T6 DPS Problem: Middle Bulb

[Nukocafe]

once you get used to the fight it's really easy to see the middle bulb.
at first it seems like you can't see it but when you pay attention to the "bulbs falling on the ground" animation you will easily see it, keep on truckin!

Our group actually tanks the boss slightly to the right and up from the center bulb so we can target it more quickly.

if you don't use tab, try this: hit ESC to cancel your current target, move yourself near the bulb and then hit CONFIRM.... see if it works for you.

Yes tab or hit left or right direction arrow on gamepad, 99% of the time it will target middle bulb due to being the closest mob other than boss.

Position your camera so that the middle bulb and Rafflesia are the only targets on the screen. Then, press tab.

My static is having a problem with the middle bulb.

It isn't with recognizing that it's spawned, but rather targeting it QUICKLY so we can DPS it down. How? You can't see it when Rafflesia is standing in the middle. I can't target it with my mouse. Do I scroll through enmity list till I find the right one? That doesn't seem like the fastest way.

I feel as if there's something simple that I'm missing.

Adjust your camera so that no other bulbs show up, usually top down angle, then use tab. In this turn especially it is better to have the amount of area you visibly see limited to only what is important...which is Raffy and Middle bulb spawns until Glazed honey comes out. Even then I would keep a top down after the bee is closer in range just to limit viewable targets.

Cure for targetting middle bulb --> tab targetting

Cure for being slow to recognize and respond to middle bulb --> none available.
