To be constructive, rather than pile on with the "get good" and elitist comments.... I have a similar problem, when trying to bait his sp1 (or iron Man, Kang, cyclops) I often get clipped.
So to reassure you, I only managed to get the GM to wounded 2 or 3 times and those were with g2099, so did no damage. I just used units to get him down, with 2/35 Corvus at 3 charges. 2000+ units...
However, despite what all the people above are saying, I and you are not the only ones. We even have @Kabam Miike to keep us company. He used 50 revives too, roughly 2k units worth. There is a slightly more realistic thread here, than the comments about soloing with cyclops and of Spiderman:
If at the end of it, your feel a bit down and disheartened (I did!!) It's not the end. Perhaps my wider story of getting through this game without huge skills and by mainly grinding units and revives, will give you some measure of reassurance that you can progress:
Hello @Himmy619. Thank you for starting this discussion. I'll be moving it to the strategy board for major visibility.
Thanks mate. If boss fights are too hectic it should be made for non permanent content so that if one is not able to clear it their furthur progress is not hampered but if you wanna make permanent content their bosses should be tough but should also be doable with units too. I am stuck at grandmaster fight and unless I clear it I won't be able to access act 7. That way i would lose interest too. There are lot of players like me too. If you want to make such highly skilled boss's make it for non permanent content so that if someone is not able to clear it , he can skip it as it's for too skilled player. I am sure you want players to enjoy the game not get frustrated and leave it Before pre nerf of champion fight I was frustrated and decided to leave the game but after post nerf I was happy for champion fight and was able to make my way till act 6.4.5. Now I am stuck at grandmaster boss.
Friend of mine has done it in a similar manner with his corvus. Took him about 3k units. But there is nothing in the fight stopping you. Only the last 1% will require the skill to not die during the unstoppable. But the first 99% can be done with unit man.
I am bad at dexing , so everytime I dex grandmaster sp1 I get clipped by his unblocakable part and then I get wrecked . So I am thinking of another strategy that invloves lot of units. Ramping up my aegon till grandmaster fight . After that when grandmaster fight starts I will be using heavy to gain furies when grandmaster attacks and then hit him like a truck , also will be using heimdall to cheat death and hit grandmastee like a truck whenever I get clipped. By above method if I can take out around 100000 health each fight I can take out grandmaster in 4000 units.
Is above stattegy possible ?
if u dont understand the mechanic of the grandmaster go watch youtube videos of seatin lagacy brian grant mcoc noob kt1 , man there are so many ppl doing youtube and doing a really good explanation of the fight. I am really bad with inverted controls and i died 13 times at the grandmaster in my first try thanks to those youtubers. Dont waste your time/money/units on a "strategy" that clearly isnt going to work instead go and learn how the fight works.
