    I'm a SCH and do the whole of AK in cleric stance. Shadowflare and 5 other DoTs make for decent dmg to get the wall down before bees even spawn.
    Isn't that Yoshi-P's answer? Zoom out and you'll be fine? Lol.

    Anyway, the camera isn't the issue, really. I don't have a problem dodging it, but when Shadow Flare is dropped, suddenly I can't see.

    Also, I'm on PS3, so zooming out during a fight isn't quite as easy as it is do on PC, I'm sure. It's just a matter of consideration, I think, that's all.

    Demon Wall itself is not a difficult fight, so Shadow Flare isn't even needed. I've been in a handful of groups that took it down before the bees without the use of Shadow Flare at all.

    EDIT: I guess the wording was wrong there. I'm about to get Shadow Flare on my SCH, so I know it does contribute, but it doesn't really feel necessary for this particular fight, ya know? Yes, it helps, but impairing the vision of your DPS isn't exactly helpful, lol.

    I don't play with my camera zoomed out, so suddenly having to do so seems a little unfair. Even during the Titan HM fight, I don't play with the camera zoomed out, but I still clear the fight without issue. So yeah... I'm sure that the feature helps, but as a PS3 player, it's not as easy to zoom in and zoom out during fights, and such.

    I play as MNK or PLD in AK a lot, on gamepad, and it's not hard to zoom out at all. You can do it before engaging, you know.
