For the most part these are not a big issue, though Bind / Gravity can shut your DD's down as the knock back puts them out of melee range. The land of azure underwear forgets about that as their using special "ninja magic" that ignores those effects. Silence is easily removable with an echo drop, it's paralyze that hurts you as its potent and can take several attempts to remove it. You do NOT want to be using a BP with that paralyze on.And silence, bind, blind, gravity for one of the moves. Think NQ DL.

Well honestly Taint was horribly wrong about how ADL fights go. That thing likes to use cheap moves that screw not only with your DD's but also your mages. Their aoe range is so large that it ~will~ hit everyone. The damage is bad enough but the stupid status ailments make it worse, and ADL will get at least two off simultaneously when it splits the first time. Depending how you split your shocks is how many total it can get off. If your shock right after pop you can limit it to one move pre-split, but that's one less squall you have for the 2nd clone should you pick the wrong one. We've moved to using BLU's stunning for the first stage of the fight, saves our shocks for later and is enough to lower his damage to those outside of the PD party.
ADL is not hard, heck he's not even that high of level, but he is extremely cheap. Makes the fight very random requiring your to win several coin toss's with highly skilled / geared players. Using PD just makes the fight less cheap / random.

Tera slash hitting more then one person is the players fault. We only use 3-4 DDs max but a simple spread takes care of that move.
Knockback should never be a factor, again if knockback puts you out of range its the players fault.
If you squall at 25% (like you should) he doesn't get anything off that is in the "I Win" catagory. Again the only "I Win" is an under 10% split from the 2nd clone and that happens 1 out of 20 fights?
Marrows are hard:
Arch Dynamis Lord
Dynamis - Xarcabard
Killed 7580 times and thats just guildwork players. Easily could double that, probably tripple it for the entire player base.

Shows your trolling. You can't "be spread out" and all be inside the alcove to avoid knock back.Tera slash hitting more then one person is the players fault. We only use 3-4 DDs max but a simple spread takes care of that move.
Knockback should never be a factor, again if knockback puts you out of range its the players fault.
We use 4 DD's (and a BLU) spread out around him. I've personally been killed with Tera slash while facing his back.
The arcing nature of Tera slash has been discussed to death, you should know better.

Play better? Tera slash is conal, there is enough room for 4 DDs to spread out and never get more then 1 tagged by it.
We place 2 DDs on each end of the door and 1 DD by each lamp. We've had multiple deaths from Tera Slash but its all been player error, not some made up story about players getting hit from the front and back at the same time.

Your ignoring what I just said. Tera is not just conal it arcs from the start to the end during it's animation. When all your DD's are at capped hate, like they should be, then hate will change every time someone hits ADL. So often it'll hit multiple people.
Just goes to show you be trolling the OF for lulz.

Would love more info on Tera Slash then, it rarely goes off, but we are good about 1 DD dieing.
Not sure how the stats = skilled??? It just records the number of times a mob has been killed and the drops, doesn't record how it was killed. Most people don't even do Meebles.
10x would be 70,000 kills for a mob that Saevel trys to make sound hard. ChanClan has killed this guy 800 times??? Using a 6 man strat. (sometimes 3! lol) Big shells are killing him 9 times in one run and not using PD on every kill.
