How to Evade Akantor's Charge - A Short Tutorial

[iKd0tP]

akantor is actually fun lol :p free 36000z then again, can be a long fight :o

[hardcolossus]

can you dodge it while you have your weapon out? it seems to be charging right in front of me and i don't have time anymore to make that jump..?

[ShimmerArc]

@hardcolossus Actually, you can. But not while it's charging from 2 rolls or more away. If it happens to charge while you are in front one of its claws, a well-timed roll will avoid getting hit.

[hardcolossus]

@ShimmerArc

yeah figured, i jst finished the quest with no pots left. thanks for the guides shimmer!

[ShimmerArc]

@hardcolossus You're welcome. :)

[funkywarlord]

LOL nice epic the last one.

[bien1234567891]

Nice Final posing!!!! hahaahah thanks ofr the tips..^__^

[Dragoon3600]

I love the akantor smile with your wave at the end!!

Epic!!

[TheArcanaEnds]

I had trouble with his charge because I'm at least a reasonable distance but then I move in close and he charges straight at me. I think its best to stay in that spot and wyvern dodge past his arm from now on.

Forgot he was slow and will react a bit slower thats how I die so easily :X thanks for the dodge guide.Oh and the last thing is that If the bow was the best weapon wouldn't it make the game unbalanced. Because someone claimed that its the best weapon when it depends on the player.

[ShimmerArc]

@TheArcanaEnds That depends on how you define best. If you mean best for speed kills, the bow pales in comparison to the other weapons. As far as I can remember, bows excel at killing Rajangs, but fails to be faster than other weapons, eg hammers.

[TheArcanaEnds]

@ShimmerArc Like the best overall (i.e better than Greatswords when GS's can and I think Headlock if you have the right skill I forgot the name and Hammers can KO and have insane raw) SNS is a balanced weapon and the best one I see is the Shining Wyvern Blade that I can make. Dual Swords have demonization, its like giving your swords steroids. I think all weapons have their drawbacks not just one because that would be pretty unfair.

[AncientAkantor56]

@ShimmerArc When the akamu screams into rage mode how do you avoid the lava spurts that come out of the ground? cool epic screen shot though.

[ShimmerArc]

@AncientAkantor56 Just manuever slightly to the left (Akantor's right) of its front. If the first spurt is directly in front of Akantor, hold ur ground. If the first spurt is slightly to Akantor's left (ur right), run to the spot directly in front of Akantor as the second one will come up slightly to its right (ur left). :)

[AncientAkantor56]

@ShimmerArc I knew it, i just wasent sure thanks a lot! :)

[drksrd]

Can it be avoided when he does it why im directly under him? I Just cant find a way to avoid it..

[ShimmerArc]

@drksrd If you are directly in front of it, it is impossible to avoid getting hit. So the best way to avoid having to go thru' that nasty scenario is to avoid getting into situations like that. =)

[drksrd]

@ShimmerArc

thanks alot. slayed it wif some1 already. can the tail be cut? My uncle said that its tail can only be cut when its at 30% life.

[ShimmerArc]

@drksrd Not sure what are the percentages are, but yes, you can cut the tail.

[drksrd]

@ShimmerArc

It definitely looks cute when it falls and the tail flies.

[deeanthony09]

that screen shot was so cool.its like he was about to eat him

[DARKSONIC453]

[ShimmerArc]

xD Thanks Dash. It's from Vanaesa Mae , a violinist from Singapore. :)

[DashXero]

Nice.

I especially like the way you edited that part at the end (I really love the pause...). It was hilarious. Seriously, I haven't had a laugh like that in a LOOOOONG time.

Thanks.

[baragon84]

thx this saved my ass many times

[ShimmerArc]

Ur welcome. :D

[sagadude5]

hell yeah finally! this has been the hardest thing for me for the akantor thank you!

[ShimmerArc]

No problem saga !

[Thiefcopy]

I have always just dove before he hit me and dodged it nearly every time, now I at least know a more technical way....

Oh, and I loved the ending :D

[ShimmerArc]

Yay ~! :D

[ShimmerArc]

No problem. :)

[GiddyPinata]

Sweet, this was at my suggestion/begging right?

[ShimmerArc]

Partly. :P Guess I'l need to credit u for that ! xD

[GiddyPinata]

Yay I'm famous :D

[Sverigeking13]

wow people actually need a guide for this? if you need to look this up and apply it for the first time YOU SUCK AT THIS GAME

[ShimmerArc]

Chill dood. People learn at their own pace. Besides , evading Akantor is kinda tricky the first few tries or so. :)

[Sverigeking13]

People should obviously figure out that TRYING is easier than wasting flash bombs on him every time. It aint that hard if you couldn't figure it out you should quit this game.

[GiddyPinata]

OOOHHH, so that's what the sbb are for! I thought you were trying to bomb Aka with it, and it would somehow stop it in its tracks. Lulz @ my stupidity.

[ShimmerArc]

Ahaha... just a fun trick. LoL. xD

[ISpearYu]

same, i tried to hit it with the bomb, and it just went through it and i died

then i got upset, so i quit

[GiddyPinata]

Lol hypocrite

[ISpearYu]

Thanks for the video!

Really helped me, and a question

in Mhfu, will the stuff i have from mhf2 transfer over, like my Rajang armor becoming true golden, and same for crimson fatalis?

[ShimmerArc]

Nope. I dont think so. Since True Golden is made using HR9 Rajang mats. LoL ~ But they will be carried over tho'. Just not upgraded. xD

And ur welcome ! :)

[ISpearYu]

w8, so there is hr 6 rajang armor and hr 9 rajang armor?

DAMN!!!

[ShimmerArc]

Yup. And HR9 Rajang is already Gold when non-raged and goes into SuperSaiyan mode when its rage ( aka electrical coat ). LoL.

[ShimmerArc]

Raged *** Aiks typo.

[ISpearYu]

I...hate...rajang

crap, i needa remake all of my armors...in hr9 form

Crimson fatalis is gonna be the hardest for me

[ShimmerArc]

LoL. xD Good luck then !

[craighunter666]

Well i usualy flash but the times i have 'superman' jumped i seem to get caught, you have showed me why now Shimmer :)

5/5

[ShimmerArc]

Thanks craig. :D
