    Frankly... Why would ANY content come out in which the testers have not thrown all BLMs at it to see what happens... I mean it has only been done with EVERY OTHER CONTENT in the game....
    I can see if it was some new technique... but it's the same damn story...
    BLM burn is not new.... if a BLM burn catches the devs by surprise... then I guess all I can do is SMH
    The problem is that there is supposed to be a mechanic in place to prevent this. Why they didn't test it though is beyond me. Ifrit has a mechanic where his 2 hour activates automatically if his hp goes below a certain point. I had the misfortune of running into this when I was doing the 30s ifrit and my howling fist combo left him with about 3% hp. He popped his spikes then immediately jumped and killed me with 9999 damage.

    The mechanic is the same regardless of the difficulty. It is there to basically one shot you if you decide to skip the 2 hour.

    What baffles me is why they are patching this over patching other things. This will be the second patch that they are fixing something they consider an exploit in a primal fight. What about misers mistress? Why aren't they patching that so it can't be killed before it moves? I am pretty sure the developers didn't intend for people to output so much dps that it was possible for that to happen.
