First, let's check the skills you have learned before entering. The following are essential active skills:
1. Moonlight Slash: A core skill for long spear weapons, which can be used with light attack combos to suppress the boss, significantly reducing the difficulty of the battle.
2. Full Moon Slash: A high-damage charging skill, suitable for use when the boss is staggered, and can be continuously suppressed with stamina management.
3. Extreme Shadow Instant Strike: A key skill triggered after dodging, improving mobility and output windows.
4. Spear Counterattack: A counterattack skill triggered after a successful defense, requiring precise parrying of the viper's combo moves.
5. Hot Wind: A ranged attack or movement skill, used to create distance or deal with the boss's rush.
There are also some optional skills:
1. Chain Thrust: Can be leveled up to 1 as a transition, and later decided whether to strengthen based on the playstyle.
2. Star Moon Slash: A high-burst skill, suitable for use when the boss is weakened.
3. Heavy Kick/ Vault: Increases movement ability, must be leveled up to cope with complex terrain or quickly adjust positioning.
Finally, there are passive skills, where some choices can be made according to personal preference:
1. Selfless Realm: Increases fault tolerance, can be leveled up to 1.
2. Spirit-related skills (such as Spirit: Tenacity, Spirit: Aggression): Choose based on playstyle, defensive counterattack style can prioritize leveling up "Spirit: Tenacity" to enhance defensive benefits.
3. Non-essential passives: Such as "Spear Blade" and other AoE buff skills, can be skipped if focusing on one-on-one boss fights.
Next, let's break down the Viper's skills. It has two phases, with the first phase being more basic, mainly including melee slashes, ranged projectiles, tornado attacks, and thrusts. In the melee phase, it frequently uses sword swings, and the challenge lies in the combos. Here are specific strategies:
1. Common combos in the first phase
Double Thrust + Sweep: Start by holding the spear sideways, precisely defend the first two segments to trigger the spear counterattack, and pay attention to the delay in the third segment sweep.
Spin + Delayed Sweep: After starting with a spinning attack, follow up with a short pause before sweeping, requiring patience to defend both segments before countering.
Quick Double Counter: Similar to the double thrust, but the second segment is a downward slash, need to observe the difference in actions.
Dart Throw: After a ranged attack, it may follow up with a dash or jump slash, defending throughout will ensure a safe response.
Key mechanisms for handling:
Stamina Management: Defense consumes stamina, avoid being staggered due to empty stamina, and prioritize leveling up the endurance attribute.
Instant Defense (Perfect Guard): When triggered, it greatly reduces the enemy's stamina, recommended to pair with the "Spirit: Tenacity" passive.
2. New moves in the second phase:
Tornado Attraction: Triggered at half health, need to quickly move away from the tornado range, and can throw javelins for ranged output.
Burst Combo: After the first two arm swings, it charges for a heavy smash, need to dodge with a delay (evade when the charge ends).
Leap and Grapple: When the spear tip glows, it prepares for a grapple, need to dodge at the moment the arm thrusts; the leap attack can be tanked by holding the defense button.
Here are a few recommended combat techniques:
1. Defense Counterattack Style
Maintain a defensive stance throughout, using instant defense to trigger the spear counterattack, and deplete the boss's stamina to a weakened state before going all out on offense.
Recommended Weapon: Greatsword (high defense performance) or Long Spear (suppressing combos).
2. Easy Mode Playstyle
In the second phase, continuously suppress with fully charged Full Moon Slashes, combined with light attacks to interrupt the boss's actions, ensuring sufficient stamina.
3. Stamina and Spirit Management
Prioritize increasing the endurance attribute (above 20 points), paired with equipment that reduces stamina consumption.
Use skills (like Hot Wind) to connect with regular attacks, transitioning and recovering through skills when stamina is depleted.
In practice, the boss's grapple has a noticeable wind-up (spear tip glowing), requiring precise dodges or early distance. During the transition from the first to the second phase, the boss will briefly stagger, allowing for the use of high-damage skills (like Star Moon Slash). In some scenarios, you can evade ranged attacks by circling pillars or using cover. Of course, as a derivative work of DNF, its hardcore nature also requires a high-quality network.

Have you all mastered the strategy for the First Berserker Kzan Viper? In the melee phase, make sure to maintain a certain distance, observe the Viper's attack patterns, and use dodges and blocks to avoid damage, countering during its attack intervals. For ranged projectile skills, keep moving and use the terrain and obstacles to dodge attacks. Also, pay attention to stamina management. Dodging and blocking both consume stamina, so it's important to allocate stamina reasonably to avoid being caught off guard due to depletion at critical moments.
