for towers on 2nd phase I seen people say you don't need to push mobs to the towers you need to kill, apparently you kill them after the correspondent tower on the water side has been poisoned for 3rd phase, the towers I seen ppl say you need to kill them in a specific order if you don't have enough dps to kill them roughly at same time You also skipped last phase after the 2 towers, where some walker mobs gets spawned at the edge opposite of where the boss was, the boss got a dp buff and takes way less damage but you can still finish it up instead of doing the mechanic. (idk what the mechanic is, I think divios party just killed the walkers and that was it) Just leaving this here in case you somehow can revise your guide for when these mechanics are 100% confirmed on how they work

You're completely right, stepping on the tethers/orbs temporarily removes the DP buffs from the boss. Choice and the BDOfoundry/grumpcricket guides completely miss this, apparently because they just outDPS the mechanic.

we wiped twice on this mechanic even though we knew what we were supposed to do, the boss and room do a lot of damage during this stage and eventually a oneshot mechanic if u take too long, going back and forth between the orbs and mob spawns wasn't working The strat I proposed was to leave 1 person killing the spawned mobs at the end of the arena, while the other 4 just dps the boss and stay around the light orbs, that made removed the useless movement between orbs -> mobs -> orbs from our party and we finally managed to actually dps him (because he loses the dp debuff for 5 seconds at best before he gets it back) This worked pretty well, so ye, if you're struggling, just leave 1 person killing the walkers and rest does dps + orbs

no, everyones gear score would be too low
