Salvage Stat Cells

[Evinscar]

Are getting the stat cells for tanks/blms vital for boss kills? Or do they not make much of a difference either way?

[Hapernack]

Not a huge diff but they definately help out... if you can get them you should at least try.

[Zilong]

I'd say if you plan on straight tanking boss with MNK or NIN, Pannus is vital

The rest are nice to have, but you should really focus on getting pannus and velum for all your tank/nuker, 30 STR and INT really makes a difference in the overall damage.

Thanks for the replies, my shell just attempted our first boss run. We decided to start on the toughest and hit up LBC. Didn't go too well but I also misunderstood a few things about the fight. Figure our next run will go much smoother.

[Sci]

I wouldn't say LBC is the toughest to kill. Zhayolm and Silver Seas are probably harder. I'm factoring in the whole getting to the boss and the time limit too though.

If you want an easy boss, stick with LBC or go for Arrapago.

Bhaflau is definitely the toughest boss to fight, but getting there with the most cells is easiest. I think altogether the easiest zone+boss is Zhayolm.

Zhayolm is even easier to get to with sufficient cells if you're not running against the clock for phantom 35s NM pop conditions...though the zone pretty much exist only for Battleclad as it stands now.

An unweakened LBC is the only thing in salvage I have a phobia of nowadays really (and deviate bhoot with shitty stunners/cell jewing ala arra...i guess)...don't know how you guys can say that Battleclad or LAC is easier, seeing how battleclad eat stun easily, and LAC is just like 3 session of happy fun time kiting hours.

[Alcarin]

LAC is hard for me, we still have problems, our best shoot is 8% left. but all mages ran out of mp, ppl weakned etc etc. and time ran out

No offense, but this type of attitude is part of the reason shit hasn't been found yet. It's very easy to kill NMs on the way to the boss and still have plenty of time for boss, including both the 4th floor Madame AND the 5th floor Chariot. 5th floor Madame is even easier (if it's up). You can have one person train shit all the way to the porter, die, reraise, and warp the second 5F Madame dies.

If everyone who was killing Zhayolm boss was killing NMs on the way up, we probably wouldn't be where we are today. If you aren't part of the solution you're part of the problem.

Zhayolm's boss is a joke, the only thing that makes it even remotely challenging is the time sink that is floor 6. If mages know when to cast Stoneskin and where to stand, you can't possibly lose.

Getting to the SSR boss is extremely fast and easy if you take that quick path and skip NMs. The boss itself isn't horribly difficult, but it can take a very long time if it gets anal with Brainjack spam.

Getting to the Bhaflau boss is also very easy... I've never fought it nerfed, so I can't comment on that. Un-nerfed, it's dangerous, but pretty simple if your mages are quick to Erase Bind and tanks are quick on their feet.

I've never bothered with the Arrapago boss, but I kind of assume that it's just like Zhayolm... a cake walk, with an annoying time sink on Floor 6.

Thanks for assuming asshole, but with an obsessed cat 14/15 off usukane, we fucking test your bullshit theory on every zhayolm run we do.

[Arthars]

drops is luck, doesnt mean A get more drops means his/her runs are better and more successful that yours

"some cat" you mention is 14/15 because all those armor are revealed and it just takes luck to get as nothing in salvage is hard for now

i am sure alot more people here put in more efforts and just dont have the luck on drops

and alot of us here are testing theories than doing actual farming

i would call the first person to reveal madame pop condition a genious than someone who get a full set

and yep, those few extra stats cells can kill everything faster ^^

[Crosis]

I also think LBC is the hardest, too often my group has wiped at 5% or less because of unlucky constant missle spam. Don't always have time to farm ramparts and kill gears to weaken it so have to skip them.

LAC is incredibly easy, melee just switch to some gimp weapon before brainjack and are harmless. Meanwhile you can just kite LAC or even shadowbind it.

As for the topic INT/STR/VIT cells are pretty nice to have.

You necro'd a thread just to pick a fight with me?

Do you honestly think that we don't test theories on Zhayolm run?

Newsflash jackass, from farming > boss, it takes approximately 40-50 minutes to complete a BC run, that leaves a lot of time for fucking around with Zhayolm, and that's what we do.

I mentioned because 14/15 means he's missing the one piece from Zhayolm, and is obsessed enought to be willing to test any and all of your bullshit theory in order to get the pop condition, not to say he's better than you.

Seriously, did it take you 2 fucking week to declare something everyone already fucking know?

Thanks captain obvious.

i think your being too sensitive. No one says your not trying anything. The above quote did not even say anything about "hey mr Zilong, you are not trying"

However you kept saying our theory are bullshit. Do ypu even have something to share or you are telling me things you do in your run are the 100% pop condition and arent bullshit?

80% of your posts seems angry with somebody. you use the F word too much. If you still have problem, please PM me as i do not want to make the mod delete our posts.

take it easy angry kid

its a game

and not to derail, stats cell does help ^^
