Binding Coil of Bahamut Discussion

[Zdenka]

Sector 7 - Quarantine Node:
Killing this removes Allagan Rot, but grants HASTE.

Incredibly bad idea to kill this one (+its the 4th kill minimum)

Killing 4 nodes and killing ADS is still possible, but yes, killing the Quarentine node and giving ADS Haste makes him pretty impossible since his moves become undodgable and High Voltage is nearly impossible to silence.

Does the ADS (boss) on turn 2 have a fix attack pattern like Titan? Our bards are relying too much on reaction time and they miss High Voltage once in a while.

I silence as a brd in turn 2, when i remember correctly he uses high voltage after repelling cannon. But i'm not sure lol, normally we silence with two brds and when my CD runs off i know that after repelling cannon he will soon use high voltage.

hello,

which comes first, Crystal Tower or Bahamut Coil?
i mean, which has the higher tier (in term of difficulty/loot)

Bahamut Coil is the higher tier (tier 2 if you will), Crystal Tower is tier 1 even though it's not in the game yet.

He seems to cast high voltage every 30 seconds-ish

Every 20 seconds. This however is not solid, because if he castes another ability it pushes it back slightly, but he will attempt to caste it 20 seconds after the caste before hand.

The nodes caste it every 25 seconds by the way.

Sorry for little noob question, but I just got party enough to try Coil Bahamut for the first time,

Could anyone explain the first ADS boss at start of tune-1? so my guess is that you have to have at least 1 PLD + 1 BRD on boss for rotation of silent him?
and then how to do with the add? it seem that in the rush period when add-just pop and we want to destroy it as quickly as possible, off-tank can't have enough time to build hate on the add, and it will go to attack DPS instead. DPS can't hold back either, because it seem we have to kill it before it reach the main boss or spawn more?

yeah, interrupt the High Voltage (make sure the silencers have enough Accuracy) and we tank the add right where it spawns, generating enough threat is not a problem if the tanks are good, they just have to know how to build enough aggro so that the damage dealers don't get it. and yeah, we also kill it asap but our dragoon won't switch (too much inactive time running between ADS and the nodes)

Kill the adds while they pop one at a time, you may have to give your tank a few secs to get hate. Once he pops 2 simultaneously just ignore them and burn ADS down, he should be nearly dead by that point anyway.

If your PLD is comfortable in a silence rotation then PLD+BRD should be fine but most use 2 BRDs for it.

Just spent the past eight hours dying to Turn 2 ADS.
First going in as Sch, later on switched to Whm. It seemed like no matter what I do the tanks keep going down. Unless both Whm keep a regen + medica 2 rotation at 100% uptime the tanks keeps getting three-shotted. Am I supposed to not cast cure I entirely and just spam cure II + medica + regen + Medica 2? = ='

Are you tank swapping when their vuln stacks?
