My chars have become gods. I can take down shaolongui in 1:30 to 2:00 mins. He's probably the best critter to farm cos he drops dark matter and gold nuggets like crazy

what are your main teams stats?

I have max crystallium for everyone. Cant remember the exact stats off hand but I shouldnt be off by more than 50 points

 

 Fang: Ult pandora spear, 3 kaiser knuckles, Genji gloves. Stats are about: 24K HP, 3500 Str, 2300 Mag

Vanille: Ult Belladonna Wand: Connoiseur's catalog, 2 magistral's crest, Genji gloves. Stats are about: 21K HP, 3100 Mag, 1800 str

light: Ult Lionheart, Kaiser Knucles, Magistral's crest, Collector's catalog, Genji gloves. Stats are about: 20K HP, 2700 str, 2700 mag

 

I find that its crucial to pwn him befoire he uses his "bay"/"quake" combo which he usually does at about 2 mins into the fight. I can survive the combo but the daze caused by "bay" usually ends the fight. he uses "bay" prematurely once in a while though. I usually lose those fights because not only does "bay" cause daze, it comes off too quickly for me to swtch to "tortoise" to absorb the damage. It also seems to do 12K damage even with "protectra" and "shellra" on. I'd take "ultima" over "bay" anyday.

If you need a strategy, let me know

thanks but im not close to those stats yet, i kinda just wanted to know how much grinding is left for full stats, and its crap loads xD some of those are like 4 - 6 times my stats haha but when i get to that point i may indeed ask for a strategy :) 

Anytime man, I check this thread everyday. Shaolong guis are officially the toughest regular mobs in the game, tougher than all the bosses and probably all missions except mission 64. However, the beauty of killing them is that it doesnt take any time at all because you dont have to stagger first, cut their legs 1st or any other annoying prerequisites most other supposedly "tough" critters have. Basically, they can kill you very quickly and you can do the same to them.

Also, note that you can beat him with only max crystallium and ult weapons. Its just faster with those accessories and he's the one who drops the required materials to make those accesories anyway.
