[@cruzerion]

It looks absolutely overwhelming, but since the time between the ground marker appearing and the attack going off its very easy to dodge. After healing this fight twice I tried it as black mage without getting hit once by this mechanic. There's one earlier in the fight that's just a sequence of big explosions that I find way worse despite being visually simpler

[@weebcraft6829]

The "X on Rokujou" attack is actually super easy as long as you read the number when he's casting Once: Wait at the edge of the middle section of his line, once it goes off, go under him Twice: Wait at the wider side of where the two lines cross, go under him after both lines go off Thrice: Go to the narrow side of where the first 2 lines cross, WAIT THERE because the explosion is gonna be huge Do this and you never have to worry about solving the clouds

[@shamrocksardonic2582]

For black mage it at least isn't really that bad. If you have your stats set up well you can slidecast through most of it and if not you just switch to 'I now have 8 instantcasts' mode and move through it while casting.

[@justsomelonelykaiser5734]

A test of your reflexes, the boss.

[@Zanador]

These are my favorite kinds of mechanics honestly. They're not actually that hard but they're fun and make you feel like a total gamer when you dodge everything. They're also extremely clear so if you get hit or killed by them you know exactly what killed you - you stood in the shapes.

it looks a lot worse than it actually seems! u got 2 triple cast charges and like 3-4 more instants from xeno/swiftcast. but if u had used ur instants up before this for some reason then u might have some trouble. u generally keep only 1 triple cast off CD though if u dont know the fight so u should always have instants available
