  What about the Attracting Soul's accuracy, standby time and Girgashiy clone or whatever?

  I made a few changes.
  
  1. Gargash loads the skill, which takes two seconds.
  2. Players are cloned; clones run towards Gargash. Gargash does not move during the attack.
  3. If a player's clone gets within 100cm of Gargash, the player dies and Gargash is healed by 2% health.
  4. Players can stop clones by attacking them. This stuns the clone for 3~4 seconds.
  5. To end the attack players must deal a certain amount of damage to Gargash, based on the difficulty and number of players.

  If a player is grabbed by Fanaticism and not promptly freed, they'll take massive damage and be thrown a huge distance. Additionally, Gargash will receive a strength/speed bonus...which is a very bad thing. Future uses of Fanaticism and Staff Bash will deal much more damage and Judgement Blade will be harder to land.

  Gargash's first stun(After blocking with SoT) lasts exactly 10 seconds.
  
  
  Found this out after doing a solo raid, I was able to cast a raincloud(Which takes 8 seconds to setup)

  I'm guessing you can't kill the clones, and you don't know how long Fanaticism buff lasts?

  You can't kill the clones. You can only prevent them from reaching Gargashiy while dropping his purple health bar.
  
  I'm honestly not sure how long the Fanaticism buff lasts but it's seriously pretty dangerous. He tends to spam his newly unlocked skills. I've had him walk up to me, grab me, fling me, and near-instantly grab me again. If your party doesn't break people out of his grasp, he'll probably start OHKOing people all over the place.

  I noticed Girgashiy getting a debuff from an interrupted Fanaticism? Any idea what it is?

  I noticed that as well. I'm guessing it's the inverse of his buff.
  
  I can't tell if his buff stacks because most of my later parties keep him from tossing people.
  
  Anyway, I've only run Easy but here are my observations thus far:
  
  - Meteor Shower seems to have a 40 second cooldown on easy.
  
  100% HP
  Staff Bash/Mineral Hail
  
  80%
  Contagion/Staff Bash/Mineral Hail
  
  60% HP
  Imprison/Staff Bash/Mineral Hail
  
  40% HP
  Fanaticism/Staff Bash/Mineral Hail
  
  25% HP
  Contagion/Imprison/Fanaticism/Staff Bash/Mineral Hail
  
  - Starting on Normal he can use Soul Attraction at 25% HP.

  I've also seen Fanaticism hit requirement release as three in G19, but it's like 30~50 in Easy? I think it might also be based on the # of people?

  It's based around the number of people. I can confirm that one.
  
  

  Numbers of attacks required to release the grabbed Player:
  Easy: 3
  Medium: 4
  Hard: 5

  
  
  That's per player.
  
  I entered Medium with 15 people and it took 60 hits to release the grabbed player. We started to lose and people left. That number dropped to 16 when only four people were remaining.
  
  Also, it seems like the buff stacks with itself but the duration limits it to stacking only once, so he'll be dealing 96% more damage with Fanaticism and Staff Bash if he lands it twice in a row.

  It seems one player can knock Gargash (easy) to his knees starting at Rank A.

  What about the HP threshold and damage for Solo? I think I took a mineral hail for 50%?

  Well, for the most part you don't even need divine skills to clear hard. My party ran this last night once with just WM/Smash spamming to lock the AI down.
  
  This method turned out to be greatly effective as we could just let our highest reforged smash players smash away without any worry of attacks. While the first 4 minutes were real rocky setting up the fight it went very smoothly until 25% when he started summoning clones. Tonight we plan to lock the clones down in WM and let gunners/smashers DPS his shield. I'll mention how that goes later. Anyway, here the last half of our hard mode run to see how we did this pretty much divine-less.

  Sorry for the video recording errors I done messed up. While recording in full screen I clicked a skype message and broke the sound. Stupid me.
  
  If someone wants to analyze the HP thresholds for normal I have a normal run from start to finish up as well.

  It really feels like these Crusader skills don't work like they should.
  
  Like, it really seems like Shield of Trust's aura should protect everyone inside it from Meteor Hail... but it doesn't.
  
  And it really seems like Celestial Spike's "Divine damage" shouldn't be affected by Girgashiy's defensive stats... but it is.
  
  And it really seems like Judgement Blade should decrease Girgashiy's damage reduction... but it doesn't.
  
  
  And just seeing that raid video Joey posted, where Crusader skills are mostly ignored in favor of traditional whooping, just really makes me think that Girgashiy is just difficult right now because the skills don't work as well as they seem like they should.
  
  Er, anyways, I personally think the Crusader skills should be buffed, at the very least against Apostles. This raid would be more worth the effort if skills actually weakened Apostles when used in their obvious pattern. (e.g. shield -> spike -> blade, against the Girgashiy)

  Shield of Trust is obviously very useful against Girashiy.
  
  Celestial Spikes honestly doesn't seem like a very good skill in raids or out. The damage is extremely lackluster and the speed reduction lasts only a brief amount of time. I mean, it's heavily outclassed by Devil's Cry. The only thing it has over that skill is AOE damage and speed reduction but both are incredibly pathetic (20% speed reduction, wtf).
  
  Judgement Blade, on the other hand, seems like it has good potential. The skill won't deal much damage at Rank 1 but it should hypothetically cleave his defense with maxed out Breaking Lies and stun him for an extra 7.5 seconds. In other words, he's going to use Mineral Shower every 40 seconds. When he's not using or recovering from Meteor Shower (which effectively deals no damage) he'll be using his other, scarier attacks.
  
  Shield of Trust stuns him for 7~5 seconds, depending on difficulty. Celestial Spikes extends this by 7~5 seconds, depending on difficulty. Judgment Blade can additionally stun him for up to 1.5 seconds per player (capped at 5). He has a load time of 5~3 seconds.
  
  With maxed out Binding Needles, you should leave him 18.5~24.5 seconds to attack the party per 45 second period. With nothing more than shield usage on hard, he'll have 37 seconds to pound your team (effectively 50% more time).

  This leads me to question, however, why they haven't removed the Windmill AI reset thing.

  Speaking of Breaking Lies, what good is that?
  It says 3% Defense Reduction at level 15...
  But... is that Defense defense, or the Girgashiy's Damage Reduction.
  Either way fat chance of many people getting that, since it requires getting all the other types of subskills... dang age 10 weekly order and 3x crafting one...
