It didn't reflect damage when it retreated in VI, it counter attacked with massive party wide lightning aoe.

Brain fart. I was thinking of another boss from a different FF game that used a similar mechanic. I can't believe I forgot Megavolt.

I already see the nerf incoming when this mechanic stops groups from clearing because that one party member won't listen. >_>

So nobody here cares that Nidhogg looks like he would be at his full power form?

no question taht we will have a trial.

No one will care cause it'll be a main story trial, and those are usually easy after a blunder or two.

I see it being more in the vein of the fight with Nabriales in the Chrysalis

Just saw this on twitter: Dungeon Preview

and I foresee people ignoring the mechanic completely 2 months after patch, and healing through it.

Alas... although Nabriales wasn't as bad as the Lahabrea debacle, it could still have been reserved for a harder mode of difficulty. Same with the two in the ACF. Shame they don't do hard mode versions of those fights. I'm betting Niddhog will endure a similar fate, which is sad.
