9.1 Boss - Orochi - Counter

Fryday

I have seen quite a few players used Lady D for this boss.

I don't have Lady D, could anyone know if Shuri or Scorpion does the job easy enough, or do I need to rank up Iron Heart?

Many thanks for any experienced advice.

If you have Juggs you don't even need to read her abilities. Just keep hitting her till she's dead

Shuri won't work. Boss is shock immune. As are most mutant fights in 9.1. Surprise Surprise.

I really don't think you even need one. He just makes whatever her abilities are moot (i didnt read them).
The fight was basically just hitting/intercepting her, baiting her specials, and dropping sp2s. Eventually you'll just win.
There is some kind of regen mechanic she has but I wasn't able to figure out what triggered it, it didn't matter in the end since she still died

No shout outs for Gorr yet? He’s just as much a cheat code for Orochi as LDS, arguably more so. Stacks DOT debuffs very quickly and easily, plus he triggers regen buffs when inflicted with Orochi’s bleed and poison passives so he can stay at max health for most of the fight. Focus on light ending combos to maintain your shadow magic buffs then switch to medium enders once you’re ready to stack DOTs and go for damage.

Minor caveats to his usage: the poisons reduce regen potency so if you start eating hits you’ve got a small period before the poisons expire and the regen “kicks in” and starts to bring you to full, tho this is only really a problem if you eat multiple combos back to back. Orochi also inflicts a marked passive if you go below 18% which prevents further regens from triggering, this persists even if your existing regens bring you back above 18% so try not to let yourself get too low. Those sound like scarier prospects than they are in practice, Gorr is basically immortal unless you screw up really badly or you don’t do enough to maintain your shadow magic buffs.

I did it with omega sentinel with Nimrod synergy . I found that to be super easy and safe.

She regens 95% of damage taken -5% per damaging effect max is 50% regen from damage

KT1 had onslaught ranked high… anyone try him?

I used him, he did pretty well. My favorite to use was Werewolf by Night though, easy stacking ruptures

Ugh I'm either getting old or working graveyard shift is getting to me. I really thought it said shock instead of spectra. Possibly both?

If it makes you feel better, I read it as spectre (so knew that Deathless guiilly sp2 wouldn't work), but also thought that I couldn't bring Shuri because shock wouldn't work. So I'm old with you too.

I don't know how you folks found it so easy. I found her to be extremely frustrating.

It waa really just the inexorable, starting with the 3rd phase. She would just keep backing me up against the wall, and once she had me there, she would hold her specials and either heavy me to death or build an sp3 if i fought back

I think it was the single most frustrating bossfight I've had so far in this game.

I used doom, shuri, tigra, sasquatch and OS. i had some good lives with all 5 of them, but it was more about AI cooperation than anything else in this fight.

I thought the person mentioning juggs above was nuts, but in retrospect, i think that would work better because it will keep you out of the corner.

I hated it.

It's so easy fight just take a heavy hitter and hit until she die.
I solo her with white tigra 2 revs with absman and 4 champs in the last fight (photon abs kushala onslut)
She's only 250k health and her specials/heavy eassssy evade

Huge shoutout to werewolf. He literally cheeses her and the power gain is very helpful for the fight. Omega sentinel is another good option.

Shuri works but takes a lot of bleed poison damage.

Omg I always yap about that synergy and forgot to bring nimrod for completion. Gonna do it with omega sent + nimgod (Especially orochi sp2 has like 15 hits).

The heavy on Lady D allows for a reasonably spaced retreat when Orochi fires sp, once you do it a few times and get into a good rhythm it seems to come naturally. I also took in Scorpion as a back up and you can really be far as his heavy has great range, can use him to practice too.

The frustrating part for me was actually how to start the fight, immediately blocking and baiting a heavy was sometimes effective, immediate backdraft didn't always work, alot of times I ended up blocking a full barrage. I probably should have ranked up my 6* Lady D higher (used r4 unascended sig 61).

Stay defensive and try to dash intercept. Worked for me everytime.

If you throw a special the inexorable will gp way and you can maintain distance.
