So in the end, here would be three of us (me attacking alone, the other 2 healing eachother) fighting the v.p. ALONE. we end up losing every time. it has happened to me THREE times now, and it makes you just wanna make the below 70's leave. so the reason that they are like that (and are sorta right) is because of there bad experiances when the below 70s DID join.
I have been in the VP battle with as little as 4 and had no problems beating it. If you need to have two people healing against the VP, you are not using very good strategy in your fight. If you jump as soon as the VO jumps, you will not get hit for 10, and if you stand back a bit you won't get hit by the bolts or whatever that is he tosses out to close people. The only other thing you need to watch for are the cogs he throws. You can move, jump, or just stand there depending on exactly where they are headed and be just fine. Also, put your best thrower in the back of him to stun him and keep the others in front to push him back. Don't blame the death of a 70 for lack of sound strategy. Me and my friends are planning to go in with just 4 of us since we think it will be no problem to beat it that way. You should have no problems taking in at least one low toon, and maybe 2 or 3 as long as you have plenty of toonup gags on hand.
