Lupicus
the kick in phase 1 has about half a second for you to react. The wind up is really subtle as well. Use aegis just in case you miss the dodge. In phase 2 I dodge as soon as he raises his right arm, that has always worked. I don’t recommended using aegis on that because you will still get the bleed stacks even if you block it. There is no melee attack in phase 3 except for the aoe lifesteal and frenzied blast.
But the main problem seemed to be that he just kept kicking over and over, when he was at 50% he had kicked like 9 or 10 times in 30 seconds. Is he really supposed to do it that often ? It felt like we were doing something wrong because yesterday he kicked like maybe 4 times in the same amount of time, just seemed weird.
wut, I watched a guildie trying to solo him over and over again last night and he only kicked people in phase one (usually after every second animation but can be random) as he always has. You either had a buggy lupi or we have different definitions on kicks o_O
I guess it might’ve been a bug then, we used feedback for the AoE circles and right after he did like a swipe that killed our entire party in one shot. Our builds werent obviously optimal speedrun builds because he had 50% left after first feedback but I had never seen that happen before.
Edit: Oh I read what you wrote in your first post and I guess we should’ve dodged that melee swipe, but he did it twice during the 2nd phase. Before AoE circles that we blocked with Aegis and after too.

If you’re referring to the phase 2 swipe attack (I call it the kitten slap) then you need to either side-strafe it or dodge it. The reason why he swiped you quite a lot in the fight was because all of your party members were melee-ing him. If all party members are in melee range, he doesn’t shadowstep to targets so the only other moves available to him are the single target/AOE projectiles and the swipe.
and if you melee him, don’t all stand in front of him
Only cowards attack others from behind.
Oh, and thieves as well.
well, I can’t be called a coward, he is usually facing me but that is the fault of my groups. They all die leaving me all alone
The swipe is easy enough to dodge. If his right arm moves, mash buttons. The only moves he will do in melee that don’t have a huge telegraph are the kick in P1 and the Messatsu Gohadou in P3. The latter gives you enough time to react to the circles, at least, although you probably will take a bit of damage.
Messatsu Gohadou? Rapidfire?
BTT: He can’t swipe 10 times in 30 seconds.
Hyperbole, like saying you can get 40s of retalation through blast finishers. Don’t be meticulous.
The swipe is really slow. Just walk behind him.
I take my time. I will not run from lupi!
I usually just range him and he never does those attacks.

Scary to see his head from inside. Not to mention that dancemove.
Oh, didn’t know you play chronomancer. Official test?
Definitely the scariest thing I’ve seen in any video games.
