Objectively, The Royal Managerie Will Be Nerfed

Also "You should know all these mechanics by now" isn't necessarily true for new players who aren't going to have seen mechanics from every optional fight, or remember from fights they had to do once.

New players should know this more than the Vets because it's fresh in their mind.
Nearly everything that has been done, has been a requirement to do. Every primal was a must to continue. The chain things were you move apart
to break it, is from The Vault, which is mandatory. I can't recall one thing from that fight that was in an optional dungeon.
Even so, after you mess up a few times, people should by then know what to do or not do.

Unless people used Jump Potions for all this then nevermind lol.

And then there's stuff like the targeted giant cone AoE is indicated by a red arrow marker, which is usually used for stuff like circular fireball attacks. Although the exact same mechanic is in the Zenos fight at the end of the Ala Mhigo dungeon, but it's indicated by a tether there. So they might think they have to spread out and end up hitting everyone with it.

It only should take seeing what happens once to learn that they should be taken off to a side. There's nothing here that should be difficult to learn at a glance, honestly. And since most people hover in melee range during the fight, and the cone is smallest at the top, it's fairly easy to quickly adjust if baited wrong.

Just add a $3 jump potion for the entitled.

Finally! Cleared the 6th run and something like 20 wipes. Mainly thanks to the tanks and healers who all knew the fight (all with 310 items).

Jump potions were a mistake.

it is a great fight the way it is! sure it took a few wipes to get it done the first time but it is fun as heck and there is nothing better than feeling great after beating something challenging. please SE keep it the way it is!

well, some day it will most likely be nerfed, but hopefully this is a few major patches away

Don't nerf this

[DWolfwood]

Please don't nerf the fight. It's a lot of fun, and the final boss in a game should be challenging.

Just add a $3 jump potion for the entitled.

3 frickin' dollars?

3 frickin' dollars?

You're quite right, it should be more to pass people through a penultimate battle and skill check. If someone was buying gil to pay for a carry, it would cost them more than that.
Not that I condone gil selling.
