Can you technically softlock LotA?

[Doozer]

My partner and I were having a conversation yesterday about recent bad experiences in LotA (short version: people pulled early in Atomos fight and our alliance only had 4 people so we couldn't fight it until another alliance was done because we had to stand on the platform for them), and I had an interesting thought that I'm wondering if anyone has experienced.

In a hypothetical situation, let's say not enough people got into the fight area for B, and the stragglers got put into A. If there's only 3, they can't power the platform to allow C to fight their Atomos, and thus are stuck. A already finished theirs because C could power their platform, and naturally no one paid any attention to B not having enough (trust me, this happens). The people in B could get killed by the mobs that come out of it, but A can't because they're done and C can't because their Atomos is blocked (actually, can it still spawn enemies? I can't remember).

Since it's all technically one area, no one can move over to the other zones, and since not everyone can die, are they basically stuck? Or is it possible to return or something out of it?

I think SE needs to make it so you only need 1 person per platform like they did for the Ozma fight.

That and fix the auto teleport in thing. We get placed in the right party in later 24 man fights. Ozma, Construct 8. Why can't they do it for the LotA Atomos fight.

You could at one point but with the warp functionality allowing stragglers to instantly be ported in it's not much of an issue so long as you aren't missing a ton of people. If someone pulls Atomos w3hen one Alliance has three or fewer people however the rest of the Alliances should frankly just stay outside the arena and let them eat dirt till the spots get filled.

Not but see the stragglers get warped into the leftmost area, not their respective lane. So that's how you frequently end up with like 12 people in A.

no eventually atomos will summon iron giants that will 1 shot people

I did have that happen that day actually. Can they come out of locked Atomos? For some reason I don't remember if those spawn enemies (probably because I was too mad that someone wasn't on a platform so I didn't see).

Oh wait, but what about the alliance that finished theirs? Nothing can spawn to kill them. So they're done and everyone else is dead, then what?

Iron giants spawn in all 3 regardless of atamos presence.

I've seen it several times lol.

its hilariously tragic when it happens XD

so long as there is 1 person in or 1 atomos alive they can spawn
