Syrcus Tower 1st boss

[Tupsi]

Jeez this stuff just came out but everyone needs to be 100%? i can understand getting a bit upset after 3 or so weeks but it's only day 2

100%? No.
Willing to listen to the people that cleared it numerous times since yesterday? Yes.

If you get told how the battle goes 4+ times and you still don't listen, that means you never intended to listen in the first place. We all did this fresh, but by now strategies and how to deal with mechanics is already known

On the first day 6/8 of my team was FC members. We figured out the mechanics easily and people in our group rarely died when B and C were getting roflstomped even with people explaining mechanics. Granted there was no wipes but by the end it was obvious who was actually paying attention to detail and who wasn't. Amon was the biggest mess because people weren't draging the purple orbs to the Kum Kums to shrink them and cause the damage reduction/taken damage increase debuff to shrink them that often. Most of them were killed in full size.

I even remember being frozen many times and people still running with the fire orb on Boss 1. Not fun

[Kat_Manx]

Yeah I went in on the second day and people were upset that I didn't already know what to do and then I supposedly "can't listen to instructions" when they are typed out mid battle with AoE's and explosions being thrown at me and it's all in such poor grammar that it's nearly impossible to understand, followed by cusses and insults.

But hey then I am the bad player, right? /hiss. I am NOT going to do that one again till the loudmouths get the *beep* away from there.

Does all these happen on NA/EU servers?

For me on JP Tonberry it wasn't that terrible. My first ever CT2 run was with the JP players and we figured out most of the stuff together. Second run onwards I selected E only as my JP communication skills aren't that good yet to communicate on the new content, there was another experienced guy so the both of us guided the raid. Wiped a few times but still about under 1hr or so.

Third and Fourth (only ran 4 times so far) was also with full E group and I was the only experienced guy. Taught them the core mechanics before every boss fight and it was pretty smooth. In fact the 4th run, the first two bosses we 2-shot it and the last 2 bosses was a one shot. I was the only guy who knew what to do in the whole 24 man alliance on day 1.

Sad to say I just think it should be just the typical NA players issue. I was from a NA server so I have first hand experience on how LOL NA DF can be.

[Dano]

one shot with completely fresh players, but I'm probably overgeared for the content, plus with good healers they can pretty much carry the whole team.

but to be honest, this round of CT is alot easier.

[OPneedNerfs]

Queued JP with a bunch of friends, at last boss, the JP members said that they would gladly party with us again even if we were gaijin.

[HeroSamson]

First boss is a pain I agree but after people get it down it will not be a problem.

However the second boss, I do not like how they have it setup, sure the first part of the fight is fine, once you start jumping those platforms in the back.

Healers do not heal but that's not the issue at the start explaining now.

Boss engages whoever jumps right back on main platform instead of staying in center that is a problem to me, wouldn't be a issue if the healers could heal but they cannot and when he hits you its a lot of dmg.

Mechanics were also well paced to react.
Game play had a gd pace unlike CT1.

Players getting wiped, probably rely too much on video and guides. =p

Or just bad players who aren't able to figure out mechanics regardless of videos and guides.
