As much as I love to attend anime and gaming events, Vegas is just a whee bit far for me.
I'm hoping for a European one in the near future.

Anyhow, for an ingame topic;
Have any of you won Turn 6 of coil yet, and if so, what strategy do you use in the last phase?
Mainly, handling the slugs/honeys.

You could try visiting the GamesCom in Cologne (Köln) Germany. I’ve been there last year and it was pretty awesome to visit it. I even managed to meet and greet Yoshi-p and Foxclonn there. (^_^ )-b But, it was EXTREMELY crowded there (which i think would be pretty common for gaming conventions like that). So, if you don’t mind large crowds, i would suggest visiting it at least once.
In regards to Turn 6. Our group is currently working on those 2 phases. We have the phases down up to the honey phase and we got passed it once before, so we know we can do it. We know that the person who has been honey glazed, has to be eaten and that the Bees do a 30k Final sting. So it’s a lot about positioning and prioritizing in that phase.

What we do as a group, is making sure that we tank Rafflessia in the center of the arena, while keeping the freshly popped Bulbs behind it. That way, the DPS and Healers can stand behind Rafflessia until someone gets flagged for the nom-nom’s. He or she only has to run into the nearest thorns behind Rafflessia, while the honey glazed member gets eaten and the rest avoids being eaten. But, in order to make that work, the Bulb that drops in the center, has to be killed before it spawns any thorns. Then we still have the Bees to take care off.

This requires a lot of coordination and swift (re)action. This is the part we are currently working on. Once we have that down and can get passed this phase comfortably, then we will be focussing on getting that phase down. But, from what i’ve heard, that phase shouldn’t be too hard.

Our strategy right now (based on getting to it just once) is pulling Rafflessia to the edge of the arena (where there are no Thorns) and have the rest stand behind it. When the Slugs pop, take care of 2 slugs and let the 3rd one turn into a Super Slug. Once that one’s down, burn the boss down.

But… That is still a work in progress. (^_^; )
