Alright, now that I'm finally in the forums again. Going to discard some outdated posts and ones that contain mistakes. Idk what happened, but kept getting server error 1599 again and again.

About Me
Just a person who enjoys playing ranged characters in MMO games.
Hurk's counter system is what gives him great amounts of damage in battle, but he cannot have true invulnerability for his dodges, so be careful not to do too much careless blockades. The Awakening mechanic allows you to increase your attack speed over time, capping at level 5. when you execute perfect counters, you will hear a SHING sound and the boss will glow orange, allowing you to hit it with counter attacks 3 or 4 times, even doing the dual strike or executioner's slash as part of the combo. Counter hits can go as high as 30K damage per hit depending on your balance and critical hit ratios.
Pillar karok is the only class that does not suffer from an attack rating limit (far as I know of), so his attacks can pretty deadly once mastered. Some pillar karoks even outweigh cross gun kais in terms of damage capability. Unfortunately his dodge does not give him true invulns in season 3, as some attacks will be reduced to 200 damage per hit. In season 1 and 2, his dodge and smashes are true invulns.
Cetsus karok doesn't deal a load of damage as opposed to pillar, but if you're interested in pvp, will leave you virtually invulnerable to other forms of attack. The weave ability can trigger even whilst attacking so time your attacks carefully for perfect weaves. Be wary that weaving will not work on some attacks. Cetsus karoks can lock-down bosses, which is good if you are interested in teamworking capabilities instead of going for the top charts. if you run low on stamina you can gain it back by simply punching the boss after weaving twice and pausing for a bit before unleashing an onslaught of punches. the LV 3 charge shot can deal a load of damage, but it will leave both you vulnerable while charging, and will overheat the cetsus for 10 seconds, preventing you from using Blast skills until it cools down. The green glowing blast will give you attack speed, and there is an sp skill that gives you all 3 blast buffs in one, making cetsus karok a virtually unstoppable steam roller.
with the new update, you can farm up to 30 bravery seals a day if you are doing both ein's daily challenge to complete all battles which yields 13 Ein seals, and another 20 to complete the daily raids of all the fights.
total given: 10 (kraken cannot be soloed unless you have the means to inflict the dps, this normally requires +15 with dark knight transformation and loads of merc pots)
Nilfheim: Succubus Queen Revived Blood Lord Zecallion
Total given: 3
Ben Chenner/Lochlann Plains: Regina Braha Glas Lugh Eochaid
Total given: 5 (Not recommended to solo as they have mechanics that can give players a rage-inducing headache.)
Unknown expanse: Stribog Ravenous Queen Ancient Siglint Ancient Beokros Ancient Elchulus Ancient Lakoria
Cycles each day, drops minimally 1 seal of bravery, the lv 40 bottle will also give one that will not count towards your limit.
These are the bosses that are able to give bravery seals thus far.
Other means to get seals of bravery: Daily raonne's seal pouch Incineration (hope to Elchulus that will be fixed soon).
Edits: corrected the seals required for armor primes as mentioned. Corrected the seals required for legendary shards. Added unknown expanse as a way to bravery seal farm, along with daily.
Recommended skills for kai: Hand bomb, perforate, Six shooter, Bolt storm.
recommended items: sticky bombs or spears depending on which part you want to take out as the player cannot carry enough to achieve all 4 breaks.
Breaking all 4 parts will yield a gold bonus to the party, except in the Ein lacher variant.
Breaking off the tail will reduce the range of his tail sweep attack.
Causing a break off animation will interrupt his petrify attack, highly recommended to resort to this if interrupting with other skills is not an option.
