Unity concord

[dasva]

Anyone have any info on Voso?

[Fwahm]

He's really evasive (takes 1100-1150ish accuracy to cap), and can use Shocking Whisker (does >2000 damage with Shell V, and is instant), and Blink of Peril.

As long as you have a way to mitigate the damage of Shocking Whisker, he's fairly easy.

[NynJa]

These "125s" are really anything but 125. Largantua, vedrfrodr were both much easier, and seemingly had less evasion to deal with.

Me and a friend went to go 3+3 box spectral worm, and...yeah. Pretty much chain casting quake 2 and stonega 4 for 1500+ dmg

[Sechs]

Anybody tried the new Serket? Really wanna get one of those daggers.


@Ninja
Vedr is 128 I think
Was the amount of Stone magic the only issue with the worm? Or was he uber evasive too? Because if magic is the only issue that's easily solved with either a GEO or a RUN, or both.

I know, the fact that a 128 is easier than a 125 is mind boggling. I thought Largantua was a 128 also.

Magic isnt the only issue though:
20:25:22The Specter Worm uses Full-force Blow.Kehhiko takes 1026 points of damage.
20:37:32The Specter Worm uses Full-force Blow.Kehhiko takes 1392 points of damage.
Thats with PDT-31% Also with 1003 accuracy, I parsed 66%


From what I've read about the scorp on AH, it has a megahuge poison that deals 250hp/tick, presumably from venom storm.

[Sechs]

Which I bet it's not poisona-ble.
Ungh... they sure listened to people whining about Unity being too easy lol.

[Byrthnoth]

I have trioed the worm with RUN, GEO, SMN (2 minute fight?) or 5-manned it with DNC, BRD, GEO, GEO, WHM (3 minute fight?). Just bring a lot of buffers and do damage to it.

People say bring antidotes.

Yeah, I was thinking of trioing it myself with pld geo smn (dont have run geared). Everything that was added this patch seems to have a massive reliance on GEO though.

[Chimerawizard]

Specter Worm's coffer gave the great sword, Kladenents.

[sahearniitth]

Remedy definitely takes off the poison from the new Serket, I assume antidotes do too. /nin helps as well. Short of a Yagrush WHM, I would recommend you bring plenty of meds for the poison or it can kill you off fast. Other than that the fight isn't anything notable but I did use a PLD and hate was on him the whole time more or less so don't know if it has any st physical tp moves that are an issue.

[Sechs]

I don't get the deal.
Antidotes and Remedies remove the poison but Poisona does not? o.O Wut?

I guess a GEO with Vex/Attunement could help reducing the potency of Poison or at least the chance of it to stick?
Otherwise an SCH's Regen5 can reduce the impact of being poisoned? (you'd still get a dot but with the potency of Regen5 its impact would be greatly reduced)


I don't know how Thernion dagger is for THF, but for ddBRD it's the best offhand atm, in spite of the only 228 skill.
Speaking of Daggers, DNC really gets fucked on offhands.
Can't use Verd's dagger, can't use Serket's dagger, can't use Garuda's Dagger.
Wtf?
The two new daggers from Vagary are useable but they're nothing special, altough with the lack of better options I suppose they can be OK for DNC...

[NynJa]

No one said its not removable by poisona?

They just said if you plan to wait for poisona instead of using antidotes, you might as well be asking for a raise.

[Sechs]

I dunno, can't reduce that damage with MDT gear or Meva or something else? Is it fixed ~250hp tic once it sticks on you? (which, once again, could be partially avoided with Vex/Attunement up).
Does he cast poisonga or something that comes from a TP Move?
If the range isn't huge you could still leave a RUN or PLD tank in range and setup a PT with ranged players. Like, dunno, a SCH to make SC with the PLD and then sexy magic bursts?
(or if you have a Yagrush WHM I suppose it's not a big deal either)

[NynJa]

You never fought Serket, eh?

Venom Storm reaches 40 yalms

Um every dot dmg in the game except helixes/kaustra can't be lowered in anyway outside of manawall.

[ColenzoRidesAgain]

Didn't we used to use low level poison pots to over-ride the hardcore poison? I could have sworn that was a thing. Before engaging of course.

[Sechs]

I did several times but it's like, what, 10+ years ago? My first fight was a LS one with more than an alliance and I wasn't even level 75 yet lol, in 2004.
Either way, thanks for reminding that.


@Colenzo
Yes! I totally remember doing something like that lol

You never had your garlaige xp party ruined cause someone was fighting Serket and you were getting hit with this epic poison (before they made it so its aoe wont affect anyone without enmity on it)? lucky you lol

[Sechs]

Uhmmm might have happened but I'm not sure, didn't really exp much in Garlaige (underground), don't remember being down there more than 3 or 4 times maybe.
My memories of PTs being ruined back then are mostly about people training stuff to the entrance of zones. In Garlaige too but mostly in Crawler's Nest (before they patched so mobs disappeared if too far from their spawn point).

Kinda strange how back then it was a pretty frustrating thing to happen, but now all that is left in me are funny memories, I'm kinda fond of them lol

Don't think it worked for serket
