Mortal Kombat X

Hits against the invasion boss count all those inflicted after the armor was removed, and it is not necessary to withstand 30 seconds since I was given this achievement after losing

• You can't kill the boss. The fact that he always wins is the norm.

• At some point in the past, a patch was released for the game that made the boss much more difficult. Nowadays it’s practically impossible to approach it - this is also the norm. The old tips where comrades easily made a trophy in an hour with one blow no longer work. Now this is a humiliating boost for 3-6 hours depending on the skill.

• You need to hit the boss 1000 times. It is the hits, not the damage points that are shown after the match.

• The trophy is cumulative. Strikes are saved between fights and between different week bosses.

• Impacts are not shown anywhere. It's done blindly. The trophy could fall out now, or maybe in two hours. It's downright tiring and infuriating. I recommend keeping rough records on a piece of paper. I drew a stick for a fight in which there was a successful 10-hit combo or X-Ray. Two sticks for a fight with two kombuchs, etc.

• The boss appears in armor. First* you need to knock it down: any five blows that do not hit the block. A counted hit to the armor will flash green. The sixth blow penetrates the armor and you can already see splashes of blood there and that the blow has passed. It's damn hard because hits to the armor don't stop the boss or knock him back. He doesn’t react to blows at all and immediately begins to attack.

* They write here that hits to armor are also counted, but in my opinion, still not. I spent several hours boosting the trophy by hitting the armor 3-4 times and dying, and it didn’t lead to anything. Others say that hits to armor count if you die on a timer of 30 seconds.

• X-Ray is one of the boost methods. But in order to accumulate a Meter bar, you need to hit the boss in the armor at least a couple of times. Then you can do X-Ray even if the armor has not yet been knocked down. The first X-Ray hits will remove the remaining armor. Also X-Ray stops the timer.

To prevent X-Ray from getting into the block, you need to provoke the boss into some kind of blow, for example, by stepping on him. If you just do X-Ray out of the blue, the boss will consistently block it. Also, according to my observations, the boss always does some kind of attack or combo if you wake up next to him: i.e. if at the end of his previous episode our character ends up next to the boss, we immediately hit him + when our character starts to get up.

• The second method is kombukhi. Don't reinvent the wheel and train Raiden's combos:

I spent several hours going through the options. I really liked how Milena breaks through the armor , but in the end things started to work out when I learned this combo for Raiden. It works even after the patch.

We hit the square when the announcer says Round 1. Fight! When we see that the battle has begun, we end the combo with a triangle, wait half a second, and hold down the triangle. If everything went well, the end of the combo will completely remove the boss's armor. Then I managed to repeat the combo 1-2 more times or at least do X-Ray .

• You can also try the third option: Liu-Kangk counter-attacks :back: , but I haven't tried it. I leave it like this for the sake of completeness.

• You can restart the boss several times: it will change variations. You can choose the one that is simpler. For example, I beat Triborg and of all his variations, Sector seemed simpler to me.

• The only squeeze that I found was jumping on the boss without hitting. At the very end of the flight, we make a punch and start a combo. It doesn’t always work, of course, but at least it’s something.

Apparently after the patch, when the bosses became stronger, hits to armor also began to count.

Not a single hint works against Scorpio, he is still an incredible imbecile. Therefore, do not waste your nerves and wait for the next boss.

2019 passed for Kenshi obsessed, constantly the shield is removed with the 7th hit, after At this point Xrey is ready and L2, completed without counting beats in 2:40 hours

For those who play poorly, the achievement takes a very long time and is tedious, the last boss I had was someone else’s, I spent 6 hours hammering him, somehow in one battle I dealt 30 damage or even more. But this was not enough. We are waiting for the next one. Note - the boss cannot be killed, you need to deal as much damage as possible.

Cumulative across all bosses. You don't have to fill one in one sitting.

