Flower strategy was brought to life to allow a more melee friendly and non-Virtuoso dependant way to play ToF CM (and LCM if you have enough dps). This is an improved version from REMagic and WildNeo to make some of the Portals more similar to the commonly play UNIT strat (stacking Condi Virts). Furthermore, the comp switched away from double Heal Chrono to 1x Heal Chrono and 1x Heal Scourge (same as UNIT strat).
In terms of the Catalyst gameplay, as usual for a first kill, there are many improvements and optimisations to be made. I also tried to play fairly safe and focused on the mechanics first during crucial mechanics in order to not mess up and potentially wipe the squad. Spear Cata is fun to play here, since even for those moments when out of melee range, you can still attack the boss for the most part, which feels nice with 1200 range.
To reduce visual clutter, especially from Elementalist Spear skills, check out this arc extension from HasKha: github.com/HasKha/VfxDenoiserReleases

A different look at Ura compared to usual pug runs: CCing as much as possible for Exposed uptime and bringing out mechanics. Turns out, Condi Mech is pretty good for this, because it has so much built-in CC and a free blink. Exposed also makes Condition DPS pretty good for the fight, because the %-dmg increase is higher than Power (20% vs 10% [and Impact sigil]) and you always have your condis already applied and immediately profit off of exposed, which makes getting the benefit from it passive and hence easy to play.
The run itself wasnt particularly grinded, we got together for 2 sessions and this was our best kill. So with some more optimisations this can easily be beaten.
Many thanks to Bear, Florian, Seekin and Stef for participating earlier.
