I would rather do Phantom Train or pre-nerfed T7 than this dumb fight.
    I don’t run on melee or even casters, but I honestly find o10s to be the least favorite of mine from this tier. It just feels too slow, and I don’t really mind the RNG of things like in/out or cardinals/corners or even the Exaflares, but the fight itself just feels so slow. And the add phase can literally die in a fire—I really hate fights where I have to go an entire half minute without even being able to target the boss because he’s doing divebombs.
    I know the Ultimates have phases like this, but at least they’re also vomiting mechanics at me.

    I guess because I play melee, I'm always moving around and don't really notice how sluggish the fight is. I do hate the add phase and the "dodge this!" phase immediately after. I also don't get why Midgardsormr is untargetable for 3-5 seconds after landing.
    I also want to try Ultimate, but I don't have the time to do it

    Same! I’m still working on my Foe’s timing there, since my group reopens when he lands, and it’s annoying to think I’ve timed it right but still lose a tick (or, to time it too late and reopen a GCD late ;w; ).

    With regards to the sluggishness, I guess it’s because he’ll be like “Okay, I’m going to do a spin”, and then auto; “Okay, here’s my tankbuster”, and then auto; “Okay, now I’m going to do my other spin/flip”, and it just feels really slow to me. Idk. ;w;

    I also want to try Ultimate, but I don't have the time to do it
    I really hope you find the time to do it some day. It’s a lot of fun!

    Same, basically (although I have not touched O12S). But I also hate how the fight feels "poor" and that just makes those long downtimes appear as lazy design to make the fight longer. It's just purely not interesting to dodge dives and ground puddles for 2mins. And it does not work that much as some kind of build up of the fight, as for the end it's just mechanics overlapping.
