    Moogle Fight: Threat after Astral Flow

    Does anyone know if the threat generated while killing the moogles during the first phase persists through and after astral flow?

    I'm puzzled as to why I have green threat on at least half of the moogles even after I flash (and hit at least 6 of them), AoE Cure (Sacred Prism), and pop Rampart. During the first part I do help with DD, but obviously I'm not going to pump out as much as the other classes and so my threat on some of them bounce between red and flashing red (and sometimes yellow). Our strat for AF is pretty simple: we all group up near where we entered, I wait a few seconds for the moogles to clump up, flash, cure, ramp, etc., but some players have flashing red hate and I have green.

    Edit: The amount of moogles I have flashing red threat on after AF varies - there are times when I have all but one or two on me, and then sadly there are times I only have two O.o

    Is is a bug? Is it luck? Am I flashing too soon, too early? Yadda, yadda...

    Any insights or successful strategies for this would be greatly appreciated.

    They retain their enmity after Memento.

    They call each other for help though which makes the Moogle called drop their hate on someone and go to the aid of the Moogle that called them.

    Crowd control is the focus of this battle. ARC Shadowbinds and THM Blizzaras help.

    Ah, gotcha... thanks for the info! We will have to adjust our strategy so that our wins can be cleaner and (most importantly) more consistent.

    It's also good to know that there isn't just one moogle that randomly resets the threat of any one of the other moogles.

    Usually when i see the king pop (after I get sent up) you can walk up a bit and flash him, pop rampart all before the memento has finished. that will usually grab most of the moogles attention for a bit.

    However this isn't necessarily a tank fight... its a kite fight. the sooner your group realizes that the better

    Astral Flow is the term used to describe the BIG attack move the Primals do. So Ifrit had Hellfire while Moogle has Memento Mori. All the primals should get 1 Astral Flow move...not to ruin anything but just plan on every primal having one crazy big move that happens mid-battle that the party will have to work to compensate for. (It's kinda SE's summoned creature thing to do)

    the only 2 moogles that come to the other moogles aid are the GLA and the King. but yes the Hate is carried over from when they are killed in phase one to after they come back in phase 2.

    So only the King and GLA come to other moogles' aid? Great, thanks for the heads up!
