Escha - Zitah Data

[michaeldue]

So how about we try to begin and find out how to reliably proc these NMs???

From reports even T2 NMs can drop Easchelix+2s if you have procced blue !! so it would be really nice to see if we could crack the code.

Not to mention it might make some of these NMs a bit easier if we could proc them.

There seems to be some kind of experience overflow glitch if you have Echad ring, Corsair's Roll, and Kupofried out all at the same time. I was getting about 5000 per kill with a chain 5 until I dismissed Kupofried, whereupon I started to get about 12000 or more.

Kera would still be better for MBing, no? (presuming you didnt hit the 40 cap elsewhere in gear and opted for MB dmg over FC/refresh/conserve MP)

Probably assuming near max augments. This seems close enough to be worth not dealing with rng

Well you'd still be dealing with RNG to get MBB on Helios as well, since gear cap is 40.

Granted I havent entirely mathed everything out, comparing the various INT/MAB/MBB builds available for whats best.

Is there some sort of a gimmick for fleetstalker? Seemed crazy evasive (our war was having huge acc issues at 1300 acc) and outright resisted about half of our nukes (with full buffs from idris geos). We tried wsing from the back hoping to remove the aura but it never worked. It also resisted sneak attack.

um how does one resist sneak attack?

[BerenTebogo]

Just had some wonkiness trying to lowman Fleetstalker as well. There's definitely some gimmick I think. Unless they just made one of the non-HELM T3 20x harder than the other 2.

perfect dodge!

Apparently a french sense of humor. He said his sneak attack wses did 250 - 380 dmg or so after the aura. Not sure if that's like a mostly miss or what. For reference he got a few TA rudra's in in the 10k range.

Will need to test this, but exping on Dragons I have noticed that there is a wide range of exp. Some will give 4k with chain while others will give 12k so it could just be random luck with which mobs were up.

I don't think I've ever heard of a mob taking less dmg from SA... did this include SA both from behind as well as bullied from the front ones?

Clearly the answer is to land -25% evasion from lizard or beetle

True, true.

That is basically his gimick since he unlocks "Occ. ignore dmg Vorseal". The lower his HP gets the tighter his shield gets. It has an increasing chance to outright ignore your nukes or they just do 0 dmg. Our best attempt last week was 3% and that was mostly to a good helix landing somewhere in between the shield spam. For now our idea is to pair Tact Roll with THFs sneak attacking and hoping to penetrate the shield.

[BerenTebogo]

So, looking at inspirited boots (just won, nobody wanted, lol) I see 118MEVA and 6MDB and 25INT. Is there a better option for feet when capped MDT? I can't think of one.

Edit: Remembered to take a picture this time. No unleash used.

So over on the ah they got full despair helm stats

Path A: HP+50, VIT+10, Potency of "Cure" effect received +5%
Path B: STR+10, VIT+7, Haste+2%
Path C: accuracy +10, pet vit +7, pet dt -3%
Path D: STR+15, Enmity+7, STP+3

So doesn't look like despair set will really replace anything for pet sets though might end up being a cheaper/faster way to decent dt until you can play with the rng gods

IMO helm even without augments is the best physical ready piece for anything that matters. 5ATT and 5DA is a lot, yeah, but 20ACC 20ATT is more useful more of the time. The rest of the set can fuck directly off though, yeah.

if you are useing melees:
gimmick 1: WS from behind when he gets his wall up
gimmick 2: when he has his wall up water nukes proc blue which make it for a split second less evasive so melees can hit it
consensu: make your melees sub /run, use magical ws from the back since they cant miss to get the shield down completely
gimmick3: watch out for beastruction below 25%?

Paying 3M gil to whoever can find out how to stop tiger from levelling up....

[Keme]

Kill it. You'll see, it'll stop lvling up.
Waiting for my gils...
