Random Question Thread XIX: Welcome to Flavor Country

[Innuendo]

I'm planning on Teutates Subligar for legs. Could use ASA with mab augment.

[Nightfyre]

Anybody have some evasion sets for blu? or something i could use as a guide for it?

If you want pure eva, something like

Fugacity/Torero/eva+7/eva+7
Antares or eva Mirke/Derobade/Heed/Alert
Boxer's/Sveltesse or Scouter's/Ocelot/Magus

should be ideal. Some alternatives include OHat/hairpin, Alcide's/SH+1/Aurore, Denali Wristbands/Raven, Alcide's Leggings, and Gules/+1 items. If you want to add some Subtle Blow I'd go with Rajas Ring and some mixture of Alcide's and Peiste Belt +1 (head + belt would cap, body + belt puts you at 49).

How hard would you say getting to and killing the Iron Plate NMs are? I seen that mnk+whm can do them on wiki but I also see that they can do 6000 dmg or something. How was your experience at it?

[Innuendo]

How much does Atma of Royal Lineage increase cruor?

You can dd+whm the grauberg one fairly easily. Only problem is buff dispelling tp move (up to 3) and scapula beam, which his version would reset hate. Have healer kite a sec till dd regain hate, and keep whacking away. Altep one is ok, and the annoying part would be the stripga/hate reset move. I wouldn't recommend ule one unless you're confident/a masochist.

How feasible is it to kill Glavoid thf/drk and a whm?
Also about those chariots how do you get around that move I think it's called discoid?

[Valdan]

in salvage u ave everyone stand on top of the chariot to spread out the damage... not sure if thats the same in abyssea

[Valdan]

and for Glavoid.. shouldnt be to bad if ur thf has good atmas along with ur whm

Discoid is 10 radius around the current target of hate. Just have tank(s) stand about 3 away from chariot, and everyone else stand 9.9 from tank to distribute discoid damage. Don't stand on top of chariot like the above guy says; you'll just needlessly get hit by other aoe crap that you shouldn't have to.

Thank You, thats great advice!

Just for the record the beam attack hit my monk for a little over 6000 damage with prot\shell up duoing with a whm. Instant KO.-ceown

How do you avoid this?

[Rehn]

Out of about ~20-25 sunderer (did alot of raja for many people as well as my own plates) I have never seen scapula beam did 6k, much less anything close to instant KO. He either kept counterstance up or something, because I find sunderer the most easy out of all 3 heroes ironclad.

[Fievel]

Yeah, I've never seen beam do close to that. All three ironclads are pretty simple, Ule is the worst of the 3 but he is still fairly simple. just do Grauberg though, I doubt you'll have any problems at all.

[Chun Liroy]

Any idea on which ZM's I'll have difficulty soloing as nin/dnc with uncapped eva? <_<;

Edit: also, solid way to skill up eva without killing myself?

[Chronosphere]

Easy setup for Tyger?

I was thinking NIN/MNK/WHM/RDM/THF

or err a second MNK instead of the NIN

Get 2x regen atma and 1 evasion atma and grab the black mandragoras in altep. Get 3 at first, and if you can handle that, grab more. Should cap fast that way.

There is also the mandys in Chasm if people are cleaving the mandys in altep. I say this because I know there are usually 1-2+ groups at mandys on my server.

Seems like the two easiest atma for me to get is 15 regen/tic. Will I even be able to survive while doing that? O.o I haven't done much of anything abyssea to know the strength of the monsters. I don't have the ability to use 3 atmas yet.

Can RDM solo Mx'Grah Tier II VNM in Mis Coast? I tried on DRG but it hits faster than I can HB. Can solo Rani pop NMs on RDM as well other VNM II's with Kite+nuke method. Is it possible on RDM?

I'm sure it's entirely possible but it'll take for fucking ever
