Delve 2.0 discussion

@Darkmagi

Beats me. Same thing tends to happen to me with 68% PDT, 50% MDT, Ochain, and ~1800 DEF

Luckily it's always happened at 1-2%

Next person to continue the 6/18 argument gets a time out. We've seen enough of it. Either stay on topic about actual strategies, experiences, etc., or stop posting.

I'll clean this thread up when I get home.

2hr Animation - Distinct unpreventable phase change, must be worked around, ex. ram DT phases.

Anyone have any evidence against this proposed pattern?

The treant gets the 2hr animation once water is cast on, not sure if it's water damage period or not. I haven't had a chance to do it again since it was mentioned that during the animation it takes full damage, but that seems to be it's gimmick based on the report.

[Aramaic]

Anymore info on Xaddi Stats for B path or C Path. Also wondering if anyone had done any shield path for viable options.

[Brees]

Mal is correct. we used water on it to force the 2hr animation and it gives u a small window to deal damage.i was able to land a nice 26.8k barrage last night. the amount of time given to deal damage may be related to the damage dealt by the spell cast on it. we noticed larger windows to deal damage as the spells cast went up in tier (water > water II > water III > water IV) its as if the the mobs window stays open for a set damage dealt/tic. it's very similar to the colibri that u cast magic on to deal damage during the reflection phase.

[Brees]

We were unable to trigger anything on Yumcax2 but were only MB'ing with aero and aero 2. 5 mins of attempts and no triggers. we're going to try again tonight using the tier 4/5 aero's. has anyone noticed a trigger yet on this mob? also overkill on Morta2 works well for zerging down during fealty. that mob is the only annoying one in the zone really.

[Khiinroye]

We got a blue !! trigger on the yumcax, but it didn't seem to do anything except drop the dia aura and maybe lock the doom move. The treant isn't bad with water triggers and people figuring out timing.

Asylum also works to block charm on the belladonna if you need the extra time. If you give it TP while someone is charmed, it will eat someone. Someone said that it didn't do it often outside, but inside it used Full Bloom every time it could.

[Brees]

hmmmm, no tp feed during charm, definitely gonna try that. any idea how u got the blue trigger? our setup has been Pld, whm, brd, cor, rng, rng, sch.

[Vathris]

On Cor/whm with 1108 ranged acc in Marjami Ravine delve, i had 40%ish hit rate on Cailimh (20-21 yalms away but soul voice preludes), On the rest of the NMs 90% and higher.

I feel like there has to be some connection between the animation and the type or category of effect Maybe I'm forcing it, but I think it's unlike them, and counter to recent statements regarding this type of "tell" to introduce something like this arbitrarily.

Somebody posted on the WAR forum on FFXIAH today that path C hands augment is 15 acc, 3 STP and 2 DA. Can anyone confirm this? that's pretty damn good augments

[Alistrianna]

Are there any messages every 3 minutes in the new Fractures that affect the NQ mobs?

[Doofus]

yes but not entirely sure what, one of our members suggested haste in marjami but dont really know how to confirm

side note, anyone got more info on raaz or morta? we can kill morta but its annoying and have to abuse fealty and raaz i have no clue, people post stuff on it but dont know if they actually killed it yet
trying to get inside strats worked out but we cant figure out raaz but i think we will get a good attempt at tree today

[NynJa]

Just pummel the raaz with multiple damage sources and falls over. Slash / Pierce / Blunt / Magic

I have already outlined Raaz mechanics.

I've tried searching all over here, AH and OF and can't find this mentioned anywhere... is there any sort of prerequisite I'm missing to be able to obtain the new planchette for delve 2? Tried to trade a Phlox Yggrete on 4 different characters who have naakual key items and can get delve 1 planchettes but the NPC just ignores us. Mission progression? Fame? Have to have killed any one naakual since the version update Monday? I feel like it must be so obvious since we seem to be the only people having a problem with it. Thanks for any help in advance!

MNK/RUN x3, WHM x2, BRD and RDM.

Any combination of DD should work(minus piercing DD). Not exactly sure if /run was taking down aura because it was spamming the crap out of Uproot. The RDM was spamming Aero2 when aura was up. We did notice a few !!'s though.

Mostly uses Firefly Fandango from 100-75%. Potted Plant unlocks at 74%. Root of the Problem and Canopierce seem to unlock at 24%. Can use Uproot at any time, which unlocks Tiiimber. Though I don't think we ever saw one above 50%.

[Prothescar]

friends only managed to get tree down to 59% before timing out with PLD RNG RNG RNG BRD WHM. dont think RNG setup will be the way to go for it, unsure what else would work though since it cockblocks melees so badly. I don't remember if removing aura stops it from using Timber or not, but I have vague recollections of the WKR version being capable of using it with or without the aura present.


edit: nvm, post above me > this one

did you just spam holy waters and cursna for timber or did it just rarely use it?

Talk to him first than trade them. They added a new text line after update yesterday before you trade new planchettes.
