[PP-F09] Boss Fighting Field Trip! <<Guardian of Fire>>


Recommended Posts

"Alright we'll be starting with Ugzeke," Wulfrin said as he stepped off the warp gate. "I've got a list of bosses I'd like to take down now that I'm capable of fighting on the frontlines. I also plan to head back down to Floor 9 and kick around Cerberus for a bit. The Blazing Bite Sword Art is my next big goal for collecting, but I have to take down the weaker Cerberus first. I don't think we'll be able to get away with leveling down this time, as we will need everything we've got."

In contrast to his simple fishing get up, Wulfrin was wearing a completely closed red coat adorned with patters of phoenix feathers that almost identically matched his familiar's plumage. At his hip the new blade Icingdeath rest in its ornate black scabbard. from where the cross guard met scabbard, a slow moving mist seemed to pour out, like that of dry ice. Wulfrin had only used the blade a handful of times at this point, but was very impressed with how keen its diamond edge was. Today it would get put through it's ultimate test. This could likely be the last chance Wulfrin got to practice with it before the raid, and he wanted to be ready.

"Anyway," Wulfrin continued. "The first will be Ugzeke. Then I figured Cerbie before we take on Piasuhan."

"A sound plan."  Freyd's eyes were focused on the dark elves and darker shadows of Kalanaes.  This place held many secrets and malicious memories, many of both still lingering or festering to this day. "It would be best if we keep moving," he urged them along from beneath his cowl.  Any of them who turned would note that the Whisper's appearance had changed, skin darkening as his hair did the opposite.  Unruly black became shock of tempestuous white.  A rueful grin was the only admission on the man's face as his features morphed to better suit their surroundings.  Even his clothing had taken on subtle features better suited to local fashion, though his normal garb required little to adapt.

"Ugzeke is slow, but durable and able to womp hard if he gets mad enough.  He and I go way back.  I've killed him dozens of times already, so it really shouldn't be hard to get him pissed off." Flippant in its delivery, his comment was spot on.  He'd probably slain this more more times than anything that wasn't pure fodder for a grind. 

"This way," he urged, taking them down a side passage and away from the gates.  "The tolls they charge here are exorbitant, and the guards are total assholes.  I can sneak us out through a side passage that has proven handy for smuggling supplies out to other nearby outposts."  A grimmer smirk, this time.  "Let's just say that the Dark Elves haven't always been the best neighbours."

Ciela looked at both Wulfrin and Freyd in confusion. She wouldn't admit it to them but they were basically speaking gibberish to her. She knew as long as Freyd was here, there wasn't any reason to be a-freyd. She chuckled to herself at the pun.

Determined to stick close to Freyd and Wulfrin, she was careful not to wander off. She knew that staying together was the best way to navigate this unfamiliar place, and she was more curious than concerned about what lay ahead. What would they run into, who would they meet?

"So, Ugzeke—is he like the other creatures we’ve faced on past quests? I just want to be ready, you know, in case I’m about to get smacked around", She chuckled awkwardly and quietly. Her thoughts turned to the challenges ahead, but rather than feeling apprehensive, she felt a sense of anticipation. Whatever came next, she was ready to face it alongside her friends.

Violet Cracked her knuckles, a skewer roll sticking out of her mouth. "Well, at least I know this is gonna be eventful." she said dryly, looking at freyd with an amused look. "With how often I've heard of you beating down ol' Ugzeke, I'd imagine this would be pretty old hat for you huh Freyd? Don't think I've fought either of them, though, so this should be a brand new experience on my end." She swallowed the rest of the food, a satisfied sigh escaping her throat. "Between all of us, this should be a cakewalk, yeah? Ciela, this is gonna be your first actually challenging fight, so I'd suggest being cautious okay? Even if you've got better MIT than both me and freyd, that doesn't mean you want to be taking any of these hits from either of these guys."

Violet held out a bag towards Wulfrin, a grin on her face. "You should probably buff up now before we go and fight these guys, yeah? I know it'll make cerbie a bit boring, but its better safe than sorry!" inside the bag was another skewer roll, a Damage Potion, and a MIT potion. "The roll is pretty tasteless, but its gonna give you a boost in damage, same with the Liquor. The other potion is for MIT, since it looks like that's the one area you're kinda lacking in"

"Yeah I took a big hit to my mitigation," Wulfrin said in between bites and gulps of his given consumables. "I had a set of Light Armor chilling in my inventory from forever ago that had Fireproof on it. Unfortunately it was only tier one so I opted to make it a tier less item that I can swap out in the event of superheated bosses or floors. It boosts my evasion so I hope that's enough to keep me alive. I mainly have to worry about AoEs, but I do have a more durable armor set to wear for raids. Still a mitigation drop but not near as bad."

