MSQ - Westwind Fight Phase 1
As a player who's completed up to the end of Shadowbringers, this fight was absolutely by far the most difficult boss encoutner I've ever played (apart from Zeno's, he was a pain). I rank this fight in terms of difficult right next to that one.
I realise this is a mechanics and gear check, but expecting the player to replay ALL the phases when you get overlapping AOE's that you just wont get time to dodge if your in a really bad position is just....unfair as far as MSQ goe's. I'd completely understand re-doing all phases again if this was a Raid, but its not, its an MSQ and it leaves a sour taste in a new players mouth I'd image (as it did mine).
Shaemfully, after five failed attempts and feeling tired. I just gave up and put it on Very Easy. Not fun, not fun at all . I'm going to remember this fight for all the wrong reasons.
If I could change one thing, it would be to reduce the overlapping AOE's that take up 95% of the fightable area, offering more safe spots. Or at the very least, slowing down the pace at which they are fired off slightly.
