Garuda after patch

[Auxalie]

Dear devs,


I am not used to write on this forum, but today I feel I have to.


I know the glitch in the Garuda fight was not made on purpose. I know you had to correct it, and I am grateful for that.

But have you seen what is going on now ?

Players killed Garuda as fast as they could with the mana burn style, in order to get all the totems they needed, before the patch.


Now, when we look for members for the normal strategy, nobody wants in. They are afraid. They say the fight is now too hard. They go raid because they enjoyed the glitch and now have other things to do, they don't want to help. It is really challenging now to find members for this fight.


And what happens when you are 8/8 ? The server crashes. People get disconnected. Very good moment.


I will not bother talking about fights based on the position of the players, which is quite hard regarding latency. You know it is useless.


So what happened to the players of FFXIV? Where has teamwork gone ? What about mutual aid? Maybe you are done with Garuda, but can you not help other people with it ? Now almost everyone plays for his own interest.

Playing FFXIV is not fun anymore. It is irritating and frustrating.

It is there, people simply aren't going to forget CC and AV for Garuda.

Why are you talking to the devs when this is a player issue?

[Auxalie]

It is both a dev and a player issue. The glitch caused it and players just enjoyed it and now there we are.

I know my LS has put aside Garuda to focus on CC and AV. We didn't use the BLM exploit either.

[Hachi-Roku]

But you're not mad that the glitch was fixed, and in your own words, you "know you had to correct it, and I am grateful for that."

What is S-E supposed to do here, exactly, with regards to Garuda?

i know i didnt even bother with garuda when the glitch happens :|

I find it pretty odd but I've noticed this game is really falling short again lately, even despite all the hard work from the dev team. I'm hoping the impending 2.0 really puts things back on track, we're starting to get fairly close.

The fight is full of latency, ( same for ifrit but atlast u can read logs when he does eruption and just run back even if nothign happen under your butt, but in garuda you dont know where she will lands) for example after Aerial Blast, is really hard to dodge her cone attack, u can also go behind her but you will be pushed as u was in front, i sene it soo mant times, that why still pepole use to pull her to 30% hp, so you can skip this phase (thats the most used strategy now) . If you want do it you also want some DD lke BLMs nukeing fulltime, whit other classes is pretty hard, that is not only player fault,is job balance aswell, i dont know on other servers, but on Excalibur probably half server has like 3 weapon out of 7 thanks to BLM Burn "glitch". that kinda pisses me off

Yeah one more issue here, as always, not all jobs are welcome in this fight ... /sigh
