    Funnily enough, it had to do with overgearing it.
    The way the first boss works is that he summons dogs at specific percentages of his HP, the gap between those spawn points gets shorter at lower HP levels for him.

    And people don't like the concept of holding back on DPS. So you'd often get 2 extremely well geared DPS blasting the boss fast enough that you get overwhelmed by adds and the debuff they put out.
    It was especially bad when one DPS thinks the other one can solo the adds and just kept blasting away, spawning more and more dogs, lol.

    For Siren, people just couldn't figure out how not to get Charmed ...
    I don't actually remember what they did change though, to make it so easy now. I was kinda sad when they did nerf it, as i really enjoyed it in its original form.

Gathering nodes are also available on these islands, so once the island is secured by the battle team, gatherers will be able to gather items to take back.

    We wanted to give an old MMO-like feel for this one, and for FFXIV it'll be fresh content that hasn't been seen before."


    If it is.. I would've preferred to get the third dungeon as my FC still doesn't have house, and no access to airship crafting.
    They might allow us to participate in other FCs explorations, which would let those without an Airship of their own do the content.

    Some trash mobs have been removed from the dungeon. First boss was given more HP so that DPS couldn't spawn all the dogs in a short span of seconds. Zu adds I think dealt less damage and had their HP reduced (and I think they took the cockerels MP draining ability away... at least I think it drained MP) and Siren's Feral Lunge AoE's size was reduced, dealt less damage and... I think that's it, really. Dunno if they did anything to the zombies (probably reduced their HP and STR).

    Pharos HM seems to have Kobolds involved in some way, so we'll most likely not have Siren as a boss again and chances are we won't get a third remix of the Pharos Sirius theme (assuming the siren was the one singing it).

    Don't get me wrong. I would be happy to see a third Siren in the game.
