Ridoraba 3rd Boss got nerfed ?

[NephthysVasudan]

It didn't need a nerf.

People are just figuring out that it was them...not the boss causing the problem.

[Miscanth]

From time to time he actually has delay on last lasers, so that's probably why you think it's slower now.

[KaivaC]

I didn't notice a change either...maybe I should do a run through today to check, but yeah, I don't believe anything in Rido was nerfed at all.

[ElazulHP]

Certainly hope not. That boss is great! Sadly, it shows the state of the education system here in the US though xD

[KisaiTenshi]

Did SE ninja'ed nerf the turning laser (sorry, can't remember the name) of Construct 7? It seems the speed even when it was overheat is slow now. Definitely slower than usual, it's not hectic anymore...



edit: Eh, Ridorana. Sorry, misspelled.

Technically, they can't change anything with animation speed without pushing an update to the game client. However they could ninja-edit the timing between movements without pushing a patch, as the game server basically tells the game client who got hit and then tells it to animate. Unless people want to compare recordings, it's likely that players just knew to anticipate it instead.

They either nerfed it or you got better.
I think you got better.

Spoke too soon

So here comes the client update.

[NolLacnala]

The first rotation is slower and only one full rotation, after that all are turbo speed and two full sweeps

Do we usually kill people if they can't do multiple choice math questions while doing other things in ten seconds to compare?

We should. That might motivate people to learn what a prime number is.

Jokes aside, what exactly is there to do that would qualify as "other things" and would therefore prevent people from answering exceedingly simplistic grade school math questions within the allotted time (learning disabilities notwithstanding--90% of the raid don't all have dyscalculia)? The boss literally stands there doing nothing for the entirety of the phase so the only thing you have to worry about is what he's asking you do to.
