Escha - Ru'Aun thread

While we were doing some Vagary runs I suddenly got an urge to try a 7 man Kirin (PLD WHM COR SMN SCH GEO and THF).
We went rather unprepared, my only goal was to gauge Kirin's HP actually.

Random notes :
- Each MB Wind Blade was removing 8~12% to Kirin (Vs 4% with 17~), I did 7 BPs in total (6 MBs, 1 non-MB which still did 36k).
- I forgot to tell our COR that Wild Card must hit both the RUN and me thus I panicked a bit and used Astral Conduit directly... Initial plan was to Apogee > Wind Blade > Wind Blade > Random Deal > Apogee (if reset) > Wind Blade > Wind Blade > Wild Card > Apogee > Wind Blade > Wind Blade > Random Deal > Apogee (if reset) > Wind Blade > Wind Blade > Astral Conduit > Wind Blade x14
- I forgot that Kouryu will move toward the popper (who was down the stairs) then it double Breath'd us.
- I'm very positive we can kill it with this setup, idealy with a PLD as popper instead of THF and maybe another WHM healing him.
- I really love RUN and especially Rayke (btw, Futhark Boots enhances Rayke duration by 1 sec per merit lvl for 47 seconds total with 5/5 merits)

So the blood moons aligned with Jupiter and we finally had everyone on to try BLM zerg again:

http://cdn.guildwork.net/albums/imag...61d1aa209b.jpg

Party1: RUN, RUN, COR, WHM, GEO, PLD

•Obviously RUNx2 is for Gambit/Rayke pairing(1 RUN was a total leech(me) and /thf).

•COR is there to reset RUN if needed on phase2(wasn't, since COR died, oops).

•GEO does Bolster Vex/Attunement for phase2.

•PLD pops and runs down stairs for phase2.

Party2: BLM, BLM, BLM, SCH, GEO, GEO

•BLM for pure damage. SP1 and 2 for phase2.

•Only 1 Idris GEO used, believe it or not. The Idris did Bolster Malaise/Focus at the very start of phase1. GEO2 did Bolster Attunement and Languor at start of phase2.

•SCH there for SC and did Embrava/Regen5 at start of phase2.

•BRD did songs before we popped and dropped.

We killed 0 summons and, as you can see, this was a very sloppy fight on our part. major SC issues and COR died before they could reset rayke/gambit, so the last 20% was just free nuking for the most part. Eliminate our simple errors and this is easily a 3 minute fight.

[Ramzii]

Grats on the win! Is there any reason why you couldn't bolster the malaise/languor near the start of phase 2? Or does it die quick enough that it'll last the entire fight?

[EjinCaitsith]

Theoretically, it should last the entire fight. Phase1 should last no more than 45seconds once the first SC starts. Once you start damage on phase2, you have 1 minute to kill it before you run the deadly risk of everyone getting terrored, which will most likely end the run.

Damage is certainly not the issue, though. It was melting like butter when we actually managed to SC/MB, but there were some really weird lag things going on for multiple mages. I personally couldn't see my BLM casting at all for the end of phase2. The spell damage would eventually show in log, but I'd get no casting animation and timers would show spells being ready that weren't.

That's cause they updated the hook, I think you need to do a full restart but I'm not sure if that'll fix it. Definitely fucked with me really badly today though.

So.... ZNM T1 pops are in the next login........ there's 4 tiers+PW for pop items... It makes no sense, but I think we've exhausted the AA pop items that make sense a long while ago.
And it's kinda weird for them to be in the login campaign in the first place. AND last time SKY god pops were there....... I dunno. Grasping at nothing.

[Lyramion]

I dunno. Grasping at nothing.

Something might be brewing again or just another photoshop troll going on. So don't get your hopes up.

- Poster #101 shows photo of AA EV Sash KI.
- Has more photos in another post with his screen shown ( http://minus-k.com/nejitsu/loader/up34522.jpg )
- Rumors going around on that AA is being fought and shouted for on Siren
- One guy said to have bought AABC crafting mats on FFXIAH. People speculating a combo of those and possibly divine sap.

It's all pretty wild for now and till something more useful comes up I don't feel like watching it too closely.

It's not ZNM pops, it's the trophy item. But I'm just nitpicking.

