We will freaking GET GUD as soon as they open up f*cking Turn 5 again. Before they decided to shut it down twister was only a minor problem for us, not even progression blocking.

Could easily be a picture of a glitched Twintantia HP bar. Nothing really proven here without more evidence.

I'm still !@#@ing furious. Middle of an attempt and boom, maintenance happened.

Gale cut sure did get a big buff in this version. Or is the party in that video using something to mitigate it? We need to see their gear and buff bars. Maybe water elemental attacks weaken wind? Do we have to wait to get our Leviathon Primal gear to beat Twintania?

The key in this instance is Big Guard. Gotta use big guard. Alternatively you could Jump just before Twintania uses it.

I'm pretty sure you guys will continue to hang onto lag/positional shit/whatever else you can think of as an excuse for not being able to figure out the mechanic behind it. Laughable excuse for hardcore raiders.

I read that on Reddit:

I'm calling it now, you have to beat ADS after you beat quarantine node. I've yet to see anyone even notion that this was beatable, and to put a mob in a game that you don't even have to kill, and that makes a boss harder, seems illogical.
I mean, it was pretty much decided by everyone that there's no reason to beat this mob so I'm almost certain no one has tried since a few weeks ago. Seriously, everyone's skipping this and not even questioning its reason to be there, given that it changes an easily scripted movement of 5 players into a high voltage that is near unsilenceable due to decreased cast time.

And replied with that:

Heh. Reading your post, it makes sense, like...
You dismissed this one as a "trap" now, did you? Because it makes the Turn 2 boss insanely fast and you're guaranteed to have paralysis on you, eh?
Good. Til you kill it, and obtain the 100% drop Twister Interrupter, you won't kill Twintania. So long.
Now this would be deliciously evil, it would. Not that I'd ever try it, I'm not into S&M, but yeah...still well played

Y'know, that wouldn't surprise me. Just look at Ozma from FFIX--you've gotta kill all of the Land Spirits before you can feasibly attack him. Maybe you need to kill everything in Turn 2 to weaken Twintania's Twister? Or that Quarantine Node is just a clever troll by SE. Both are equally likely.

And when all else fails, plug your controller in port 2! That way she can't read your mind!

I really don't think it would be a beat this in x turn to make turn 5 work, unless you get some kind of item drop from doing it. Keep in mind that aside from saving your progress as "completed" there isn't really anything else to doing something in one turn vs another. For example, if you had 4 people down turn 2 one way and another 4 people down turn 2 another way, when you combine those 8 people together which "turn 2 completion" would it take? The leaders? the group majority? As far as lockouts goes, it is just a simple check, have you downed X boss? no then you can proceed.

Again, unless you get some kind of item, buff, equipment, etc dropped from a prior turn I would have to call BS on it having anything to do with turn 5. Feel free to kill it and see what happens, but I doubt there is anything you need from a prior turn.

Sidenote, aren't there people that do datamining? wouldn't someone have discovered "Item of twister invulnerability" inside the game files SOMEWHERE already?
