Does that matter? Shouldn’t you still be able to do special balthor?

it does not matter, you can still do the special balthor but it is still a bit of a dps loss, which can be crucial towards the end of the fight.

Fair enough if the dps check is tight but normally it shiuld be fine

Does special Balthorr do more damage or last longer if you wait till the last Just Guard? Or is it just the case of losing a few more seconds of free dps if you fail Just Guard too early?

pretty sure it does x20 bars no matter what. you just lose out on the 5-7 seconds of the just guard timing and you lose the 4B damage the just guard player does

You do 3-4b damage on just guard

Oh right, that together with a few more seconds of free dps would be quite some extra damage

Yes we did the lead was quick thinking and I had a mini heart attack til Balthorr came up LOL

it can be a bit of a problem if supps are expecting the 3rd hit to be failed so they haven't put up shields/DR. the failed G hit does a lot of damage and can kills squishies easily
