Dragoons: A Rotation Reborn

[Dervy]

I know when Raf SPINS AROUND, i never have to attack him from the front, only time thats happens in the whole fight is if I have honeyglazed and I attack the Hornet from the front.

Exactly.

You can be on it's flank and still avoid both devour and the cleave when it turns around. Imagine it's a 180-semi circle around Rafflesia. 0, being the left side of her, anything above 190 degrees is a safe spot. In other words, as long as you're in between the middle-section of Rafflesia and the rear, you will not get devoured or sucked by anything.

EDIT: Anyone on Turn 8, could they confirm rear misses at 490ish accuracy? If so, my speculated accuracy of around 520 doesn't seem to far off for Turn 9.
