Pretty happy with this. I wanted to drain the Macaque Chief of their health bar in encounter #1 and do so without a one-shot (youtu.be/DCAa-Q-LCb8) but in this second encounter I really wanted to do it again but with a one-hit kill.
If you didn't know, you can't kill this boss in the first couple of encounters - they vanish before you can deplete their health. So it's satisfying to at least deplete their health fully before that happens on your revenge tour at max level (342) in NG+++.
This wasn't as simple as just getting OP damage though. To do it you have to set everything up correctly. In this case, making it happen required a crit to trigger and keeping the boss away long enough to prevent a minion from chipping at their health before the one-shot (otherwise it wouldn't be a one-shot). The one thing to solve that was to run out and cloud step back, leaving a decoy to distract the boss long enough to do the Pluck of Many summon and complete the job.
Honestly I love working this stuff out, it's as much fun to me as fighting properly to style on the boss.
BUILD:
Jingubang staff
Weaver's Needle
Gore-Eye Daoist
Yaksha Armor set
Curios: Beast Buddha x 3, Gold Button, Auspicious Lantern
Gourd: Immortal Blessing with Breath of Fire & 3 xTiger Relic soaks
Buffs:
Ginseng Pellets (to build focus)
Gore-Eye Daoist damage buff
Ring of Fire spell
Loong Aura Amplification Pellet
Gourd drink
Cloud-step (Breath of Fire & Auspicious Lantern damage buff)
The rest is self-explanatory in the video.
Still loving the hell out of this game, even on the fourth playthrough!
