    they're talking about A4
    in savage mode if you don't have the judgement nisi debuff the orbs do like 25k damage
    they also put a vulnerability on you even if you have nisi
    meaning the mechanics way to do it is spreading nisi around to a bunch of people and each one taking an orb making the aoe healing requirements absolutely ridiculous

    since the judgement nisi debuff does a boatload of damage to the point of kind of hard to deal with by itself let alone spread around and the orbs are kind of close together so one person can sometimes get 2 to pop before they die...

    Turns out it is far safer and more effective to send out a few people to suicide into the orbs and then res them and use at reduced effectiveness
    than it is to: coordinate and deal with spreading nisi A to 3-4 people and nisi B to 3-4 people one at a time as orbs spawn because they need to wait until last second so they aren't propogating high stack versions of it, all of which can no longer get near each other for risk of blowing up or unintentional spreading, and then coordinating each person taking 1 orb in sequence before they speed up, all while the nisi debuff is ticking for massive damage, the tank is taking massive damage, and the orbs popping is doing massive damage

    Also aiding in people preferring suicide squads is the server latency issues
    I'm sure a great many people have suffered the fate of running back and forth through the orbs in normal mode while they refuse to explode.
    now imagine trying to do that in a situation where one orb not exploding in a clear spot means wipe and if the game decides to thing a nisi A and nisi B person are at the same spot they both die.
    Japan has very localized servers so it is easier for them to deal with than the rest of the world

    As I've seen in the videos, the nisi debuff gets removed after eating an orb.
