    Hi guys,

    I did a run of Turn 1 of the Binding Coil of Bahamut and ran into some problems which I've never encountered before pre 2.1...

    1. Even when set to Steady, Garuda aggroed Caduceus (the snake boss) before anyone else in my party started attacking... we had to wipe a few times because of this... (so I could only Swiftcast-Summon Garuda just after the tank pulls)
    2. At the location where I usually stand during the fight some two hexagons away on a higher platform, I found that I couldn't target my Shadowflare properly on the boss as usual, despite being able to land it somewhere FURTHER away from him (so it's not a range issue). My bard had the same issue with Flaming Arrow.

    Apart from that..... I MISS MY THUNDER...... :'(
    (well I always enjoy adding that extra DoT to my rotation muahaha)

    1. Ironically, same thing happened to me, but it was just one wipe.
    2. That sounds purely locational, personally have seen no difference in Shadowflares.

    I figured I would place blizzard on my hot bar in case it came in handy. I kept hitting it thinking "And now we Thunder" though my mana isn't an issue or ever was I just notice I got more of it. I throw out a ruin every now and then more, I need to get use to the pet stance fixes for the new dungeons but that's about it.

    Did Garuda start gliding across the room randomly? We had that happen with Garuda, Selene AND Eos (SMN + 2 SCH, though Selene was resummoned in time and didn't aggro Caduceus) Really wishing I was recording; it was hilarious.

    Happened when I did coil T1 last night. Ran to Cadecus and Garuda looked like she was trying to escape. I mean it was a good laugh, but it's not right. They obviously messed something up when they changed everything around. Also I heard that SMN does magic damage to stoneskin now. Can anyone confirm this? It's the reason I come blm to T4!! If it's fixed, then that changes everything!

    P.S. I too was having trouble with my rotation. I put Miasma II where Thunder used to be and I forgot about it until everytime I saw myself throwing up an AoE Virus globe around myself. Got a few laughs from the FC last night because of it. -_-

    I also had that happen this week. Had to tell the SCH before he ran up and wiped us. Hitting heel makes them get on you
