    I have seen all sorts of strats for this trial but I believe simple is best. Tanks north, dps south, healers east/west for both meteors and Nightfalls. As for the full and new moon phases comboing with the bright and dark blades, just know you can survive an accidental blade but you won't likely survive an accidental moon phase so you should concentrate on what phase she is in if you get confused.

    Sounds like a really risky and questionable strat. I definitely would never join a group attempting this, its asking for things to go very wrong.

    I've done 1/1/6 in an organised group, and it is possible to do it without any deaths. First you have to skip the first tank buster entirely, so there's only the one during sword phase. For that one, you have the tank pop their invuln just as the tank buster hits. It'll last until she starts casting her next mechanic (we were doing this with a WAR, so any tank's should work), which is north-or-south fans + Hagetsu, then the tank simply runs into position and therefore out of the boss's auto-attack range (she won't move while the mechanic is going on) and the vulnerability-up will wear off before the mechanics are over.

    Nobody said the obvious but just because you've recruited 6 dps doesn't mean they all will be good. Some DPS players in this game struggle to outdo even healers and at that point, of course, the swap from a great healer to a bad dps nets you no benefit.

    I was in a 5 DPS farm myself a couple days ago and we were getting slower kills than 4 DPS.
    People seem to have this misconception that more DPS=more damage, but in reality if that dps is doing as much DPS as a tank or healer it's not adding much.

    Tsukuyomi is already one of the faster ex trials, I wonder why people are so obsessed over clearing it even faster.

    You could use something like this:

    You go out during the day when it's bright white and you go in at night when it's pitch dark.

    And for me, it's much easier to just use her dress color than to memorize her words.

    I don't think it's as important compared to the Bright - Dark mechanic, since the moon pattern is always the same and always alternates, so it's just a matter of remembering which one you did last. But you could always do "Full Go Far, New Go Near" I suppose.

    If the purpose of a 6 dps group is to skip skippable mechanic X and party isn't able to do it, then dps is too low indeed.

    Ppl should join such groups if they go full ham and care abput performance and not just because they think 'oh, 6 dps sound quicker' and then stop caring.
    Because solotank/-heal comp is a more elite strat (i.e. harder), so idk maybe expect more elitist players in there?
