Midas' final fight is such a good time. I always come out of that raid smiling.
Man. Memories. When I ran this back in the day I was maining bard on ps3 because my pc died. It was a very different class at the time tho. We had this ability that boosted all damage for 30 seconds, but you couldn't move during it or you lost any remaining buff.
Brute Justice is one big reference to the Combaticons team from Transformers. Brawler/Brawl, Swindler/Swindle, Blaster/Blast Off, Vortexer/Vortex, and Onslaughter/Onslaught form Brute Justice/Bruticus.
There is some sloppy raiding happening there 😂, but it's not you.
I was actually smiling when I was watching while knowing what awaited you in A8N. Did you notice the VERY anime ending when you defeated Brute Justice with the entire party turning to face the camera as it exploded in the background?
Luckily, this Savage Tier has nothing so infamous like the last tier was. The Midas Savage Tier is where they introduce the Door Boss Mechanic in the last battle of each Savage tier. What is the Door Boss Mechanic, you say? That's something that a description won't do it justice.
I love the Illuminati story. It's just serious enough to be ridiculous.
"It better not get crazy when the music kicks in." -2
Oh boy are you in for worlds of trouble in the game! 😛
It was definitely different from doing it with Duty Finder. Fights on min-ilvl no echo are definitely bit harder but just enough that you see the game mechanics. And that you can die 20 thousand times on fight you think you know absolutely.
And you didnt even notice the dancing/jamming lights at the arena walls 😀
I m glad you enjoyed doing this in min IL no echo😊 these aren't aren't hard fights (that s for the savage versions of the raids) so doing it like this ends up being more fun i think😊 great video again, looking forward for the last part of the raid😉
If you are curious about who is singing, it's both Michael-Christopher Koji Fox (formerly the lead translator, now translator supervisor) and Masayoshi Soken (lead sound director and lead composer). Soken is the higher-sounding voice and Koji is the lower-sounding voice in pieces with both of them singing. They have a band called The Primals. And yes, their songs tend to be pretty fun to listen to.
Glad you enjoyed the min ilvl fights! I think that definitely gives a better sense of accomplishment and a better knowledge of the fight. I've gone through too many fights being carried, I want to actually get good at them.
Do it in savage synced fun times await.
Everytime I see a8, my brain automatically goes to "Jack missed Rage of Halone."
