instant kill mechanics during Mystery Maps.

[Fenseven]

I would like to personally thank the dev who thought it would be a good idea to put instant kill mechanics into the Mystery Maps, with no chance of retrying should you fail.

Should have rolled a I-Can-Solo-Just-About-Anything Job (aka. Smn). Jk. I can definitely see how these fights could be difficult for some jobs, the mobs have a pretty decent hp pool and can do a good bit of dmg.

Always use your chocobo. If neither you or your bird are healers well.. better stack up on something that can decently heal you or avoid that explosive attack.

I don't know what variety the monsters are, so far both times I've done my maps I had to fight Bombasts, which are basically just bombs. They do get larger as you deal damage to them and eventually explode at a certain point and rinse and repeat.

As a Smn, these are cake. My titan loses maybe a quarter of his hp at most before it's dead.

Was soloing the rock golem just fine until a grp of bombs spawned behind me and then charged and one shot me for more then 5k dmg.

I personally like them. I'm glad we're getting more content that forces us to party in the open world. I'm sure you CAN do it solo, but I'd rather not take that chance.

lol. It's true though. They are the best solo class. Insta-trinity with le Chocobo.

Stupid world being dangerous...

Might i add only 1 of the bombs exploded for more then 5k dmg, the others remained and would have chased down anyone that remained.

Do they have telegraphs or is it like the ones in CT where they just explode after a period of time with no warning? >.>

was a grp of 5 or 6 that spawned somewhere off screen and then charged exploding upon impact. Only took 1 to explode to kill me. the rest ran back to their spawn point.

wow, that sounds incredibly stupid on SE's end >.>
at least give a telegraph to give people a chance to dodge ._.

Edit:
Just to clarify for feedback to SE since they actually read the forums (or so I'm told)
Party content is just fine, I just find it pretty crappy for it to be hard AND to lose your map if you fail. Spending 2-3 days for 800 myth just to try AGAIN is pretty crappy >.>
