12/21 Update: Ride on! Vengeance of Holy Mother

I had a terrible start to my second run. Just as I was going down from the campship, the MPA drops from 12/12 to 7/12. Someone starts the teleporter regardless, as everyone scrambles back up to the campship (I assume in the hopes of hopping into another, nearly full MPA); it does eventually go back up to 12/12, but the majority of the party doesn't show up in the mission until like a minute has passed. Needless to say, we failed Phase 1.

Second time I broke even more cubes, others actually tried this time... took 5000 damage and others took nearly 9000. One guy took 3000 though so not sure what's going on.

It's a DPS check. I've played enough FFXIV to know how this shit works - it's no different than how Cloud of Darkness' own DPS check ultimate works in WoD.

Everyone needs to break the cubes to negate the attack, otherwise it wipes.

Could well be some other mechanics that aren't found yet I guess.

Each hand enables Mother to use attacks that are specific to that hand - killing those hands removes whatever attacks they had access to.

Example: the Double "Cage of Death" attack goes away if Double's hand is killed, you stop getting random meteors shoved in your face if Elder hand is killed, blue swords of death and blueberry sherbet floor boom goes away if Loser's hand is killed, etc.

You can tell which one is which by what adorns them: Castle Gate Bracelet is Double, Mothra Wristlets is Apprentice, Turtle Fingers is Elder, Feathered Wings is Loser.

What about set bonus? Is there none?

60 DEX from what I saw on twitter.

As good as none then heh. So I guess I'm waiting to see how Union Units turn out.

Oh and someone parsed Mother.

Phase 2 is estimated to have 105m HP :wacko:

How much does PD have? I'd like to compare, if possible.
