FF15 Event -- "Monolith Warp" Mechanic is still broken

[Conquistadork]

Failing wouldn't be so bad if not for that fact that Garuda has WAAAAAAAY too much HP... I near fell asleep chipping away at her with a teaspoon until she does the AoE. Will try again later I guess, going to do something that isn't irritating for now.

That's because you have to time your attacks with Noctis in order to deal a lot of dmg to Garuda. Doing link strikes speeds up the battle a lot.

As for the OP problem, have you tried going to the monolith opposite to the one that Noctis jumps to? It seems that's the one you have to jump to, also stay behind the monoloth before the AoE goes off. That's how I survived and I also had a lot of trouble with the fight till I tried that.

If you still have problems after that, try posting in the bugs forum.

Don't the quests at that level award you with the i90 artifact gear at this point?

It's a bit later, you have access to the event immediatly after Meridianum and Praetorium. The i90 stuff is to prepare HW and so, then we get them later (we still get i70 and higher pieces step by step following the ARR MSQ after Prae).

That's not quite true - you get the ilvl 90 left side from your level 50 job quest, which you should be able to do as soon as you hit level 50. It's in the coffer that is part of the job quest rewards. Right side and weapon, you either have to purchase or do quests to get them.

To be fair, I kinda rush my alts. I suppose I'm confusing with the right side and 110 we can get through MSQ before HW. I solved the problem buying NM or HQ gear sold for cheap on the market. A ilvl around 90 is pretty enough, 70 is a bit short, especially for the boss in East Shroud. Now there are less lags, Garuda is easier.
