Final fight too hard?

[MariyaShidou]

I only tried it once, get to 2nd phase, survived Megaflare, nearly killed him, then Meteor smashed down again. Then server congestion, congestion, congestion, congestion...

RAAAAAAAGE

[Reaujien]

Just completed the final fight - got it on the 4th attempt.

Really it's just a matter of practice makes perfect, and being able to learn from your mistakes.

Very fun fight - can't wait to see more like it in 2.0!

You don't need to be a Lieutenant to do the Legatus battle.

Finally Defeated Darnus!! So happy!! , After Battle CS's were epic give me the chills and the thrill of Victory!

[Punainen]

Its not too hard if you have enough cooperation. Darnus needs to me moved to the same place by the tank every time, and the mages need to stay in the safe zone.

So many things upset me with this thread.

I'm not even going to argue that "It's not hard" or whatever; I think A LOT of the bosses and fights in this game are hard. I have a lot of trouble with them, especially as a tank and not having much experience with this role from other games.

What I AM going to argue is that you're expecting to win simply because you sunk a lot of time into playing it. That type of mentality is for an 'interactive experience', not a 'game'.

You say you kept getting wiped by AOE's... so, what did you do differently each time you went in? Every time I fail a boss fight, I discuss with the team what went wrong. On this one, it kept coming down to my tanking skills, so people gave me advice on better tanking methods. Sure enough, we got better each time.

If you still fail, then ask other people! I know people seem HORRIFIED in this game to communicate and be social, but you'll learn quite a bit if you do a few shouts to ask about strategies on the part that's beating you. Combine what everyone has learned and see if that solves the issue; that's half the point of an MMO.

Heck, even I still haven't beat the fight! Something you need to accept with a FF MMO is that they are HARD games. They are not push overs and require a lot of failures. It sounds like you have people that don't like to fail and... well, they simply need to go play other games. The dev team has done quite a bit to make this game more accessible. At this point, they can't go much further, less they're going to make it a cakewalk.

No, a story mission shouldn't be easy simply because it's a story mission. Was the final fight of any other FF game easy, simply because it was a story mission? No, they weren't. They were all challenging in their own regards. We have awhile before the 2.0 beta starts; unless you're going on vacation or something, you have plenty of time to beat this fight. If you don't have the time, then I'm not sure why you're paying a monthly subscription for something you don't have time for.

TLDR; toughen up :P

I like how you say ifrit is hard
