It's when he kicks you in the face with his heel I believe. However, I don't think it's realistically avoidable from my experience. It's just a matter of everyone hurting him and when your meter blinks red, spam all of your defensive and hate-reduction moves and hope you're still standing.

The tank just gets to flail around like a loser, contributing pretty much nothing.

Apparently i'm not leet enough to get an answer when asking such a question in my LS.

I've done it with 6.

CC is a little more annoying because of the split room. having two whm and two dd is important. You MIGHT be able to do it with 4 as long as those four aren't idiots and you aren't constantly getting ported back (ie. may put you into a time crunch). but 6 for sure makes it a lot easier/faster.

**miokomioko** · 2012-08-15 12:47

The trick is usually to immediately sleep and/or bind the one antling that's usually secluded off to the side when you appear in the room. Once you manage to kill everything but that one, it shouldn't be hard at all to kill them around the same time.

WRONG TAB, FUCK.

**Rakiel** · 2012-08-15 16:17

I just did the BRD chest in Cutter's last night with 4 people; 2x WAR, 2x WHM. As long as your party is halfway smart and coordinates well...and can get through the rooms a few mobs at a time...it's absolutely no problem to get.

I have BLM and WHM at 50. I want to do a pure DD next. What is best, or are they all about the same? I am thinking MNK, but maybe WAR or DRG?

**miokomioko** · 2012-08-15 18:52

I would vote whichever appeals most between MNK and DRG.

MNK is top-notch single-target DD. DRG is quite good single-target and AoE DD. WAR is solid DD with survivability/tanking abilities. I see all in regular use right now.

**Fievel** · 2012-08-15 19:05

DRG is up there with monk, it's a very powerful job.

The big thing that makes a difference is if the mob has a weakness to a specific element, such as miser with fire.

Just pick whichever you want to play more.

**Aozora** · 2012-08-15 19:48

ideal blm weapon/gear and double melds? not including stardust rod

**Raldo** · 2012-08-15 19:51

I know this has been asked before, but I seriously can't find it.

You'll have a better chance of meld success when you do a Tier3 followed by a Tier4, or the other way around?

**Enygma55** · 2012-08-15 20:09

T3 > T4 is better in general.

BLM gear
double int lightning brand
double int hat (your choice)
double m.atk boots

**Aozora** · 2012-08-15 20:34

thanks. and the hands and body? or are those af?

**solracht** · 2012-08-15 21:42

How much acc for ifrit extreme?

**Aozora** · 2012-08-15 22:41

why no m.acc melds for blm? i have 411 and i have resistance problems, especially on to kill a raven stage 2.. resists thundara at least 2/3's the time

**Alkimi** · 2012-08-16 02:14

People usually use Buttons in a Blanket for food and switch out jewellery if they need magic acc, starting with Mage's Choker and then Coral Ring +1 (or 2 of those) if they need any more.

**Psion** · 2012-08-16 05:17

anyone know the success chance for a +1 gear and double +15 int meld and triple +15 int meld? wondering just how much my wallet will probably get raped trying to go for a good mnk hat. >.<

(also, fuck the look of raptorskin pot helm. even /display head off isnt enough, just knowing the fact that anyone checking me will see that hideous thing in my equipped gear is enough to turn me away from it.)

**Enygma55** · 2012-08-16 05:26

BLM
Body is AF or Militia Coat
Hands : AF, mage halfgloves, militia ringband, boarskin ringband of Lightning. Its all pretty interchangeable

M.acc will come from your neck piece or rings as needed and your food.

For double melds a +1 will usually grant another 5% on the meld. 2 Tier III will probably be around ~18-20% and a triple sits around ~9.5%. (going off memory)

Iffy EX can get away with ~400 Acc

**Psion** · 2012-08-16 05:32

I find the 18-20% chance for 2 teir III a bit hard to believe since it was 16.5% chance for a +17 and +18 teir IV materia. sucks if thats true though >.<

**Enygma55** · 2012-08-16 05:37

I might be estimating a bit low and more thinking T3 + T4 double at 18%. Maybe 23%? lol sorry cant give exact numbers too tired to test and find out.
