Random Question Thread XVII: Toy Surprise Inside!

you cant back tank during wind, unless you mean get shot across the stage while having your back facing it, in which case yes you can back tank it

2 90smn/rdm for refresh and convert, duo Bakka. What's the best avatar to use since it uses ice magic, ifrit or shiva? Also 2 lunar abyssites, best atma selection? VV, ultimate, ambition, full moon are some of the decent ones we own.

Brew it.

Raja too for that matter... Sweet Jesus those are ridiculous. I honestly don't know who's worse, Rani for the BS Charmga or Raja with the SJ locking and Aga 4 spam.


Funny story though, and Zag can attest to it as he was also there but a MNK on our server used Brew and took it down to like 0.1% ... and then the bitch just wouldn't die. She recovered to around 35% and we had a RDM come in with brew... only the dude forgot chainspell was down @_@ so he had to come back with a 2nd brew.

3 Brews to kill Rani used by 2 diff people. Now, she's a pain in the ass to be sure, but that was just such monumental failure I wish I'd had FRAPS.

Raja isn't that hard... aga4s were nothing to be afraid of with shell/MDB. I was able to tank through SJ lock even on warrior just by being cure-bombed as needed. Neither mob should require brewing, just players who don't suck and a reasonable, basic, sound strat.

^ Eh, even with Future Fabulous & Shell 5 it was hitting pretty hard. But then most players are garbage and we had people feeding him TP instead of on pots, weakened people scattered all over getting caught by AoE etc etc...

Makes me long for the pre-ToAU days when you actually had to know what the fuck you were doing in a PT. All I can say on the matter is thank God WHM is so damned easy to play with Atma (and /SCH - still seeing way too many WHM/BLM or WHM/SMN these days. SCH is NOT HARD TO LEVEL PEOPLE). I use MM Ambition & Rescuer, works pretty well. I thought about Allure but seems pointless given how little hate Cure 5 and 6 generate, unless someone has a better set up?

[Zerk]

Your spellcast esources has waltz 5 mislabled. Try to //updateresources. If it doesnt work, go to your windower/plugins/resources folder, open abils.xml in notepad or notepad ++. Search for walts V and see if the prefix is /jobability. Or the line may be missiong completely.

It does say /jobability in the prefix... i did try updating resources and it didn't fix it either..

Looking through logs, shell 5 and no MDB atmas, swapping in MDB gear, aga4s were hitting for an average over of just about 1.1k with two tanks engaged.

But then most players are garbage and we had people feeding him TP instead of on pots, weakened people scattered all over getting caught by AoE etc etc...

There's your problem, not the mob.

[Kamil]

Can THF and RDM duo Sobek?

[Deader2818]

I solo tanked Raja on MNK. Can eat ga with no problem as long as your whm(s) arent retarded

[Kamil]

Edit: Wrong Thread.

[Koyangi]

No answer yet to my post above.

[Eldelphia]

no bliz 5 yet and no MM :/

Kirin, ultimate, hell's guardian?

Yeah probably.

This is why you will never finish Masamune, and one of the many reasons people hate you. Raja is a complete joke and you make Rani out to be about five thousand times harder than it actually is.

where is a good place to solo/duo blms 75-90? well at 75-?? puddings but later? and please dont say abyssea or smn burn etc. just normal blm duoing

[Darkmagi]

Duo/solo inside abyssea. Cap pearls on VNMs/Ephmerals and just stick to some nuke friendly mob family.

[Cairthenn]

Can THF and RDM duo Sobek?

Bring a Stun along and it shouldn't be a problem. Otherwise potentially risky.

yea but the problem is we can only stay like 30min in that area (well we are new to this addon just got it yesterday maybe we did something wrong?) and we wanted to lvl outside too

Rdm could /blm. Would that work?

[In Flames]

Is there a decent way to solo your own time extensions? i.e. can i get to 120 mins time saved up by myself, or would TE chests not come by often enough? Mainly want to do it so I can start doing fame quests and solos.

Have blm and rdm at 90.

Bump.

[Dooom]

Gonna suck when he starts using enfeebs, unless you wanna bring along a bunch of remedys? IDK.

I'd imagine Ifrit? idk, not a smn solo pro. Ifrit has the added advantage of being immune to amnesia, too.