Still warning of troll but more stuff being posted:

トリガ試行錯誤するのに１０００万以上つかってるからもうちょっとナイショ、ごめんね＞＜ 
でもヒントだけなら。。 


5パターンはすべて判明 

ヒント１ 
トリガはＡ＋Ｂ＋Ｃ＋Ｄになってて　全て１個づつ使う 

ヒント２ 
トリガのうち３つは競売取引可、残りの１つは競売取引不可バザー可 

ヒント３ 
トリガはＡ＋Ｂと、Ｃ＋Ｄがセットになってる 
片方分かればもう片方もスグわかるはず… 

明日６時おきなのでもう寝ます>

Not telling us items yet if it's true but of course dropping mysterious hints:

Hint 1: 4 different items, all in numbers of 1 (A+B+C+D)
Hint 2: 3 Items can be bought by AH, 1 Item is Bazzar only
Hint 3: Saying 2 each of these items have a common theme and if you know one, you might quickly guess the other (A&B C&D)


So someone is putting a lot of effort into another troll or we are getting there....


EDIT: Someone "leaking" Sif Lock + Sif macrame being one set for AAGK. Truth? Who knows !

EDIT2: Lots of talk about Illumi Ink + Crayfish + AAmaterial + AAmaterialcraft... which most likely isnt it

Works and confirmed by LS mate ! Happy hunting !

[Fwahm]

Watched a JP group do AAHM. From what I could glean:

Uses Hojo: Ni, Kurayami: San, and Dokumori: Ni, but doesn't have Utsusemi
Uses Circle Blade, Swift Blade, and Chant du Cygne; will self SC CdC > Cdc = Light at low hp
Has about 500,000 hp with 6 (26k MB did 5%).
I forgot to turn all my relevant filters off, so not sure if he uses Mighty Strikes or Brazen Rush, but he definitely does not use Mijin Gakure.

No idea about magic evasion, of course, but his offense wasn't much of a threat to a Paladin, barring one time he did 1300 CdC > 1300 CdC > 100 Light. There was enough time between for an attentive healer to cure him, though. Not sure if spike in CdC damage was due to SPs or just random DAs + crits (earlier CdCs doing about 500).

Really? Now I feel stupid for not combining the parchment and ink with the mats.

Pretty much anyones reaction that tested out stuff.

[dasva]

haha so that's what they meant by 4 types... each one needs 4 different items to pop

CL140, Vanquisher of Cowardice

http://cdn.guildwork.net/albums/imag...61d1aa8b9a.jpg

Our initial plan was to use the height difference to avoid meteor hitting mages, but it ports around like crazy, so ended up having everyone stand close and use vex/attunement.

Was hitting 60K MBs on BLM, which was taking well over 20% HP per nuke with 6. Ended up being extremely easy compared to the other 140s, but I guess that's why gear isn't 100% off these.

Unlocked STR/VIT vorseal.

[Lyramion]

DEX+AGI Vorseal from HM

[Lolwutt]

pretty trivial, kept aegis on for random mijins but nothing really came close to hurting my pld

used rng setup, 1470~ acc with bolstered idris torpor capped and it went down extremely fast, last 5% dragged on after bolster wore

dex/agi vorseal

[EjinCaitsith]

Vanquisher of Rage

http://cdn.guildwork.net/albums/imag...61d1aa9205.jpg

Lots more HP, but didn't use any SPs this time besides SCH's. Aegis PLD was never in danger of dying at any point during the fight.

Unlocked luck vorseal.

Edit: It has avoidance down aura.

And scythe drop from TT. Looks like weapons aren't extremely rare. We're 2 for 5 with TH3.

INT Vorseal from MR. It took a ton of Magic damage, summoned a sheep and for us just melted without charm used or anything special.

HM seems to take magic well, too.

GK has so far been the most resistant to magic.


Setup used: PLD RUN 2x SCH 2x GEO(1x Idris) WHM


> 2nd LUCK vorseal from EV. Arrogance spread between 2 tanks and 2 luopan did barely anything. Also went very unspectacular for us.

>> Also downed TT. The tip of hugging it with VEX was golden. It did spam Sleepga but generally just melted.

Modus Veritas usually lands once or even twice on these NM with 2x SCH leading to 50 000 helix ticks.



These NM seem very weak compared to other 140 as others have said. I wish I could give fun details of the fights but it really just felt like AAs on VD minus their ridiculus MDT, thus making them easier.





Compiled Vorseal List:


TT: STR/VIT
HM: DEX/AGI
MR: INT/MND/CHR
GK: Luck
EV: Luck

[FaeQueenCory]

For shame!
I was hoping for a third set of DT/Killer/Occ0Dmg...
Poo.
But at least the "8th" stats come from them.

Makes me think that Reisen Island Island is gonna be like the Empyreal Paradox... Just a battlefield area.
Or at least no Geas Fete in that area. (Then again vorseals could go up to 11... Cause... Japan. But... Seems unlikely.)
