Yeah that would be incredibly broken if it did lol. I mean if they all stacked.... I mean you could get like -87ish % def I think using that geo agnon and steps and dia3. Cap ratio at 300-400 att <.<

I'm just very intrigued by the 1K WS while unbuffed. If it's true, there may be a different way to weaken the NMs aside from Col. rate.

There seems to be a lot of speculation about "weakening" things.

I'm kinda skeptical. Is it really so hard to believe that it's NOT intended to be killed with you, your mules, and your friends?

[Seha]

No...just not in 5 hours each time.

These fights sound really cool. From what I understand (and correct me if I'm wrong), it's sort of a community HNM thing, like WoE mobs in the wild where everybody gets a reward. A LS group could make an organized go at a Naakual, or people can organize PUGs and just throw their bodies at a Naakual en masse. More than 18 can go and nobody need be excluded, as long as they pony up their 100,000 Bayld KI. And nobody is really penalized if stragglers come in, unlike in WoE where the aggro mechanics made it detrimental.

I don't think he's saying omg needs to be easier coalition weapon must have secret effect to make this fight easier!!! So much as looking at the discrepancies between his experience and the other dude's.

There appears to be some sort of difference when one guy with less buffs is doing consistently more damage than another guy with more buffs.

Do we need to face south while fighting on iceday and using locus tonics? No. But figuring out why one bee fight had higher defenses than another is a relevant topic of debate which should be pursued.

I think it's generally accepted that there are a number of statuses that affect the strength of Naakauls beyond the fight itself. I can understand wanting to explore the best way to do so, however, I can't help but think the exclamations of "5 hours is too long!" will be met with "suck less" by SE.

Keep in mind the 5h seems to be "subpar" setup, twilight dd, no cure on dd, dd pt w/o buff, I'm sure it would have died A LOT faster if they had some form or cure+buff to their ryu drg. As of now it really seems like it's made for 12-18 well organized group.

not sure if documented but just got 6k xp/bayld for 3x tag morimar bivouac supply run

Bee is likely weak to piercing hence the 1k+ Drakes? read through and no one considered mob-type weaknesses or the like, unless I missed it. In anycase, get yo relic rngs out bitches.

[Stan64]

Meant for Skirmish, know about the 3 perm KIs from Naakuals.

No KI for completing Skirmish, not even a title. Completed both objectives in Rala.

I think most people assumed this but we were comparing a Ryuno to a Ryuno so the piercing bonus wasn't really relevant.

[Kenrusai]

ah, ok.

[macross]

Has it repopped yet?

[Tachi]

Yes, 3 or 4h ago I think, not directly after the maintenance ended.

Did you actually witness it popping or was it up when you entered the battlefield?

[macross]

I want to try it but a bunch of slackers in my shell who haven't even started OPs till yesterday.

Question on Couriers Probationer quests. People earlier in the thread said the Provide: Foret and Morimar should be available at this rank. I still only get Support: Ceizak as an option. Is there a pre-req needed for the Provide ones? Someone mentioned the Mummers Morale boosting quest. Would that be why I cant do Provide yet?

[Prothescar]

If the camps are up on your server then the Provide tasks won't be available.

[Borgasm]

Ok, thank you.

[6souls]

I'm sure this is common knowledge to some people, but I found that the Morimar reives have safe spots where you can solo the Bedrock Crags with ranged or magic damage without the risk of attracting aggro. The middle crag can be hit 25 yalms out.

Spoiler: show

I'm out on BLU atm for no good reason, but I soloed this one in the images a couple nights ago on BLM. It took almost 3 hours, but it was worth it for exploration purposes. Also, it takes 10k magic damage before you get an evaluation.
