@11_ntv quick question.. a full sonic blow is better than sonic blow + trickblade for lower cooldown?

23M CP Shadower Solo Hard Lotus This week, after clearing Hard Lotus with nearly 15 minutes left on the timer. So I started thinking about lowering my CP and seeing if I could successfully solo with CP about half my original CP. Then I managed to do it with just 23M CP, finishing in 28 minutes. It could probably be done with even lower CP if I had the +40 ATT buff from a level 250 character. It also depends on the boss mechanics. I tried twice. The previous run failed with Lotus at only 0.4% HP, mainly because Phase 3 kept using Dark Shock Bomb (flies into the air and throws bombs 10 times) and Electric Floor, which wasted a lot of time. Here are some tips from me: In Phase 1, standing inside Smoke can let you survive 1 hit from the laser wires if you're above 90% HP (only 1 hit). Bishop's Shield works the same way. In Phases 2 and 3, try to lure Lotus into one corner of the map. On the left side, there's a chance for a floating platform to spawn right at the edge. Standing on it makes it harder for Lotus to knock you away. Just be careful not to destroy it, especially in Party runs. Electric Floor can be avoided by standing inside Smoke. Any class can do this. Just be careful not to get knocked out of the Smoke by Lotus. That's another reason why keeping Lotus in a corner is helpful. Bind is also very useful for skipping Electric Floor. You can survive one hit from Electric Floor, so if you react quickly and move to a safe spot, you'll stay alive. Dark Shock Bomb can also be avoided by standing inside Smoke or while protected by Bishop's Shield. Lotus is mostly about player skill, with a bit of luck. Finally, Shadower is an excellent class for soloing Lotus. @MaplestoryU #HyperSummerChallenge #MapleStoryN
