My first run was kinda a nightmare (thematically accurate, but not the point.) What makes the first fight so bad for me, is the general combat delay of FF14, meaning the subjects kept grabbing me when I was fairly far away from them. T_T

Yeah, this is the first dungeon EVER that I've felt compelled to look up a guide for. Every time I think i should be safe, I get rooted. Every time i feel like i move incorrectly and Should be grabbed i actually don't. Looks like the guide does not help at all :( not Happy's fault tho.

I think the biggest difference here is that the bosses are setting the pace of the fight more than we are used too. Reminds me of some Elden Ring bosses where you cant just big dick disrespect them. You have to focus on survival first over dps. I would love to see more of this, as it makes it harder to meta game the fight for parsing (as easily). You HAVE to account for more random variables, or needing to disengage entirely and focus on a mechanic since its not super clear.
@Hirotoro4692

you don't need to be a ghost for the line stack. in fact, the ghost debuff says it makes you take more damage from some attacks. as a rule of thumb on the third boss, i'm only a ghost for mechanics that necessitate it, otherwise i go right back to living form.

My group did this a couple times today and we're pretty sure the area the little guys in the first boss can grab you in is a cone. Sometimes it seems like you're not even near them, but we paid attention and it seems that you can be close behind them without getting caught, yet not that close to them in front and get caught. So it may be better to navigate behind them as much as possible. I also wish the little running mobs were a bit differently colored or something as sometimes I've thought I was in danger but it was just another party member on the field (and I do have names turned on, it's not as helpful at a fast glance trying to react as quickly as possible). As a healer main, the dolls in the last w2w are really wild. I both like it because it asks me to actually do work yet kinda hate it because the continuous slamming sound is kinda freaky, haha. I really like the third boss, though. Busy but feels good and rewarding to execute well.

I just cannot track the cups when two get possessed at the same time. Is it true that when the ghosts possess the cups, they are either 90 or 180 degrees apart so you can then follow one of the cups and apply that distance when they stop? There's no way they expect you to track two separate cups right?
@williamforristal7098
Ай бұрын
Take note of both cups locations and designate a safe spot for one of the cups with consideration of the other. Example: cups start N and S, so you know E or W is safe. Follow the S cup and where it stops becomes relative S so go E or W of it. Similarly: cups start N and W, so follow either one and just remember that to the left of the N cup is safe and the right of the W cup is safe. I’m not sure if they always start 90 or 180 degrees from each other, just designate a safe spot for one of the cups with consideration of the other and follow that one.

The First boss is not a snapshotting or hitbox issue, they leap at you if you are in front of them so the range is bigger than from the back of side. They never turn until they get to the very end, so as long as you dont walk in front of them when they are 3 steps away you're good.
