76 Specter College: Training Grounds Instance Dungeon Strategy Guide (2/2)
The minions were all elite monsters. Take note that they had no Aggro!
Whether they are minions or the BOSS, they have no Aggro. They attack based on their whims and aren't affected by taunting. They don't attack the closest enemy.
They will attack our weaknesses!
The weaknesses aren't the game's setting or data. Based on our conclusion, if you stumble, swing too hard and are unable to retrieve your sword, or fall into a daze, these are all weaknesses. They will make use of the weaknesses to deal a fatal blow!
What is the solution? Back to the basics—block with a shield!
Don't depend on a dedicated Tank. Treat everyone as a Tank, otherwise, it's not possible to defeat them. At least at the beginning, with our current equipment level, we have to resort to this strategy.
To fight the minions, we followed the One Block, One Slash method. The safest way is to make use of the recovery time of the monster's attacks to counterattack.
If the monster attacks you, do not be impatient and counterattack. Use a +3 shield to block effectively. Don't worry that it will be like Cramer's attack and crush the shield and shield-bearer.
The monsters that we encountered were Goblin Skeletons, Gnome Skeletons, and Houndhead Man Skeletons. There were Dire Wolf Skeletons, but they were few.
The minions were easily defeated as long as one was cautious. The crux was defeating the BOSS.
The BOSS doesn't have any skills. Every one of his attacks is a skill.
Besides having more dialogue, the BOSS had a layer of gray aura, which some called a force field, Chakra, or Dragonball Power.
I call it Mana according to the game context.
Mana strengthened the BOSS, which was usually an Orc Skeleton or Werewolf Skeleton. I don't know if there will be other Skeletons with difficult to pronounce names.
They are difficult to deal with and defeat.
The attacks of the BOSS were unable to damage our shields, but their strength and agility were much stronger than the minion Skeletons. Their bones were extremely hard and required ten continuous hackings to break, while the bones of the minions were broken with two hacks.
I recommend hacking any of the leg bones. If you can break one, congratulations, you can complete the Instance Dungeon.
The difficulty of the BOSS decreases a lot after the leg bone is broken. Is that a weakness of the BOSS?
The monsters consisted of two BOSSES, one on level two and one on level four. The level two BOSS that we encountered was weaker, and the level four BOSS was stronger. Other teams encountered the reverse configuration. I suppose that deployment was random.
It's not effective to use Block Once, Slash Once on the BOSS. It depends on real skill. The speed of the BOSS was fast, so there was no recovery time to exploit. We had to depend on bracing the attacks or praying that we weren't hit. After that, we tried to inflict as much damage as possible.
I will say again—hack the thigh!
It's best to improve equipment to Level 3. We have a teammate called Peasant. His improved Breastplate was destroyed before setting off, so he used normal armor. The attack of the BOSS penetrated his armor and killed him. I won't describe his demise or show the picture since it would be censored.
Protect your neck. BurningChestHair from my team was decapitated.
I will end the discussion of the Strategy Guide since it is getting late. Tomorrow, our team is going to challenge the Instance Dungeon for a second time. I am unable to finish the strategy guide in one post with limited time. I will put in more detail next time.
I am publishing the screenshots of the Instance Dungeon. Enjoy!

In conclusion, this Instance Dungeon is extremely fun!
I will read the replies of the post tomorrow morning. Goodnight everyone!”

Sherlock browsed the contents of the forum once. Some were pleading for the Second Beta or Beta Tester status. Some bragged about killing the BOSS in the Instance Dungeon within seconds. Most of them were gamers who indicated ”666”.
The gamers were fond of this Instance Dungeon.
As Bru said, the gamers were most concerned about the Instance Dungeon's equipment and its quality.
Sherlock thought they loved money, but he discovered that they loved equipment. Money was a means to get better equipment.
Sherlock became worried as he noticed how serious the gamers were discussing the Instance Dungeon Strategy Guide.
Would the graduation rate of the Liches drop to a record low?
