Beowulf.4360 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 whoever designed this strike never played soulbeast, or i dont understand the reasoning behind this fight as you zipline and instantly get split from your pet. the only thing this does is to make you lose 10k dps at the start of the fight and wait 8 seconds so you can beastmode again, its annoying. Why? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? You could wait to merge after you zipline at start and unmerge at like 7% of last mob on 66 and 33 phases tho I would say it is more against dragon hunters since they need to stand inside the boss for their damage Edited October 25, 2022 by Linken.6345 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blood Red Arachnid.2493 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 The strike is unpleasant for a lot of professions. It is quite annoying to do with Deadeye, Bladesworn, Dragonhunter, and probably another few that I can't recollect at the moment. It's very much a first world problem, though. Any mechanics introduced into a fight are going to be discriminatory against some professions in one way or another. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoftFootpaws.9134 Posted October 25, 2022 Share Posted October 25, 2022 Try being any ranger subclass running spirits, they have this problem in like 9/10 encounters in the game, but the worst ones are probably Keining Overlook and the Shattered Observatory Fractal. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? Druid laughs - and cries - in the corner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfshade.9251 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 There's this rare concept I came across in my long years of playing the game: having multiple DPS specs/classes and picking the one, which I think works best in the encounter. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's rare not because it's an uncommon idea, but because of how many players can actually do it. To raise, equip, learn, and enjoy multiple professions requires quite a bit of time investment. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mean, just pick Mechanist. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scourge works aswell, probably Harbinger too. Yet that's 4 out of 36 possible Specs that are reasonable choices for DPS slots in this fight. Even if I miss 1-2 right now, imo it shows quite well that this fight isn't very well designed 😕 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While NM KO isn't that bad, CM really narrows down possible builds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too braindead for my liking. Anything with a ton of signets in the build just looks wrong to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poop.4183 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 The fight is well designed , but it is indeed in favor for some e-specs , especially for ranged piercing specs (virtuosos , mechs ,...) And yes it should be adrressed , i played druid and having your spirits dying while you zippeline is awfull too , same goes for ele with elementals , ... very annoying . Makes those classes not desired at all for this strike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mell.4873 Posted November 4, 2022 Share Posted November 4, 2022 They really just need to fix Mounting/Ziplining and anything else that kicks you out of some altered state. Either completely remove any cooldown from the state change or leave the spirit/merge active. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
