I don't think that chapter should take so long... do you still want to play online?

Sorry forgot how long that chapter was! On the plus side I got the treasure hunt .

Just going to peg out some washing, then I'll be back. 10 mins tops.
05/05/12, 02:53   
...And back. Sorry to keep you waiting!



Did you want to create a room?
05/05/12, 03:03   
No not yet. Create one and I'll be right there!
05/05/12, 03:04   
Augh. Disconned?
05/05/12, 03:10   
Yeah, apparently the game doesn't like oversea connections
05/05/12, 03:11   
Awful.
05/05/12, 03:15   
Holy shit what did I get hit by? Two instant kills.
05/05/12, 03:21   
Haha yeah, it's pretty strong
05/05/12, 03:26   
Phew! FINALLY
05/05/12, 03:30   
LOL that Daybreak totally obliterated a few people
05/05/12, 03:35   
Terrible. I miss my claws.
05/05/12, 03:44   
Damn stupid AI couldn't kill your Pit!
05/05/12, 03:48   
Well I have to go for now but that was fun!
05/05/12, 03:52   
I wondered why I was kicking butt. Then I realised you weren't there .

Thanks for the games! Should be even better tomorrow with Non and Roy on.

@VofEscaflowne That's an annoying one for sure. I managed to do it with a bow's Special Attack, the one that rains down a storm of arrows and hits everything on the screen. It doesn't do a lot of damage on most of the bows though, so you have to take two of the heads down to almost-dead levels before you use your special attacks. They won't recharge fast enough to use them again though, so they have to count. Also, I'm pretty sure you can't make it work after killing the first head, because the last one always seems to survive.

So, yeah. Use a Bow, wear down at least two of the heads (but don't kill any) and then use all your special attacks. If that doesn't work, try again :\

@nate38

Thanks! I just tried that out and got it on my first try! I used a bow with power attack +3 (I don't even know if that's for the special attack really... wish they had descriptions of what exactly they do for some of them) and hit each head a bit prior to using both special attacks. That means 39 more treasure hunts to go now.

Is anyone else going to be playing multiplayer tonight?
05/06/12, 00:38   
@VofEscaflowne

Supposedly me, you Non and Roy....

Kris are you around? Come play KI with us!

Three hours from now right?
05/06/12, 01:48   
I'd absolutely do it, except my wife and I have burrito-based Cinco de Mayo plans. I can't disappoint her, even for Kid Icarus.
