Chapter 566 - I Won’t Let You Test Your Luck
When the first boss fell, their question was finally answered. Unrivaled Super Hottie had actually tanked the first boss by relying on skill alone to dodge attacks and reduce the damage that he received.
His na didn’t stand out in the various statistics, but the participating players all recognized his skill by now. With Unrivaled Super Hottie’s equipnt, it was already incredible to be in the average group of players.
Moreover, for him to be able to keep dodging for the entirety of the boss fight ant that he still had energy to spare. It wasn’t his limit.
The players in Happy Sheep’s team stood around in small clusters, whispering amongst each other about Unrivaled Super Hottie. Everyone even forgot to care about what the first boss dropped.
Unrivaled Super Hottie was as calm as ever though. After beating the boss, he smashed the gear and turned to face everyone: “Continue?”
“Continue...” Happy Sheep replied. He had quietly picked up the boss drops and showed it to everyone in the team chat, but no one seed to care. At least three people could use the equipnt dropped, but none of them had replied to his ssage.
On their way to the second boss, no one held anymore doubts about Unrivaled Super Hottie. Right now, they only had one thought on their minds: If he can play the role of main tank in a dungeon like Tomb in the Sky with his current equipnt, what would happen if we gave him better equipnt? What would he be like then? Would we be able to completely clear Tomb in the Sky?
This was the embodint of why the tank was the core of a team. With just an upgrade for one player, the entire team could reach a completely different level. As a result, every team prioritized training the tank. The faster the tank beca stronger, the faster the team would grow.
Happy Sheep’s team didn’t need to train a tank. A powerful tank directly dropped into their laps. His equipnt currently limited his strength, but once he upgraded his equipnt, the impact such a tank would provide to the team was unimaginable!
Their path to the next boss verified their thoughts. Even though Happy Sheep still led the team, their strategy would always change a little because of Unrivaled Super Hottie’s performance. The change would initially frighten everyone, similar to their first ti fighting the four stone statues, but after getting used to it, their fights beca easier and more efficient.
Second boss.
Third boss.
These two boss fights were virtually the sa as the first boss. Unrivaled Super Hottie continued to make up for his lacking equipnt with his skill. After defeating the three bosses, everyone looked at the ti. They finally realized why Unrivaled Super Hottie said “It’ll be more efficient with .” The ti they had used to beat these three bosses was much faster than their previous runs.
After clearing away the mobs, they finally reached the fourth gear.
“How about it? Will anyone lend so equipnt to use?” Unrivaled Super Hottie asked after clearing away the mobs.
Everyone was a bit startled. Shortly afterwards, they recalled that Unrivaled Super Hottie had said that he would need to borrow better equipnt for a few of the bosses.
“Did he say that for the fourth boss?”
“I think so?”
“He did. I rember what he said. Besides the fourth boss, he also said the final boss.”
“Not just those. There’s more. Didn’t he also ntion the fifth boss? I rember him talking about two bosses in a row?”
Everyone muttered to one another. Because they looked down on Unrivaled Super Hottie at that ti, they hadn’t paid too much attention to his words. Quite a bit of ti had passed and they had long since forgotten his words.
“I’ll lend you my equipnt!” Seven Blossom Leaves happily stepped forward. All of his equipnt belonged to him. They weren’t borrowed from the guild storage, so it could be traded. Guilds would always invest in their tanks to win them over.
Seeing how Seven Blossom Leaves was once again being a kind person, the players with a good relationship with him were sowhat nervous. After all, borrowing equipnt wasn’t a trivial matter. How long had they known Unrivaled Super Hottie? Besides his shaless na and extraordinary skill, they knew nothing else about him. What if he was a scamr? What if he used this type of thod to cheat equipnt from others?
Many players ca to this conclusion. When they thought again more carefully, Unrivaled Super Hottie had only been with them for three bosses. If he cheated them of an entire set of equipnt, it would be a low risk, high return plan. Even though they had never heard about this type of scamming strategy, why couldn’t it be the first of its kind?
They couldn’t say this in public, so they privately ssaged Seven Blossom Leaves urging him not to trust in this stranger.
But Seven Blossom Leaves objected.
