to time on board and off. newties are auto-aggro and present the kind of rope-climbing BS that is present at HT. learning to use the rocks in the cave will be the best skill a corsair can learn. and as a note-so far i haven't noticed 1/1 affecting my ship, but i may have missed it since i'm still learning. my hubby is a 13x bucc but i havent had a chance to watch him yet as i'm too focused on my own HP bar and ship icon.
i've asked his sister to help us make a video so we can watch it carefully, or if anyone wants to help us in Windia i'd be willing to test dmg using all possible scenarios with a nice clean cut comparison of equal level and geared pirates.