As of 08/2018, the above tips do not work. The boss is not pierceable, it does not miss more than one hit (the armor works), breakers also do not work and the life of the boss does not decrease. I will describe the optimal and fastest way:
1. Take Sub Zero "impenetrability"
2. We try to catch the boss with such a technique for a longer time and perform an uppercut so that the enemy flies away from us, it will turn out (1 hit freezing 1 hit uppercut) two hits per action. After an hour of playing, I learned to do it quickly and on time so that the boss did not cause me damage.
3. Strikes are counted only when you last for 30 seconds. In about a round you will be able to deliver 10 hits, and if at the end you make x-ray, you will be able to deliver more than 15 strikes.
Accordingly, one round of 10 hits = in 10 minutes you will get 100 hits and in 1 hour 40 minutes = 1000. Of course, you will not immediately master the tactics, since the boss is very fast and makes long combos. But the more often you play, the more successful your fights will be. You can also track your hits like this: when fighting a boss, remember how much money you have, for each round you win you are given 300 coins (10 hits) = accordingly, approximately 1000 hits is 30,000 coins (only for losing you are given 100 coins and hits are not counted ) so you need to earn approximately 30,000-35,000 coins.

Finished the Alien boss in 2 hours. Played as Raiden (God of Thunder) (hold)

The main thing is not to get into the corner, otherwise he will start his combos. The fact that he catches you on the last blow is normal. The scale accumulates, and from this capture you lose a little HP.

I hammered the boss for three hours. According to estimates, he won about 85 fights under the time limit, delivering an average of at least 10 blows. Hemorrhoids are still the same. The achievement never came out. Before that, I simply counted the total hits (it doesn’t matter whether it’s a loss or a win), I counted 220. Based on logic, I hit 850, well, from those 220, about 50 were successful, leaving 100 hits left. Stock up on valerian, tea and TV series, the bosses are incredibly powerful and hard to beat. It's a shame that he's also the boss once a week.

The first time a stranger fell out as a boss, I fought with him for 7 hours, almost always stood against him for 30 seconds and knocked down his armor, but after being removed it was rarely possible to hit him several times. The second time Jason fell out (it was much easier with him) it was rare that it was impossible not to hit him after removing the armor. as a result: against an alien I managed to hit him about 200 times, Jason 600 (precisely after removing the armor) + I didn’t record when I hit him not in a combo 1-2 times.

So my conclusion is; strikes are protected precisely after the armor is removed
PS: Raiden Van Love

At the time of the trophy, i.e. December 17, 2021, the tips above will not be relevant. You don't need to hit and survive for 30 seconds, and hits to the shield (the first 5 hits) count. You can just hit the armor and not survive for 30 seconds, everything will count.

It was this tip that helped, BUT I’ll add.
Now hits to the shield also count towards the trophy, the main thing is to hold out for 30 seconds.
Killed the boss - Tanya.
Unlike the tip above, after parrying-freezing Sub-zero (impenetrability), spamming combo and then parry again. In this case, there is no need to wait until the boss runs up after throwing back with an uppercut. + took an x-ray (5 more blows).
1.5 hours and the trophy dropped.

Finally achieved this achievement on 12/03/2019. I'll add my advice. As far as I understand, the AI ​​has been tweaked a lot since the game's release in Boss Invasion, which makes it difficult to consistently score combos. I have developed 3 working tactics.

1. Try to hit a skill combo for your main. I main Mileena, so I spent the first seconds of the round on a reinforced roll, which does good damage to armor when it hits. Then, after removing the armor, go to the combo in Piercing, where those piercing these sais deal 8 hits somewhere, in a combo it’s quite 10+ hits.

2. "Cheap" tactics for Thunder God Raiden. The point is to spam 112(hold)2(hold). This combo deals a lot of hits and knocks down armor well, but it has become much more difficult to abuse it, because The AI ​​is very strong. If the boss has tackles (some kind of Sub Zero or Aaron Black), then this abuse will rarely work, because the boss will often be in a crouch. Therefore, if Raiden does not work, we move on to the next cheap attack.

