    so, blm burn strat goes public the evening of the 29th. next day you and a whole lot of other scrubs magically get a smooth no-death kill on their first win. i wonder how that happened. your rigorous defense of the exploiters isn't helping your case, either.

    but if you're such an expert on garuda mechanics, where were you 7 hours into patch? should've been you scoring that first kill, yeah? pity.
    7 hours into patch? Working, got home around emergency maintenance, went back to work after emergency maintenance was over, didn't get real time to play till after BLM burn was released. Pity me. After doing the fight a couple times with different setups, I picked up on things as well since it's not real hard to figure out, it's all execution. This is a team game as well so I can't exactly solo Garuda now can I?

    I'm not defending exploiters either as I already said I don't consider it an exploit. But if you don't consider getting her to 15% before Aerial Blast with a standard setup an exploit either then that's all that needs to be said regarding this issue. I'm for the patch as well so all this bantering is moot.

    There is a difference between doing the fight normally and having enough dps to burn her through phases while killing the plumes, making sure the pillars don't take too much damage, transitioning into phase 3 controlling the clones and doing enough dps to them to kill them before they port and 1 shot everyone without pulling aggro and getting everyone stunned/knockbacked, or moving as a group while killing the plumes in the clock phase while also doing damage to garuda, and than killing her before your dps run out of mp.

    And standing at the side of the arena, ignoring the plumes, ignoring the pillars and waiting for a small set of plumes to spawn allowing you the maximum amount of time to kill her before the other 50% of the fight even begins.

    Not saying either strategy is hard but i am not sure if you noticed that 1 does completely ignore the entire purpose of the fight and the other doesn't.
