0:06 Scrub spotted. Security alerted. Great guide as always! I'm honestly impressed you managed to cut down the summary to less than 8 minutes and still cover every mechanic. (If you ever make your way to Orbonne monastery.....I want to see that video length) Something that bears repeating for the non-tank sprouts who have never seen a continuous AOE before: Get out of the corrosive bile!! You can run out of the spray zone of Cuchulainn's poisonous vomit! You don't have to respect it by planting your feet and taking all the damage for the full duration!!
The Hot Topic raid series! 4:49 Tanks! You can invuln this :D 7:30 I thought that one of the adds she splits into does this as well? I may be misremembering that part of the fight though.
Can confirm from experience that the small Echidna add can also cast Petrifaction. I am not sure if this is limited to the second (and beyond) appearances of the adds though (Yes, add phase can happen more than once, if the raid damage is acting like the max ilvl is still 200), or if she just does it if she's alive for too long. I do not believe the Petrifaction range from the small Echidna covers the whole arena, so alliances B and C might be able to just ignore it (those two probably aren't looking at Echidna anyway, if the adds have been properly separated), but watch out anyways!
@@Phoebirb I do know it happens every time she splits (source: paid attention the next time I ran the raid). I do think it covers the whole arena, but it could have been a cone I happened to be in. I’ll check the next time I’m in
I just watched back through all my footage and did another 2 runs in DF (also did another one unsynced just for good measure) It doesn't actually happen in the first split unless your DPS is *staggeringly* low. It will happen in the 2nd split but most groups won't actually see a 2nd split or if they do, they burst it down so they don't get to see that particular mechanic.
@@the_scrub Madlad, you went back into the void ark mines to clarify for science! The time before cast being shorter for the 2nd split is very interesting!

*"Kill Everything"*
Cuchulainn is one of the most hideous bosses in this game lol, why would they give that nasty thing the name of Ireland's Child of Light?
Like? Yes I do.
Comment? Yes I did.
