A interlocking array of shields spin around V.I.L.L.A.I.N.'s form as it begins to crash. Its secret volcano base collapses around you. Didn't we mention the secret volcano base? Ah well, moral of the story is you take X (fire) damage from the lava.

Something shorts out. Normally that wouldn't be a problem, but you're so tiny right now it deals X (electric) damage.

A interlocking array of shields spin around V.I.L.L.A.I.N.'s form as it begins to crash. The words "PC LOAD LETTER" appear in massive letters over you. The resulting fear and confusion deal X (psychic) damage.

A interlocking array of shields spin around V.I.L.L.A.I.N.'s form as it begins to crash. It accidentally sets the temperature variable to zero... Absolute Zero. The rain of frozen bits and bytes deals you X (ice) damage.

For a moment, it seems the program can only remember BEEP and GOTO. The resulting cacophony ends tears; roughly X (sonic) damage worth of your tears, in fact.

Drops

For me, the drops were:

You found an item for your League Vault: Municipal Targeting Network

You found an item for your League Vault: firewall fragment

You found an item for your League Vault: V.I.L.L.A.I.N. case

You found an item for your League Vault: EOL drink

--hoyifung04 14:51, 14 October 2012 (PDT)

First drop seems to be one of Municipal Targeting Network, social net, or public eye. Second drop is either a conditional (fewer than 4 blue lawn darts used?) firewall fragment or (another one of the above?). The V.I.L.L.A.I.N. case and EOL drink always drop. --hoyifung04 06:46, 17 October 2012 (PDT)

EOL drink can drop 3 times in one battle. So it seems like the only item which hasn't dropped in the 1st two slots yet is the V.I.L.L.A.I.N. case, although it may just not have dropped yet. --Satan 13:30, 17 October 2012 (CDT)

EOL can drop up to 5 times, I believe. Cristiona 18:34, 17 October 2012 (PDT)

You can get more than 4 items per battle? I've yet to see anything more than 4, and you've seen 5 EOL alone? Satan 02:01, 18 October 2012 (CDT)

I haven't seen 5 EOL. I'm just reporting it's possible. Cristiona 00:20, 18 October 2012 (PDT)

Here's what I got today on my alts league:

2 public eyes, 1 villain case and 4 eol drinks. Each of my alts used 1 dart against him, which accounts for the 4 eols. Guess the firewall can be replaced by one of the first drops. Patojonas 04:36, 20 October 2012 (PDT)

How to Kill

Use a stick-on tattoo (to maximize damage, really big cut in the fight duration) equip a dongle or an office trebuchet, polydactyl gloves and bishop of wreckage (to weaken it as much as possible, impossible to beat in 1 fight if you don't, try to get at least 20 points of weaken from your equipment) and use Shock Grenade in the first 25-30 turns to super weaken it. if you don't have shock grenade maxed, it can't be done in one turn as far as experience serves me.

If you can, get a few Flash-restore capsules or drowsing rods ready just in case and use a potion of the indoors to minimize elemental damage, but you aren't likely to need if you have 20 points of weaken equipped. Use a sidekick like the jujitsu one to block attacks, was useful later to block the special attack damage later in the fight. Liao and box pill will double your maxHP.

Lastly, use blue lawn darts to significantly weaken it's defenses and autoadventure script to attack for you, it has around 8000 HP. Patojonas 04:36, 20 October 2012 (PDT)

Anyone else wondering if improved/impeded computer interaction might affect this fight? Edivad 02:42, 18 October 2012 (PDT)

If you fail to kill it before rollover, it will reappear after rollover, in its initial state. Looks like I wasted some blue lawn darts. --Sanjuro 17:08, 19 October 2012 (PDT)

Possible References

The part of the third miss message "It still can't explain how you weld metal to a song" may refer to the ryme of the ancient mariner.

Also, is it just me, or does "For science. The monster!" remind you of a certain homicidal robot at roughly 0:50 in this trailer?

Ranged vs Melee

The line about ranged being better is kind of pointless, especially if the data for that really came from comparing a Torch to a Furnace. The Furance is insanely overpowered, and has been recognized as such from about a week after the clock zones went in. When you're level 70+, all those extra attacks quickly outstrip strength's boost. However, someone with highly skewed stats and greatly inflated strength, would probably do insane damage using a Torch with Animal Kung-Foolery.

Essentially, it's just kind of pointless information, and only applicable at very high levels (ie: where you can use the furnace). Cristiona 20:49, 19 October 2012 (PDT)

Didn't know it was that overpowered, guess I'll remove the reference then? Patojonas 04:36, 20 October 2012 (PDT)
