It would help to know where you lose. Is it always the same or random? Do you have any problem with specific Elemental Spirit? Or just Pandora?



Plutonium -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/6/2020 12:33:55)

Usually its random. Sometimes, I'll die during Lust, Wrath and once, or twice, during Pride. Also, definite K.O the one time I made it to Pandora.



Dratomos -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/6/2020 14:39:19)

Well, if it is random, it's much harder to pinpoint what goes wrong. So, I would advise to practice using individual ES fights first, before going to Gauntlet. After you can defeat them all without relying on RNG, go for Gauntlet.

As for equipment, use good Fire-Resistance -equipment when going against Lust and Darkness/Immobility -resistance on Pride. Also, ditch Ice-Scythe combo. It is not needed for this, Exalted Apotheosis with Evil element, BoA shown and DmK can handle these fine on their own.



Plutonium -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/6/2020 15:34:41)

Thanks, I'll try that.

EDIT I: Well, Dmk v2 was a bust, died during Pride. Thinking about trying Chaosweaver (with the Fire/Darkness Resist for Lust & Pride respectively), but I'm honestly ready to just throw in the towel at this point. Could bring Guest(s), but I really don't want to. I feel like Pandora (EX)'s gonna be a nightmare.



Dratomos -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/7/2020 3:28:24)

I really don't know where you fail, Do you heal on these challenges? I tried to them with your equipment and DmK v2 and I had no issues, didn't need extra potions of food.



Plutonium -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/7/2020 19:01:11)

I'll heal in between Envy, Gluttony, & Sloth if I'm low on Health/Mana.



Dratomos -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/8/2020 5:24:20)

You should heal every time and also after Pride if you have problems with this challenge. No need to make it harder since there isn't any kind of reward anymore.

Are you familiar with all the mechanics of each monster? Because with the standard BiS set up (that you have) and using DmK V2 you should have no issues with the gauntlet.
Familiarize yourself with the rotation.

Envy: easy
Greed: easy
Lust: use nuke lust. Use dragon shield on the second turn to dodge her 2 attacks
Gluttony: Just follow the rotation and have your dragon use scout, or use break will or drain essence when Gluttony is about to absorb buffs
Wrath: get the magi helm or some minus crit gear. But you should be able to win even with normal gear. Don't use blood rite obviously.
Sloth: just attack him and if he prepare to nuke using weaken/void barrier/dragon shield.
Pride: just wait out the first few turns clicking life carve/attack button. Once she has 3 stacks of superiority you can do normal stuff with corruption.



mahasamatman -> RE: Pandora's Gaunlet (post-nerf) (3/8/2020 19:49:49)

DMK2 can work, but will need a few retrys on Pride, and sometimes on Lust.
Pride is very dependent on your luck with the RNG.

Also, try bringing Artix+Nythera.

FINALLY beat Pandora's Gauntlet and got a Fragment of Ethereal Woe (7 more to go; 2 more for Elpis and 5 for Corrupted Seven Trinket), but brought Rhubarb and Maz along for the ride. Which was frustrating, because Rhubarb died at the tail end of Sloth and Max died subsequently after during the tail end of Pride.

EDIT I: I'm annoyed all over again.

EDIT II: Officially reached that Dominion of Dreams level annoyance (where I beat it once, tried that way again, failed and subsequently died every time after that) I also tried beating Pandora (EX) with BSW, twice. Got beat both times.

EDIT III: 2 Fragment of Ethereal Woe down, 6 more to go.

EDIT IV: Elpis is MINE! Gonna tackle getting The Corrupted Seven Trinket at a later date.
