Post Your Complete Garuda Weapon Set!

Wish it was as easy as it sounds.

You need strict gear, people who don't suck, and concrete timing. You only have 90 seconds, countless times you will die with her on 1-2%, many people wiped trying to get it down just perfectly.

Even with patch, whats the big deal? People will figure out the safe spots and the quickest classes and we back to square one, waste of time lol. Infact it would be faster if you just did legit runs than this because at least you can pretty much garauntee a win, where as this you cant. couple resists = instant loss, couple incorrect combo timings instant loss. etc

Ah well, in the end it is a strategy, and we will then move onto the next stacking class quick kill strategy.

Nothing changes.

The longer the fight goes, the higher your chances are of wiping due to the proportionately higher performance requirements in reacting properly and quickly to the transitions. I don't care about people using a BLMburn to kill before Aerial Blast, but it's abundantly clear how much easier it is compared to dealing with what happens after Aerial Blast -- claiming otherwise is what bears correction. The initial development and video of the strategy was an interesting proof-of-concept. Beyond that, there's nothing interesting about people using the strategy to farm more efficiently before it gets fixed.

The gear requirement is fairly loose; this has already been proven by groups with AF, single melds, etc.

It's tank and spank with an enrage timer. Sorry if that doesn't impress me.

I've watched LS's hardcore BLM burn farm Garuda and never lose for hours on end. There's probably some big thing you're missing in your burn execution. Nevertheless, "tank and spank with an enrage timer" is still all it is. This isn't a strategy to beat the fight, it's a strategy to skip the fight and just get the loot. The real fight is everything after aerial blast and I can't imagine someone seriously denying that point.

I'm with Raikki on this one. I'm far more impressed by Kaeko's Mistress BLMburn (http://forum.square-enix.com/ffxiv/t...-Burn-Strategy). The theory and effort put into that strategy paid dividends for me personally and my performance when playing BLM.

It is easier to burn Miser then Garuda. You can get away with a lot more mistakes while burning miser. Sometimes the mage never has to move at all. The only difference is it takes longer to get to miser and 99% of the time you are getting useless drops.

Even mage burning takes some coordination and skill. It is still not zone in and auto win.

Once that is patched, people will move on to the next easiest way to kill her.

The only major significance of this fight is that you get a reward every time. Unlike Ifrit and Moogle where you don't know how many kills it will take until you are 7/7 at least with Garuda you know it will be no more then 280 kills.

20*7 does not equal 280 kills...... 20*7=140 kills ~.~ lol

It's not an attack, it's an observation. Make sure you refresh and reply faster next time as you multi-task.
