I personally don't think it's worth the time to kill it normally.

Yeah this is pretty much why it's brewed...

I mean you can be like dasva and go ahead and brag about how easily you can duo it to try to make up reasons to show everyone how you're awesome but idkkkkkk

**dasva** · 2011-07-14 21:17

Actually I wasn't the one duoing it.

Though once I technically 4 manned. But I was only running in for th proc and the nin was only running in for red proc. And I was just helping them out since they were doing it anyways and wanted some TH. So was more or less a duo. Idk the mnk there was pretty pimp so it died fast. The awesome award has to go to Dionikes and his crew

Is there a way to make that dumb bitch Lilisette attack Aquila instead of Haudrale in the WoTG mission "Darkness Descends"?

Convinced it can be duo'd with MNK and WHM, but only if we're left with Haudrale at the end instead of Aquilla... who proceeds to reset hate, go into stupid absorb modes and spam -ga III.

**Diddy Kong** · 2011-07-14 21:53

Roughly how much INT do sky gods and NMs have?

**JustaWAR** · 2011-07-14 22:11

Is Muscaliet reliably solable? The breath seems kind of scary.

Is there a magic number of EVA to safely solo Adze?

You can duo it with two healers, I did sch + whm a long time ago (80? 85?) although we died and RR'd a few times, and it was close. Then again I was on sch. If you want you can also probably have a rdm/whm/sch hold the spellcasting one pretty well if you keep its attention and use a barspell of the element it does enspell of. (If you see enaero, baraero yourself quickly.) You'll usually resist the next cast to the point where stoneskin eats it, then recast ss and be ready for the next bar.

As for the question her target is random, so other than just entering over and over there's no specific way.

**Francisco** · 2011-07-14 22:27

Yeah, basically we have no issue killing Haudrale... we let her solo it to ~40%, then I beat it up to finish it off... After that, Aquilla does a 2hr animation and gets pretty stupid, using -ga III and absorb damage to drag the fight out enough to outlast the WHMs MP.

**Kitrane** · 2011-07-14 22:37

Is there a list on wiki or elsewhere that specifically names which ws's cause which light effects? (ruby, amber)

Adze is a bitch from what I heard (I was on war the entire time so no comment on eva rate). Muscaliet I can see, it's really easy. When it breaths it has a long ready time and just sits there and turns, giving you enough time to move out of the way.

**cdgreg** · 2011-07-14 22:57

Adze is a lot of luck too based on what en-whatever you get hit with. Because you will eventually get hit with one or more, so as long as it's not en-doom repeatedly it's not too bad.

**Francisco** · 2011-07-14 23:03

I have both destroyed and been destroyed by Adze in 15 seconds flat. It's kind of a crapshoot.

**dasva** · 2011-07-14 23:23

Last time I did adze I was on thf solo with RR, GH, and SS. 1 evasion dagger and heed ring were my only evasion peices and I didn't get hit once. It only slowed me once which I had a temp med for and only did the super haste twice and since they were far enough apart I was actually able to steal it both times lol. So was a little lucky. But still it's accuracy aint that great on a lvl 90 evasion job.

**Churchill** · 2011-07-14 23:37

Fuck JPs, and as far as brewing Pankto goes...just make sure that after you proc you don't start brewing until he goes 2 legs, or be really careful. If you're trying to multi brew, then definitely wait for 2 legs. If he chainspells your brew is gone.

Re: Wyrm

thanks to whoever suggested that strategy earlier, 8ish min kill, super duper easy. Fucking raped that shit with my rng which I barely ever play :D

7 fights, 0 BB items for my friends -.- no speed belt either. But hey, 7 fafnirs!

Also: Any word at all on how easy/not so easy/minimal requirements for the turtle BC?

And, how easy is the KB one now? Like, is it easy enough that you no longer need to kite it?

**Deathbringer** · 2011-07-15 00:02

Whats a good strategy for PW? Not sure if I should kill minis or kite them away.

turtle bc strat has been posted before, but for the life of me i couldn't find it. off the top of my head, 4 blms could probably do it. adding refresh and a skillchain will just drop it.

KB is feasibly soloable, but it's all about surviving the turns. if you get hit with thunderbolt or en-stun > meteor, it'll hurt. probably won't kill you, but it can, especially with triple attack. easy low-man at 90. blms, rngs both do superfun damage, made only easier with gravity (i'd take a rdm or whm if you're doing it w/ rng... i kinda wanna do it just to see what kind of numbers jishnu's would put up on it).

edit: to your point about kiting, good DDx3, whm could probably take it down, add a bard for easy mode. have em /sch or sch for aoe stoneskin for thunderbolt/meteor. keep someone out range (35') after 5% to head in for the kill.

Anyone know the .dat for the 9 Cavernous Maws in and out of Abyssea? Shits lag me so bad with their glowy shit, I'm sick of it.

**Shiyo** · 2011-07-15 01:45

Flux give me bad FPS lag if I'm standing right next to one for some reason, yet my PC can max settings crisis 2 and ff14......
