From fighting him solo, and taking him from 75% down to 22% here’s what I found out by using my R3 duped Dust.
1. It is very very important, to line up your special light attack punishes; to avoid that insane thorns damage.
2. Only use a medium attack when punishing a special, when absolutely necessary. Think of it being a “do or die” moment.
3. It is virtually impossible, to get a full 12% run each time- due to the indestructible, unblockable, resist, and pierce from the node. Don’t beat yourself up, if you only get 6-10% off in one go. That’s pretty normal.
4. This difficulty while definitely hard, isn’t too hard to not complete it. It definitely is overtuned though, and this Korg’s resistance’s and Thorn’s definitely need at least a bit of tuning down. One medium attack hit shouldn’t offset my health by 10%. That’s just insane.

    What lane you were fighting him on matters?

    Lane 1 = rough.
    Lane 2 = easyish.
    Lane 3 = easy

    The hard bit is the prompts based on the node. Lane one is the last node is korg. You’ve got resist specials and heavy node. You’ve got punish heavy and specials triggers only for raid charges. Given that korg sp2 is easy to punish, but his sp1 isn’t so for many I feel, lane 1 is the worst for him.

    Lane 2 was easyish korg. Middle node . He just got mowed down pretty promptly. Easy prompt triggers. Hit him with mediums, hit with lights, knock him down, dex him.

    Lane 3 is easy korg. Punish specials and heavies I think?. But no resist specials mode here. Big difference. Can’t quite remember this one as it was a while ago.

    Think lane 2 and 3 have it easy. Weapon x and jabari aren’t too much of a problem. Korg is with those nodes on lane 1.

    Im on lane 2 but i still have to punish specials just because of the crit crusher node thing to ramp storm. Having to get rid of The rock shield everytime makes it so im not able to ramp up her damage from the prompts as efficiently and so i was barely getting any damage in

    Oh damn yeh. The tactic does make a difference.

    Finishing with combo ender is easiest of course. and just punishing heft or special is next best, but only if it’s easy..Korg sp1..nope lol.

    The intercept tactics are pretty rough too.

    Seems a bit arbitrary to have each tactic require Different prompts, but some are way harder to do…

    The hardest lane imo, Lane 1. Where you have no room for error at all, and basically have to get AI to play into you; and throw the specials at the right time or game over.

    I was thinking about you on the BG thread, but couldn't remember the name to tag. I'll tag you there now, I think you'll like that thread.


    **Perhaps I don't tag you there, it's about the time change. I'll tag you if someone complain about the meta.
    Ggs.

    I love how your dex fails (steadfast) and you're force to block 3 hits from the SP1 back to back due to power gain and losing 20% health each time

    If he has unblockable, pretty much game over

    Or you hit him 4% and need a striker to canx the invincible + unblockable but he has 7x thorn charges..... fun (sarcastic)
