This is the 2min balance changes patch where Kaling is bindable and received the hp nerf, but we have not yet gotten the 30* patch. We ran numerous times during the Night Troupe patch with the exceedingly strong event buffs, but we barely did not have enough damage (it was about a 1.5 min slower p3 entry compared to this run). Compared to other first boss clears that I’ve been a part of, I would say that only Extreme Kalos was more difficult. We did 6 runs on patch day as well as around 20 practice runs during Night Troupe. The difficulty of Kaling is primarily that the danger of sudden failure is always present, and it's very important to adjust rapidly to changes in the gauge.

The bind changes were very helpful for p1 bird and p2. We probably could have made it out of p2 a little faster, but we prioritized safety over damage. The final burst was a little nervewracking since we did not have enough damage to kill it before the test, but thankfully we survived that and finished it off!
