Wouldn't 1 SCH be enough if they freeze their buff timer at the runic? Takes 8 seconds to re-embrava. Can unlock for Hastega with /SMN on All Enemy Floors also for the lulz. At the 12.5 min mark they re-embrava and once more at 25 min. Gives you the option to have another DD in the mix and by having someone permanently at the rune, you'll have someone to take you up instantly.

Can't lock on the port-up lamp, just the order/time lamps.

If I think of any suggestions I'll post them, just in between runs atm.

Ok. I changed the status party message to be an <addtochat> message (user-only), and whoever's running it can notify the rest of the party as they see fit. Also increased the default delay from 30 seconds to 45 seconds. Added an extra filter on the Body Boost command message, should hopefully fix the spurious version.

And finally, added a bit of code to estimate when to switch to single floor climbs based on time remaining. EG: if you have 21 minutes left, and allocated 3 minutes to the boss, you have enough time for ~4 more floors, and should do single climbs from floor 96 or higher, but random climb below that. Have to configure which floor you're targetting. This message is in <addtochat> as well, since there's a fairly high chance of it not being relevant.

100. Finally.

1 - Spec - Amorphs - Black Pudding
6 - Lamps - Order
9 - Spec - Amorphs - Mousse
12 - Lamps - Code
20 - Stealthlord - Rheic Korazin (SAM died)
25 - All - Undead
33 - Lamps - Code
35 - All - Vermin
42 - Leader - Cornum Chariot
50 - Spec - Amorphs - Black Pudding (BLU died)
53 - Lamps - Order
55 - Leader - Scutum Chariot
59 - Spec Fam - Puddings
60 - Dabargar - Euxine Coat +2
66 - Spec Fam - Flayers
75 - Spec - Bull Bugard
83 - Spec Fam - Puddings
91 - All - Beasts
99 - Spec Fam - Chariots
100 - Dvali Jonah - Thaumas Gloves

I was beginning to think we weren't going to do it before update. Kinda seemed that a change of set-up, getting extremely lucky or using clipper (which we won't) would be the only way we'd manage it. So glad to get the monkey off our back. Shame about the drops but happy we got a 100 in before the stopper just to say we did it.

We actually took the 59 > 60 floor midrun as safety just in case we ended up with fuck all. We did get pretty nice floors though I must say.

Also for other people. 3 mins is a very conservative time to kill 100 boss (think that was quoted earlier). Took us 63 seconds from engage to death to kill it and our Embrava had worn by this point too. Way easier to kill than expected. It was no harder than the Vamp and hell 20/40/60 without temps are probably harder.

**transmit** · 2012-03-21 17:14

Our groups first 100 clear. Two deaths... took one single floor port to land on floor 60. Fillmode/.dats/ApRadar, no clipper.

**Jem** · 2012-03-21 17:23

It looks like the Fast Cast on Thaumas Gloves is identical to the lower floor gloves. So it's probably the same for all gear from Nyzul that is like that (like Phorcys Korazin).

**noodles355** · 2012-03-21 17:30

4% FC/2% recast

**Byrthnoth** · 2012-03-21 17:30

Did you check using an odd amount of Fast Cast too? Like putting on Rostrums and checking again?

**noodles355** · 2012-03-21 17:39

Checked at different haste values, not FC values (was told it's additive?)

10% Haste, Unknown FC: 52 seconds (Possible values FC: 3% or 2%)
3% Haste, Unknown FC: 57 seconds (Possible values FC: 2% or 1%).

Edit: RR1, thf/whm

**Byrthnoth** · 2012-03-21 17:43

It's not additive. Check Reraise recast with 0% Haste and with/without something that has an odd Fast Cast value.

Common options:
Homam legs - 5% FC
Atma of the Rescuer/Lightning Beast/Tusked Terror/Ambition - 5% Fast Cast

Actually, you'll need to be weakened as well <_<;

**noodles355** · 2012-03-21 17:49

Off to abyssea then. Recast plugin is more accurate than off the menu right?

**Yugl** · 2012-03-21 17:50

Grats. I could understand 1 drop on both of our 100 runs (Only had BLU/THF), but your group rolls with a THF right? Ridiculous drop rates in that case.

**Motenten** · 2012-03-21 17:54

No, the other way around.

**noodles355** · 2012-03-21 17:59

In that case it might be lower than 4/2... well will check in aby off menu now.

Yeah we had a THF, and he says he got a TH8 proc on it. Set up was what we've always been using. BLU (almace), SAM (masa), DRK (Apoc), WAR (Ukon), THF, SCH

**noodles355** · 2012-03-21 18:37

Thaumas: 1m55s

Dusk + Loquac: 1m57
Thaumas + Loquac: 1m54

Dusk + Ambition: 1m55
Thaumas + Ambition: 1m53

Dusk + Ambition + Loquac: 1m54
Thaumas + Ambition + Loquac: 1m52

Thf/Whm, naked in other slots except for MP gear.

**Motenten** · 2012-03-21 18:54

Can you confirm spell (Reraise?) and whether you were weak? I know Byrth suggested it, but it does complicate things a bit.

**noodles355** · 2012-03-21 19:01

Sorry, yes. Weakened in all cases, Reraise 1.

**Motenten** · 2012-03-21 19:08

Edit: Fix copy/paste typos

**Kipling** · 2012-03-21 20:26

Pretty sure they were just unlucky. We've only seen 2 at the least, and I've posted a triple drop from 100 before.