3. Goro's first wara (the one with the blade walk on fb4). The meaning of the abuse: we remove the armor by jumping (du). The boss almost never punishes this technique. On wakeup it is best to stick a meter walk (bf4), there is a very strong shield that often interrupts the boss’s attack and deals many strong blows to the armor. After removing the armor, we continue to abuse the boss by jumping and walking. The disadvantage of this tactic is that there is only one jumping strike, it is best to strike while walking, there are about 5-6 strikes.

I can also assume that hits to armor still count, because the achievement came, in my opinion, too early, because I couldn’t always penetrate the armor, and I couldn’t have 1000 hits after armor. Again, I feel like I could be wrong.

Finally, I can advise you to wait for the weaker boss. For example, I finished off my achievement on Takeda, he seemed to me the least powerful, so I was able to combine him with my main Mileena. It was rarely possible to break through all sorts of wild Liu Kans, Eyrons and Sabas with main; I had to use abuse.

The easiest way is if the boss is invading Predator
Choose Kung Lao. The main thing is that the Predator should be in the Warrior style
This is a mandatory condition, I’ll explain why
In warrior style, the traitor hangs a mine on himself that explodes, causing damage to himself. And thus he simply takes off his armor
It’s easy to deceive the AI, let yourself be beaten, hold it down and it immediately starts buffing the mine
You wait until it explodes and then you try to make a grab in 1 battle, you can make 2-3 grabs
1 grab=18 hits

For information. I got the trophy in the middle of the battle. And the boss’s armor was not penetrated at that moment. Moreover, that day I never lasted 30 seconds (before the “You hit the boss” sign), and it took about twenty-five minutes or about forty boss fights. During that invasion, I spent three or four Xrays and just poked the boss several times without ever breaking through his armor (X-ray doesn’t count). It’s possible that my trophy was glitched.
For reference: after receiving the trophy in my statistics: ~625 boss fights, total damage ~43000. This information can be viewed by going to the lists of faction leaders and selecting yourself.

Don't like people's brains, guys!!! I played as Liu Kang (Fire Fist), spammed a defensive attack (Thanks to Soanydroid): "Dragon reflects the blow" ! During the entire 2.5 hours, I was able to remove the armor at most 5 times, and that was only by force! About the armor it’s complete nonsense, just try to survive until the x-ray is active, if you are the first to reflect the blow, the scale will be filled with a bonus and after a few caught hits it will be ready, and... fire...

You can make this trophy much easier for yourself by choosing Liu Kang in the Fire Fist style. Our task is to constantly parry the boss's blows with a combination . Regardless of whether you parry the blows successfully or not, our treasured super-strike scale is filled. In general, we should save up for X-Ray and immediately use it on the boss. And considering that he calmly knocked out this trophy from Liu Kang with 15 blows in an hour and a half.

The boss takes you out in one go, and, for example, Scorpio also does this very quickly without taking damage.

Tactics . The boss should be an Alien, the fighting style should be Tarkatan (if you choose Automatic from Briggs, then it will be this one, if not, then restart the battle first by selecting a character). Knock out the Jackie Briggs trophy with the Automatic fighting style. It's very simple - we spam the reception (hand cannon). Firstly, it often deals damage to the boss, and secondly, the Alien has a counter-move that deals little damage and quickly fills the scale for the x-ray move. Naturally, once you have dialed the scale, press L2+R2. Knocked it out in about an hour or two. After the crash, it was even possible to carry it with a cannon.

This method is good because you will gain 100% of the x-ray scale; Briggs' x-ray was blocked by the Alien by only a percentage of 10% maximum.

Regarding past tips and their relevance: 1. Liu Kang, Raiden are useless now. 2. Scorpio is really a demon. landed 1-2 hits per fight. Better to wait for the next boss. 3. Now all hits count, including those on armor, but unfortunately not on the block.