Wulfrin overlooked the sprawling Dark Elven city that they were going to traverse. He felt exposed. Up until now he had had decent enough mitigation to afford to take the occasional hit. Now he couldn't afford that luxury. For now he'd play it safe and allow the tanks to do their thing. Freyd would likely fill that roll today, as Wulfrin felt Ciela might not be able to handle the field bosses attacks.

"Let's get started then," Wulfrin said as he scarfed down the last of his consumables. "Lead on Freyd."

Ciela glanced at Freyd, a hint of resignation in her voice. "So, I guess you're going to handle this guy? I’m not sure how much help I’ll be here—might have to take the backseat again." She mentally prepared herself for what was ahead. With a reluctant sigh, Ciela followed Freyd toward the entrance to the Underdark, the usual battleground for his clashes with Ugzeke. She loathed the darkness; Wulfrin often complained about the lamp she insisted on keeping lit while she slept.

As they moved deeper into the shadowy caverns, every little sound sent a jolt of anxiety through her. When the ground started shaking, Ciela exchanged looks with Wulfrin, Freyd, and Mina. In the distance, she spotted the hulking figure of Ugzeke, and a wave of dread washed over her.

The tremors grew stronger as they approached, the ground shaking under Ugzeke's colossal weight. Summoning all her strength, Ciela unleashed a powerful sword art, aiming it directly at the troll. But as the attack connected, Ugzeke remained unscathed. Damn it. "That’s all I’ve got! I can’t hurt him much." Ciela exhaled in frustration, stepping back from the towering troll.

"Give it a bit," Wulfrin said as he pat Ciela's armored shoulder. "If you can't damage him stack up some effects like stun, delay, or even shatter."

Wulfrin drew his blade and made a run at Ugzeke. To prove a point, he slammed the pommel of his blade into the back of the troll's head. The giant staggered and stumbled. Wulfrin mainly was doing it as a precaution. He knew Ugzeke would likely ignore their little party, but there was the slimmest chance their attacks would not go unnoticed. That and Freyd could chunk the beasty's hit points, at least in theory anyway. Wulfrin landed back on the ground and let out a sharp whistle. Solaris was the size of a housefly compared to the giant troll, but his talons still left a lasting mark on the troll's hide.

"This will be a cake walk," Wulfrin said, slightly over confident. "HIt him hard and fast before that rage kicks in!"

Violet shrugged at Freyd's comment about the dark elves being problematic neighbors. "I try to steer clear of this floor, honestly. This place is a little too dark for my liking, you know?" she sighed, looking through her menus with a frown. "And Wulfrin, I really do suggest getting some better MIT options, If Ugzeke decides to slam all of us, you're going to be the one hurting the most." Speaking of Ugzeke, the giant field boss had apparently decided to go ahead and spawn, Wulfrin and Ciela both immediately charging in to try and knock him down to size.

Violet let out a whistle as she looked up at the massive ogre, a feral smile crossing her face. "Shit, is that what the big guy looks like?" she flicked ember, looking over at Freyd, amused. "You're telling me you fight this guy on the regular? Wonder if its AI remembers you... that'd honestly be pretty neat if I'm being honest!" She pulled Ember close to her chest, before hurling it forward, the weapon glowing white-hot as it cut through the naturally tough skin of the field boss, Ugzeke letting out a frustrated roar as it attempted to catch the bladed fan. A few moments later, just like clockwork, Ember landed in her outstretched hand. "There we go! I think I'm getting the hang of using these things!"

"Don't sweat it, Ciela.  Wulfrin's got the right idea, and Mina's the really ass-kicker in our party.  I just quote elven poetry at the mobs until they get really mad and focus all their hate on my poor pronunciation."  A smirk threatening to grow into a proper Cheshire grin graced the left side of his lips as Mina moved in, ready to try in her new toy.  Fan and flare all in one, it suited her personality well, though he still struggled at grasping the physics of how the thing function as they did.  

