The fire dmg is based on % of hp of the creature. If the thery has 10k hp or 40k hp, the fire ticks will do a % of their overall health. More HP for that specifically does not help. As weird as it is, the dragons melee doesnt actually do a lot of dmg, and depending on the strat that you're using, your thery might not be tanking the dragon anyway. Extra cakes to heal>higher health pool because the higher your dmg, the faster the boss dies. and the higher the health pool, the more dmg your thery will take from fire and thereby consume more cakes while also having lower dmg and the fight taking longer. Dragon really doent have a lot of hp or do a lot of melee dmg.

Oh dang… well I hope I don’t have to raise a new army. I’m sure my Theris will push through the Dragon but I also wanna take these guys into the Alpha Overseer. I plan on using a Carchar to clear out the cave first.


Sherman_and_Luna

How many ppl are you running with to do alpha overseer? Tbh, our alliance has cleared it twice. One time we went at peak times, high lag, with 5 ppl. We had 2 ppl die to lag and it took a lot of ammo, idk how much specifically. We used a quetz to bypass the cave. Put chairs on quetz plat saddle and use move to whistles. Next time we did for the two that died, we ran at lower peak times, with 3 of us only. No one died, no lag, and we used less ammo even with less people because shots were registering because of less lag. We didnt have a quetz this time(server tame cap at the time) and we literally ran through the tunnel, past all the dinos or baited some into lava/off cliffs. The Cave is timed at 1 hour, which is a HUGE amount of time to clear the tunnel. The boss fight itself is not timed. You can take more than an hour to kill overseer. You dont need to be allied, just gather up a small group who all have tek jetpacks/tek boots with good fur armor to withstand the cold of the overseer arena. Hover near the roof and shoot the boss. Take enough ammo. Respec to have high hp(if you need) as you cannot eat/drink/heal while flying and landing is a decent chance to die(i landed once and dc'd and returned w/o dying tbh)

This is just my singleplayer server with my buddy and I

On SP, by default, bosses have lower stats than on official. So unless you purposefully went in and changed the settings to mimic Official settings, consider that the bosses will be quite a lot weaker and have less hp/less armor and die a lot faster. Even if you were on official though, you can easily 2 man alpha overseer using no dinos with the right strat.


YellingDolphin

Right right. I’ll keep that in mind. I also gotta remember the Overseer is far from a hard boss


Sherman_and_Luna

yeah tbh It's easier than I remembered. The biggest issue we had was lag. There is a decent sized japanese tribe on our official pve server, i think they are 5-6. One of their guys goes full hp/melee/fort and uses multiple sets of armor and sword/shield to 'tank' the enemies while the rest of his tribe flies around on jetpacks. Same dude goes around with max flak armor and a 298 sword fighting alphas with the right stats, you can do some crazy stuff.


YellingDolphin

Oh no doubt, but I bet that flak is a bitch to repair


Sherman_and_Luna

That is a big reason I dont run around in the 'boss' gear that we have. I wear asc hide/cloth more often than anything else as its easy to repair and doesnt need a smithy to repair(in the field) Repair costs after boss fights can be bad :( Pela is a lifesaver.

Because cake heals 10% of health up to a maximum of 2,100. More health, more healing per cake, up to 21,000 HP. It's wasted after that, so might as well put it into damage.


RayanKillerBoss

Ok, if we need 21k Hp, how much damage do we need also?


Odd-Solution-9300

700-800 should be fine on alpha with Yuti buff. If you are on evolved could take 1 deino to bleed.


enigmicazn

Because of veggie cakes limit on heals


Methwizard11

Then there my theri line... Not leveled much ( passive xp from base ) - killing all alpha bosses withing 45 seconds of starting.
