You're the same person from before, but I suppose Emperor is trickier than the others. Once again, before you try to do anything listed below, make sure you are level 52.

Emperor has Cobra, which makes his first hit a lot more dangerous unless you hit him first. Start the round with Double Sweeps to steal the First Strike from him. If he stays still and blocks, kick him once or twice.

He has Magic Recharge on his weapon and Lifesteal on his ranged weapon. You can enchant your armor and helm with Damage Absorption, which will counter his Magic Recharge, Block Breaker, and Lifesteal. If he can't do damage, his enchantments will be useless.

His magic is Wrath of Flame. Don't be fooled by the animation. The magic does damage about half a second after the fire disappears, so backflip away once or twice when he starts floating. DON'T approach Emperor immediately after he drops to the ground or you will take damage anyway. If you are in the middle of attacking him, you may not have time to dodge. In that case, enchant your armor with Damage Absorption and hope you get lucky.

If you want to do a bit more damage to him, Frenzy and Bleeding are okay. Bleeding is countered by his Damage Absorption, but you might get lucky. Time Bomb is acceptable, so level 52 Lynx's Claws are a good choice. Stun might also help. Magic will probably be useless unless you use Monk's Amulet.
