The game needs a balance of experienced and casual players. Alienating one or the other will pretty much result in a dead game. If this battle is too hard (I haven't tried it) then it will drive away the majority of players. I'm fine with adding a hard mode to storyline events and making the base content easier for less hardcore players. The more people who play, the better.

I thought it was challenging without being ridiculous. It took us a few hours worth to beat him. Most of our failures were due to lack of knowledge on the fight. Once we figured everything out, we got it done no problem.

Don't feel any reason to complain here.

My issue is destroying the meteors. You can't cast or do anything to them until they're about to hit due to the restriction on targeting enemies "too far" above or below you.

Run up the stairs?

If you're trying to blow them up from ground level, you're gonna die.

Counter argument:
"BUT YOU SHOULD BE ABLE TO CAST ON ANYTHING FROM ANY ANGLE WITHOUT RESTRICTIONS!!!!"

Anyway, that's pretty much what ya gotta do. There's no real "restriction" as people clearly are clearing this after they get a strategy down.

Too hard for you maybe...

If you want to be safe, just have one BLM on top at all time to do meteor, any good BLM can solo it easy until the astral flow phase where Darnus teleports to top panel, that is where other BLMs needs to help.

Too hard

to get in. Server congestion.

I tried for hours and hours. kept dying and dying, failing and failing

im exausted now, mentally out of it

legitimately tried since this morning... im going to bed after this post

its too hard

and dont blame my strategy. i read the eorzapedia article and everything, we all tried to form a strategy, and still died, even followed what other people said, did everything you all said in the thread

maybe it was a bad group combination i dont even know anymore

i just want to get this over with... theres a difference between challenging and frustrating

maybe tomorrow

Oh come on.. This fights not hard at all. The only part that's hard to figure out is the Megaflare.
Yet to get past that ;|
The rest of it becomes pretty apparent in moments.

Ive done it 3 times only so far
First try, ran out of time because we didn't understand the drain
Second time, we died on Megaflare because we didn't know what to expect.
Third time, we lagged out before Megaflare or something, half the party dropped, he drained 4k hp, and started Megaflare.
