Another Sil'dihn Subterrane - Intro

At the time of this writing, Elemental has no official PF strategy although I am trying to establish one:

  • The Materia DC strat is used as the base, with game8 to fix positions that are left ambiguous:
    • The Materia DC clockspot is intentionally used, because this becomes the default in Mount Rokkon and Aloalo Island for JP as well.
    • For Curse of the Fallen, stack goes west and the blue debuff goes to east.
    • For Curse of the Monument, the towers are resolved using the TMRH snake priority.
  • Mana uses a combination of strategies from different stratmakers and does not follow game8 for the most part:
  • Here is a list of differences between Materia and Mana:
    • The basic clockspots are different.
      • Materia and Hamkatsu clockspots are the same and this is default in Mount Rokkon and Alo Alo Island.
      • Mana uses the more traditional clockspot with healer south and DPS at east/west.
    • Fresh Puff 2: Mana follows ZizieZip's fixed way of resolving the puffs.
    • Curse of the Monument: Chains are broken west/east, with melee going east and ranged going west.
    • Infern Brand 1: Supports go north while DPS go south. The safe spots utilized are also different compared to what is used in every other EN speaking datacenters.
  • For clarity, the melee DPS will be referred to as D1 while the ranged DPS will be D2.

General notes to expect in PF:

  • The first tankbuster from the Aqueduct Belladonna is almost always invulned.
  • The Blessed Beacon (wild charge) after Infern Brand 4 is cheesed by having the tank stand in front of the boss with invulnerability.
  • PF will not do Infern Brand 5 the intended way and instead, opt to kill the boss before the mechanic wipes the party.

Savage​

Keep the following in mind on the savage version of this fight:

  • Upon engaging your first enemy, a global enrage timer of 24 minutes will start.
  • There are no revives, you will restart all the way from the beginning if you wipe.
  • Almost all attack telegraphs have now disappeared.
  • All avoidable attacks from mobs are now lethal and the auto attack damage from mobs have increased as well.
  • All unavoidable attacks and attacks from bosses now deal 10% more damage, which means that all attacks require more mitigation to survive.
  • All enemies have 10% more HP.

Phases​

General Macro​

There are multiple macros going around in Mana, but they all essentially point to the same strategy with minor differences in clockspots.
