Bardam's Mettle is nothing more than a tutorial on how to dodge

The second boss in bardams is exactly what I want the novice hall to be.

Id love it even more if the aoe patterns were random. Now I know exactly where to stand to wait for the next aoe.

Oh my GOD I will not be able to stop thinking of this fight as possible GATE from now on, it sounds amazing. I am in love with this idea!

Personally I quite like this "fight", to be honest. Granted, I was weirded the hell out the first time around and kept wondering when the boss would become targetable and blast us off with a buster, but it was still hilariously funny to see players actually performing well rotation-wise getting caught in fetters due to failing to move out of basic stuff.

Knocks some sense into everyone in a fun manner I reckon :)

First time I did it I got hit by a few AoEs. Stupid sprint being 60secs now(I use it during the phase where the AoE follows you). "Oh, you're on the other side of the arena and boss thingy is doing his room aoe+self aoe? Welp, you're getting hit since sprint is down"

I loved that fight. I thought that was just the opening and kept expecting T9 to start. I only got hit at the end when all the meteors and checkerboard going off at the same time.

I didn't like it initially... mainly because my reaction like... "What, do the devs think we're stupid or something?" It's pretty easy to dodge all the stuff in there. I was kinda bored with no one to heal or boss to damage. o.o;
