My first attempt with using the "JP" triangle strategy for Garuda Ex!

[Taruranto]

Triangle strategy is the one where you let one DPS tank one of the sister while the OT grabs the other?

Yeah, I'm not surprised OP, Garuda is already annoying as hell without having to make the fight even longer.

[Pooky_Pasha]

If you're going with MT pulling one of the sisters, you should burn Suparna, not Chirada, simply because with Suparna down the MT can do damage to Garuda while Chirada is being killed. Also, MT doesn't get double wheeled so they take less burst. By NOT doing burst damage to Chirada, Garuda and Suparna also don't jump, which allows for more DPS time on them.

Killing Chirada first, with MT tanking Suparna, probably is the most inefficient and risky strategy there is for the fight.

This is my preferred strategy. If it's all ranged, it's easy. If there is a melee+3 ranged dps, I'll try to get the melee to LB Suparna right after she drops, then hop to Chirada while the ranged and I finish off Suparna.

Triangle is a good, safe strategy. The only down side to it is that Garuda remains immune to damage the whole sister phase so the kill takes a bit longer as the tank on her can't do any damage (or DoT capable DPS can't DoT her).

we kill garuda when on the 2nd tornado phase. ya.... SLOW.. ur dps is slow..

triangle method

As a tank who mastered garuda ex I don't see this triangle method providing any advantage over the 'traditional' way...
of course the workload on tanks is lightened, but it falls onto dps and healer instead...
I'd rather they do their jobs properly which is to heal and dps, while I do mine which is to dodge/mitigate damage from slipstream/double wicked wheels

Yes there is a "traditional way" its the way the majority of the community does it, so its "traditional".

Then both are traditional way since you forget, eastern side of the worlds use Triangle method way more then.

Yes because the OP of that post was talking about the overall of both western and easterns preffered methods when he was referring to "traditional", wasnt he? Oh wait he wasnt.

[IzumiRaito]

The western method requires overgeared MT, so im sure this fight was designed with the triangle method in mind. Well western players have the "be overgeared or die in hell" mentality, so it suits it.
