managed to defeat dullahan today without taking a single loss soul/himes used were andromeda, frey, sol awakened, SR artemis and anteros funny thing about dullahan after you stun her when rage mode is over, she uses an attack that deals large damage and refreshes all ability's of your soul/himes and i had 2 super potions left thus i managed to win, now to just do the easy 5 missions and 10 points earned this week
.....sweet jesus, it took forever for me to figure out that barriers work against Dullahan's instant kill o.o
barrier doesnt prevent instant kill. but it does block a portion of that that 90% hp dmg ability. also Eros has an ability to block 1 affliction. overall shes great to have for this event.
the game is designed to give application to specific SSR abilities, so this kinda make sense. an SSR without a useful ability would just be a glorified SR.
Strictly speaking, barriers don't prevent the effect from kicking in. But I've had people occasionally survive with minimal HP. The interface doesn't handle that well so it doesn't update properly, so I'd move ahead to next turn, notice something's off, then hit reload to see 'oh, <insert hime> is still alive?'. So something was up, but I couldn't quite be sure what.
In today's run, I had the effect land on Sol and proc with a Tiamat barrier up. I reloaded and saw that Sol survived with exactly 750 HP remaining. So I'm suspecting that the instant kill effect is not so much 'set HP = 0' or something like that, but more a 'inflict 100% HP damage' that functions similarly to the other 'inflict X% HP damage' stuff we've seen.
Can someone update this thread with info about Crom? It can't be found in past GO information.
