Final boss insta-kills us.

What is this insta-kill-skill anyway? How do you trigger it? Didn't see this on my run, which was in a party composition without any stuns (BLM/BRD/SCH/SCH) :O

I have no idea what it was. Maybe it was just a hard AoE move, and we were all mid-to-low on health at the time she did it, but damn me for not even thinking to stun her before she used it. All I had to do was push one button, and that person with 30/30 could have finally gone home with a 235 weapon, and the rest of us could have maintained that ONE point we gained that run.

I can't even put into words how depressing that is. I'm using PotD to get me into the flow of just being a tank, because tanking is my weakest role.

There's no move that you can stun. If one or more players got hit by her room wide aoe (in health) without being next to her or away from her, depending on the orange indicator, the moment she casts dark harvest you get hit by a lot of dmg. You could have been full health, still would have died probably depending on how many people ignored her mechanics. Same counts for the cold feet mechanic, if you don't turn away and you get hit by hysteria, you'll end up standing in the "in health" mechanic she casts right after. If your party is to slow, you end up dodging the old tam tara hard mechanics (circles, statues etc), that move can't be stunned either.

Dark Harvest is her teleport, it does not inflict much damage its more for her to re-position for In Health. Black Honeymoon is the room wide unavoidable AoE that gets empowered by In Health, to auto-wipe levels at 5 runes.

If she gets 5 runes activated then its an auto-wipe on the next Black Honeymoon.

The way it works is that over the course of the Fight she starts chain casting In Health. Further she starts being able to cast Black Honeymoon multiple times before the runes are consumed and Black Honeymoon resets.

This can get very bad because during that stage of the fight if she uses her LoS attack to inflict hysteria on enough people... she can more or less go from 0 runes to 5 runes and auto-wipe on the next Black Honeymoon. Whats more is she always follows up the eye LoS attack with either an In Health or her teleport scythe attack into In Health.

I saw it twice, once we wiped totally but another time, the WHM and myself countered it and we finished it (bless WHM), me with sacred soil and her with the WHM skill Asylum (our healths the 3 standing went really really really low). It killed only who wasnt Inside those two (aka one BLM), we survived and finished the boss but yeah is a sort of enrage skill room wide attack, someone told me if you are being hit by 5 AOES it trickers that attack. Have yet to see the description for it. I can say, is not an insta wipe but maybe one healer alone may not be able to counter that, not sure. Our group was, two healer and two BLM and yep we finished the lvl 41-50no problem actually
