"single" target doesn't help when you need to down a slew of Garuda's feathers... Fester helps, but its cool down and limited usage is painful.

You could try learning to play the job before complaining. I use Tri-disaster when the feathers pop (binds them right under Garuda) and Bane right after (spreading all the dots on them). The rest of the DPS can just aoe them in the same spot, no need to chase. No dmg to the pillars. People think SMN is so bad because people like you come on here to complain when you have no idea how to use the job effectively. Please stop.

I will definitely give this tactic a shot... I've never thought of using "tri-disaster" like this, followed by Bane to bind the feathers... actually in all of the garuda fights I've been in, and I've been in many-like so many others-no one has used this tactic. I appreciate your feedback--thanks alot ^.^
