Math Blaster is my new favorite boss

[Kinazu]

Some people have Dyscalculia and are having trouble with the boss from what I've seen. However the solution simply seems to be running with someone who can help do call outs.

This is my issue with the boss sadly. Although my solution is just to sprint over all the tiles 'till I'm at the right number. ._.

The only thing I don't like about him is Disposal. If you have latency, it can be extremely hard to stay ahead of those lasers

When the fight was first explained to me, the explainer forgot to mention that it lowers your health to a few hp. I went in there with dread wondering how I was supposed to determine 43k+ health was a prime number. Lol.

Math Blaster?
Cool, looks like i can finally use my secretly unlocked Arithmetician/Calculator job.

I too love Construct "Can't Do Math? Get Out of My Path" 7.

Construct "Can't divide by four? Go tank the floor." 7.

Construct "Can't divide by four? Go tank the floor." 7.

Construct "If you don't know what numbers are prime you're not worth my time" 7

is Dyscalculia a thing? I have trouble with basic math (not THAT basic though) although higher forms of math such as algebra and trig never gave me issues in high school. How would dyscalculia even work?

One thing it shows is that a lot of people don't know what divisible by 4 and divide by 4 mean. Seems almost every time people are asking "WTF? how do I divide 3 by 4?" when that's not what was asked.

when did everyone become such jerks? It's not the math, its the fact that you're asking people to DPS as well as do math with a moderate time limit. People also don't get that you are supposed to stand in one instead of tap it and keep adding numbers, as well as that you only add them, since the boss uses subtract and multiply. Some don't look at their HP because it's still at full and they miss the downgrading. People get it when you explain it, but its a bit annoying to see all the "durrr hurr stupid people" over an unusual mechanic the first week of the raid. And yes, i can do it fine.

I hope Yoshi adds this to savage with three digit totals and single digit primes as the pools you have to tap. Be forgiving of other people, don't crow over it, yeesh

Exactly, the maths part isn't the hard part. It's knowing that your HP has changed, that the circles add to your HP, that you have to stay in the circles, that outside of a circle can be the correct answer and that the boss is casting the opposite operation the player is supposed to use. Trying to read the instructions when the mechanic is already occurring (especially when it's not in your native language) means people will miss things and not understand how the mechanic works right away. When explained it's an easy mechanic to most people.

This was my issue. The math was easy, but I was having frame drops and some latency in my first run and died every time this skill went off...
