    Count Raum and Marquis Sabnak

    This is my first post on BG so first of all hello to everyone. o/

    I wanted to try to go in Dynamis-Xarcabard at some time when it's empty to solo or duo Count Raum. I would go with BioIII -> die -> RR repeat strat. Problem is I don't know if the pld nm Marquis Sabnak that is standing on the same platform would cure him when his HP go low which would make this strat usueles. I tried to do my research but i couldn't find any info about it.
    Has anyone ever witness this to happen?
    I'm pretty sure it happened at least once for an ls or a low man group to wipe on the thf nm so they could say me if his HP went up after with DoT on.

    Thanks for any useful infos.

    Yep. Raum gets cured by Sabnak.

    The reason the BLM tower is soloable is because there's no mage on that tower with cure spells, at best he'll drain. The only towers you can dot to death : BLM NIN DRK / RNG SAM DRG (vomit tower) I've never seen Dyna wyverns use healing breath so I don't think they can heal the master.

    Do they have party link (the demons)? If not, you could get someone to just kite the pld nm away and use this strat for the THF. I've never wiped to demon towers so don't know if it's possible to hold one away, though.

    You can duo it easily using many different strategies, problem is that you need a 2nd person willing to waste their lockout timers on it or a mule with xarcabard access :/ A good duo strat for RDM + THF(I'm assuming you're RDM since you said bio 3) is to have the THF ranged pull the eye that pops raum out of party, flee, and run way off west with RR on. As soon as all 3 demons have popped(DO NOT PULL BEFORE THEY ALL POP!), pull count raum back east. Keep bio 3, slow, paralyze on and haste yourself, bind whenever possible and blink tank it when you get short binds. It's not a very difficult fight at all, just have the THF reraise and tag it for TH near the end. I wouldn't advise having them melee, even if they disengage when it's bound, because quadrastrike and condemnation hurt like hell on RDM.

    Nah dude, did our first xarcs with 10 people, you can actually clear almost every boss and get every time extension with 10 people, and really it only takes probably 5-6 people to easily take down bosses

    One person sacs the rest of the bosses away and you pull the one you want off them and with a Pld whm Rdm and a dd or two you can kill each one of them no problem

    taking more people = paying less also, I wouldn't recommend joining a Dynamis only shell with a point system if you're only going after one or two pieces of AF that can be low manned. Some of these shells will break before you ever even get your gear.

    If you're lowmanning NMs, bring a BRD. Elegy sticks relatively easily if you have decent gear and it's by far the most important thing for anything lowmannable.

    Thanks for all the info, I don't know why but I had in mind that the demon NM couldn't be bind. I will probably give a try to count Raum solo with someone doing the sac for me (yes i'm rdm). I wanted to go low-man farm on this zone but most of my friend are already in dyna shell and I'm not willing to join one at moment or find random ppl to do it.
    Oh and I don't have tavnazia access to answer Dammerung.

    Oh, that's pretty good then. I don't know how much INT they have but that should last a bit unless they start resisting like some other NMs (?).
