Ramuh ex where to focus?

[Azalie_eriza]

this is a bit of a noobish question, but for this very confusing trial, ive been doing My research over and over again. Doing this with SMN and be numbered Lets say 3 or 4. Do u have a good system to check IF ur next in Line for freeing the two ppl that are stuck. Because its really confusing not Only to see if number 1 is stuck, but to see which three ppl have the lightning spark under them, where do u keep your focus to make this just a bit easier, because fight now i think i overthink

when I do it we usually just let the closest person free them. No need for numbers

Ultimately you need to be flexible. The standard rule of thumb is if one of the people with a lower number than yours has a ring it is their job to break the chaos. If none of the people lower than you have a ring it is your job. Now comes the flexible part. If those lower people are too far away and you can make it you may have to since you don't want the chaosed people to die. Big thing is if there are two rings there and you are one of them then if you are higher in number than the other move if you are lower stay and the higher should move.

With the exception of the phase transitions every other set of lightning rings will be accompanied by a chaos. So that is when you need to be watching to see who has the chaos and who can break it.

TS is very helpful obviously for the person who is breaking to call out that they've got it covered.
Failing that, I found it helped just generally for everyone to be quite close to breakout spot, then it's easier to see who's got a ring and will be moving in etc

For tether breaking, it's still helpful if there isn't voice chat.

If you are #3 and having issues identifying if you need to cover fast enough you should run in to cover, and if you notice 1 or 2 (or the field has it) you should still have time to run inside Ramuh line your ring up with his hit box, the melee who should have the higher or no numbers have enough time (and nothing else to concentrate on) to make the slight adjustment not to hit you with their's, everyone else shouldn't be close enough to center for it to matter. As #4 just watch #3 if they don't have a ring do the same thing, if they do have one stay put. The odds of needing a #4 zapper are extremely low, there is about a 60% chance a ring will be on 1,2,3, or the baiter not factoring in the 4 random field rings.

Smn specific advice, mark yourself #5 asap when you enter, you take the smallest dps penalty from having to collect orbs short of a brd if you are tethered (sprint no deportment), you wont have to think about it since you are the highest number you will always grab orbs when tethered, usually people are too lazy to mark themselves so taking the initiative pays off. #5 will never be needed to break chaos.

If ur #3 just look at #2.

If they dont have aoe and #1 is debuffed then its gonna be you.
If #2 has aoe then u don't have to do anything.
If #2 is debuffed and #1 has aoe then you dont have to do anything.
If #2 is debuffed and #1 doesnt have aoe then its ur problem lol

U could always ask if u can be #1 or #2 cuz they higher the # u r the more things u gotta look out for.

Thanks a lot for ur advices! This weekend im gonna down that sparky bastard it makes a lot more sense 2 me now, if im lownumbered, its easier 2 focus on nr 2(if im nr 3) and if im highnumbered i Will probably not have 2 deal with them but take on the tether, i shall try out both alternatives! Probably with fc members, this trial generally is hard to coordinate with ppl from df
