Hurting Olga Flow (not FLOWEN)

[TeamPhalanx]

I thought most people figured out how to hurt the big guy when he's glowing and you or one of your teammates is FLOWEN, but going by what I'm seeing in battles, it seems I was mistaken. So, a quick recap:

There are 2 ways to hurt Olga Flow when it's glowing.

1) Use techniques. Out of four techniques, foie, barta, zonde, grants, one of them will hurt Olga Flow, while the others will hurt whomever is FLOWEN.

2) Use normal attacks. This part is tricky, and relatively unknown. Just like how Olga is only weak against one technique at a time, Olga will only be weak against one % type (Native, A.Beast, Machine, Dark). So, you'll want to take in weapons with varying % into the battle.

Once again, it's all about the %.

Yes, a bunch of players were trying to tell newcomers how to fight Olga Flow. It's hard to explain on a software keyboard though.

Yes, it really is all about the %. Now if I can find some hit % on some weapons, that'd be nice.

in what form is this cause ive only fought olga once and that was offline

[Stixxx]

heres a tip

blast the heck outta him with whatever you got..

when the flowen (or char posessed by flowen) fella dies use a moon and be done with it

[Hiirigazawa]

Whoever is Flowen can hurt him... Just hit him a whole bunch. Anybody who ISN'T Flowen hurts who is. Simple as that.

that is false...

i got turned into flowen and attacked him and i still got hurt

[TeamPhalanx]

Are some of the people who posted even reading my first post?

When someone is FLOWEN, you can ONLY damage Olga Flow with a certain tech or a certain % weapon.

As for killing a teammate, that won't trigger Olga Flow to turn back into its regular form.

what if a weapon has a % for each?

[TeamPhalanx]

As long as the weapon had the right % that's all that matters. For example, I use two weapons against Olga Flow. One is a RED HANDGUN that has Dark %, and the other is a L&K14 COMBAT with Native, A.Beast, and Machine %.

Also, it's a LOT faster to use the % weapons to hurt him than to use techs.

that may be true but there is usually far to much going on on the screen to safely attack(especially if rocks are falling) him plus i prefer to to hit him with techs so i can quickly get out of his range if need be

[TeamPhalanx]

If you're at max mechgun range you can easily get out of its attack within time. Heck, even if you're brave/foolish enough to go melee you can just avoid its attack if you start running as soon as it gives the indication that its about to do its attack.

In his golden form, Olga Flow is vulnerable to one tech and one attribute type. So, you have two opportunities to inflict damage. Since Androids can't use techniques, they just need to use a weapon with the right %.

Rangers should not have much of a problem if they use rifles.

Iris,you know i play a RAmarl but i find it easier/quicker to just use techs till i find the right weakness of course this is based on my experience in ultimate ive never fought him on v-hard

[TeamPhalanx]

Using weapons I can turn it back into its original form in under 15 seconds... Techs take over a minute since they do very little damage.

It should also be noted that if you have a weapon that inflicts damage of the right elemental type (i.e. Zonde, Foi, etc.) that works in place of a technique. Might be useful if you're an Android and don't have a weapon with the right %'s.
