[MapleStory SEA] Duo Black Mage ft. VanarisDB and Whis

Engaging Black Mage with a Kanna friend who has shown me more admiration and respect than I deserve after the successful run with Moo. While he is very new to Kanna and while we took several runs to get it right, it's amazing at how he picked things up so fast especially considering that this is only his 15th run against this boss, be it full squad or duo.

Kanna is undisputedly the best class in the game and makes the boss fight easier for the team on top of his own excellent damage output. Long binds meant we could engage Phase 1 longer before disengaging, Conjuring Stone meant that we could coordinate our bursts for more reliable output and Bellflower Barrier helps with consistent damage boost which is especially noticeable during off-burst periods (though my buddy Whis here needs to remember to plant the barriers more often without prompts). Kanna can also heal teammates when they are low on health and is excellent at Phase 3 with foxfire protection and excellent mobility via fast teleportation and several up jump skills.

Once again we're making use of BTS Swan Dream Title (50AF) and event Deity Potion (30AF) to boost our Arcane Force enough to get a 10% final damage advantage by pumping 5 levels of Arcane Force in hyper stats to make our total Arcane Force 1455. I can never get tired of engaging this boss but my mental stamina in game will need some work as I often start zoning out and being careless, making mistakes after some time in Phase 3.

I apologise for the lack of audio, my drivers were updated and I failed to notice the change in settings on my recording software prior to the run. Nevertheless, enjoy the video if you still like to watch the gameplay!

Whis - 275 Kanna
VanarisDB - 275 Dual Blade
