DeadScream Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Now that lephantis is a pure bullet sponge, and since you spend your time eating the ground if you don't play Rhino or Trinity (still can eat the ground with them), could we please get an increased drop chance on the new stance mod ? I got 3 pressure point, I'm so glad it's my 523, 524, and 525th pressure point, now I need new things and I'm tired. It's my second 45min fight and still no stance. Is that normal, when some people get it twice on the first try ? Not to mention the 1h craft for the key... Gotta go to work, have a nice day :< Edited July 23, 2014 by DeadScream Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shion963 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 RNG being RNG, man. Leph's really an unapologetic sponge now. Something from him needs a reduction, maybe the damage scaling. And that damn Kenny G head's explosive darts are OP as hell. I can fight him fine, my brother not so much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OrphanMaker Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Stop crybabying! I beat him 4 times already. I got Eleventh Storm on every run. On one run I got 2 Eleventh Storms. Edited July 23, 2014 by OrphanMaker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatpig84 Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 The easiest way is 3 Corrosive projection + 1 energy siphon. Then use high powered, high dmg per shot weapons. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repligon Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 You can abort mission after the first stage and not loose the key. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Edeamous Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) Stop crybabying! I beat him 4 times already. I got Eleventh Storm on every run. On one run I got 2 Eleventh Storms. You really like to say 'crybaby' alot and $#*(@ and boast about how lucky your drops are. You're kind of an asshat. Not EVERYONE who plays warframe or videogames in general is a tryhard grindmonkey with no real life outside of videogames. Masochistic gamers such as yourself are not a majority, they are a minority. So instead of telling people to suck it up' at an extreme and obviously poorly-executed 'band-aid' change; you instead should give some damned helpful input. As far as my two cents on the matter, I haven't personally fought the 'New' Lephantis, but with as many times as I ran the boss for fun before, and how many times I've seen him instagib'd- he needed a buff; but not to be buff. Damage reduction is cool and good and wonderful, an anti- instagib mechanic would be a great addition as well as some AI extensions. Nothing but turning him into a giant soak that newer players who want stances, parts and mods or just to enjoy the fight- cannot ACTUALLY touch? That's absolutely unacceptable.

Otakuwolf Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 I just came here after fighting Lephantis with some friends... and it's pure BS, the problem is not the buff but the fact IT DOES NOT DIE, we were all the time like "Geee does this guy even die ? Please make him die ! I'm sick tired of this crap just make him die for God's sake !" And we all lost because of that (we don't like to play tanks like Rhino or Trinity), not because we were hit, but because spending time on his second phase in which about 90% of the stage is polluted by toxic clouds turning him into an endurance challenge rather than a skill one, and even worse we found the Eleventh Storm stance too so the defeat was double. Seriousely, after spending so long time spamming bullets with fully modded Soma and Boltor Prime rifles and seeing his health dropping ridiculousely slowly from such damage it's clear that there is something wrong with the way it was buffed. Is not the fact that is strong to bother me right but but the fact that it is BORING to fight the same enemy for so long without seeing any sign of the battle end, it's no more a skill challenge but rather an endurance challenge, one based more on how long your braincells can keep functioning before dieing out of boredom rather than keep them working on skill based actions. A buff is ok but THIS is way too much, awesome boss became boredom endurance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jufrow Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 45 mins... lol... Are people trying to kill him with unranked weapons/frames? I just did this boss several times today and have no idea what all the *@##$ing is about. Does he take longer to kill? Yes. Was he a pushover before? Yes. Grow a pair...

Corodix Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 did they buff him under the assumption that everybody has a nova with MP in their 4 player group, as MP effectively halves it's hp and would have made it quite easy otherwise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Repligon Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 Small tip. It seems to scale basing on your conclave rating. Take only one weapon. Also corrosive projections will help much with its ridiculous armor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grow a pair... 4 forma boltor prime barely hits 25 dmg per shot man. Maybe my build is not the best for this boss but it's still damn awful. BTW he was lv 80 and we were only 3 players in the squad.

Gotta go to work, have a nice day :< LOL been getting sooo many eleventh storms relax bud, just bring brakk players with you. if it's a rare drop it's a rare drop. Go play runescape and comeback i'm sure when you get back you won't feel like ur getting ripped off at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's absolutely unacceptable. if you play with the right players you can get a latron prime in the first day. they will run you through a few missions. I have everything and do I have a life? yes I do I work out daily and go out with friends IT IS POSSIBLE and saying "because I have a life" is no excuse. It can be done.

And that damn Kenny G head's explosive darts are OP as hell. I can fight him fine, my brother not so much. No damage is fine, read his weaknesses, THAT will help you I guarantee the devs are trying to get players to read boss's weaknesses now. because it is actually a "tactical" fight.

Midas Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 (edited) If it scales by conclave you NEED to bring members that are all around your level and equipment. this will help you defeat the boss faster, that is the real problem don't jump to fast conclusions ;) Edited July 23, 2014 by Lighter2017 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I meant the damage he DEALS. I do run with Corrosive for the +75% against Fossilised. I meant about loosening up his routines, have it be less punishing. They probabably know the threshold between a whole under equipped cell and a really buff solo player. The main difference being team players can stand to take a few hits and be downed while a soloer would need some leniency. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would put armor mods on, I use the aeigs for protection usually. if you sprint dodge the Lephantis's scythe you should be okay otherwise, duck and cover!

Otakuwolf Posted July 23, 2014 Share Posted July 23, 2014 again it's a boss, if you are a "low" level player don't attempt it. Dude, i'm rank 16 and i soloed him many times even without "superguns" like the ones i mentioned (which i took just today after long time because of Lephantis obnoxious hp and resistance), don't judge people just because are not as hardcore as you are, if you enjoy endless boss fights it's your buisness but don't pretend that everyone has to do the same just because you want it. Do you want a challenge or some bragging right ? Bring weaker guns, don't demand overbuffs and make everyone pay for it when didn't ask for.

The scythe is chump, it's easy to just stay under its swing. Corpus head's pods are straightforward: damage when hit or spawns when not. It's the KennyG's darts that I 'love' the most. High on-impact damage to punish you if you were hit when you didn't notice (evading a massive scythe infested who popped up in your way, for example) and high explosive damage shortly after. Dude's always my priority target. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
