I don't know about the second bit because I barely play with a party.
For the first bit though, you have a room before the boss where you can fully prepare and buff before going in, making the first hit reach unnecessary. It works in FFXIV because you are placed in the boss room from whenever you were before and without any preparation room beforehand.

Not only that...but it can only be done once a day per character (even though they are untradable)...so that gives you 6 tries to get 3 totems for you class out of the 16 different totems.
That's normal, it's never been multiple times per character. Also you get ten per completion, so 60 tries instead of your claim of 6.

I cannot hear the xylophone sounds. Can you add literally anything to help me? Colors, shaking movements, small flowers?
