whats a good method to do Kagen the mantis ?
Stunning Memento Mori definitely stops charm. But we just did it and not a single time did it use it a spell between Memento Mori and Gala Macabre.
Also spikes seemed to increase as his HP dropped from what I saw. Or possibly by the amount of times he uses a certain move.
What was annoying was the random nature of some of his damage. For instance at one point Hadal Summons did 30-50 damage to literally everyone in range (6 ish people) except me who it one shotted from max HP. Another time someone else took 2800 damage but everyone else took less than 200.
I think it has to do with relative positioning - I noticed that also (with the Hadal Summons) damage. Maybe try standing to the sides, back, or different distances, see what the effect is? I'm not sure, it's really annoying, that's definitely the hardest fight of all the T2/T1 fights.

Heka's Kalasiris said it needed verification on dropping from Akvan on bg wiki. My bad if already been confirmed:

Quick, find out what improved "Refresh" effect means D:<
heavy pouch of uptala = 12 heavy plates
Yeah at 15% or so, his shock spikes were doing 700+ damage. I thought at the time that Hadal Summons damage was based on your distance from him (always did ~200 to me on WHM) but perhaps it's something else.
If you have a reliable stunner (ours had chat log/lag issues) then it's probably not that bad a fight, but if you let charmga go off it tends to eat up the time. Ours was really messy and we timed out at about 12% or something.
Any chance of testing the Fast Cast on that? You'd need to just stand near him and cast Reraise, looking at the menu for the recast timer when the spell casts.
.
pouch was from zilart or jeuno path?
/rant on
does SE even test these fights? the tiers mean nothing some T1's harder than T2 hell T4s easier than T2 crab i swear from old path
BG Wiki has Neith as being assisted by 4 Neith's Bobbins. I'm almost certain that it is 5. Not sure if it varies or if it is always 5. I'll be doing it several more times so I'll confirm.
Phasmida Belt's the other drop off Kaggen.
