Hey all,
Just wanted to provide some help because I see so many randoms dying at Mecharydon. When I look at current available guides and videos available, no one talks clearly about the main reason everyone keeps dying, which is completely avoidable: the pool (also called Shark Field).
(For a guide on what happens in each step of the fight, you can refer to this post from Uerazagr: https://www.spacetimestudios.com/showthread.php?597690-The-(not-so)-complete-guide-to-Mecharydon!&highlight=mecharydon)
Now on how to stop dying from the pool.
The pool is not random. Its time and location are very well defined.
Time: The first pool appears about 30 seconds into the fight. The next pools will always appear a few seconds after the previous pool disappears.
Location: The pool will always appear underneath a player.
Now what you have to do?
Be on the lookout for the first pool; then, every time the pool disappears, you keep a distance from all mobs and move to a safe location so that the pool will spawn there. I like to go to the top of the map because I can easily keep an eye on it. But you can just circle Mecharydon from a distance, which also works very well.
Here's a solo demonstration with my nab mage, and just regular ads elixir: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pb9f62rQ0w4
I always keep a distance because I can die from Mecharydon's "Thunder" (the closer you are, the stronger it hits), but to be safer you can use a "30% damage reduction elixir". Also, to control the crabs as I want, I like to go with fireball and ice.
Hope this helps!
Cheers
