Fractal 2nd boss

[Lollie]

How did this happen? I had a run the other day where the healer wasn't paying full attention (never noticed that the dps were 2 melee) so no one hit the tubes. Killed all 4 of us.

Well im assuming the the blm walled themselves, I run full vit (sush I know and thats besides the point) and had def buffs up only does about half my hp. No clue how the drg lived. This happened again when all 3 other party members went to pop the tube and none could, was locked out for some reason. Everyone else died that time though.

You can actually do this right after the initial swipe and skip 110 onze, and disorienting groan.

I wouldn't do it unless you had solid dps, though, since you'll run out of tubes sooner or later...

So I've tested this out some times.

You need not to bad DPS to get this to work.

When opening a tube before charge, it does not reset the boss rotation back to start. It just skip the charging part. The 1111 swing will follow after the next cleave.

The result is:

• the full boss rotation gets shortened by around 20 seconds
• you need to open 2 tubes in one boss rotation

This method works if your dps are good. +1 from me. It's especially helpful when you have 2 melee.
