Hello,
I'm struggling with a strategy to take down Hit Monkey. Juggling between:-
Falter every 6 seconds
Regeneration 90% of damage (in between Striker cooling down)
Hit Monkey's Evade, Unblockable and Crits
By the time I managed to dex Hit Monkey (Unblockable) SP1, the Falter started, which last around 4 seconds (out of 6 seconds timer), so I end up spending most of the time trying to dex (which we all know how reliable the game input are these days). Just 1 missed Parry (or from Falter or Evade), and I get hit in the face by Hit Monkey crits and KOed.
Have anyone find an affective counter or strategy?
And advice would be appreciated 😊

Professor X also works.
Void works well too. H.M. Basically won't heal the entire fight so just watch out for the falter timer. A little slow, but very doable.
Haven't tried with Moleman yet, but that should go pretty well too.

Go into frenzy
Game over
As a side note: there’s a lot of stuff going on in this fight plus strikers—maybe save all of this for when the servers & game engine get a full upgrade?

Once he gets to 25 charges (one sp1), he can't miss or be evaded, and his falter saved me in almost every fight.
The only thing is, I wouldn't recommend using the striker. It did some weird stuff with his charges, and I preferred Professor X to go into Mind Control.

@Sw0rdMaster - Thank you very much for the advice and the videos too, it help a lot, I don't have Pro X, but do have a 5* MM.
Also have no idea why people would disagreed with your comment, strange.
@Lpoo - A very good point, really appreciated the understanding, from the msgs below, I think I have Arch and MM in 5* that might have a chance. I also have Warlock, I did try him first (as I thought he would do well in control regen), but I wasn't skill enough like to @GroundedWisdom , so got owned by Hit Monkey
As for champs, I'm still on a hunter for Nick, Pro X, Wol, BWDO (5* or higher). I also need to up Apo when I get enough ranking materials.
@DrZola - Wisdom as always, I did feel like I had quite a feel dex input issues, so it might be a good idea to wait to see if we get any new hot fix, there are still time hopefully.
Just want to thanks everyone for the great advice, really appreciated it. Based on the feedback and my current roster, I think it will give MM and Arch a good try.
So yeah, Prof X and Nick are also very good options for this reason ..
