Took a few tries to get the fight down but man is that fun. I would not recommend anyone DF that fight.


So fun.

Seriously?

That's just an AoE fest. Of the most obnoxious kind, since some things are random.

I'm going to give it a few tries as black mage, but I doubt anything will change. I'd rather fight Titan back when almost no one had relics than this.

whats it drop?

Sorry for hijacking your thread but anyone know how to deal with Aetheric Boom?

You have to share the damage with people.

The orbs are linked... walking into either end will pop them. You need a couple people to talk into them together so no one dies. If any linked orbs touch it is game over.

There is 2 links, then 3, then 4. For the 4 links we used tank LB (wtf? inorite...) and split the groups up into sections. I am sure it could be done without the tank LB but it made it way easier. There is very little time to deal with those 4 before they kill you.

It is possible that tanks could eat more of them but our method worked so we didn't test anything else.

Attempted this in DF last night. "Rainbow" the tank got all pissy and rage quit after the 2nd try.

Sorry dude, but not everyone can be super pro on first try, on day 1 of new content.

Uh? The fight has a rather set pattern.

I've been trying for a while and, from what I've seen, Shriek and Ifrit dashes are random. Sometimes they go straight in the tank's face.
Wouldn't be an issue if not for the fact that you can barely see Ifrit in that chaos.

The Magitek beam and Eruption, also randomly targets people. I think it's very frustrating to heal when if you're unlucky, you have to move all the time, while the tank takes high damage from even normal hits.
