Not with those mention , for one nobody even runs the actual arr primals on my server , so its not like I have had chances to go in do these fights very much as is. Titan extreme is my experience , so I guess if you want to u can just take my experience from that fight to widely cover the rest of them but ok. I was just simply saying can we just have more variety than the same thing yea some people may like platforms may be there thing but they arent the only ones that play the game either just like Im not the only one that plays as well so thats why you mix it up.

The fact that footage of Zurvan's fight prominently features the platform, and then cuts out with a big attack before he seemingly destroys the last segment of said platform, leads me to believe that his fight will in fact subvert the platform structure that characterized both Sephirot and Sophia.

Just seems a bit overdone with all hw ones having platforms

Keep the platforms, its the "look away" mechanic that needs to go. It doesn't even make sense...even with your back turned, your character is till looking at the target over their shoulder...just let me zone out in peace grinding for a dumb pigeon!

The /shuteyes (closeeyes? sorry, can't remember which was it) should have work in this case though, unfortunately it didn't.

All you have to do is turn around from the target. Even if your character is still targeting the boss and looking at it over their shoulder, as look as it's back is facing the boss, you're fine. But if you're character is looking face forward, you'll be petrified/confused...

...but regardless, your character is still technically looking at the boss in either position. It's just dumb.

Falling off platforms is just as big a display of skill (or lack thereof) as standing in damage dealing AOEs. The only difference is that it's incredibly obvious to your whole party that you fell off a platform, while you might be able to fly under the radar if you stand in an AOE.

I would like more variety in 4.0 where 'arenas' for fights are concerned. More environmental hazards and interactions that don't involve 'falling off' would be neat. With that said, though, I can see why the developers fall back on encouraging players not to fall off - it keeps a fight at least somewhat challenging even if people outgear it immensely.

Well, generally I only do trial when necessary for main story. Then I am going to ignore this XD

I have noob skill and better I continue ignoring trial hardcore and raid of 8 people o.o
