Time to share strategies: Garuda

[Alkimi]

Garuda's Aerial Blast damage is entirely reliant on how much damage the pillars have taken. Each "chunk" taken off a single pillar represents a certain chunk of additional Aerial Blast damage; I haven't paid close enough attention to say exactly how much, but that's the gist of the mechanic.

From what I've seen you start with 12 'sections' (3 in each pillar). You need 8 still standing for Aerial Blast to do 2k damage:

8+ remaining : 2000 damage
5-7 remaining : 3500 damage
1-4 remaining : 8000 damage
0 remaining = 9999 damage.
