Garuda's Wings Clipped: "Where The Wind Blows"

[Noir]

Well, it's not like SE has shown us they can create "hard" content, unless its in the form of something ridiculously absurd such as Absolute Virtue. The only reason why Ifrit took so long to kill was because of the terribad server structure and animation lag that plagued the instance and fight.

Lol, wrf are you talking about? Can't you see they communicate, have probably the best gear in the game, triple, or 4meld shit. Took them 32 tries and you say it isn't hard? Yeah, did you kill it? They killed it in little under 8min. I saw a 8min video from mog posted on YouTube and they got owned when 3 Garudas showed up and her hp wasn't close to die, maybe 1/4. Go cry in a corner you jealous #\%\^\^.

/em hugs Richard inappropriately. Friends? News to me. I got some AF with VV last patch, but that's about all the contact I've had with BG until I just touched Richard. Also, not jealous. Check my lodestone history. I didn't even have to do the fight. Louie offered me the quest and I just stared at him until he said "Oh... right." and gave me the win.



(p.s. - Richard, call me. (I had fun today))

That was like our 8th-10th try not our 32nd so don't down play us because we haven't killed it yet we were trying which is more then I can say for most that were watching us "fail." Hating on the hater to become a hater is kind of just as bad, but cool story bro~!

lol @ all of you for crying about stacking BLM or stacking jobs in general. It's a strat that works.. deal with it.

Lol wth? Is this WoW where gear is needed to determine a successful win? Nope.

I've been supporting BG with all these people whining about class stacking. The content isn't hard, simple as that. No, I haven't had the chance to even do the 40 version of Garuda. I'm not saying that skill isn't involved, just in comparison to fights that many others have experienced not just in FF, but other games. This is at the bottom of the barrel. The fight is more about the concept rather then actual hard mechanics to overcome. As BG said themselves, it's really just about hiding behind the rocks and dealing with the adds. How is that hard?

How about you try the fight first? That could help.

We never said this was the extent to the fight lol. Garuda still requires the highest amount of performance and execution in any fight we've had so far in FFXIV. It's not a push over and a lot of people won't be clearing it anytime soon. If you can't do high DPS you wont even see Phase 2. If you manage to scrounge by Phase 2 and you don't continue high DPS you will likely be burned down in Phase 4.

No its not AV. No it's not Yogg 0 Lights. It is the hardest fight we've had in the game so far overall because Ifrit's bullshit server/animation lock is not fresh and it doesn't really affect you in this fight.

[Keftenk]

Lol, why am I the one being flamed? I'm not accusing anyone of anything, just simply stating the fight isn't really as hard as people claim. As I'm entitled too and what will most definitely be the truth. It's not like I run with some ragtag of shit players in my LS. Just like AV, CC, and Mog before it, Garuda will be no different in terms of how "difficult" it will be. It's not talking smack, it's just how SE does content. It's how they've almost always done content in not just 14, but in 11 as well.

If you think for a second that BG is the only exception to the "its not that hard" rule, you're kidding yourselves. There are plenty of groups across all the servers that are as good or just as good as BG. All about execution and repetition, don't know why people don't understand that.