"The Underdark's not so bad, once you get used to it," he replied, chuckling slightly at their guiding light's distaste for darkness.  How could one exist without the other?  Should light be fond of that which enables it to shine?  "And there's a certain brutal honesty to the way things work down here.  Assume it wants to eat you, kill you, possibly take your stuff, also maybe all of the above, and not in the order anyone would want to ponder for too long."

Suppressing a cheer when Mina womped their opponent, it wasn't exactly smart to make more noise than necessary down here.  But Freyd was genuinely pleased to see his friend enjoying herself and venting a little built up tension at the same time.  "Nice one!  If you want a little background about prodding mobs to see whether or not they can remember things, this dude's probably not your best candidate.  Uggy's not really all that alert, at the best of times.  But Wulfrin could fill you in about Abdullah.  I've been prodding that arrogant ass for a hell of a long time."

Weaving his way wide to the west, gaining vantage and a proper launching point from a nearby ledge, Freyd hurled himself high where Mina struck low.  Their combined assaults nearly knocked off half the mob's abundant health in their opening salvo.  

"Oh, and remind me to fill you in about the red lily and her Sundered Spire," he added in a notably less jovial tone.  "Mobs with memories can have more serious consequences than we all might want to consider."

Ciela stood amidst the chaos, her ears tuned to the words of encouragement from Wulfrin, Freyd, and Mina. Her focus sharpened as Wulfrin suggested to shatter the boss. She nodded firmly, her lips curling into a determined smile. Perfect. Something I can actually do.

She tightened her grip on her shield and her blade. Drawing in a deep breath, she sprang forward with practiced precision and grace. Her movements were fluid yet forceful, each step closing the gap between her and the hulking troll. At the last moment she slid through the troll's legs now standing behind Ugzeke. With a powerful and steady strike she activated her sword art at just the right moment. Though her strike was clean, her blade barely carved through Ugzeke's defenses from below. Ciela's heart pounded in her chest, Damn. His mitigation is high. She gritted her teeth.

Dusting herself off, Ciela took a step back to assess the damage. Though she hadn't done much damage, she masked her disappointment with a touch of humor. "Alright guys," she called out, her voice carrying toward the group. "That last attack? Totally got him on the ropes." Her tone was dripping with sarcasm, accompanied by a playful chuckle. Hoping the levity would keep spirits high, after all when all of them got together, they usually kept it fun.

"You're doing great honey!" Wulfrin cheered on his beloved as they continued to swarm the giant like a bunch of gnawing gnats. "Keep up the shatters and we'll be done in no time at all!"

Wulfrin's blade was engulfed in the furious light of his strongest sword art as he closed the distance between himself and Ugzeke in an instant. In keeping with the gnawing gnat analogy crawling around in his head, Wulfrin used the momentum of his swings and the countless ripples across the idle giant's body. Each strike left massive gashes in Ugzeke's hide. Wulfrin came to rest on the ground in a three point landing sliding back a few feet from his landing point. With a quick glance at his target's HP bars, and Wulfrin could tell they were nearing the end. With any luck they could fell the giant before it unleashed its attack.

"Freyd! Mina!" Wulfrin called out to grab the attention of his fellow frontliners. "Think we can fell this guy before he goes berserk? If not you'd better be ready to take a hit Freyd!"

"Haha! I wouldn't know anymore, if I'm being honest!" she drew her fan, a Cheshire smile on her face. "Night Vision kinda renders the 'Get used to it' part a little moot, don'tcha think? But even if I had a reason to be afraid now, it'd be gone with you three standing here! Besides, what kind of light would I be if I left a single shadow behind?"

Regarding the idea of NPC's and bosses remembering the names and faces of players, especially Freyd terrorizing poor Abdullah over and over again, she laughed. "Sounds about right, knowing you! Poor guy probably would have a stroke dealing with your shenanigans if this were in the real world!" her non-hidden eye twinkled with mirth. "And I'm more than aware of the consequences of mobs remembering faces. Remind me to discuss that Gemini situation with you again later, there's actually been another development with that!"

