Required to read Guides?

[Post]

Thanks for all your opinions on this. Thankfully i recorded the fight and was able to analyse what went wrong.

First of all, to clarify some things: It was Haukke manor, Boss Manor Claviger. It was not a single mechanic that killed me... the healer went afk before the fight and i didnt notice, so i started the fight. On top of that i got hit by his big aoe which i thought i had interrupted, but that wasnt the case. 2 things i learned in that fight:

1) Wait for afk players
2) Move out of big aoe attacks

I know my death was absolutely my fault, that was not the point of ths thread. Its just about that other player telling me to read guides... i dont want to read guides, especially for story content. However I will read them for harder endgame content though, just to not be a burden for others.

Yo, a cool thing you can do for lots of early game bosses and dungeon trash is use your actions 'Low Blow' to stun an enemy trying one of those big Aoes instead of avoiding them. This can help your teammates as well, so they don't have to also dodge. Stun won't always work, especially on Big bosses or later in the game, and enemies can only be stunned like 3 times per 90 sec if they ARE vulnerable to it.

Likewise, an enemy cast bar that's kinda 'shakey' is meant to be interrupted by Interject, and that can benefit you from reducing damage incoming to building limit break gauge to preventing a full party wipes on some later boss fights.

Just gotta make sure it's ready to use if you commit to stunning or interrupting.
