    dungeons/raids mechanics you can skip with enough ilvl

    Blighted bouquet, ancient quaga, outer ring phase of gyasa labolas, scylla daybreak, leviathan hm limit break thing, and you can kill shiva hm before she freezes the floor at all

    What else?

    You could skip half the cast bar on Ancient Flare (or whatever it's called, CT1 last boss) with enough DPS, which arguably makes it impossible for melee to reach the platforms if he was tanked in the middle.

    Either that, or they buffed him, or it's bugged.

    Classic example is Turn 2's boss. Wait for him to enrage, then just kill him. Forget all that plague stack management.

    This doesn't require high ilvl, you just need to spam AOE heals, preferably WHM AOE heals.

    You can skip half of Titans' rotation with high ilvl though, such a fast fight with our gear now XD.

    Not a great example, because you need wait 12m first, then make the kill. If you manage Rot, you can kill it in 3'36" ending everything from start to end in 7'. Today, I think much less, as long as from video to today, we got +20 armor ilevels patches. But not any skipping of mechanics.

    I don't think it's possible to skip Xande's Ancient Quaga. He does it every time after the meteor phases.

    Glasya Labolas' squires phase can also be skipped.

    During my ST run earlier this week, the squires didn't even pop at all. It was glorious!

    With decent HP and DPS, you can ignore doing doors in amdapor city. Making Diabolos tank and spank at this point.

    Did this once with a DF'd party on my monk. I was massively confused - but so much easier....!


    *Garuda HM - Shriek is mostly ignored, and healed through, now. The sisters are skipped too, sometimes - Garuda is just burned before they seem to matter. Often, the first set of feathers is completely ignored.
    *ST - once experienced Glasya being burned and killed before the jump pads had to even be used (and I still chase that ideal whenever I go in on DPS). Maybe we just all ignored the squires and I didn't realize...
    *Copperbell (NM) - Old content, but still applies.... ADDs completely ignored and boss burned
    *BCoB T3 - Ignoring all the mobs except the required, no matter how far they chase the group >___> *Wants to punch people for this method's chaos, but it's apparently done*
    *LoTA King Behemoth's meteor (for Warriors, at least...)
