Would that theoretically work for any gaze attack? Just move to first person and look left or right? lol
and fyi, "king botter" (aka allegedly me) had no clue about this, so dont make it sound like EVERYONE knew about it.
I honestly didn't know about it either. I just find it funny that Esvedium slammed his face into a desk because I called it an exploit.
He probably thinks you're putting it on the same level as the Salvage Dupes and the Portofurnace black abyssite, which its not...but theres no way thats intended, atleast for Grim Glower petrify, since you shouldnt be able to move your head if you're petrified, duh.
Though you'd also think being a hardened block of stone, you'd have some huge PDT as well >.>
You can change gear while petrified/asleep though lol, how does that work or is it magic.
You can also change your shirts pants and rings in a second, and swing your weapon in a flurry of strikes (a WS), and then change out of those clothes in a blink of an eye...must be magic.
Old Ballista tactic there. Maybe if you guys actually participated, you would know more tricks!
Rofl I got this to work on Gukumatz (and the surrounding Peiste) yesterday. It's funny I never knew about this until this thread.
Full parry set with two people dual wielding swords in ballista.
Find an awesome spot to battle it out, ruins, a sheer cliff face, etc.
Make your characters walk backwards and forwards while still facing each other, swinging and parrying each others attacks.
Bonus points if its raining or storming.
Record the whole thing and post it on youtube titled "DUAL OF THE FATES: _______ vs ______" and set it to Pirates of the Caribbean or something.
???
PROFIT
Proto-Omega solo on BLU:
Was my first attempt at it so its a bit sloppy lol, took the meds along for saftey although I'm fairly sure it can be done w/o with some patience. Should have set dissv instead of rush+dive for some poison DOT.
The Palborough Project - SMN. Wasn't really a challenge skill wise, though I did run a bit low on MP. I do not recommend this unless you are a very well geared SMN. I was running with 1509 MP at the start and only had about 150 at the end. Leviathan kiting with Spinning Dive did the trick.
I'm not paying a mil and a half for my ring god damn it.
I'd like to point out that the gaze thing doesnt work...unless its something specific to grim glower allready being up. But Gargoyle Terror Eye hit me when I was looking away in first person mode, and it wasnt a matter of lag or whatever because I can always turn away from it in time.
Boss can be gravitied and bound so just kite nuke, otherwiki does say it spawns an add every 2 mins but I never saw one. Doable on RDM, BLM I dunno maybe.
Grav/Bind start to resist after a while so worth killing quickly (started out with chainspell), found that only fire nukes did decent damage (1-1.1k Fire IV with close to best nuking gear you can get for RDM), was resistant to everything else.
Yeah petrify thing doesn't work for me, no idea how to make it work. Pressed literally every button on my keyboard and mouse that lets me move and nothing worked.
