Cerberean Sentinel - World Boss

i dont know if in this threand anyone have fighting Hauntery queen (Lunar boss) before
well hauntery queen use the same pattern of attack
but that boss use bleed
cerberean sentinel istead use armor breaking
from the past of my my-en days
i try of explain what happening when u face these bosses

the reason because this boss strike everytime a specific dd o more dds
is called with 2 words: target aggro
is a rare tipe of aggro used from the some boss of pwi

basically before the boss reach a ??% of his life he fight like a normal boss
cerberean use sporadic aoe stun and a close phy aoe
when the boss hit a precise ??% of is life
the IA select a few dds an then start hitten them with his armor breaking
is not a random aggro because he dont select a random victim from overall the dds
but only from that choosed number of dds (usually 3-4 players)
he will random hitten only those player until the end of fight with is armorbreaking
and ignoring the others dds

this sistem of aggro can became a nightmare if the predestined victims are the clerics
so for avoid this is better if some backup clerics dont do nothing until the boss use his first armorbreak
no heal, no purge, nothing, so no dd IA wont select them as a victim

after the IA make his choice each dd hitten by the axe after ressed must to go in a large space without ppls around, not to far from the boss, with a cleric with ress 11 behind them.
i named this a "sacrificed for the boss" :O
a this point the boss use kill one of the sacrifical group again and again putting himself in a confortable condition and stop moving, (infact if the boss reach his target without moving he wont moving) mean he wont come againt in the middle of the ranged dds and aoeing them
less confusione less dead peeps

nu >_< if the boss can random hit only 6 player on 40 dds
is something different from random aggro
u can call it how u want but a fight with these boss
include a different type of tactic

and i find this threatd via google
still without an adeguade answer for the question at post 1
so i have give this aswer and share my info
not much ppl can afford to make pratice
on valley 7 lunar boss >_>

No, it remains random aggro because (and you clearly didn't pick this up the first time, I pity you) a randomiser is used to decide who is going to suddenly take aggro. Get the idea? You know... randomiser creates a RANDOM target who wouldn't have stolen aggro on any other day. Look at the word.

Randomiser. See where random appears in that word. I'm sure you'll get the idea.

Even if the DDs who steal aggro remain the same people to steal aggro, they first have to be randomly picked out of all potential players. The aggro remains random.

If it hasn't sunk in yet, it never will. But I hate to say, the OP's question was answered perfectly fine, and you don't even seem to understand the concept of "random" because you seem to think that a randomiser randomly picking a random DD in a group of people killing a boss who will reset his aggro at a given point in time isn't random.

I don't understand why you have to be so condescending to non-native English speakers. If you were in a foreign country trying to communicate and provide useful information in their language, how would you feel if they nitpicked at every grammatical and punctuation error in your post, and made you feel like a dumbass about it?

I understand where Mivi is coming from. I just did this boss with her and our faction, and it hit a certain veno with said axe move at least 15 times. When it seems to hate target a certain class over and over, it may raise doubts about its "randomness".

It might be random and we were just unlucky, I don't know. I haven't taken the time to read the whole thread, but how you dissect and ridicule a foreign person's English speaking capabilities is like beating up a disabled person and laughing at them. Disgusting.

I pity you for not even having the basic etiquette to show a little respect towards fellow human beings.

Nothing random about Cerberan Sentinal. He most certainly hates venos. The two times I fought him he shot out every single veno in our faction at least 20 times each, no joke. Even my ingame wife who came by to watch and didn't even land a hit. Massive QQ from every single veno afterwards as well, not a veno in the faction who'd go near him afterwards, good times. b:chuckle

I have fought a lot of WB's. I can say this, it's possible it hates venos. I have never fought that boss but, I know for fact Dipter will only random aggro on the cleric. It is an aoe so anyone near me would be hit too. I have fought that boss 20+ times and never has it random attacked another class.

LMFAO.
This thread prompted me to encourage my faction to try this boss, wanting to see if he really did hate venos and wizards. We just tried it. You were right. xD

2 wizards, 2 venos from faction were there, plus a random veno who happened to be in Snowy Village. Shot down. Every. Single. Time. Res. Shot down. I was laughing my **** off the entire time. Even the random veno who merely watched from a hill. Shot down. One of the wizards went into town to buy some pots. Shot down. Freakin' hilarious. One time, right after I ressed, he turned and axed me. Dead again. The other veno went afk for a minute but when she returned and ressed, the boss ran ~100 yards to axe her right away. xD

At one point in time, we all agreed to stay down and see if he went after anyone else. The random veno had gotten smart and went into the air just high enough where he couldn't aggro her. He'd turn towards her every time after that, wanting to axe her, but then our barb/fist BM (not sure which was tanking as Cerebrean kept running all over the place xD) would regain aggro.

This was our 5th WB today. No other ones have showed any quirks like this where it targets a specific class. I lost a good amount of exp from all the ressing, but I laughed so hard it was worth it.
