FF15 Event -- "Monolith Warp" Mechanic is still broken

[CorbinDallas]

Layer 8? ... as in OSI? ... Application layer?
Yeah, I 100% agree. So, could I please have a GM comment on this issue?
Thanks

That's layer 7.

Are you talking about the part where she draws you to her? You just have to wait until her cast bar is almost ending and warp to avoid the AOE without getting drawn back in to the AOE. Even if you don't time it right, it should still be minor damage instead of a one shot if you're close.

This is what I did as well because it reminded me of Dun Scaith's first boss, which has a similar attack. The whole thing took me 3 tries, the first time failing the timing, the second surviving but noct dead because I failed to take into account of AI not wanting to get out of telegraphs. But 3rd time? No problems.

I guess I just got lucky. When Garuda did the thing I tried targeting different pillars but I kept getting pulled back. During the actual attack I guess I did the warp blade thing timed right and survived but with only a small amount of health left. Eos took care of the damage and I went on my merry little way.

I smell the aroma of "Will of the Moon" in here.
Everything works fine its just a Layer 8 issue, again.

Yes, I do mean the suck in part, where you have to teleport to one of the Monoliths. It seems to be seriously bugged.

A question: for those of you who were either lucky or good at it and passed ... What job did you use?

It "seems" to be just you having trouble with it though, which makes us less inclined to view it as bugged and more you just not doing it right.

For what it's worth, I was on BLM.

The way XIV resolves movement skills and AoEs makes it kind of inconsistent. I think I died to it the first 3 times, then the fourth I got a little better with the timing and survived with a couple thousand HP, which Second Wind and Bloodbath took care of. I never had any issues with Noctis getting low.

I admittedly want more duties with Warp Strike, just because the movement was fun. Garuda Nocturne EX for a Kingsglaive outfit would make me pretty happy.

noctis spam his sword when this part begins - thats supposed to show you that you need to do the same, how this could be bugged?

There is nothing bugged. Did it on RDM but it doesn't really matter on what class you do it because you have to do the mechanic right or it will kill you.

I was only taking 2K damage from facetanking the AoE so mistakes scarcely seemed to matter.

Maybe the stat scaling for BLU is broken or something (Figured I might as well make the most out of the class if they were presenting a combat duty).

I faced tanked it with SCH with no issues either.
