Did they change something in NM Haukke?

[Darksword]

Went into Haukke last night with our usual tome farm static. We swapped one member out - instead of our lvl 80 SMN we brought a lvl 71 MNK.

PLD SCH MNK DRG

Until last night I had never personally seen Halicarnassus eat a player. I knew that she could, after three of the "Fatal Allure" AOEs. But we always killed her before that.

Last night she was using it immediately after the SECOND Fatal Allure, when she was at about 20-25%. Every time.

Didn't matter if we waited to LB Amandine. Didn't matter how much HP the adds had when eaten. We took several whacks at it. The only thing I noticed that was somewhat suspicious is that she was eating our MNK buddy every time. Then wham! Like 8000 damage from Blood Rain.

Any idea what could be triggering it?

It might be a enrage timer.

[carraway]

You mean Haukke (Hard), right? I believe there's a 6-minute enrage timer.

[Velox]

She also eats whoever is closest to her after casting her AoE, which may be why she was going for the MNK every time.

I've seen her eat someone after both the 2nd and the 3rd, must be on a timer? Also, if dps is too fast on Halicarnassus then she'll eat Amandine really fast and then you all die. D:
