Naakual - Notes, Strategies, confirmed drops~

[Rocl]

1) how enfeeble-able are they, 2) are they worth enfeebling if they aren't resistant?

They are semi-resistant, but not too bad. I doubt you'd land anything ice-based vs Achuka, but it's not immune afaik. Nothing I cast ever got a complete resist. However, afaik, they all use cleave-style attacks, which would mean para/slow wouldn't matter, right?

Re: Tchakka stun resist, I did notice Shock Squall missing but I just assumed it was my shitty skill '~'

[Obsidian]

Paralyze affects TP moves/cleave attacks, Slow doesn't though.

[Mairja]

I don't think slow or para will make any difference, at least as far as Colkhab goes he doesn't attack particularly fast, and yes the attacks are aoe. I did consistantly land Diamond Storm on him, however I don't know how much it actually helped. He does have high evasion though, so every little bit helps I suppose. Also landed Tidal Roar without any issues, but again no idea if it actually had much of an effect.

[Aumaan_Kujata]

I was able to land Slow2/Para2/Blind2 on Achuka within a few casts when the colonization was around 30-40% last week. Para was naturally a little more annoying than the others; blind appeared useless as usual. Not sure I even bothered trying Addle. Attacks were paralyzed often enough that I tried to keep it up, at least until I got depressed toward the end at my bayld accumulation and just started nuking mostly full time (and echoing above, thunder nukes outperformed water nukes, but maybe resisted a little more often).

I think it probably IS worth bringing a rdm along to debuff it if one is handy (and willing to get horrible bayld unless they can beat the whms to some cures). Definitely not a game-changer like it was on some old fights, but it's nice to not be totally pointless for a change.

[Slycer]

More than anywhere else, Wildskeeper Reives need to be adjusted so that everyone is getting the same bayld values as long as you maintain some baseline level of participation. We already know that it's a joke how different the bayld numbers are from job to job when you're playing a job "properly," but that's amplified x10 (literally) in Wildskeeper Reives because of the amount of bayld at stake. Considering it's actually a fight against a strong boss, not just a fight against trash mobs and tree roots, it should reward "proper" participation and not require RDMs to be meleeing random shit when they should be debuffing the boss to have any chance at good evaluations.

How do drops work, since it is a reive?

[dasva]

What about tp stealing? Since there is less putting tons of bodies on it might that not be effective?

[Rocl]

Not sure I understand? It's a reive, everyone gets their own award. You're guaranteed a Naakual drop. If you get a drop you already have, it won't load. You'll get Moko Grass/whatever + Naakual gear when the Reive is complete, just like you'd normally get shit after a Reive.

ah okay, thought it was just for groups and shit. Just wanted to make sure I had it right. I can basically get the KI walk in there when a bunch of JPs go and get a chance at those sweet h2h?

Sounded too good to be true, lol

[Rocl]

Yeah, that's my current way of clearing these. You'll want to come on something that gets good bayld though, I guess, just so you can recoup some of your bayld loss during the fight.

[banggugyangu]

I did Achuka as pup with blm pet, not sure if this is normal or a bug, but with the "Scanner" it didnt cast any nukes, only aspir/drain at low hp, then I removed the Scanner and tried again, then it casted thunder5 all the time, which did really much dmg to him
Shouldnt it be "weak" to water spells?

Sounds like either low magic skill, no ice maneuvers, and /or sent with low hp. If the puppet determines a resist rate less than 50% or so, he won't cast the spell. If that's on all nukes, he won't nuke. For absorb spells, this isn't the case. The only way he will avoid absorb type spells is if the target is undead or doesn't have the attribute it would absorb (aspir).

My Jobs are below:

SAM BLM NIN WAR WHM BRD,

I am guessing for best byald recovery, I should go BLM or whm?

Or should I twilight zombie the fight on SAM?

Probably doing the Trex/shark depending.

Any ideas?

P/S: I have never done any of these fights...

[Ophannus]

SMN ftw I'd think since they can Hastega like 30+ ppl.

[Byrthnoth]

SMN is the most useful probably, but it gets absolutely shit for points.

I thought I took pictures of my Tchakka evals, but I didn't, woops. I deffo recall way better evaluations than my Achuka foray on BLM.

[DmS]

Is it ok for me to come in or this a ls only thing? I never see any one doing this mob except jp.

[Tymon]

I would say who cares if it's LS only. If you're worried about being polite then just hang around and don't help on the main mob.

[ccf]

I would have thought all reives are for everyone to come.

You get individual chests and is not stealing their drops or anything, so why would not just go.

Afterall, you have to contribute to get the drops, I would just go if you have the KI and want the drops.

[DmS]

I know that, but watching the stream doesn't seem so.
