Royal Jelly
Best bet if you are 2 or 3* is to do a group run. You could try setting up one from your friends list or start an open party and cross your fingers for a 5* experienced person.
I have carried so many barely 2* people through jelly palace its insane. Good source of heat for me and you get revived without using energy.
Hey Hong,
I will be on in a little bit (about 8:00 p.m. Central time). If you add me (ign. Onetime) I will do at least one run with you to help out.
Also will help you any other time I do Jelly, since I know how hard it can be.
Current JK equip:
FOV ASI VH, Gran Faust CTR mecium, Acheon ASI medium
Polaris ASI VH
Electron Vortex CTR high
Any other Jelly based weapon
Along with BTS, and either Skolver or Vog set/combo.
Anyways if you would like my help just add me andI will see you soon :)
Onetime
get a toxic vaporizer. keep him poisoned. I'd say 2 or 3 combos with your weapons and then a toxic bomb.
You could probably do it with a toxic needle too if you have one...don't expect damage, but that's not goal of it.
If you're 2-3*, the gear I recommend you get for this sort of mission is either of:
Helm: Wolver, Cobalt, Chromalisk, Dusker, Solid Cobalt
Armor: Wolver, Cobalt, Chromalisk, Dusker, Solid Cobalt
Sword: Tempered Calibur, Nightblade
Other: Poison type bomb, Graviton (any one will do), fire type bomb, Shadowtech (MK II)
Shield: Bristling Buckler, Defender, Twisted Targe, Great defender
Any mix of these should help. I managed it first with a Chromalisk suit, a wolver cap, a graviton, a Bristling buckler, and a Tempered Calibur.
Then I soloed it no deaths with a Dusker Set, a Graviton and a Tempered Calibur.
Belt should contain: Health caps, poison vials, fire vials, curse vials.
My strategy:
Charge bomb before you stand on the button. Run in front of the crowd, plant the bomb, then ignore them. Charge the sword as you run around the crowd straight to JK. Hit him when he's open, then hit him with any of your vials. Only use ONE curse per damage stage, for better damage spread.
Avoid the smaller jellies, and stay around the centre of the map. Charge your sword and hit him constantly, but be sure it's safe before you attack. Shield bump your way out if you get surrounded. Make sure to hit him with whatever vials you can when you need them.
When he eventually turns pink, dodge the polyps and hide in a corner to avoid his attack, or circle the room away from his attacks (It helps for this if you can read his movement patterns.)
Now you'll have to get in and attack him with your charge attacks as many times as possible before he turns pink again. From then on in, you just have to deal as much damage as possible in a single shot while taking as little as possible yourself.
That's how it works for me anyway.
If you are looking for tips...look up videos of 2* JK no death solos. I guarantee you there are at least two of them out there (one of prenerf JK and one of the current JK).
If you are looking for insanity....look up "Proto Royal Jelly". Full 0* gear...and you don't need anyone in your party to carry you either.
I use a Fiery Vaporizer MKII to keep deploying fire. I used friends/guildies to hurt JK and defeat Polyps. I throw vials to help as well. Poison is only really good in JK and Arena's and I find fire more useful.
Attack it a lot. Try not to die. Don't attack it when it is pink and spinning. Hit it with fire/poison/curse whenever you can.
