Here is the Faux Hollows solver

I would like to mention that while the Fights are practically just upscaled, they're also scaled to Minimum iLevel. Because of this the current Unreal has surprised a lot of people by how tight it can be, at the least every single Group I ended up in

[@danthefool21]

I haven't even finished the MSQ yet but I'm loving the videos you are making.

[@TheNastyNamazu]

Thanks

[@gsdlmj3450]

Hey Nasty, I like the filter you used on this with the ... crinkly paper effect? It reminds me of the old Wii game Little King Story and it fits your aesthetic idk

[@KariArisu]

Just FYI Faux and Fox are pronounced differently.

[@techdeth]

Faux rhyms with "go" lmao

[@drbiohazmat]

Wait, is it actually pronounced like Fox? I assumed it was like faux as in false/artificial. The amount of times this game has shown me a word that I think is said one way but is actually another would have me experiencing alcohol poisoning if it were a drinking game

[@TheNastyNamazu]

No, I believe it's pronounced how you think it is, but because the npc is a literally fox people just say fox instead. I used to say it as faux, but overtime I started say fox out of habit because that's how I would hear others say it.

[@riaglitta]

Nah, you have it right, I still say "(foe) hollows" - I think they went hard on a wordplay here that also just can be frustrating lol

[@femthingevelyn]

it depends on if you thing the Faux is meant to share an ending with Hollow or if you think it's a pun with the fox NPC it's attached to.

[@soldierorsomething]

Oooh, i always thought that unreal would be super hard content so i stayed the hell away from them :D (I have only cleared GOLBEZ EX and ZEROMUS EX in EW)

[@TheNastyNamazu]

That's understandable especially since it's in the high-end duty section with savage and ultimate, but yeah they're usually not that bad since they are just older fights.
Like right now it's Thordan which is significantly easier than both Golbez and Zeromus as 80% of the fight is either stack or spread

[@omensoffate]

@@TheNastyNamazuzeromus is leagues easier than thordan lol

[@MrDinosaur25]

Yeah…. Now I see why I never done this I’m not into high end rading big shame I like the idea I don’t like the stress from groups

[@TheNastyNamazu]

So it really just depends on the fight because for the most part extremes aren't that bad. Like when the current unreal came out we took a party of people that knew nothing about the fight and got through 80% of the fight.
In fact, if you did want to give it a try then now is the best time because if you just go as a melee you have very little responsibility as the only scary role to do is healer/ranged because of towers.

[@riaglitta]

I hear that - if you want though, you can even go "practice" unsynched, even solo, in the extreme version of the fight, to see the mechanics without danger of dying - just like, don't do damage and see the cycles :) I've been avoiding a lot of high end raiding since coming back a year ago, but I like unreal because I know the fights from way back when. :)
