Killing the Owl

Killing the Owl

There are probably many theories on how to kill the owl, or at least a few, and I’m not saying my way is the best. That being said, many people have asked about killing the owl, and since I do it pretty much daily, I figured I’d share my approach.

First, the set up. Now I realize that not everyone has 69 leadership, so I’ll cover how I did it before then too. But for now – here is my set up.

Poison (there are better pierce poisons out there, but this is the easiest to mass produce for me)

Potion (again, better ones out there, but easiest to mass produce for effectiveness)

Other potion option (in case you’re looking for a better boost, this is the one I use if I’m going on a BC spending spree on owl, there are better ones in runic)

The most important component here is your effective pierce attack. You want it as high as possible. Your hero’s damage to the owl is your best weapon in this fight. You will not be using your hero to defend your comps.

Tip: Thanks to IF on the forums for this juicy little tidbit.  Queue something like a little walk before accepting the fight with owl to give you a few extra seconds. (don’t put poison on til the last second, you don’t wanna waste one on a random encounter) Queue the owl fight, then queue a walk to your local guild arena. You will get the fight bonus from the dummy you have there AND it will be effective during your owl fight. (this would work for iriza too). You can hit record pierce attack scores with this manoeuvre. (For as long as the devs allow this “glitch” anyhow).

The next on the list of important to-do’s is your hills skills. Bring your hippo with you. If you’ve got a set of Similian Olkgu clothing, put it on. Get yourself the elementary heart all maxed out for hills on a bracelet and equip it.  If you don’t have a 5.0 emperator, use your 5.0 pierce tali.

So here’s the set-up with the arena bonus on main

And this is the owl’s stats. (they do vary, I got lucky on this one rolling a low pierce def)

(oddly none of these little owls have a shield buff. They usually do)

So, the basic way to do this is

Pay attention to who hits owl harder, Boar or Gan (boar has the hills bonus, gan doesn’t so it’s not just about the gap in the stats – watch to see who hits harder)

#1 Main, Boar + Gan on big owl, golem on a little owl without a shield, lady defends boar

#2 Once lady is dead, cover boar with golem

#3 Now is where you use your knowledge from paying attention to who hits harder. If gan hits harder, cover him with boar. If boar hits harder, cover him with gan.

#4 When gan or boar dies, cover main with whichever is left

#5 Eventually it’ll be you and the owl. If you manage to kill him before he kills you, then pick off whatever is left of his little buddies.

And there ya go!

So that’s the straightforward way.

Another option, and this one I only do if a) there is a little owl without a shield buff, and b) Big owl’s slash def is uber-high.

Fight goes like this:

#1 Main and Gan on Big Owl, Boar and golem on little owl without shield buff, Lady covers Main (idea here is to take out one little owl with boar and golem)

#2 When lady dies, switch golem to protect boar and put boar on big owl.

#3 Follow the regular steps from above.

If you don’t have 69 authority, the set up I used was Boar, Gan, Golem, Rowan (and hippo for hills in the party but not in the fight)  Rowan takes the place of Lady for above step out.

If you have any questions, or if you want to share your own tips for killing the owl, leave a comment below and I’ll get to it as soon as possible
