    That 1 tank 1 heal video is sweet. I am gonna try to get my FC to try that out.

    Got my win just now, the LB3 slotted in perfectly on the second set of adds and made it really smooth. I did mess it up on the first try though (forgot Manawall) and flew off the edge. Didn't even need Manawall on the win as I cast it earlier.

    I got landslided right off last night after getting bailed out of gaol. Clearly wasn't in the red, still got ganked. Kinda shitty as it happened twice.

    I know this has been done before, but it was pretty fun.

    Solo tank:

    Solo tank & heal:
    Spoiler: show

    Little sloppy since it was out first attempt with that setup but still good fun.

    Mostly posting this cause some dumbass in CT said it was impossible (I called his darklight WAR friend terribad for trying to MT KB and losing hate in about .5 seconds).

    What was your kill time on the 1-tank/1-heal out of curiosity? We tried it for the first time this week and we think we should be aiming for 4:30. We're also still splitting the gaols up with one up front and one in back, so there's no incoming AoE on them. Less efficient but a lot easier to position.

    Don't recall kill time, but last phase we ignored the super bombs and just killed him, so whatever speed that comes out to be.

    Honestly I think 1 tank/1 heal is the easiest way to do this fight. You end it every time at the super bomb phase, and the early phases blow by so quickly that the tank often only gets one stack. As a result there's very little opportunity for someone to fuck up and wipe the raid.

    I was in a group that tried to 1 tank it and we made it to the final phases a few times but couldn't quite pull it all together.

    One issue we often had was him using Gaol then immediately jumping, which is really goddamn annoying.

    If he's jumping during the gaol then your party's dps is too low. Need to push him past 55% at the Landslide after Bombs at the latest.

    I swear the caster earring for this thing does not exist. 0/14. I've seen 9 bards, 2 striking, 2 tank, 1 healer.

    The fight is basically an exercise in choreography. Once your party understands the movements, the fight isnt that hard.

    15 caster earrings and rising. There are other drops for this?

    Once a group of 8 people are on the same page and understand ANY fight together... it should not be hard. Just saying.

    However, I saw like 5 caster earrings on Sunday on 6 wins... haha so I agree with that.

    That's incredibly impressive. Not sure if my FC is baws enough to finish it but definitely want to give it a try. The longer the fight goes the more chances for people to screw up and wipe.

    I have three earrings myself and have probably done this fight 30 times+ helping people at this point. I have never once seen a casting earring; it's kind of odd at this point.

    1 tank 2 healers? With 5 relatively well-geared DPS players, you should definitely not be hitting that gaol set, which means people aren't pushing buttons hard enough or might be playing too conservatively. Even if you do get the gaols, it shouldn't cascade unless sepulcher fires on one of them.

    I mentioned it in another thread but they really need to make EX primal accessories purchasable with Rowena tokens.

    I have ilvl90 weapons for all but 2 jobs and at this point I'm just getting them for giggles (I was lucky that none of my relic+1s were outdone by the EX weapons).

    It was a semi-PUG (put together by someone I met doing PF primals that Flisted me for future runs) and I didn't really know anyone else other than the leader, so idk how competent they all were.

    Wasn't a very serious attempt at farming anyway (one of the members jumped off mid-fight yelling that Odin was up and we subsequently left to fight him -_-).

    I did 10 kills on Tuesday. Not a single caster. We were tossing Healer earrings by the end though.

    Haha, nice.

    After clocking 1-tank/1-heal kills in the ~4:40 range on our first set of attempts, we went back in today and set a new PR, 4:13 from the pull. We're skipping the very first mountain buster consistently, sometimes skipping the third landslide in phase 2, killing the heart before the tumult, and killing Titan during or just after line bombs after the heart. After reviewing the footage a little bit, we're pretty sure we can shave off another ~10 seconds and -- with friendly RNG -- we could hit 4 flat or sub-4.
