Monstrosity: Abilities and General Mechanics

[dasva]

naw it's been there

[Myriads]

It's the same lightbulb and sound that Chocobos got when they learned a skill in the Chocobo raising mini-game that is now oh so old and forgotten.

[Karbuncle]

I unlocked behemoth just recently too... when this Dec. exp campaign started... Its at about level 79 right now and I'm halting it for a moment to unlock Hippogryph cause i wanna try a THF job.

whats the requirement to unlock hippo? besides behemoth is a THF job, just not as a "main" WAR/THF

Yah, I want THF main for THF abilities personally.

Hippogryph is unlocked by 50 Roc, which is unlocked by 30 bat i think

Hippogryph's job combo is pretty amazing. Save up 200TP -> sleep target -> fantod -> SA -> profit

Does it get any physical dmg moves? I know with falcoor if you could pull it off fantod back hell was pretty rocking. Hoof volley would be the sex lol. Also on falcoor Choke Breath is physical...

Choke Breath is physical on mobs too, its blinkable by utsu

That could be pretty awesome if it works like ladybug did. In that SA with spiral spin worked not only on main target but additional ones as well

buy cock with infamy > 30 cock > 50 Roc > Hippo I believe is how it went.

All of its attacks are physical, however Back Heel and Hoof Volley cost too much to use after Fantod. Choke Breath is really weak and I doubt you could get it to be stronger than a melee attack, but I haven't tried.

Thats right, Roc is a big bird so its unlocked via Cockatrice. I'm playing it as we speak (level 30) i just forgot how to unlock roc, which i already had at level 40 or so lol

[Prothescar]

Choke Breath actually makes me wonder if all types of weird physical damage are Sonic damage. It uses a physical damage formula, but bypasses physical damage reductions... just like Requiescat, Murasamemaru, etc.

When I lvled Hippogryph I just stuck to the 30 cap in Buburimu and SA+Back Heel'ed mobs when I had the TP. It ended up one shotting everything except Helldiver anyways. Though when I did see Helldiver, a SA+Fantod attack one shotted it too, doing about 1800 damage at Lv30.

[Karbuncle]

IDK, Requiem is described as Sonic damage as well though.

I've been doing around 2~2.5k to the bats in Zeruhn with Fantod+SA normal melee attacks; it's got a pretty all-around great set of TP moves. Can't wait to finish it up and try AMphitere though, bloody beak sounds fun

[Hitou]

What unlocks amphitere anyway? I haven't seen any info on it.

75 Roc / Hippo / Cock

While bloody beak is fun for a minute I honestly didn't like it all that much(the mob), got it to 50 and moved on.

Well if it worked like spiral spin and allowed you to SA multiple mobs at once.... might be useful
