    Tiamat Fill in the blanks

    Our LS will be trying Cop Wyrms for its first time & I wanted to develop a couple of strategies. If anyone can fill in the blanks below aside from what I have posted, it would be helpful. Using Pld/War as tanks.

    Thank you,

    Pete

    Dispel: Blaze Spikes

    Stun: Can he be stunned?

    2 hour: So far looks like he Mighty Strikes a lot.

    Spells: Firaga III

    Special Attacks: Spike Flail

    Sleepable?

    Status effects Whm will have to remove:

    Can be stunned.

    He mighty strikes a bunch, and does blaze spikes... make sure you are pld/nin nin/war or war/nin

    FiragaIII - Make sure and have 2-3 people stunning this.

    Teabag wing or teppid wing... close to instant, but stunnable... does high damage and does a rough plague that drains mp. Whms want to devine seal and remove this.

    he sleepable.

    Ground and flying time is also static. good luck

    Might help you to look up the adds while you're at it. They keep the fight from being routine.

    On Midgard our tank parties are 6 drgs alternating whm and rdm sub. They spam healing breath over and over and tank that way.

    Umm 10+ Tiamat wins with PLD/WAR onry. An LS on my server solo tanks him with 1 PLD/WAR.(they kill Tiamat with less people then most kill Fafnir with.)

    I do admit PLD/NIN has its advantages.... but don't discount all job combinations... as each has its pros and cons, depending on support jobs within the main ally.

    Or if you're not used to Pld/nin tanks. Pld/war with aerial armour support works well too. Two Whm/Smn works well and having a rdm/smn will make it even easier. A level 37 garuda can easily live through touch down so if you're paying attention to the time you can time it so AA goes off right before he gets hit after touch down. Every ls has their way. As long as it works~

    You only need 1 stunner for Tiamat.

    If you have any more than 2 then you're seriously wasting alliance slots/jobs/time.

    That was my reaction too but I'm sure there's a method to the madness.

    I think he means kite in the air so you get out of range of the fireball attacks but really...I could be wrong...

    PLD/NIN is the sex.

    have you tried it?

    if you kite it in the air fireballs do significantly less damage. we dont' do it ourselves except to move him back into a good spot if he gets out of place, but you could if you wanted to.

    We've gotten over 20 Tiamat kills w/ PLD/WAR and Aerial armor. Whatever works and you have the support for. We've done NIN recently, and yeah its pretty good, but its not fight-altering better. Whatever you are used to our good at.
