PSA: It's not too late if you're hit by Assimilation
	
	
		One thing I haven't seen mentioned regarding Assimilation is it's actually one of the more lenient gaze attacks in the game. Even if you receive the debuff, continue to look away from Ozmashade until it falls off.
I realize this the least difficult part of the encounter, but still, I figure less Singularity Gaols is better, right?
EDIT: Particularly helpful if your alliance is one of the last to engage, since it's possible to get hit by it while you're still jumping down.