As Ciela shattered the boss, she gave the girl a nod of encouragement. "That sword art is invaluable for a raid, I'm glad you have it in your arsenal." she nodded her head at Ugzeke. "For enemies like him, Shatter is really good. It softens them up so that people like me, Freyd and Wulfrin can really shine! It gives you something to keep topping off on aside from the occasional howl, ya know?"

A faint glow swirled around her feet, what looked like a pool of silver shimmering around her legs. She slid her mask firmly over her face, the eerie sugar-skull patterning glinting with a soft pink light. 'Right... let's try this again.' she pulled the mask back, the confirmation making her heart beat fast.

It wasn't often she could use something like this, after all.

"Alrighty, now This probably isn't going to be as impressive as anything you can pull off, pal." she snarked, drawing Ember close as she queued up the <<Charge>> skill. "But its something that I've been trying to perfect for a while now. Still don't have the hang of it just yet, though!Ember was shimmering, the jeweled feathers radiating a silver glow that seemed to resonate with the energy pooling around her.

The silvery energy suddenly evaporated as Violet rushed forward, an icy determination in her eyes. She snapped Ember closed as she drew in close to Ugzeke, the giant troll still floundering from their rapid assault. Silver tears seemed to stream from the edge of the bladed fan, before suddenly exploding into color. "Take a good look at the colors of my Resolve, ya big Lug!"

Blue, pink, and gold flowers seemed to bloom from the molten silver, which had slowly begun to coalesce into thorned vines that bit into the trolls body, eliciting a roar of fury from it as it struggled to free itself. "If this doesn't kill him, he's gonna be damn close! NOW BLOOM!" the flowers shattered as the vines drew themselves across Ugzeke, delivering a devastating blow to the troll, and fully knocking it into the Red. A grin crossed her face as she looked over at her teammates. "One of these days, I'll perfect that!" she nodded back at Ugzeke. "There, now one or two more good n' meaty hits from us should put the fugly bastard in the ground! Sorry I couldn't get him for us"

Sliding back to assess the rest of the group's actions, Freyd's booted feet ground against the hard, dry stone as he came to a stop. A flicker of his wrist sent sneaky shadows scampering roundabout into the shadows, circling around for vantage.  It was a common tactic, the two of them acting like some sort of wolf pack to pincer a foe, pinching them for an unexpected kill.  Ugzeke was mad, which made him slippery.  He was also tough as nails and unlikely to go down easy.

"Nice hit, Ciela," he whispered, not to undermine Mina's valuable advice. "That was precisely what we needed."

Launching himself forward within a millisecond of spotting the opening, twin azure eyes bolted in like time from the opposite side.  As one, master and minion collided, a rather unfortunate troll finding itself between the two and unable to withstand the overwhelming pressure. Wulfrin's words echoed in his mind, but teamwork paired with good timing had spared him the need for any kind of hit, whatsoever.

"What do you do when an unstoppable force faces off against an immovable object?  Add a second unstoppable force.  Right, Persi?"

Ever the strong silent type, his preening little lady merely squeezed her proud slotted eyes shut in mirrored satisfaction.

  • Smash | On an MD 9-10, his attack will hit the entire party for 225 DMG, lowering everyone’s ACC by 1 for two turns.
  • Hard Hitter | <<Ugzeke’s>> attacks cannot be parried.
  • Tier Lock | For the duration of the fight, all of the participants’ stats that scale with Tier are calculated as though they’re Tier 4. [DMG/MIT/BLEED enhancements etc.]
    • This skill only locks downward. Those at Tier 1, Tier 2, or Tier 3 will still have T1, T2, or T3 stats, respectively.

"Well that's one off the list," Wulfrin chuckled. "Now the second one is gunna be... for lack of a better term, child's play. We're going down to floor 9 to put down a three headed dog. One of two steps to a fancy new sword art."

Wulfrin led the group back towards the teleport plaza and initiated the floor shift. In stark contrast to the Underdark feeling of Floor 25, Floor 9 was a volcanic hellscape. Rivers of molten rock flowed like water, changing the topography every few in game hours. The portions that were cooled were smooth and sturdy enough to stand on, though the area still remained a heat filled nightmare. Wulfrin had dressed surprisingly well for the occasion, his newly acquired armor negated most of the environmental effects in addition to his Survival skill. Truthfully, Wulfrin knew it was overkill for the day, as with the current crew, the quest mobs would be lucky to even get a turn.

