I've been reading this thread daily waiting for the most important bit of info: wtf does the Rancor Collar do!? Someone said they got it, but no info has been posted on any site that I've checked.

i got a cloth but only 2 items, prolly blue 200-300% is 2-3 items as all of us got 2-3 items. red is capped at 350% from procs.
anyway, u guys prolly already know, in order to get white, u need to proc highly vulnerable magic/ja/ws
once u proc that highly vulnerable magic/ja/ws, a random magic/ja/ws of the same category will become normal vulnerable and only gain other lights %s
so, if u just want Key Items, just synchronise and proc the highly vulnerables 1 at a time to prevent confusion, eg if earth highly vulnerable, just everyone focus earth magic first. And yes in order to get 100%, you need to proc highly vulnerable 4 times....
so far i can say it is entirely RANDOM from ur setups, and even ichis or T1 magics counts....We got our 3rd highly vulnerable proc off a kurayami: ichi....which really sucks and means we have to cycle almost every shit we got ._.
P.S The nin actually have to wait for kura: ni to wear off and cast ichi so it sticks and proc.... so you may want to start off with tier 1 enfeebles first.
finally, aegis PLD and COR are the best jobs in VW imo lol
not sure if JP sill breaks the forums, so just incase
Code:ランカカラ turns up only ffxiah in google and the item text is: [Neck] 全種族 命中+6 トンベリの怨み LV 87 All Jobs from the days of playing on the JP client and the little japanese i read it says "tonnberi no stuff i can't read" so no help there =/
怨み = grudge
so yea back to square 1 haha
So what's the strat on Krabimanjaro people have used to clear this?
Things go smooth till he starts using Venom Shower repeatedly and by repeatedly I mean 3x within 45 seconds. lol
oh also forgot to mention i got Cadushi Grip from Lord Asag, can't tell you what the hp drain does coz i gave it to another ls member right away and went zZzz
We went in with just DDs(mnk, war, drk, drg) and took it out. We used angon and cor rolls to help over come its defense boost it seems to obtain past 50%. Seems to also gain an evasion boost, or atleast it felt more evasive passed 50%. Regen/Cureskin help with over coming venom shower + mdt gear.
I wish I had a stronger strat as far as that fight goes, but basically we hammered it before it wiped us with Venom Shower back to back.
Blm damage didnt seem to be an issue by the way, seems to be the safer way to go if your shell has a beefy pld(ochain/almace) to hold hate.
Next tier Fairy is a pain though...
Got the periapts of concentration (windy t1, blue--quantity) and focus (windy t2, yellow--xp). Concentration seems to add a flat 25% to your blue alignment at the end, while focus adds 12% to yellow alignment. The green alignment one (on a mule) also added 12%.
25% is dissapointing.....
anyway is it true u only get fanatics and fools drink with both readiness abyssite?
cos im sure i saw my PT mate used fanatic and he only did bastok tree with us as we have not start sandy.....
Maybe the periapts increase the cap also? So like blue cap may be 525% with the periapt instead of 500. Just a thought, if someone with them wants to check. But yeah, 25% is w/e. I assume down the road in the next couple voidwatch updates there will be more of the same periapts and they will stack up, similar to how abyssites were added/stacked in abyssea with each update.
The periapts are a separate source from triggers and cells, so it does raise the cap; I forgot my cells on the ant, but we had 350% blue. The people who used cells were at 525%, I was at 375% blue, and everyoen was at 237% yellow.
Hahava is easy to down with Smn, Blm for damage and Pld/war (no Ochain or Aegis for us) Bio III + Tidal Roar make a huge difference in his attack power (-40% atk).
Raksha: Vengeance is a conal/magical aoe and inflicts Weakness for 1 min (800~1300 dmg, before Weakness), can be stunned.
Yaksha: Oblivion, used under 50% is a physical aoe (can be blocked and evaded) with all stats down (-110) around 1500~2000 dmg. Best way to survive is to use Sentinel's Scherzo and Earthen Armor together (they both stack for -75% DT total) He really likes to use this move under 25%.
All damage are divided by 50% after Raksha Stance and returns to normal after Yaksha Stance.
I found his defense very high in general. When he is not under Raksha Stance, Predator Claw does 500~800 dmg and Geocrush 1650~1850 dmg everytime (at least for me).
He has 70 000 Hp too (like Celaeno), casts Fire IV/V, Firaga III/IV, Firaja, Graviga, Slowga, Sleepga, Bindga, Silencega, Addle and he's very resistant against Ice.
EDIT
You can't obtain his title if you don't have the fully upgraded Abyssite, even if you are in the alliance with a stone.
Carapacho Cuffs come from the homosexual crab.
Attack rolls,acc rolls, and if needed mdb rolls all give a big boost on some of the nasty new NMs. Krab is pretty defensive, so chaos rolls help. Vampyr is very evasive so hunter rolls help, Celaeno has a lot of magic where mdb rolls would help. Its not a needed job to get something completed, but its buffs are very much welcomed for any DD party ontop of adding damage to a fight.
Having an emp bard helps aswell, as you can have x2 marches + any other song.
