As the title suggests, which leg should be killed first.
As far as I can tell, there are 8 spots where you can hit the boss when he is full strength:
--XX (Top Leg) --knX XX (Middle Leg) ---dX --XX (Bottom Leg)
In the graphic above, I have used the following characters:
- represents empty spaces. k represents optimal space for Kamus n represents optimal space for Naga (Isha) d represents optional space for Demon Dog (Igor) X represents a Hex Location where you can hit the Top/Middle/Bottom Leg.
First, did I get that right?
Not shown are places where you would place your ranged damage dealers. Some people prefer to move their ranged right up behind the melee, but this question isn't really about character placement, it is about which leg to destroy first.
When all 8 spots are open, having Igor and Cyclops hit the center of Bottom or Top Leg (and splash the two neighbors) is the obvious choice. But where should the other damage be done?
Should all single attack damage be done to the center leg first, and kill that completely, leaving the bottom and top leg as key targets for igor/cyclops as long as possible?
Anyway, discuss the options...

I think this one is optimized. you can bring karmus and cyclop up to attack top tents, preferrence.

I guess my real question is how do the legs die?
I have never seen a leg die. Do they die one square at a time? Or do both blocks of the leg disappear once it has taken 2 million damage combined?
Assuming that both parts of the bottom leg fall off at the same time, You want that leg to exist as long as possible. It helps Cyclops/Elemix/Igor do maximum damage. So isn't it more beneficial to have the single target damage all attack the middle leg whenever possible?
In the setup in the video above, the benefit of having Kamus attack the bottom leg is for a counter attack. So he must attack that leg. Cyclops on rounds 3 and 4, and Pei should always attack the center leg though shouldn't they? Keep the bottom/top legs around as long as possible to maximize the multi-spot attacks from Cyclops/Elemix/Igor.
This strategy doesn't help your individual attack, but it might affect the speed at which your guild can kill the boss.
