Lately I hear people complaining about Kowbat and how annoying he is, and I was stunned to find out people actually push him?

Just lure him down to the start area (takes like 10 seconds because he's very aggressive) and jump onto one of the tall pillars. Then just infinite combo him, that's all there is to it. As a lvl 178 patch with no flags I can down him in like 1 minute. If you see him going to use his fire attack just block. He might hit you once or twice but if you have leech you should leave the fight with about the same HP or even higher then when you began the fight.

true, but I would rather push him and it takes 30 seconds. He is pretty bugged and always blocks that is pretty annoying.

He doesn't block if you infinite combo him from the pillar. And you would rather risk losing by pushing him.. to save 30 seconds?  what?

Use it as free hp leech :|

Nah I don't push any mobs except for kowbat, I won't lose if I don't push any mobs, so I am not taking a risk
He always takes me down to red eventough my hp is full, if I try to infinity combo him it also becomes a risk for me (Just for me)

he takes you from full hp down to red?
you're doing it wrong then

I am not fast to block his fire attack and that "drill attack"
Pushing is the best choice for me (Just for me)

because people play differently from each other, cooky.

Some mobs attack even though you're comboing,kowbat does this.
You cooky, must be very lucky.

if you stand on the pillar you will evade most of his attacks if you are good at timing with block, and even if you get hit you can leech back the hp easily.

Tested...Failed. Trying to inf combo it is ineffective and sadly a waste of time(for me). Even on the pillar it can hit you and it does too much damage and doesn't have enough hp for it to be regained. Unless you have TD, in which case you would most likely have no TA it would seem useless to try to regain hp from a mob that can hit you at random and do too much damage to be regained in the time by its next attack that hits you. People complain about themselves losing due to pushing it but if they only push the Kow they shouldn't have any problem. you are a patch = TA and TD, many of the people doing this are surge or ram so its a lot less effective for them. I've pushed the Kow next to every time just as a time and HP saver and never lost due to it. As Tricky said some do use the tactic you use but not all.

[sirhamtaro]

Yeah it just doesn't happen for me/us like it does for you.

You overrate leech, leech is not that good against a single mob, Kowbat hits you for a good 1-2k dmg on 1p and 4-5k on 8p, also Kobats HP is not nearly good enough for you to regain that hp back, even from 1 hit. Never mind after Kowbat is Turrets then Xab.


Kowbat is indeed glitched, also just to not you can't get hit by the fire attack when you are on the pillar, just his normal atk, and drill. Kow's drill atk is kinda glitched and it can happen any time even 2x in row, and there is little to no animation for his drill attack, that can make you tell when he will use it.



Kowbat takes Ross about 10 seconds to push easy game, also being a ram and the fact Ross is transed at that it takes around 2 mins to kill Kow.


Sooo 2 mins - 10 seconds = 1 min 50 seconds, chance of lose is basically 1/5, thus lets say 4 are successful and the 5th is not. It takes Ross 3 minutes to reach Kowbat.


4 games pushing kow x 1min 50 seconds saved = 7.3 mins saved, however on the 5th game Ross loses out on a 3 min game, thus making it 4.3 mins saved.


Oh also, Ross combos / uppers xab and gets hit down by the turret until his hp is red and then he upper spams, if he does however lose HP at Kowbat, that means Ross will get red even sooner at Xab slowing down the Xab wave also.




Hams method is better than this, heck even just upper spamming him where he spawns is faster and safer than this method.

guess it was just a fluke that I was able to kill him in 1 minute without losing any HP