The travel to Kronilt was uneventful. The dwarven city was in fact no so uneventful. Every other establishment along the central street seemed to be a tavern, each more rowdy than the rest. Supposedly there was an info broker that knew the location of Cerberus, and despite it being necessary to initiate a quest chain, refused to give the location unless you catted them up. Luckily the first tavern Wulfrin peaked his head into, he spotted the bandaged wrapped broker. You'd think as long as this quest has been around, that guy would have fully recovered by now.

"So Cerberus," Wulfrin said as he pulled up beside the injured broker. "Where can I find them?"

"South of here," The injured broker said as he nursed a drink. "Den's hidden in the mountains on the other side of the Volcanic Flats."

"Cool Thanks" Wulfrin returned to the group ready to get the show on the road. "To the Volcanic Flats"

The warm encouragement from everyone lit up Ciela's face with a bright smile. "Thanks, y'all. I really appreciate it. I’m gonna keep your words in mind the next time I feel less than adequate." She brushed a strand of hair away from her face and refocused as the hulking troll Ugzeke fell to the combined efforts of Wulfrin, Freyd, and Mina.

With the troll defeated, Ciela grinned mischievously at the mention of their next foe. "So, Cerberus, huh? Guess it’s time to become puppy chow," she snickered, her excitement bubbling up at the thought of facing the legendary three-headed beast. I wonder if he'll be as adorable as the movies and books make him out to be, she mused, half-serious.

By the time she snapped back to reality, the group had already reached their destination. The foreboding lair loomed ahead, its eerie atmosphere sending a thrill of anticipation through her. "Huh," Ciela muttered, glancing around. "Did that seem super fast to anyone else, or is it just me? I did kind of pop off daydreaming." She adjusted her grip on her sword, the energy of the team fueling her resolve. Her gaze turned to Wulfrin and Freyd, wondering what their strategy would be against a creature as iconic as Cerberus. Whatever was about to happen, Ciela was ready for the adventure ahead.

"That's the spirit, Ciela. Remember that when you hit the big leagues, yeah?" Violet had a warm smile on her face as she put away Ember, allowing the fan to click into place on her shoulder holster. "No matter how your teammates might feel, what you do is utterly invaluable to our work. As long as you continue to do your best, that's all that matters." Akame had curled up onto her shoulders, the tiny dragon chirping in delight as she nuzzled into her master's hair. Violet absently twined her fingers through her friend's tail-feathers, her smile fading slightly.

After Wulfrin led them through the warp gate, leading them to the toasty hot floor 9, a gentle smile crossed her face. "One of these days, I've gotta invite you two to my house!" she hummed, looking over to Freyd. "Freyd here has already paid me a visit there, but I other than him I don't think I've invited anyone other than my brother's guildmates and his girlfriend! It's a lot nicer than the magma-ridden parts of this floor, I think." when wulfrin mentioned that they were heading to the Magma flats, Violet tilted her head in the direction that they were meant to go. "Let's get moving then, shall we? The sooner we beat up baby Cerbie, the sooner that fighting the souped-up version is going to be possible."

Freyd merely smiled as the rest of the group bantered in the aftermath of their victory, contented by their shared achievement and the ensuing comradery.  Wulfrin went on to lay out their next steps, and what would surely prove to be an utterly devastating afternoon nap for a three-headed fire-breathing puppy dog.  Having experienced much of the content before, it seemed only fair to let others soak in the full potential of their first run-through at their own pace and choosing.  

Persi reacted to Ciela's self-deprecation and doubts before he could even say a word.  The spoopy little mongoose leaping onto the woman's shoulder to nuzzle her cheek in a way that roused confusion and admiration in equal measure.

"Mina has it right. And you must be doing okay, Ciela.  Persi never shows that kind of affection to anyone."  A quickly pointed finger guided them in the direction of the volcanic flats, Freyd silently offering himself as vanguard and scout.  "I'd also encourage you to accept Mina's offer.  She's a good cook, and and even better confidant."  Not a word he once would have considered associating with the woman, but she'd consistently proven true to her word and intentions.  The quiet compliment was well-earned and acknowledge with a brief catching of stray gazes.  

"This lot will be easy for us to carve through."  Always back to business was the Whisper, though each of them had started to see another side of him peek through from time to time.  One less focused on the absolute devastation of content, and caring more about the people by his side.
