As some of you might recall some time ago I killed the duke by nothing more than mere electrocution, but at the cost of about 4k CE in the process, but as I stated in that thread, I had every intention of killing the other bosses like that, and so, after all this time, I've finally gotten around to uploading my recordings of said kills, and here they are, in order of easiest-to-hardest difficulty as I determined doing each fight:

TheRoyal Jelly

and as many of you apparently couldn't think it possible here it is: The Roarmulus Twins

and finally: The Snarbolax

Yes, Snarby is in fact much harder than the twins, but not vana, sadly, I have no video of him as I have yet to successfully kill him without dying doing this :(

Maybe a sort of contest can spawn out of this depending on how many people seem interested to see who can get an upload first :P with a reward of sorts also depending on how many of you are actually interested in trying to do it. It would go simple: upload a no death haze only vana kill before I can.

Not sure what the reward for doing it would be yet though, I was thinking something along the lines of large amounts of CE (in upwards of 3k) but I'd like to see how many people are willing to try beating me to it first :P at this point I can assure you I'd be able to put forth whatever I decide to give as the reward

So go at it and argue all this stuff already :P

Holy hell that's alot of ce.

Holy hell that's alot of ce. At my current rate with mist I'd have that much in maybe twenty years even if I stopped crafting once i finished a 5* set

Nice!I'm not a bomber and I

Nice!

I'm not a bomber and I use maximum of 3 revs for Vana solo... so good luck with your mission!

Question, if you use shiver and VT, vana might be faster to kill. Continous dmg + freeze.

Also have you heard of Sick? He's pretty good at bombing, as seen here

Only 1 death, though not haze bombs exactly :)

I've seen Sick's videos....

I was even in his guild for a while there, he and Enshadu there were essentially the reasons I wanted to be a bomber at all. The constant shock/freeze isn't quite so simple alone, I can tell you that much :P the clouds don't hold up long enough for me to make it effective, but I've finally narrowed down run times after all this, and running each boss still takes less than an hour alone with those bombs, except for Vana.

Killing all of FSC AND killing vana takes right around 2 hours, perfect for someone on a typical mist run day. One of my goals for this was to effectively prove that this type of thing can be done in a somewhat reasonable amount of time, seeing as I didn't rely on friendly fire for much any of it, thus making this entirely possible for people to try should they find themselves wanting something odd to try that makes a nice challenge.

Would Venom and Ash have made

Would Venom and Ash have made RJ go down faster than VT and Ash? I'm wondering if the weakening of Venom, and the crippling of his healing, would make it a better choice than the low damage of VT. Though i admit I like how quickly all the minis died.

You know, it's a funny story actually....

The venom probably would make a faster fight, and the first time I tried it while recording that was exactly what I did. Then, after watchin that video again, I realized I was too heavily using the blast from the bombs for damage, which didn't fit right with what I was doing, so I went all the way BACK down there to do it again. The moment I dropped that first venom, I suddenly found myself wondering "I wonder how fast it would be without using poison at all..." so that's what I wound up doing, I knew healing wouldn't be a big problem, as the clouds killed anything that got near him, so as you can see the results weren't all too bad :D
