Critical bug on Levi EX DF

Leviathan kept wiping us after the first tidal wave even when we had 30+ and activated converter. I know contents are being released on limited time but critical bugs like these cannot occur. What's the point of releasing contents if the players can't play it? :mad: Please fix it. Thank you.

Did you activate the converter early enough? Because Leviathan will kill you if the converter animation isn't done when Leviathan starts speaking. It has always been this way.

if levi flying in circle around you and the shield not up, then it too late, shield has to be activate right after the single drive. the damage is calculate way before the actual animation hit you.

I was expecting this to be something like "DF won't match every group with a smn/blm because this fight is IMPOSSIBRU without meteor LB". Glad to see I was wrong.

But yes, maybe your timing is wrong. Are you pulling the lever during/just after he uses spinning dive? Or are you waiting longer for it?

Just did Levi Ex, i do believe it is bugged, same thing just happened, ran this prolly a hundred times before, tiggered switch at 27-30%+ right after dive and killing party like we never hit the switch at all, tiggered switch earlier 2nd time, even it didnt have enough % tank should of survived but they didnt, so ya something is up with it :X

Just tried levi ex and it is indeed bugged.

As others have said, you absolutely MUST trigger the converter right as spinning dive goes off. Aka, if he does his little speech before the converter has been activated, it's too late. However, I have encountered situations where we had enough conversion AND we triggered it way before we needed to and we all still died (as though the shield did not register at all). This bug is incredibly rare, and before 2.28 I only encountered it once out of many, many farming runs. I haven't done the fight in 2.28 yet, so I'm not sure if this bug is more common. At the time, I assumed we had all just hit a lag spike or something.

Pretty sure its really bugged now from the patch, never had the problem with before >.<

Might need to give this a try once my update is done. I know it's not unusual sometimes for this to happen on the SECOND Tidal Wave since you can push his HP too low too fast just like Ifrit EX and get an auto-enrage, but having it happen on the first Tidal Wave is much worse.

The timing has changed (bug, or not?). I had it in hard mode earlier and it wiped us twice with the normal timing.
It worked if we hit the button right as soon as it became available to hit.

Flipping right away in EX would mean you're basically rolling the dice for a knockoff on the second whorl so I imagine it's a bug.

Doubt it was intentional. Timing change has to be a bug. There has to be a wide window since everyone can potentially be on the wrong half of the platform when the button activates. I try to stand right beside the button but that doesn't always happen.

Anyone know if this got fixed from the maintenance?

It should be fixed according to the patch/hotfix notes:
