So is ct the towers or region?

**The Stig** · 2014-07-25 17:48

I think it's zone

**Lokus** · 2014-07-25 17:57

Why do people in CT2: Electric Boogaloo still insist on placing puddles in Syclla and the black orb for levitation in Xandes way outside if melee range? Fucking shit, just making the fight last longer. Same thing with the people that immediately jump to the outside platforms on the 2nd Boss after the robots are killed when they could have been attacking instead of twiddling their thumbs in their asses for 30 seconds.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-25 18:01

We had 2nd boss down to like 3% on multiple occasions before the whole outer ring thing. While it's annoying, having to do the outer ring shit TWICE because DPS is just that bad is the absolute worst.

**Skai** · 2014-07-25 18:59

Didn't even know twice was possible. Holy crap that's unbearably bad.

Because it's easier for the 2 melee and the tank to run out than for the 5 ranged/healers to run in.

Also getting frozen close to Scylla is just asking to eat a topple, nvm that people are less likely to even notice you frozen among the melee cluster and have a harder time hitting you with a fire tether if they have to drag it thru the boss.

Breaking news, mechanics favor ranged DPS over melee DPS, more at 11.

Its about 50/50 from what I seen. But yea drives me insane when when morons insist on putting the circles on the edge of the arena making the boss take a good deal longer since no melee dps on the boss, every time he does black circles.

**Rollercoaster** · 2014-07-25 21:35

I had the MT (ours) die during that last fight because the bard was running away as far as possible with the black circle and the tank didn't make it in time.

**Raldo** · 2014-07-25 21:56

Is that levitation circle damage split amongst the people it hits, or is the damage static?

I used to always try to stay the hell out until it hit because it did damage, but now some people are saying to get in because it's split?

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-25 22:06

It's split. Maybe not perfectly evenly per person, but you definitely notice the difference if someone eats it solo or with under 4 people.

That's when you just say "screw it, let him eat it solo" and run to another group's pad.

Thought I'd be smart and just clean our stables when they dropped to poor status to help keep costs down and such. lolnope, takes two brooms to clean the thing when it's dirty.

I've cleaned it with 1 from Poor.

I don't know what the statuses are, it went to Good, so maybe there's statuses above like "Excellent" and "Awesome" and "OCD".

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-26 12:15

Poor Fair Good

**dejet** · 2014-07-26 12:42

Good is the beat. Keep it there for best exp.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-26 17:58

Proof that Animus means shit: 123 Gae Bolg Animus DRG in Ifrit HM.

**Kaisha** · 2014-07-26 18:19

If you're not using an Alla/High-Alla/Levi/Ramuh weapon I typically just brace for the worst. Levi weapon being a stretch given how easily you can get carried in that.

And for complaint: Ramuh weapons not being 100%. 2.3 loot progression is so god damn fucked up, and his weapons make for some damn nice glamor.

Since when does any stage of relic mean shit?

To date the most difficult part of the entire process, from NQ relic to Novus, is still Titan HM.

**Seravi Edalborez** · 2014-07-26 18:26

I had some naive hope that putting that much time/effort/money-or-effort(Novus) into it would make someone un-bad.

**Niiro** · 2014-07-26 20:21

Does Release actually have any effect on fishing results or is it just to not crap up your inventory with fish you don't want?
