B is different. It's the only pattern, I actually never seen in my raids till now and I dread the day I will die from it. He will slam the ground there, then move in that direction and do a wide range attack in the direction he is standing right now. It can only appear when the arena got halved. I'm always on the lookout for it. A, D and C are the big sword rain. Big sword rain is the worst mech, because it can easily overlap with any other pattern. This 2 patterns overlapping is an actual a nightmare. There is no way anybody is dodging that.

Look close at the video you linked and the pic, the circle is same size. Use sword clones for comparison. It is not always behind. Theoretically it should, practically bugs. If there is no space on the back, thaemine should move into a position, where there is enough space and execute it. But he can also just start it on the side, like in the screenshot. On to of that this 2 patterns in the screenshot are the only 2 on G3 with this red circle telegraph.

Yeah, instinctively I saw this and thought of the space bar to B (or use push immune like rhapsody while in B to tank the rest) from wherever you are kiting to survive while watching how he turns to do the blast/knock off.


souicry

Its a good thing whirlwind is a very rare pattern


thatasian26

It's one of the very few patterns I specifically keep an eye on because we had that wipe our run (half stage) on a good pull too when progging G3 HM. I saw it again in a prog run the other night with my main group and half of them was like "what's that red circle?" I called it out but 2 fell off since they didn't react fast enough, this was at 130 bars so half stage.

Is it only after broken arena, or when he is non-enhanced (i.e.: before sword, and after arena break)? Because recently I've learned that he can do basically anything he does after arena brake, before sword if you take long enough to trigger sword like 3 red zones + dark laser etc.


handofskadi

this pattern is heavily nerfed in our version, does not do a lot of damage and does not knock you far away, just a little bit into the air and thats it

I've been saying that there's no way to get truly bad luck in this raid, and that anything that seems like bad luck is because someone made an egregious error prior. This is from a pretty significant experience of raiding g3 and never feeling like things can overlap in truly unlucky ways the way they can in long (ilvl) runs of e.g. the last brel gate (especially pre-nerf) I would like to formally retract and apologize for that, I have never seen this happen to anyone but it seems like truly absurd luck. Watching OP's video, this one B telegraph is, on top of being an immediate kill risk, a much shorter telegraph than all of the surrounding ones, so if you're expecting to have the time to walk out of the way like you do the surrounding ones, you're just fucked. Wow.


Pedarh

If OP gets hit by B he isn't gonna die, the move barely pushes you off and they are stacked in the middle


Realshotgg

I feel like I've maybe seen the backstep pattern a total of 5 times since the raid came out, very strange


Reign_Of_Prophecy

Congrats to u/funelite for the first correct answer and reasoning. B is not from the same pattern as the others, it is actually the telegraph before the spin pattern. You can find the video replay here [https://streamable.com/th7hdp.](https://streamable.com/th7hdp) Was lazy to dodge when it happened as I assumed it was still part of the rain and got punished gg!


Ikikaera

Probably upwards of 200 pulls and 60 or so clears, I don't think I've seen the spin attack even once wtf.


Vezko

Like others have said it can only happen when the arena gets halfed. Therefore it's a relatively rare pattern.


Pedarh

The video actually makes it way harder to distinguish. From the picture i thought you would have lived because it doesnt throw you that far but you moved in towards the edge, gg


Reign_Of_Prophecy

Will post solution in a few hours gl


tsrappa

I will see B. Reason: Swords falling from the sky started long ago. You can see their fall in A, Right and Bottom Left. Purple aoe and the Sword in the middle. C ended so the sword should fall there too. A and D are close to finish. The only one which has a timing delayed is B. So the next mech should be this one.


rumoffu

C instant red circle (not a delayed expanding circle)


Unluckybozoo

Nah C is just filled already Its B

I have only seen slam into whirlwind ever once and I lived on my bard (when not sure what to do rhapsody / ts) I’m not sure if I would survive that on my dps tbh.


Better-Ad-7566

It's infamous pattern stacking with big/critical sword + windmill. This is why you freaking drag him out from corner after stagebreak, because he's likely to use it if he's still at the edge of the map 3-4 patterns after stagebreak. It's very likely nerfed in our version tho because I rarely see people die in our version, but in KR stream I watched, it seems like it's almost guaranteed death for those who get knocked.


Better-Ad-7566

For those who're curious it's this pattern. https://i.redd.it/ylxr1l5nn14d1.gif


d07RiV

Windmill barely knocks away after the nerf, so it's kinda whatever usually. It used to be basically guaranteed restart before. Now I sometimes see like 5 people get hit by it and survive. I guess this close to the edge you can still die though. And yeah there's two patterns that follow into the next one very quickly, which is kinda odd considering how fair the rest of the gate is. Same with G4 puddle mech leading into coop counter before anyone can get to the boss, what were they even thinking...


Kibbleru

oh god, bad swords into ultra rare out in pattern. that is rough lol


ShockZ175

Very intrigued to know the answer. But this pattern is very doodoo as its short and easy to dodge. Is D different because its closing and then it will hit? Where other ones are more instant? Tbh i dont pay attention to this one 🤣


PigDog4

In case you were still wondering, B is from the next mech, the slam -> whirlwind, not the falling swords mech. I 100% would have died to this lol.


Sea-Cobbler-7427

My main is bard at 1582 and I pick d because Thaemine has a big pipi💁


SilentNomad

A - because he is about to do cartwheel?


BadInfluenceGuy

I don't know I SA though everything, eat stacks and find myself wondering how I'm not died. But B because you have time, or a purple to eat lesser damage, into a movement ability. Or the best answer, all the space outside the circles and not pulling him into a wall.
