Too Fast to Die and Battlefield Awareness (witness staff attack)

Okay, I feel like I've noticed something about these orders.

Multiple times I've done the Solo raid and I think I've found something out about these two orders. I've completed the Solo order, getting hit many times by the staff swing, and still gotten Too Fast to Die.

And other times, I've gotten hit multiple times and not had it count for "Battlefield Awareness: Witness the Girgashiy's staff attack."

I've found that it doesn't count as "witnessing" if the staff swing deals 1 damage.

Two days ago I'd gotten Too Fast to Die, and fought the girgashiy and got smacked by his staff multiple times, all for 1 damage since my defense was bolstered by heavy armor/buffs and the girgashiy was debuffed with sorrow sonata from fantastic chorus. Once I'd beaten him, I got credit for Too Fast to Die.

I tested this theory of 1dmg not counting for witnessing the staff attack again, earlier today, since I'd gotten the BA: Staff order. I didn't fulfill the order when his staff swing did 1 damage to me. (wearing armor/red fantastic chorus lowering his strength) And this was with multiple staff swings.

Finally, I used Berserk to lower my defenses to 0 and when he struck me with his staff swing, it did its normal damage and counted for the daily order.

If someone wouldn't mind verifying this themselves, just to make sure it's not just me, then I feel like this detail should be noted. It may make Too Fast to Die a lot less annoying for some people, if they know they can just boost their def/nerf girg's stength to fulfill the daily instead of wrangling with that staff swing's hitbox.

Hm, you also said Heal Your Wounds only applies to while in a Squad. Were you in a squad during your tests?

That's right, I did the same trick you can use to get Guarded Footsteps from Solo raid.

Make a squad and take any difficulty of raid. You can't manually cancel the mission so you have to enter the raid and leave to get rid of it. This will let you be in a Squad with no active mission, allowing you to enter Solo in a squad.

Anyways, using that trick to be in a squad in Solo, I was able to use First Aid on myself in solo to have it count for the Heal Your Wounds order. If you bandage yourself in Solo without being in a squad, it won't fulfill the Order, so this must mean it has two requirements for bandaging yourself to count towards the daily, those being:

A) You're fighting the Apostle in the mission, and

B) You're in a squad

Actually, you don't need to be in a squad. I've gotten it as a daily 5 times, and all 5 times I've done it without creating a squad. I either waited until I was wounded or until after gir was dead though, but either way, no squad.

Oh that's interesting.

Now I'm wondering what exactly it looks for, seeing how I got the daily done before being injured.

When I said either used while wounded or at the end, I mean that I'd use it once I was wounded, or at the very end (whether or not I had wounds)

I think you misunderstood. I meant if being in a squad had anything to do with To Fast To Die/Battlefield Awareness, as you said with Heal Your Wounds.

Oh, not sure if being in a squad affects it.

I did all my testing for those two orders in the Solo Raid, but not while in a squad. I wouldn't think it'd affect it, though.

First run: I got hit twice by the staff under Berserk, it didn't count. :/

Second run: I got hit again while armored, taking 1s, 5s, and 7s, again it didn't count.

Third run: ... Not sure if I want to keep risking my gear. I got hit by the staff thrice for 1 damage each, no counts for daily. However there were a lot of lag spikes so I may have gotten staffed during those times.
