    Jumping to avoid a shock wave mechanic is too complicated? *shrug*

    We all saw the gameplay video. The battle mechanics are completely different now (not as dreadfully slow and clumsy as the current version.) That dragoon was back peddling and moving on a dime, and his attack animations where very quick. That kind of game play allows for fights where timing is key, and the mechanic suggested by the OP is such a mechanic.

    Probably won't happen any time soon (or ever), but I am sure as the game gets older (ARR of course) the dev team may very well explore different possibilities.


    Edit: wanted to add a suggestion

    Consider multiple fighting surfaces for a Titan fight. Each platform adjusts when Titan stomps (which has to be jumped to avoid IF your on his platform at the time). He can also cause tremors inflicting dot like damage forcing players to quickly move to another safe platform. Players who are not paying attention can get trapped on a lower level with too much of a difference between platform elevations to jump up causing the WHM's to have to heal through the tremor dot or just let the player die.

    Just thought I would share that XD

    if the fight mechanic wasn't that TOO complicated, you would have defeated garuda already.

    so, now Titan? ok let's do this

    Wait what? I never mentioned anything about Garuda or its difficulty. In fact this thread has nothing to do with it.

    I was making a suggestion. You know, submitting an idea and adding to the discussion. Your response to the OP was simply no, why, because its "lul" and would make your fight(s) harder. Nobody is saying apply jump to Ifrit, Garuda, and every other fight in FFXIV existence. This topic is about one fight.

    So you dropped your two cents, and I dropped mine. The difference here is that I thought I would add to the discussion. Other's have put forward ideas too (I like the float spell suggestion), maybe you should check if they downed Garuda too just make sure hm? If they did it's a legit suggestion right?

    Not trying to bite your head off or anything but I don't need to have full accomplishments cleared in this game to make a suggestion or share an idea. Yea, your right, I haven't stepped foot in Garuda (hard).

    Get off your high horse.
