It sucks, it sucks really hard because it could be and surely CAN be very amazing.

But first off its only a 24 ppl trial (so why again couldnt we get that with proto ultima as well?) and lacks everything that makes a raid a raid. It should have checkpoints - IE the clould doing an dps check/mechanic mid fight and we switch arena. Not to make it much easier, more so we dont loose the whole fight if someone messes up.

Also doing body checks in 24 ppl stuff is mean - we wiped so many times cause one party messed up and i just cant accept that, its beyond my influence what the others do. It sucked on Cid or Ozma back then and it does now.


I havent done the whole thing yet, but mechanic for mechanic as far as we saw its not that bad.

Personally i hate its randomness... id prefer if it had some more cohesive pattern IE it does a wind combo, a death one and so on. For example like its cleave-wind-stacks-cleave-stored wind-spread-cleave-wind OR cleave-death-spread-cleave-stored death-cleave-stack-death.
-Sure its randomness is one way to make it harder and usually im glad but most times you end up having several times the same combo (like she did the large beams 6x IN ROW when there were too many dead ppl to survive it) or does death for 5-6 pulls and then suddenly only wind, which just wont let me get into the flow of the fight as any ex trial would do... but thats me lol


And the gear again... its cool but most caster stuff is glamour only for me as its stats suck. 730 is nice and all but... why? next patch we get 740+, its again pointless gear, too late.
