MoistWomble Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Today i tried to kill Jackal (more than once) but after a while he was starting to spam with rockets and kill everyone. He was doing that over and over, no one could shoot him... Is it bugged or it is too op? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XenoFant Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Have you done it alone or in a session, because alone with normal weapons it is hard to kill him. But I also think that he was buffed a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoistWomble Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 In squad of course, i don't go alone to kill bosses :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Babellon Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 trick to killing jackal- use the pillars to block the rockets, shoot the legs, when he collapses, shoot the body. Keep doing that cycle until he dies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrn Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Bosses scale with players now. If you and your team bring in better gear/mods, then the bosses will be higher leveled. That causes an issue when a bunch of players bring in weaker equipment but the cumulative Conclave (which I am assuming it scales off of) is enough to boost its level past what the players can handle. Jackal has been fine for me lately (nothing over-the-top, and I'm loving the scaling), but it's also a boss I've killed probably a thousand times. Pretty much, bosses can be harder in groups. Prepare for the fight, learn how to target/counter the boss, and work together. Also, if Jackal just stands there and launches wave after wave of missiles, then there might be a problem. I have only seen him launch a few barrages since U14, so it might just be a bug. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoistWomble Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 (edited) I do know how to kill him, the squads were good, no newbies. Once we almost killed him but then he started to spam the rockets, couldn't hide after those pillars because the rockets were coming for us avoiding the pillars. Also, if Jackal just stands there and launches wave after wave of missiles, then there might be a problem. I have only seen him launch a few barrages since U14, so it might just be a bug. Yes that's what it happens... Edited August 8, 2014 by Just4Games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is very bad for new players, because they might face a level 40+ boss if the host is a experienced player with maxed gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
(PSN)DesecratedFlame Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Lol, no. Just get in his face and spam melee. He goes full moron when you do. It's like he has no idea what to do and just stands there letting you beat him to death. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vyrn Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Yes that's what it happens... Weird. I vaguely recall reading someone else saying that happens, so it must just be a bug. Maybe something in his animation for it gets broken (like going down during it), and that just causes it to repeat. That'd be my guess, but I haven't a clue. In any case, let's hope for a fix soon, Bosses scale with the host's conclave rating and amount of the players in the squad, as far as I know. This is very bad for new players, because they might face a level 40+ boss if the host is a experienced player with maxed gear. It wouldn't be just the host's rating. I played a game with some friends who just started out (I wasn't host), and my modding on Lato+Oberon made Vor level 30. Conclave rating for the whole group would explain that. Man, as horrible as I felt for making that fight happen and confusing/scaring them all, it was pretty hilarious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be the highest conclave rating in the squad or something, but it should be the average conclave rating in the squad.

DrBorris Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 I like the new scaling, Rank 38 Jackal vs. Rank 15 Quanta is the most fun I had in Warframe in awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
