Spotted - Odin

I already saw him. He's a Duskwight. I got killed quite a few times to get right in his face to see what he looked like. Also, in regards to PS3, I saw about 40 people prior to me starting to record my video. Then most of them ran off because he kept killing them. It was fun to watch them drop like flies, though.

And if you're lucky, you may sometimes see Odin for like half a second http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/i...es/biggrin.png...

You do realize "challenge" is subjective and pretty much every challenging thing in any MMORPG ever falls into the category of either "able to instantly kill you" or "some weird ass gimmick", right?

Personally, I wouldn't mind more "wierd ass gimmicks." Something along the lines of, performing such and such action causes the boss to reveal a weak point for 5 seconds allowing damage dealers to target it for 2x damage, more platformer'esk play. =)

I'd like to see crazy gimmicks like "need to deal damage slowly, or it kills you", to see how many would be prepared to downgrade their gear to live.

Behemoth seems like the same kind of zerg.

Everything he does that deals that much damage is dodgible. If you are throwing bodies at him you are not doing it right.

Also, at least 8+ groups have to use a dps limit break on him right before he zantetsukens you or everyone dies.

It's a pretty interesting fight.

Way too many flashy lights on evrything we do. SE take that crap out and simplify it because honestly we dont need it and doesn't even come close to looking good. Those screenshots show you exactly what I mean, you cant even see the guy your fighting lol.

You can take the flashes off under character options. That's what I did for this fight.
