First Attempt Prep
The first goal is not speed. The first goal is to survive long enough to identify mechanics, attack tells and wipe causes.
- Bring a durable build or a party member who can safely observe attacks.
- Record attack names, animation tells and whether each hit is avoidable.
- Track if Rob has phase changes, add waves, arena hazards or enrage behavior.
- Write down every drop after each kill, even if the drop seems common.
