the new trial is too hard

[Cyrus-Wallace]

I queued up solo. None of us had any previous experience. We all discovered the mechanics without asking. We cleared it with 20 minutes left on the timer because some ocassional derps. It's all about communication, assign tasks and perform them as requested. It was an amazing fight, nice music, nice environment. FINALLY A MASSIVE BOSS. I hope the this trend continues in Heavensward.

Edit:

*the new trial cannot be one shotted mindlessly while I push random buttons on my keyboard/controller while watching Youtube.

- fixed

Exactly. This fight requires awareness and teamwork. An impressive nice designed encounter if you ask me.

It would be a lot easier if people would just buckle down and try to figure out what to do instead of shouting at each other.

I hope to see more fights like this in the future.
This is the kind of difficulty I like to deal with instead of memorizing a pattern to the point you can do the fights blindfolded >>

More of this {Yes, please.}

I'm going to join everyone else and say this fight is fine as is. I like a challenge once in a while. It's 6 story tall dragon for Pete's sake!

How dare they put the multiplayer back into the a MMO.

Of the two parties I've been in both have two shot it. I honestly thought the last two story instances having some sense of difficulty was a welcome change, and I wouldn't have minded if either were more difficult to be honest. I realize you took off work today but just think, this is the last story instance we'll have for the next 12 weeks.

I hate you OP because you're right, for 90% of the population that expects to just 1/1 everything with no brain usage, "easier" is expected; and "easier" is what will likely win out in the long run because no one wants to think or have to try or wants a challenge, so you can have more content that you can faceroll and never return to. /sigh

I do hope that 3.0 does require much more teamwork and skill than the 2.0 easy quests were. Leave the 4 man playschool stuff behind and give us some real, big, content. Bring it Yoshida!

The only real threat in this fight is your own team members not listening or doing their jobs. I've been trying this fight for the last 2 hours with 3 separate teams and we've only gotten him less than 50% ONCE because half the team didn't follow instructions. Had to keep a healer on one of the cannons because all the dps ran off. People who stole aggro from tanks didn't think to stop attacking and drag the adds within cannon range.
When I do clear this fight, I'm never doing trial roulette again.
