Guardian v. Korg

AMS94AMS94 Member Posts: 1,776 ★★★★★
Is it possible for a Guardian to defeat a 6* R3 Korg in 81 seconds, 66 hits, with Masochism node in Battlegrounds, with 95.1% remaining HP
Remember that almost all of Guardian's damage comes from shocks & Korg is shock immune
Without his shocks the only damage he'll be doing is through basic non critical hits, & Korg would've had roughly 173600 HP (43400 + 300%)
Also note that Korg is duped & gives back physical damage which isn't reduced by Guardian's sig ability, so the player must've had to do a lot of 4 hit combos to avoid thorns damage
Also he had suicides & finished with 95% health which means no specials were used & all the damage was dealt through basic hits only

    I have no idea if it’s possible, but guardian bypasses korg’s thorns damage because guardian deals energy damage

    Possible, you also do not understand the mechanics at play here.

    Yeah that one I forgot about
    But still 66 hits seem less for 173k health with just basic hits
    I get that it's possible, but that seems like once in a while almost perfect run

    I don't know about the health pool and duration, but in a practice dual, my 3* took down my 5* r3 Korg easily without suicides and only 1 sp3. Suicides would actually help guardian in your fight... Giving him willpower healing, throw a couple sp 3s to build charges without recoil and a massive sp2 energy damage while rock shield is down should be pretty devastating.

    Edit: don't forget guardian can perfect block unlockable specials and build up his power meter quickly in the process to to get those sp3s off quickly.

    66 Hits? Sounds like they parried the SP1 for extra power gain while it wasn’t unblockable. Used an SP3 for extra force Charges, and used an SP2. Also because of Guardians bleed resistance at max sig (plus even one point in coagulate) he’d be gaining health during the initial bleed stage. 81 seconds is a long time to build up force charges and do some solid damage, even without the shock help.

    So yeah.

    Honestly if someone's doing that many hits and taking their time, it's probably a legit fight.

    You also don't know what rank their Guardian is.

    I don't think Guardian is a good choice against Korg, but hey, it can still work. I've got a 5*r5 sign 200 Guardian.