“With his skill, why would he need to scam for equipnt?” Seven Blossom Leaves argued.
“That’s the type of thinking he wants you to have!” His friends warned.
Seven Blossom Leaves stubbornly clung to his belief. His friends continued to warn him, but he had already completed his trade with Unrivaled Super Hottie.
“I’ll give you my equipnt for you to use!” Unrivaled Super Hottie handed over his lackluster equipnt to Seven Blossom Leaves.
“Okay!” Seven Blossom Leaves took the equipnt. In the blink of an eye, Seven Blossom Leaves and Unrivaled Super Hottie looked as if they had traded places.
The doubtful players had their hearts leap into their throats. The trade had already been completed. If he was a scamr, he would directly leave the team to without wasting any ti.
But Unrivaled Super Hottie went forward and touched the gear.
Fourth boss, start!
Why did Unrivaled Super Hottie suddenly need better equipnt for the fourth boss? No one questioned this issue because, after seeing how he handled the previous bosses, they knew why he wouldn’t be able to for this fourth boss.
The fourth boss was a summoner. The summoned spirits were its faithful servants and prioritized their master’s safety over their own lives. To put it into gaming terminology, these summoned spirits had the sa target as their boss. Whoever the boss had aggro on would be whoever these spirits had aggro on.
As a result, the main tank would be surrounded by many monsters at a ti.
If Unrivaled Super Hottie continued to use his low-grade equipnt, he would instantly fall.
Because these summoned spirits didn’t have their own aggro stat, no matter how fiercely they were attacked, they would still only attack the boss’s target. Thus, in order to pull them apart, only Provoke, Roar, or similar type skills would work.
After using these skills and pulling them away, they would hurry and attack.
This section of the dungeon required a lot of work from every mber of the team. The knights had to have fast reaction tis. If they were too slow and the summoned spirits attacked too many tis before acting, the tank would die. The DPSers had to have fierce firepower. This required a certain level of equipnt. When the summoned spirits ca out, they needed to imdiately send out a heavy barrage. After all, the Knight’s monster-pulling skill would only last a few seconds. In these few seconds, the summoned spirits needed to die.
For such a high requirent fighting thod, Unrivaled Super Hottie’s original equipnt wouldn’t have been good enough. Everyone would need to play perfectly in order to ensure that he did not die. As soon as the summoned spirits ca out, they would need to pull them imdiately. When the skill effect ended, the summoned spirits needed to be dead. Otherwise, a few scratches would hit Unrivaled Super Hottie and he would be dead.
But with Seven Blossom Leave’s equipnt, there was more room for error. When they pulled the spirits away, they could be a bit slower because he could hang on for awhile longer. Even if not all of the spirits died after the effects ended, he would be able to tank a few hits.
After understanding this point, the players in Happy Sheep’s team felt a bit embarrassed. They felt like the reason Unrivaled Super Hottie needed better equipnt to survive wasn’t because of him, but because he didn’t think they would be able to play perfectly...
Even though they understood this, there was nothing they could say because a perfect fight was too difficult. Everyone knew what to do in theory, but actually doing it was an entirely different matter. In the past, when their team didn’t have good enough equipnt, they relied on luck for this part. Every ti the spirits ca out, whether or not they would succeed depended on luck.
As their equipnt beca better, the tank could survive longer and their damage output increased. This part no longer beca a big problem.
But Unrivaled Super Hottie’s originally equipnt would be a challenge of luck. Switching equipnt was done for their sake!
But they could just switch out the tank! If Seven Blossom Leaves tanked, they would pass all the sa. Seven Blossom Leaves lending his equipnt to Unrivaled Super Hottie made the more pessimistic players worry. Only when the boss ca out did they finally relax.
After wearing Seven Blossom Leave’s equipnt, Unrivaled Super Hottie imdiately beca more carefree. He no longer dodged around as much. He just held his shield up and smashed violently at the fourth boss.
A shriek! After accumulating enough damage, the boss would summon the first wave.
“You guys don’t need to tell you what to do right?” Unrivaled Super Hottie asked.
“No need!” Seven Blossom Leaves replied.
Seven Leaves, could you not be so nice? Everyone cried.
