    Sigh, all this talk between elitists and casuals about enrage method being legit or not.
    It' s blatantly obvious the enrage method was a design flaw. It was intended to pretty much wipe a group doing it the normal way if they lacked the dps to kill it intime. They simply overlooked the fact you could wait for the enrage first before fighting. Instead of fixing it and making all the casuals cry out en masse because they can never down turn 2 again, they simply said: "Whatever, let them do what they want for now. We learned our lesson from this and will make sure that in future encounters this method can' t be used.".

    So, while casuals might feel like the developers said:" Go ahead guys! We support your method!" they actually reluctantly allow it and see it as a learning experience for future encounters.

    I like that you can read inside peoples minds and know what they were thinking outside of what they actually said!

    (You're putting words into the dev's mouths just like you're acusing 'casuals' of doing lol)

    For those still claiming SE intentionally made it this way.This is the way it is based on logic. There is a difference between a design flaw/oversight and an exploit, hence they can' t call it exploiting. The fight works 100% as scripted after all.Turn 2 was made by human beings, human beings make mistakes.If you have allagan rot active when you get hit by the enrage aoe it detonates, meaning you wipe. If you clear all nodes the boss will have allot of damage resistance and hasted voltage. Never once did they think to themselves people might wait till the last minute and heal through the aoe. People who claim they intentionally made it this way basically have their brain justifying their use of the enrage method.(All our brains justify our actions to ourselves one way or another.)

    Some people say it's an exploit, design flaw or an oversight; others will say it's working as intended. The fact is that SE have no intention to change it, because they do not deem it as broken, and SE have the last word.

    You might not like that, but that's too bad. You can't have everything you want and some people enjoy using this method.
