    For the merry-go-round Typhon, have Ulty's tank stack him with Typhon in the center, and have the imps follow the tank. Then, circle slowly along, grabbing the Aqua Breath stacks and avoiding AoEs as needed.
    A lot of ultros tanks seems incapable of understanding this
    They wouldn't move/reposition instantly, so all the imps stacked in front of him, in range of Typhon's gust before he spins. Insta-massive damage/death to all 4 imps and a slow miserable wipe (people won't jump off when I told them to)

    Yeah, I feel like I'm talking about Big Foot. He'll sometimes do it, sometimes not, but there's definitely a Fuck You, Mummy beam that comes out of his forehead sometimes.

    There is, some people say you can stun it but I tried with holy once recently when he targetted me... didn't work. (he did get stunned, but he resumed stacking after)
    Can't even sprint away 'cause he moves THAT fast. I am not sure 'what' you're supposed to do.

    General consensus from what I could see on the OF is that you just deal with it and pray it doesn't target the tank/healer.

    I know, I know. OF.

    Someone theorized that he only does it if no one has been mummified at all, but I haven't fought him enough to test that theory. Might be possible to avoid it if someone lets themselves get charmed prior.

    I've seen it happen even with someone getting mummied earlier in the fight. Generally even if it targets the healer or the tank you can live pretty easily.

    I wonder if you can pass the beam around to keep people from hitting four stacks, similar to Allagan Rot?

    I got the mummy beam of death yesterday when I was tanking it. That was a particularly awful run because both dps were BLMs. God double BLMs make that fight take forever.

    I'm still trying to figure out if there's any way to avoid the stacks that Wandil, the first Snowcloak boss, gives everybody with Snowdrift; there are some times that a person won't get a stack, but there's no really apparent reason. Rhe ice around the edge will give you stacks as well if you stand in it long enough, so I've been making sure I get frozen at a different point than everybody else if I'm healing, just in case things go south.

    I've only done Snowcloak two or three times and I have no idea how that first boss works, we just wail on him until he dies.

    Nothing to know really, just need to kill adds before they explode.

    In my experience, being in motion from the middle of the Snow Drift cast up until the blizzard animation keeps me from getting stacks. Asking around, though, this doesn't seem to work for everyone, so I'm not 100% certain that's the mechanic.

    Did Qarn yesterday , Final Boss glitched out and never used Purple swords and Mummy beam. It only used the random target sword attacks and the coffins popping up.

    We had Morgan glitch where he basically just stood there from 50% to 30%. No attacks or anything.

    Gosh...

    Well, what I saw today was a healer going down the pit after the merry-go-round on purpose, timing his comeback so he doesn't get pushed by Typhon's second Blinking Fungah that so many people seem to fail. That saves the party if that healer survives a couple of seconds being alone in the arena and if the others have knowledge that they can jump back after the stun goes off. Maybe this can be even more effective if Typhon's tank does this instead, since he has nothing to do when Typhon's blinking.

    Yeah I don't really get the timing on that (I jumped out around 70% cast bar, looked like everyone was stunned + Out but I was able to jump back in fine) but I've been the one to save the day on that 2nd fungahthing (BLM). You can just sprint and kite and you'll be fine for the 5s.

    Thoughts on best dungeon to spam for poultry (calling poetics that after after someone typo'd it)? I kinda feel Brayflox x3 @ 15 each might outweigh 40 from any of the new ones.

    Might be more worth to do a roulette once a day and get the daily bonus, and then go for speedruns or something. Think any of the current dungeons can be done faster than 30min for clear?

    Snowcloak took about 20min in a pretty good DF group with big pulls (MNK+BRD so not great AoE either). Sast HM took more like 25 in a not-as-good (small pulls) group, and fuck Qarn.
