This is the current version of the guide, that i am likely to edit further as Lash gets nerfed (unnerfed?) and more options become available.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Since Lustpocolypse of 6.87, my previous strategy would not work. So... Time to work out beating him through HP. There is not anything fancy to this, just gear up and spam volley until he gives. And be prepared to attempt several times until you get it.
Equipment: Sal. Shield, Void Plates, Thermal Undies, Any meele that grants 3+ evasion, Modded Arc Caster/Black Light Rifle, Sal. Longcoat
Buffs: Ania Tea, Fyn Dancing Lessons, Crystal Shard, Focus pill if Int =/= cap
Consumables: Fungal Extract, Palixia Saliva
Stats: As high as possible.
Previous Strategy: NO LONGER VIABLE AS OF VERSION 6.87
What started as a half assed attempt to mess with the good doctor yielded pretty good restults. So, i've refined the strategy until i could beat him. Here is the Zevos guide to beating Dr. Lash (or, how to use the random oddities of your grand adventure to make an instant fortune)
What is needed
Stats
Reflex, Aim, Intelligence late 30s
Perks:
Shield Booster (not mandatory, but if you take drone you'll need more luck to do dis)
Volley
Second Shot
Consumables
Crystal Shard (before fight)
Focus Pill (Before fight, if int =/= 40)
Pilixia Saliva
Fungal Extract
Weapon
Goovolver
Armor
Black Void Armor Plates (Use goovolver/volley to get past Amara)
Sal. Longcoat
Sal. Shield (Reaper works if you want to be cheap, the difference is only one to three hits)
Thermal Undies
The Fight!
Make sure you have low lust (fungal extract causes 50 on use), full energy going in. Pop the focus pill and crystal shard.
The fight itself? Spam volley. each hit of the goovolver will deal 4-6 lust, so you'll need about 20 hits to beat Lash. Keeping mind mind that your overall accuracy will be low, so you'll need well more then 20 hits to defeat him. However, since your fire resistance (after shield is dead) is 100%. the only damage he can deal to you is 1/attack plus his aim mod, which you'll resist 20% off. Expect 3 damage per hit, 6 hits minus dodge per round. Use fungal extract for 50 hp when hp dips bellow 30, palixia saliva for getting back some energy after it runs out. Expect a rng fest. And, RNG being what it is, you might or might not win the first/second/third time. I beat lash 2 out of my first three attempts with this setup, so i can say with general confidence it works. Good luck,
