Final battle bug *Spoilers*

[Mina]

In the final battle vs the Netherbrain, I've been having a bug where my characters turns all get skipped for some reason. I even double checked to make sure there wasn't a debuff causing it but there wasn't. When the Orb of Negation is cast, it then skips my characters' turns and unless I have them spread out far enough ill just instantly lose. Basically, Orb goes out, it skips my characters and does everything else, the summoned allies, the enemies, then the orb pops. So between orb coming out and popping I don't get a chance to move my characters =(

I think you're just not paying attention?

First turn the brain casts Orb of Negation, some floor tiles begin to glow, indicating they're about to be negated next turn.

Then next turn the brain casts it again on different tiles AND the previously marked ones go bye bye.

So just pay attention to the floor tiles, move away from ones about to be negated, and blast that brain down.

Is it normal for the brain to blast all the panels down in 2 turns? There's that countdown that says '5 turns until' and then all the platforms are just gone in 2

What difficulty is this supposedly happening on, because I've not seen this?

Keep your party spread out. Pay attention when it say 'marked for deletion.' Those tiles go bye bye, along with anything standing on it.

No need to keep party spread.

You can actually control which area gets marked for deletion if you just group somewhere, and then move out once it gets marked for deletion.

I usually just jump to the next tier down and to the side, and I've yet had the brain survive long enough for anyone other than Orpheus to reach melee range.

It happened 3 separate times, i watched it skip over my characters turns, looked for a debuff causing it and nothing =p I think it has something to do with the whole "Cutting to a different area" thing.

If you're playing on tactician, this is very possible, since it summons two orbs of negation rather than one

This can't happen on tactician either, done this fight 3 times never seen this happen. Grouped, spread out doesn't matter, just impossible based on the number of orbs that appear and the area they cover.

Never encountered what OP is describing either.

It's possible these are both known bugs or introduced by Patch 3.

For me it just literally skipped over my characters' turns. Orb of negation came out then it was supposed to be my main character but it skipped EVERY ONE of my characters. It did all the summoned friends and then orb pops and i die. I did manage to finally beat it by keeping a character outside waiting for that BS to happen.
