    I think the problem is that there isn't enough dps with a single player to kill the boss before the soldiers die. If you can heal, then its perfectly soloable, but if you can't you are SOL.

    That said you can just queue to run it normally, I agree that it doesnxt need to be nerfed for solo play

    Doable but tedious. The fight is really slow since the boss takes next to no damage from your own attacks and cannons only deal 2k damage per a shot. This boss by itself takes more than 20 minutes and you can do the whole dungeon faster by just queuing up into DF.

    Farming the lumber for CRP crafts is the main reason why this boss is annoying because if you queue up with randoms you're obviously going to have no guarantees you'll actually get the stuff.

    I've decided to wait until BLU can just solo the entire instance to do that because their instakills do work on the boss.

    Ironically, the best way to deal with Cuca Fera is to bring a Blue Mage to cast Missile on it until it's down to 1% and then murder it with cannons.

    Thank you, best advice ever. I was trying to learn Diamond Back, me and a friend of mind could not for the life of us beat it before the soldiers die.

    Common sense is not so common anymore.

    Alternatively use screw tail, you should have enough time to get it once

    OMG yes, it's so dumb that you can go through curb stomping the rest of the dungeon but you fail on this boss because of the toiler paper NPCs. I remember unsyncing this when the first set of blessed tools came out and trying to solo it for the lumber. Even then I could curb stomp the rest of the dungeon and didn't take damage from his attacks. Just the stupid NPCs on that fight that ruined it all. If they could buff those up when you're unsync, then I think that's all it would need. I'm okay if the fight takes a while. Just frustrating to lose for something out of your direct control.

    If you go as a healer (for the relic), then just heal the canons and NPCs while you spam the canon button (DoT's couldn't hurt either). If you're not a healer, but can bring someone with you, just have them heal and take care of adds while you focus down the boss using a canon. The instance was definitely not intended for solo play, but once I found out that you just need to heal the people there, I was finally able to clear it.

    The trick is to kill the loose aevis that comes after the party members.. but you gotta hope they kill the one coming after you as well because your cannon wont reach the one coming towards you.
