Never really post on the forums. Mostly just like to read but drastic times call for drastic measures. Been soloing Arah p2 for a while and finally was able to kill lupi daily. But now it seems I’ve hit a brick wall named Alphard. I play warrior and I’ve tried everything suggested on the forums and youtube vids. Nothing seems to be panning out. Any suggestions, tips would be most helpful. Also if you could take some time to teach me in game I’d just die from joy! Thanks again everyone. (on EU server but in US….friends in EU so, yep)

Did this happen after the new patch?

Maybe there was a fix in the patch that made it a bit more challenging to solo.

I had problems with alphard too and this video helped me a lot, it still takes a couple tries to get it right but it works just as good on warrior. Also, even if the “pillar” block the pull, it is still a good idea to dodge just in case, better be safe than sorry :P.

The tactic is pretty simple, just turn around the pillar, this way when he shoots he hits the pillar, also adds will LoS and come to you which make it really easy to deal with them. The camera is really annoying but you get used to it.

I’m not sure if you’re running the new Pure Axes meta build but it’s great for this fight, really easy to interupt the auto attack for dodging and also the block on sword 5 if you’re taking a lot of damages.
