Some Like It Excruciatingly Hot is a stage in The Masked Carnivale for Blue Mage, introduced in patch 4.5 with Stormblood.

Act 1

Enemies

Arena Gas Bomb

  • Endurance: Average
  • Strengths: Fire Fire
  • Weaknesses: Wind Wind
  • Vulnerabilities: --

Strategy

Once aggroed, the bombs will cast Fulmination which can be interrupted by any attack, but bombs will also be strongly knocked back by any attack. Attack one of the bombs from the side to push towards the other, then defeat both together without worry of separation.

Alternatively, spam Hydro Pull.png  Hydro Pull, as the pull-in effect takes priority over knocking the bombs away.

Act 2

Enemies

Arena Gas Bomb

  • Endurance: Average
  • Strengths: Fire Fire
  • Weaknesses: Wind Wind
  • Vulnerabilities: --

Strategy

Same bombs as Act 1. Use Hydro Pull.png  Hydro Pull or Sticky Tongue.png  Sticky Tongue from the center and quickly bring all 4 bombs to you, then use AoEs to push all at once to the wall (or just spam Hydro Pull).

Phantom Flurry.png  Phantom Flurry can also be used to deal damage while the bombs are bunched up, without knocking them away.
