[Thoughts] My First Run - Command Mission - Halatali

[AngelCheese77]

Okay! Second run today, and I learned a few things.

This time I kept all but switched the LNC with a THM, all of us synched to 23.

The Disengage command is almost like a Heel command for a Summoner pet. It makes them stop attacking and just follow you around until you tell them to Engage an enemy. But ...

With that in mind, you still need to be careful and babysit them. Case in point, on the second boss, I had my squad Engage the named, then when the water became zappy, I had them Disengage, pulling us all up the ramp. Targeting the first lightning sprite, I set my squad to Engage it ....

And as soon as that died, all three of them ran into the water and started to attack the named, and I DIDN'T tell them to. So it seems they will either just ignore you, or re-engage whatever they were fighting before they were told to Disengage. Meh.

On the last boss, I had to do something different to keep them from standing in the flame circle around the boss. Once we got through the rounds of invulnerability and fire sprites, I had the named aggro me as I ran around and took down the little flames, keeping my squad focusing only on the named. It did quite well.

Overall, I'm finding this less of Command Missions, and more Babysitting Missions.
