Nerf hydra!

Doesn't matter what party i end up with really everyone dies when hydra has like 40% left of his HP, and most of my party members says and i agree with them that we can't see what the hell is going on after awhile, everyone loses focus because they have to move away from ground aoe's kill wyvern before he casts bravery while the hydra sneaks to the mid and fears us all for 5k damage which is an insta kill for black mages.....

personally nerf hydras damage abit then remove 1 ground aoe.
the fight will be more enjoyable, i know endgame content are supposed to be brutally hard but not t point when you want to stop playing the game or change class to a gathering class for the rest of my life.

HM primals are hard but at least there is some strategy to it.

hydra wipes everyone if 1 or 2 people dies..

alternatively increase the rate you gain limit break points, if parties can get lvl 3 break at 40% of hydras hp a white mage can use it to res everyone for a second chance.

as of now it's tedious as fuck and i hate it.
i can put up with everything else but hydra is too fucking cheap.¨
and i play good but hydra withers everyone down and it's hard to know where hydra will lay his ground aoe's some people get locked out of the middle and dies from fear.

what are your opinion?:confused:

Troll thread?

Hydra is fine have kill it a bunch of times now, is not that hard just need to focus and pay attenction and you clearly said you and your party wasn't doing that.

lol ... Hydra was so easy even with randoms

If anything they should buff hydra. He was such a letdown after the much more difficult Chimera.

get better at the game imo

relic quest is supposed to be rewarding

That may have been the case, lol. We only had a monk and a healer alive when Chimera died. Whole group was alive when Hydra died.
Chimera is much less forgiving.

Chimera is much harder than hydra, it has considerably more abilitys that can instantly wipe you.

On the other hand hydra has nothing, kill add, dps boss, dont get feared, win.

They already nerfed PvE too much. If you can finish every solo challenge on the first try then something is wrong. There is no sens of achievement, it turns into a mindless grind if you dont have to think. The difficulty was way better in beta 3.

Need good stuns for Chimera, and good heals and tank for Hydra. Missing any of those and either fight will be a pain in the butt lol

all the players i get grouped up with are good we know what to do the problem lies with the camera angles and the vast amount of shit going at the same time, 4 random ground aoes several people moves away, wyvern casts bravery because people had to take a fucking detour not get caught in the ground aoe's and hydra's fear aoe can be pretty devasting when all these things comes together.

we know what to do, we know what to avoid but it gets too much, it's so easy to lose focus when you are in a tight area with a boss that deals aoe damage

Hydra isn't difficult and is a check on situational awareness, which you need for HM Garuda and Titan.

Man. Reading through your posts, you are a big cry baby casual aren't you? You want more reward and less hard dungeons, in content that is still under development. Go do another class/job. Stop crying about the end game that is not even completed yet. Troll casual.

You're welcome

then relay this 5 second strategy description to them, just to make sure

DO NOT STAND IN THE MIDDLE, cannot put enough emphasis on that one
dont stand in shit!
burn the shit out of the wyvern, dps it very quickly! OT pick it up, if your dps doesnt suck your MT wont get gibbed by triumvirate. if the wyvern is up during fear itself, take it with you into fear itself anyway!
don't suck!

GG hydra dead

also according to IGN it's possible to avoid triumvirate and 1 tank hydra by running around in a circle

but ign also said FFXIII was a great game rated 9/10, so i'd take that with a grain of salt

Is this really a serious post? Hydra is the easiest boss of the entire relic weapon chain....

Ppl need to stop suggestion that things in this game need to be nerfed to make the easy. If you want an easy mmo go play WoW. This game is for players that require a challenge to be satisfied. If all you want to do is spam spells, not have to dodge aoe, and not pay attention to a fight than there are many games out there that offer this kind of unchanging, unrewarding game play.

Lots of the fights in the game were very hard the first time I fought them. Then you learn how the battle goes, and it is much easier to pay attention to what is going on as you know what to expect. With practice you will begin to be able to anticipate what is going to happen in the fight and all of a sudden it will feel much easier.

lol... what difficulty? the quests required more effort but the dungeons (looking at you brayflox) were easier than they are now

edit: i should add that i don't think hydra is really difficult at all, yet for some reason people never pay attention to when they hydra goes to the middle

I'm a low level and I haven't had the chance to fight it yet, but I would actually prefer it if they kept/keep it difficult. So far my friends and I haven't had any trouble with the only wipes occurring when bombs explode on us. I vote to keep this boss difficult and make higher level dungeons hard that way it can be a challenge and is more rewarding.

Hahahahaha

You should be a comedian, OP. You'd be rich.

You can actually one tank hydra and just eat triumvirate solo, healers have to be on the ball though.
