"Boss uses normal Tonberry TP moves and is otherwise not too dangerous. Spawns adds every 30 seconds randomly chosen from BLM, THF, NIN. Amount of adds increases by 1 for each phase completed. Adds have low HP (200-250?) and can be cleared with a single aga2 spell. BLM adds can firaga and sleepga.

At each 20% (79% > 59% > etc.) the boss becomes immune to damage (takes only 1 or 0 damage per hit). One random player is terrorized and teleported to a set location. The boss returns to the spawn point and walks slowly towards the chosen player. If he reaches the player, they die and cannot be raised, then the process repeats. At this point, you must skillchain the boss and land magic bursts to make his lantern flicker. 3 bursts = 1 flicker, and each phase requires more flickers to end the phase. First phase is 6 bursts, then (need confirmation? 9>12>15). Damage of the spell does not matter, just quantity of bursts. We are unsure if killing a player resets the burst counter.

  • Reading my parses it is 3 Bursts for 80%, 6 Bursts for 60%, the majority of element would proc that elemental avatar to astral flow, so @ 80 2 fire MB and 1 ice would summon Ifrit

Immediately after the bursts are satisfied, the boss will astral flow using the element of the last bursted spell. We are unsure if the bursts all have to be the same element to count, or if the element chosen is relevant to future phases. We chose to use a different element for each phase and bar-spell that element to reduce astral flow damage.

Sometimes on phase transition, one or more players will be instantly murdered by the mechanic. Frank said this is "avoidable" but it looks like a bug. Possibly related to adds being alive, or adds spawning at the same time as the transition."
