The problem with allowing Turn 2 Rage strat

[Githiun]

I think any party that relies on a MNK to silence is doomed for failure in general. It's not that a monk can't do it, but to constantly be in that stance waiting for the high voltage to come will make your DPS really low.

Fair enough but we had a bard as secondary too. I don't know much about the silence mechanics as I don't know the monk class or brd class for that matter. But i'd guess with Monk and Bard we should have been able to handle voltage.

Doesn't change the fact that I seriously feel dirty for doing the boss that way..but....i did get an upgrade sooo...lol. Happy for that!

... because my group had a monk that just couldn't get the interrupts down.

You had a bard? Then what classes have your tanks been? If one tank was a PLD then you would've been set and done, as Palas can silence, too. We always do this with one BRD and one PLD who alternate on silencing the high voltages.
