    When the scorps use TP moves they say "The scorpion's legs are stuck in the ground" or "The scorpion lacks the energy to attack" or something to that effect. They either get bound or don't attack for a few rounds if I remember correctly

    Re: PLD/RDM solo Operation Desert Swarm

    how come there are moments when nothing is going on? or is it just lag of some sort? i haven't played for a while so i'm not sure what's giving her constant ice spikes.. the body piece?
    Also, the scenes where the scorpions seem to be doing nothing is when she gear swapped after the scorpions used their TP attacks.

    If you go try and swap gear, for example, just before a Goblin does a Bomb Toss, you won't see the bomb toss go off (but it will still hit you) and they will be stuck on the "charging" animation for a bit (but still swinging).

    I don't think you'll be able to keep up without excal. The additional effect kicked in a lot, and averages 300. Vorpal blade will be fine, but I don't see joyeuse providing the DoT required to keep up with Excal added effect :3

    Edit: Rewatched it. Saw 11 procs. It seemed a lot more the first time, lol. Maybe it is doable afterall.

    GL in your attempts.

    I remember watching some PLD use an enchantment with Ice Spikes. What is enhancing magic cap with PLD?

    With some enhancing magic+ skill, you could get a decent enspell.. Maybe 12 or 14.

    Re: PLD/RDM solo Operation Desert Swarm

    Wouldn't an active en-spell remove the possibility for Excalibur's damage proportional to current HP effect to process though? I'm not entirely sure of the priority here, but I recall that the stun effect grip overwrites some Dragoon polearm's evasion down effect. Of course, if you're talking about a non-Excalibur paladin soloing the fight, this becomes a moot point.

    enspell's overwrite weapon additional effects, yeah

    Very nicely done. Aegis Pld is so broken.

    edited for accuracy

    Re: PLD/RDM solo Operation Desert Swarm

    Adding up the damage and everything else. You dont NEED Excal, as it doesnt exactly blow away joytoy with enspells damage wise. The reason why excal really makes this ALOT easier is the 20 hp regen. The scorps were hitting her for about 40 hp per non blocked attack, that can add up fast if unlucky with blocks and you need a way to recover that HP aside for spam cures and just regen drinks. Over the 12 min fight, excal regen gave her a total of 4800 hp. So bring an excal, or several Pots..

    As for the rest, im not sure if those pants were the best option, as I didnt add up how much the para kicked in or how much DoT the spikes did, but idk. W/O Dring all shield blocks may not be quit 0.. but that may actually help you because then you would get TP bonus from Shield Mastery.

    Very interesting, gonna try this when I finish Aegis... (hopefully soon).

    Re: PLD/RDM solo Operation Desert Swarm

    She could of done some things to make the run a little smoother I think, have a macro for casting spells to include your Phalanx/Cure/Stoneskin for Homam Legs and Loq Earring for a quicker cast and possibly the +8% Interruption down Earring for those as well. But impressive non the less, I am wondering how Hauteclaire would do with this but I think you would rather equip Joy for the better DPS. When I get Aegis I will also try this, fuckin M Pieces being last stage -_-;
