The blow-back of the playerbase perpetuating their silly raid-poking etiquette of the early days has finally arrived in full force.

Welcome to the new age. Have fun re-indoctrinating everyone again to stop the poking meme for future raid events.

I'll still be here cruisin' along doing what I do best, nuking the fuck outta pests. The way it should've always been done.

download a app called Puffin, it is a browser that allows you to "request" the web page you view to be non-mobile version of the web pages.
They actually use another term but you get the idea. it is clumbersome, ie no mouse, but you can still use it normally, all functions work, just scrolling takes a bit to get use to. like i said, it good in that is subtle and if you just using raid points/gather points it's fine, heck i play 2-3 games using it, so i consider it user friendly.

If you want to do your own research you just need to get a browser that allow you to request non-mobile version of web sites/pages.

Seeing how normal non-special bosses spawned by people by running event maps still die, maybe someone will actually poke melted bosses too, especially that lot of people hit snows and lose RBs the same as I do.

100k damage should be easily managable for most players that have been around for a while. But, just look through the raidbosses available, and you'll see plenty where the one who spawned it didn't even deal a SINGLE point of damage.. Sorry, but fuck that, I'm not going to give them some free "finder reward".
Too bad to those who already put some raidpoints in on such bosses, but I'm not going to help them, they can easily investigate whether the spawner is a leech or not. It's not like those bosses are gone within the 10 seconds it takes to check that participants list.

Reducing a raid bosses' activation rate may be somewhat useful in increasing your survivability, but I suspect his debuff squad revolves more around the ATK-debuff ability found on Bonci, Cherry, Cherry Sage, Pitahaya and Dahlia.

Hmmm, my Bonci is already in use on my Counter Squad (300-500k damage to the lvl 90 Snow Beetle, my other three squads combined don't even fare half as well!), but maybe I should level my Cherry Sage and put her and Dahlia together with some dodge girls in a new squad.

They reap what they sow.

Anyway, it's not so much that these new raid bosses have a ton of health, but they have a ton of attack too. Even my rainbow teams don't last long, and I can only manage a bit over half a mil damage.

... Granted, Helenium is currently in my helper team. For those unaware, Helenium is by far the weakest rainbow, putting her at just below Lavender as far as TP. That's how weak she is.

I'm gonna ampy her next after Strawberry/Daisy are done. It's criminal for her to be that low.

I actually do have a free spot at the moment. Feel free to add me if you want.

Her ATK is pretty high though, with a very decent trigger rate for a very decent AOE attack. But her Counter is a bit weak, she has low Defense and her other passive (more +ATK) hardly supports it. But paired with Anemone, and maybe also Bonci or Dahlia, she should really shine.

Send you request, but I send a bit of them to other people too, so no clue how it works.

My 320K TP is more or less balanced over all 4 squads, cause I decided that I rather have 4 80K squads that can do stuff, rather than one strong and 3 weak dying to easy on Ultimate or 14-X campaign maps. So on those 80/90 snow bosses I barely do around 40K-80K depending on luck per squad and 200K-300K total on 1 RB.

Someone just finished my RB 1min before it escaped. I waste 3 raid point on it and some of my allies spent at least 2. I just don't know who it was nor if he will see it one day but just thanks. Thanks a lot.

That's the most interesting part actually, the TP of the four squads isn't too far apart, ranging from 103k for the Trigger squad to 111k for my helper squad. The countersquad comes third in that ranking, at 109k TP. But, is three times as powerful against Snow Beetles as the other squads.
If my squads survived a few more rounds, the "weakest" 103k TP squad would probably creep up in the ranking, since that's the triggersquad, and Fritillaria needs a few rounds to get to her full potential.

I never understood the poke with a single girl thing, except for Seed-Bearers.
Normally I try to hit a RB with a team that will do maybe 10-20% of its total HP because when we have just normal random spawns of maybe typically level 65-75 Seedy Seeds, they die pretty quickly (2-3 people) if I hit them very hard. But when we have a spawnable RB event on, there are going to be more RBs and it becomes imperative to hit them harder.
I can only get to 400-500k on the current Beetles though.

At a best guess, some combination of counters (so multiple attacks responding to boss aoes), enemy ATK down, and direct boost to RB ATK would probably be optimal. The best I could do with units I have would probably be something like Cherry Sage, Bridal Onci, Cyrtanthus, Anemone, and Snapdragon, but 3 of those aren't leveled enough to be useful right now.

I'll almost certainly end up with excess bells; I am not hoarding them by any means but no point in spawning another RB when there's several already up that people are struggling to finish off. Still doing ok towards event goals; I have all jewelry and Sandersonia with all blooms, and 8K in the bank - shooting for about 20K (all manyus and most of the ampys).
