Gonna add this to the Holy Trinity of "Boss Music Whose Lyrics Are Only One Vowel". The others are Kyuubi's theme from God Eater and Mizutsune's theme from Monster Hunter Rise.
Imo this boss is pretty unfair for many class to solo it, like techter and ranger will have hard time beating this in 15 mins. The boss itself is pushover it just the time constraint make this artificial hard. You can legit beat this without using strongest weapon and armor, every attack animation, movement, gimmick of this boss is slow and designed to waste time and the reward is trash tier for something that require a lot of effort/capital to beat. I was expecting to fight NGS version of Malenia or fallen King, I was expecting vicious, relentless, hardcore boss but instead I get a joke of time attack bosses. I generally disike time constrained element like duel and all the bs like it, let player beat the enemy as they like and how they see fit without damn time limit, make us player lose fairly because of dying not because stupid time limit or dps check. This boss only reserved for speedrunner mainly and to even beat it you need the latest weapon only because once again time demand it, the boss doesn't hit hard, it doesn't hit fast, it doesn't feel intimidating, doesn't feel epic Fighting it I feel only resentment and annoyance, because it's just frustrating you need to use expensive min max equipment and class for this, by God I love my class even though it's not meta optimal class it just non meta class, even though it's not meta class I love playing it and have fun with it, but no matter what I do I can't beat it using that class because of time limit.
Rangers actually have a great time in Solus in group content, they can solo too. It was likely designed around the 4man with a decent enough gear (130%+ potency and know what to do), which makes it not that much of a time attack issue (can clear 13 mins or under). You can cut a lot of time just by knowing what to do and what rotations work best in the given time to attack, much more than gearing can do (unless you're comparing trash 90% to very high 150%+). The time limit does feel a bit artificial and I don't really like it even though I know they added it to incentivize people to improve their gear. So I will agree with you that the time limit doesn't feel great, but also have to disagree on the "reserved for speedrunner" point, since an above average player can get to 130% potency without much issue as long as they're willing to put in some time and effort on their gear.
@@Kean4144 I can say very confidently that was not that case, I was often defeating this with less than 1 minute left, often in just a matter of seconds, even in 4 player party, I am permanent member in alliance party designed to carry member for solus first clear or weekly clear and I never reach 13 minutes mark. And 130% potency is a lie, no way you can beat this with 4 member with 130% potency, was going with 160% + party and it still can fail not enough time. It's definitely intended towards speedrunner, because regular/casual player won't be able to do 13-12 minutes solus. Again I am doing more than hundreds solus run with 3 dedicated player everyone using Tisah and using the min max build 160+ potency we can only carry 1 at the time even so the bare minimum we can carry is 140% above potency. I am the ranger of this party and I don't have great time with it. Try doing this with public and you will be sorely disappointed. Don't look at the video of people doing this solo, look at majority of playerbase, I can guarantee you most player base will have same opinion as I, the class is unbalanced and only few viable/selected choice available to clear this boss.
@@gkagara hmm idk I recently went in with a group of players from fleet discord with 130% to 150% potency range and we cleared 13 mins first try EDIT: we're all using versch or neos astra, fixa 2 at most
@@Kean4144 I don't know what boss you're taking about I never experience 13 minutes clear on solus minimum weapon is Verz weapon using every LC augmentation on octo and I've done this hundreds of time by now, it is always 14 minutes something often borderline 10 second left.
@@gkagara My only guess for the lack of time is either your damage rotation or the team coordination, I can't say whether your team is truly lacking in any of those areas but judging from your gears you should easily be able to get under 13 min clears.
thank you
Good
