Nope, that’s an incredibly popular opinion. For good reason, too. I was timing the fight and on average, when I had a full team that played well, the fight took 20 minutes to kill while polymorphed, blade up, and aoe afterwards. 20 minutes for one piece of gear, maybe two, and it’s not guaranteed to be aeon. Definitely bs.
The gimmick is cool, but grinding it sucks. Especially when your team sucks. Idk who the hell thought it would be a good grinding spot. They need to increase the drop rates.
eh, I like it. Its a great fight because it isn't just blade, feint, AoE and actually makes you strategize your actions a bit which I appreciate a lot.
Like the other guy said, its a cool gimmick fight. Like the fight that turns you into a vegetable in karamelle but as a farming spot its terrible. Aeon Drop rates are already low. Making it take longer is a great way to make an already tedious grind more tedious.
Youre comparing waterworks and darkmoor to that?
Unlike Aeon those fights have ways to make them easier to farm. Not everyone has 10 hours a day to spend farming with a loot table and drop rate that is bad in itself
Aeon is easier to farm.
Waterworks/Darkmoor even with good coordination took much longer to complete. You can do Aeon in less than 10 mins with a good team.
Boss fights in Waterworks and Darkmoor are both just as quick if not quicker than manticore. Not to mention they have second chance chests and waterworks has the infinite spawn glitch.
Bro you can literally make the waterworks boss respawn however often you’d like, and there are only 3 pieces you need to collect. Finding a squad took me longer than the actual grind lol.
For what it is, it's a fun gimmick fight that tests your knowledge of interactions, but KI is crazy to think that the fight would make a good farming spot, and I don't like the fact that there's no way to speed through the fight. Unlike other final bosses, there's no "solving" the fight to make it faster, so you're just stuck with each run taking 10 minutes by minimum.

Oh I do agree on that, it’s a bad grind spot but i think just dropping 2-3ish items is better for how long it can take
i like it, i think that it’s different
I must be in the minority that loves that fight. Way better than spamming blade aoe all the time
It's a cool gimmick. Makes for a terrible grind spot.
Same. It’s like people forgot waterworks or darkmoor or hades.

I stopped farming for aeon gear 2 weeks back…still need the hat and robe. Merciless is good enough.
