For a moment I wasn't sure one-shotting Kang-Jin Star was possible in NG+++ while also going no damage. I tried a few different methods and most got her health bar down to almost nothing but not quite zero, and most of them ended up catching a bit of lightning damage.
The idea here was my first idea which I wanted to avoid as it isn't as cool as other ideas I had, but in the end this is the one I went with. This is a true one-shot with no damage as the boss takes no damage prior to the hit, which is the hardest part to achieve in one-shot runs when you use the Pluck of Many duplicates to make it happen. I don't think it's a 'one-shot' when the boss has already taken a bunch of damage from minions before the final hit. To me, one-shot is ONE-shot aka one single attack to do the job... and here we get exactly that.
BUILD:
Jingubang staff
Weaver's Needle
Gore-Eye Daoist
Yaksha Armor set
Curios: Beast Buddha x 3, Gold Button, Auspicious Lantern
Gourd: Multi-Glazed Gourd with Breath of Fire & 3 xTiger Relic soaks
Buffs:
Gore-Eye Daoist damage buff
Immobilize (while she's in the middle of her first attack for max dmg boost)
Loong Aura Amplification Pellet (more attack/crit etc)
Gourd drink (last sip for biggest damage boost)
Septenary Heartfire Pill (to reset spells for a second Pluck of Many spell)
Cloud-step (Breath of Fire & Auspicious Lantern damage buff)
Profit!
Did I mention I absolutely LOVE this game?
