A4 Normal help

[LegoTechnic]

The hammer debuff sounds like nisi, so I'll assume 3rd phase. Nisi spreads if someone touches you with it and is an incremental dot, meaning it does a lot of damage initially and then ticks down doing less and less damage until it drops off. Furthermore if someone with red nisi touches someone with blue nisi, then they both die immediately.

Nisi is always applied on the two healers in normal unless one of the healers is dead, in which case it goes to a random. One healer should stand in the back left and the other in the back right, and they should more or less be immobile unless they are very careful. You can be sort of center-ish if you're concerned about AoE healing, just try not to move much so others can avoid you. You can still move to cancel carnage lasers or eat orbs, but make sure no one else is running toward where you're headed so you don't touch them. If you absolutely need to, you can mark the two healers so even the derpiest of DPS will know where you are.

As a healer you can still eat orbs if inclined, but be careful. In the 3rd phase there is a mild tank-buster that strikes while orbs are out, and if both healers drop everything to eat yellow candies the tank can go splat.

Also be aware of Carnage Zero in phase 3 (random lasers), which will randomly target 3-4 people and hit them with localized AoE attacks. If players are too close together this will cause a splash attack, and if they were both targets they'll probably die (or come close), so make sure people are spread out decently for it. It happens periodically throughout phase 3 even while other mechanics occur.
