The PF is absolutely pathetic (O7s)

[Shihen]

May need to be extra selective when choosing a party to join. Discord, reasonable ilvl requirements, and a description that sounds level-headed are usually indicators the party will have a decent shot. Even if a slot is open, if the party leader's attitude seems off I'll wait until something more solid comes along. e.g. '[Duty Completion] O7S clear. Be able to do all mechanics consistently. Discord required.' vs 'o7s clear, low dps = kick, KNOW HOW TO DO VIRUS'. Chances are neither party is going to oneshot it, but I imagine the first party will recover from the wipe better and go on to clear it later.

I always picture the latter party disbanding with a 'lol virus prog party' right before someone leaves. Doesn't seem worth the time or risk, though some of them probably do clear it.

For Virus we're also having the additional problem of unfortunate serverticks - something that cant really be resolved by the group or their performance but is ratehr up to SE to fix.

Don't stack on top of each other. Stand side by side. If you are right on top of each other, there's a chance of histeria triggering. So far I haven't had any problems ever since I started leaving a bit of space between the DPS beside me. After we get knocked back, they don't even need to be next to me anymore. I don't know why this happens, or why sometimes when we stack on the exact spot, it doesn't work.

But you're on Gilgamesh. Tought that instantly gave you clears or something.

did you expect one of the three current hardest fights in this game to be easy or something?

Actually yes, it is fairly easy, the mechanics are all pretty much straightforward if you read a guide and do them several times, its the dps check that often walls some people off.

I'd hate to see what anyone in this game would do if SE decided we needed actual hard content then.

The fight is ridiculously easy, just Virus is the one mechanic that relies on ping so much, an almost abnormal amount that it's not adequate to be considered a mechanic in any fight.

The other issue is people tend to tunnel vision a lot and forget to pay attention to what monster is due next in the fight. Like we were progressing and our tank called out Air Force, but it was Dadaluma, so we ended up wiping due to being pushed into the walls.

Cool. SE please make 07s harder. Everyone here says its too easy! Make it ultimate difficulty please, we have all these wonderful pros who are bored with the game, and after all savage is really an easy fight. I mean, it's not like it's actually hard or anything, and people are struggling because the average player isn't up to the difficulty, it's actually easy, and well people who can't do easy content as it is aren't going to improve, so why not make it harder so all these people here have an actual fun fight?

Or do people really not get who silly it sounds to say o7s is easy? Maybe its just it's hard enough that you can't rely on random people to do it effectively, and that's why you can't get it cleared; the people who tried and cleared o6s aren't up to the challenge. If you keep saying its easy, then you are painting yourselves into a corner, because apparently the playerbase can't handle what you think isn't hard at all. Maybe you are actually pretty good, instead of it being easy, and beating that content comes much easier to you than others in the same way world firsters can do things that seem too hard to others, but easy to them.

Why are you reacting that way? lol No one is asking to make it harder.

Are you currently raiding?
