Binding Coil of Bahamut Discussion

[Arrak]

I'd like to direct people to this thread to see if there's an unintended bug that's arisen.

There's a small reset in the timing of his abilities whenever he eats a node. Sometimes he can pop off a High Voltage right after throwing out an Allagan Rot or something and it won't be in the same timing as the other High Voltages. We were at a point where this was happening once as it really just depends on how fast you hit phase transitions and where he is in his script, so we had a third interrupt waiting. As your dps increases, you should never see this happening again. At least that's my understanding of it.

What are we looking at as far as raw hp requirements for the various turns? I'm a late starter (just got my relic today), and I'm not kitted out in full Darklight just yet, nor do I have the cash to buy all the crafted gear. Will 3300 (out of party) be enough for a whm, at least for a few turns?

The HP requirements for healers aren't very strict for the first four turns as long as you are quick to react. With that kind of HP, you'll certainly have far less of a margin for error; for example, in turn 2, if you don't dodge a laser quickly enough, you might pop if you're not at full HP. If you do feel like your max HP isn't high enough, there is always the option of using one or two Hoplite accessories plus VIT-heavier food.

I appreciate the response, thank you.

BTW the secret to twister is in spinning in circles, OBVIOUSLY.

Have any PS 3 users had issues with Turn 2 Coil Lag since the maintenance? It has been perfectly fine for me up until this last week and as far as I know nothing about my connection has changed. It is very frustrating because I am letting my group down constantly with the DC. I don't ever lag Turn 1 and don't lag till final boss Turn 2. My effects are all at the lowest setting possible and I am still getting lag.

My group was experiencing some issues tonight as well, NINAbuser. For a few attempts, we were having people get hit by laser before rot would go out. The people who were getting hit would of course claim they were well out of the aoe, but you know how that goes. As raid leader, I was understandably annoyed until I watched exactly what was happening more closely. Our WHM (honestly not sure if he's ps3 or pc) typically stands in the center of the room. He was targeted with laser and moved literally to the wall and still got hit. We left and rejoined and it seemed to fix the issue.

I know the game has positional update issues, but it seemed to be even more extreme than usual tonight.

Has anyone gotten banned thus far using the Twintania exploit?

No one did, the only thing that happened is gear was stripped for those that got any and no one got the "binds that tie" achievement you get for actually killing twin the right way. The exploit however has been fixed(maybe, no one has said it's still working yet), however there are still issues with the fight that do not seem to be "working as intended" beyond the twisters that may or may not be fine.

Yep, I've run out of fingers to count the amount of bugs encountered during this fight. It's gotten pretty silly. May still be killable, who really knows at this point, but one of the worst fights I've had the displeasure of experiencing.
