Garuda Normal Needs a nerf

[Taei]

I think SE has overlooked this instance. When I get this in Leveling DR with new people, its really really painful because its actually a difficult fight that everyone seems to have overlooked.

Is this going to get nerfed? And why are there 1.0 Garuda mechanics in it that no one seems to know how to deal with and never shows up in the other two Garuda instances?

... is this for real?

You want the last fight that isn't a total zergfest to be a zergfest too?

Besides, if you are THAT bad at doing it, you can always go with undersized :c

It actually is very difficult. there're like 4-5 mechanics to explain to the newcomers, 2 of them are one-shot mechanics.

gears can't help you at all since you'll be synced. It's even harder than Garuda HM and Ex nowadays.

And this is why I hate all duty content. It relies far too much on alpha, dodge mechanics. I can practice this in OW leve quests. The best one is a level 20 in shroud. The AoE pipe shows, I run through the mob as soon as it does and am out. I still end up being bunted across the map. It's a latency based mechanic and no amount of practice will make people better.

The only time practice cant overcome latency is when the targets cast time for what you're trying to dodge is less than 2 seconds.
Endless practice is what got me my T5 clear.
Endless practice is what let me clear Titan HM and EX with confidence.
So an Australian who faces latency issues every day .. Practice can make anyone better so long as they learn from the experience.

Actually.... your question should be "When are more instances going to be difficult?" this game is way too easy at its current state. Things need to be made more difficult. And not rely on weekly cap limits, or dps checks that lead to insta kills to provide content that doesnt get cleared instantly. More creative fun mechanics that are also difficult please!!

They START hard, but get nerfed lol...

I never said I had trouble with it, please actually take the time and read the post before replying. The issue is when I get it in DR Leveling and 3 other people don't know how to do it and we end up wiping multiple times. Learn to read.

So instead of teaching them mechanics you would rather it had no mechanics? Its not that hard a fight if people don't stand next to the rocks, kill the plumes and cover behind rocks for screeches and remember to move in after the phase change when she summons the vortex. Oh and for tanks only they can avoid slipstream by running through her. Its like 5 bullet points?

The only mechanic that I can think of that doesn't happen in HM and EX is when she jumps to one end of the vortex and you have to huddle at the other end to avoid it.

And if I'm perfectly honest if they can't beat Garuda Story mode they probably aren't ready for anything else the game is going to throw at them so nerfing it helps no one.

What exactly is hard about this fight? Hide behind pillars, hide behind pillars again, los her shriek during final phase, win.

Oh and of course kill adds, but that's what you do to every fight with adds (That you don't overgear)
