Just Follow the Healer's Instructions
"Just do exactly as the healer says." "Ah~ So threat level is aggro in English?"
Pull the aggro.
It was a concept everyone knew these days, but in Jeong Hana's world—where Lost of Fantasy had only just reared its head—it was utterly alien.
"Ah, what? So if Min-seo pulls the aggro right, we won't get hooked by those claws?"
"Looks like it? But I've never seen this on YouTube..."
It was obvious, really.
Lost of Fantasy wasn't a game where you just started at max level for no reason, and ironically, the grind from level 1 to max was long—really long if you did it properly.
The influencers who claimed to have done "pre-playtesting" from HQ had barely scratched the surface.
Nothing compared to Jeong Hana, who'd sunk over ten years into Lost of Fantasy.
"Ah, that makes sense. Now I get it. Our healer's a study-abroad elite."
Sky's ridiculous joke had Kang Min-seo bursting into laughter before she could stop herself.
"Right, right. Just like Sky said. Using English? Total study-abroad vibes."
"Yeah. Back in the day, folks who ran North American League of Legends servers still called items by their English names."
"What's a blue sser?! What's an infi?! What's a blue kel?!"
The 11th attempt.
After endless wipes where the boss just spammed patterns and they got wrecked like dogs, Jeong Hana arrived with the answer.
And it felt so damn satisfying.
"Alright, let's go! Just like the healer said!!! One! Two! Three!"
Kang Min-seo charged the boss again, chaining combos just as they popped into her head.
As GutRipper said... Use Armor Rend five times, then just maintain stacks...
Following Jeong Hana's teachings, Kang Min-seo calmly slotted her skills, hitting Taunt at the end to lock in the aggro—unlike before.
"Whoa, what? This feels totally different. No claws from this bastard?"
"This is nice. Whoa, earlier this boss would claw and we'd chase its ass shwoosh shwoosh shwoosh, DPS loss was legendary. But it's staying put now—easy mode."
"Moonlight always makes us stronger!"
"Uh, uh... Big one's coming. Here it comes again!"
"Min-seo! We won't die this time, right?"
"Yes! We won't die! The healer's got us!"
Unlike before, Kang Min-seo felt totally at ease.
"Ah, damn! Why me again? What the hell! Why always me?!"
Daydream flipped out as the molten metal flew her way again.
> Gunner to tank's side
> Rogue hang back a sec
"Huh?" "Eh?"
Get away from allies when the ground spawns it.
Everyone knew about AoE damage, so Daydream—and even Kang Min-seo—were stunned.
"No way..."
Daydream had to think fast.
Molten metal burning under her character's feet.
That explodes for massive damage.
But go to the tank's side with it on?
"...Supporter will save me. Whatever."
Not my fault anyway.
Decision made, Daydream charged to Kang Min-seo's side, molten metal and all.
"I-I'm gonna die... Ah! Screw it! I'll live! Gotta be why she said go!"
Sizzle sizzle!
The moment the moonlight hit 12 o'clock, the metal went boom and vanished.
"Huh? What? My DPS dipped?"
"Looks like it splits the damage?"
Daydream not taking full hit meant Kang Min-seo ate some.
But Jeong Hana topped her off in seconds—no issue.
"Wait, won't that kill our Min-seo? Ah, I paused DPS?"
Sky stuck to the boss's back, stabbing daggers, worried.
Basic DPS math.
After the metal burst, Kang Min-seo had never survived the boss's follow-up.
"Ah, if I die now it's so embarrassing... Huh?"
Which survival to pop first?
As she fretted, her character clang clang clang clang! blocked every boss auto-attack. She jumped.
"Whoa, what? Min-seo! Min-seo!! That's it, right? Full Colossus with Randuin's and plate?!"
"What's with the tankiness? HP's not even budging?"
Kang Min-seo was baffled by her sudden unbreakable state.
What, what? Why am I alive? How?!
Surviving was great, but she needed to know why.
That drive made her a high-tier gamer.
"Moonlight always makes us stronger!"
"Ah! Min-seo! My turn this time? I'll join?"
"Yeah! Come on! We won't die anyway!"
Sizzle sizzle! Boom!
Same pattern, handled per Jeong Hana's guide—no deaths.
"What... the...?"
Second repeat, and Kang Min-seo realized.
I could just sip coffee and this would tank itself?
No resource cost on defenses—her character ghost-blocked every auto with the shield.
Spotting it instantly, Kang Min-seo mashed 1-2-3 idly, scanning around.
"Ah, there it is!"
You've been tempered by moonlight!
Weapon block and shield block chance +25%. Defense +50%.
"What? What'd you find? Why so shocked?"
"Sky, this! When I take the metal, I get this buff that boosts tanking."
"Ah, what? So DPS soloing it was massive troll then."
"That's why Min-seo melted like tofu?"
As everyone marveled, the boss raised its hand for the third metal shot.
But with DPS overflowing, it ate fatal damage and dropped.
"Moonlight... discards me..."
"Whoa, this was stupid easy. Total chump boss."
"Can't believe how simple."
Amazed yet let down.
The streamers—minus Kang Min-seo—laughed in shock, looted the corpse, and rolled dice frantically.
"Whoa... What were my 11 wipes then..."
Clearing an 11-try boss in under 3 minutes left Kang Min-seo in sage mode, blissfully numb.
"Alright, next one quick. Next."
"Bro, rushing won't drop the dagger."
"Who knows. Could be that smart dagger like yesterday."
"Why's it smart? Dagger with INT? Wtf, get smart wielding it?!"
The jokes snapped her out; before moving to the next boss, she typed.
> Healer
> Can you give strats for next too?
Knowing strats doesn't make you a challenger.
Item trees and famous guides don't turn everyone pro.
> Nah
'GutRipper' has left the party.
"No way, whoa... She's savage. Just peaced out. Kinda hurts?"
"Ah, but totally my type? No clinginess—huge like."
"Guys, that's pointless."
Kang Min-seo, knowing this was their first meet with Jeong Hana, felt a smug swell in her chest.
"She's always that cool~!"
Having a connection others didn't? She puffed up.
After casually dipping from the streamer party, Jeong Hana kept grinding.
New zone unlocked—new quests, straight to dungeons. She grabbed forgettable ones to nudge combat power higher.
While she busied herself, a minor storm brewed in the Lost of Fantasy gallery.
GutRipper.
Despite herself, Jeong Hana was starting to get famous.
