A5s any guide? Questions!

[Clouse_Cleyra]

So i just entered midas savage to see how it looks and tried it like 3 pulls... Ofc we didnt got pasr faust xd.
So my questions is, is faust just a dps check or is there any mechanic? We kill both faust almost same time when hummer is falling but there hunmer just use his aoe that make us 99.999 dmg when he is about 30%.

Also is there any written guide for this? Hopefully that includes faust xd.

Regards

For faust kill one then kill the other, if your doing enough dps you should kill the second before the aoe goes off, move as far away from the marker as possible.

In the second phase, just burn it down. You need to tank swap at 3 or 4 stacks.

I will draw you a pretty picture tomorrow for the boss

Ty so we where dying at the dps check then

A = Tank Position
Tank the boss facing the corner through out the fight. When he grows he will hit you and give you stacks, on the 4th stack it will turn into an effect, makes you dizzy and unable to move. This is when the OT must tank swap and face the boss away from the MT and the Party, its best way is to face him north east.

B = Bird Mechanic
When the boss casts a move called Boost A player must run to the center circle to activate the guns around the edge. All players must then run into the purple AOE at B to turn into a bird to avoid the 4 attacks. Players can still attack while a bird with the boomerang icon, and turn back with the potion icon.

C = Gorilla Mechanic
When the boss casts a move called Bombs 1, 2 or 3 bombs will be dropped. Your bomb team must run to the middle to activate the guns and then run to C. (Or make it easy and have a healer stand in the middle to keep it active while they run straight for C since it doesn't stay active for long.) As gorillas they must hit the bombs into the opposite corner of A and then All players must stack close to the boss as the bombs have a huge range.

The purple circle
Activates the guns to allow you to use the bird and gorilla mechanic, they do not stay up for long if no one is in the circle.

The Green circle
When a player gets a target above them, they need to run away from the group to where I placed the green circle, it will drop a large puddle on the ground that stays for a while, dealing damage if you step into it. If someone doesn't move and drops it on A just move to the right corner.

Adds
They will spawn through out the fight, just get the OT aggro them and kill them asap.

Not my text and havent gotten into savage yet (blames the tank that forgot to renew sub before raid ) but think the text and the 2 links below it give an idea. Cant help on Hummelfaust but assume its a harsh DPS check.

http://ffxiv.2digitalgames.de/ might help as well to give you an idea which DPS you need to meet (hit them dummies).

Good Luck

Hummelfaust has an enrage timer and will wipe the party if not killed in time. The first two are easy enough that you should save major cooldowns to burn hummel.

The first 2 Fausts have a 50s enrage timer and Hummelfaust has a 1:30 minute enrage timer once they spawn. The faust enrage timer is easy to hit so just save all your CDs for Hummelfaust.
