Hi, im a shitzon. I've tried working with Korcolas guide, taking tips from SB's tantrumdin guide (I also expect a bit of innacuracy due to date of publishing), talked with a few people - and now I'm ready to pry my eyes out with a rusty spork. It must have been a fucking miracle last ladder to get it in 5ish tries but I'm too stubborn to move on to other ubers because I slowly improve my general survival which I'm happy - but am now becoming so burnt out from rerunning it it's borderline depressing.
Currently I have been killing Mendeln first and spamming wyrd right after when he has the last viewable bar of health in his name.
Shnurr was saying to kill rathma first because of his high avoid (makes sense, cant hit, how kill to sync swirls) and to kill mendeln, we will shoot 3 black slayers at him and finish him off with purify. The inconsistency of his health after 3 black slayers has worried me and how large of a health pool he has remained. (Somebody told me a few days later the invisible bolts flying from the red portals CAN hurt them but i have no fucking clue when it happens cause of avoid and this creates inconsistency again for me)
Another person said spam purify on Rathma when he is last left as wyrd is to maintain OW. 12 purifies in perfect succession and on top of the lack of accuracy because Rathma likes to stutter step a bit sometimes so meh, not feeling comfortable on this one. On top of that, i was trying to experiment with it just to see how much damage he took, and Mendeln spazzes out like he missed his meds or just likes to pop unholy armor in wierd moments (of course from getting too close, but holy shit with the accuracy on this one). Even if i hit (maybe it missed cause too long a range), it didn't seem to do much, so I'll just assume I'm super inaccurate.
Same person said you could to an extent rely on more bolts from Mendeln to finish off Rathma and swag it out with black slayer bolts, but it seems ballsier.
SB's guide said spam wyrd and finish with purify (watching the video i didn't see a purify, could have been due to old wyrd and how spammable it was clogging the screen and quick hotkey switching). I took this one as a maybe, but dont focus on it because different patches.
So once again, my survivability during the fight has much improved, but now I'm just wondering how the fuck do I kill these bastards before I kill myself at this rate? At this point I'm just yoloing through Rathma's avoid and praying I kill him. The only saving grace at this point is the demon keys I've recieved because it's a please try again but sometimes you just want to say "oh my fucking god it's over" and move on to the next ubers.
I am super fussy with detail so the more you explain in detail, the more appreciated it will be. Thanks.
