Bahamut info thread #2

[Cephius]

Funny that you compare this to AV because most people here would argue that it was, and still is, broken. It's not we're put up against an unkillable mob though, we have a key item and no dat file evidence or any clue on what to do with it. If there was a way to get to this second BC, I don't see how someone wouldn't have found it already.

Perhaps the fact that maybe it's not accessible until conquest update? Thta's exactly the way it works with Mithra Trackers BC, I don't see why it's so hard to think maybe it's the same here.

That's about the only other possibility left. Guess we'll find out soon enough :/

[mdn]

have people been back to the portal in riverne since JP midnight?

[Volken]

Yes.

[killerc4]

the mithra bc doesnt require an item does it? You just wait and go back to the bc. In this case however we have an orb that needs to be found. Drop? quest? maybe the BCNM orb guy is asking for 300 Kindred Seals now? lol

[Thaesus]

Did anyone try zoning into both sides of Monarch Linn? Maybe after you beat him, he returns back to his zone? I'm just throwing out ideas while bored at work.

The Mithran Trackers BC quest requires a Letter from SHiree X you get from an NPC in the safehold once per conquest tally

[Arvin]

There is no wait time between getting the two letters for the Shikaree rematch.

When you finish the first one, you can go back and get the next letter. (As in, the first rematch with only 2 of them, then get the letter for the 3 mithra fight.)

Well, my LS on Leviathan beat him last night and I just wanted to note a bug that we found before you enter.

While 3 of us were in the cutscene prior to entering the BC, the brd in our pt casted ballad. All 3 of us were given the message, "Event Skipped" and then the screen turned one color and locked up. We could still type in Party chat, but everything was locked. We all d/ced ourselves and logged back in. Unfortunately we could not view the CS again. But we could enter the BC.

Just thought I would mention...

[Faranim]

The 2nd fight likely requires the rare/ex orb that was found in the DATs.

Just don't know where the orb comes from, perhaps Tiamat, Jorgy, and Vrtra now drop it?

Mithran needs key item, but not a regular item like the orb. How long til tiamat pop? lol

Hmmm....

[BRP]

That would be one SICK BCNM hehe ;o. Kirin style ima betting.

That could be challenging, but again, they are obviously nerfed to make them ridiculously easy compared to their real counter part.

[Arvin]

That does say its an 18 man fight right? I translated through babelfish but I got junk, I did see 18 cap mentioned but I don't see how that could work. >.>

[caffine]

I translated it and also got (from the link on that page) that they could not enter that BCNM. They said they are going to try at the beginning of the new week.

Try clicking the link for "eLeMeN" on that page and translating that.

It sounds like they are going to try at the end of the week and see if there is anything.

But basically, from what I can tell, is it's 18 people and all the wyrms are possible.

Edit: fixed. Sorry he's a demon. My mistake

[Khamsin]

Good, because Diabolos isn't a wyrm.

[destruction]

18 smns! all diabolos 2hr then break out carb ftw!

[BRP]

Getting closer.

Anyway, has another visisted the avatar gate yet?

[Sykes]

That would be one SICK BCNM hehe ;o. Kirin style ima betting.

Or like the Ultima/Omega battle in the CoP storyline where you fight one at a time with Bahamut at the end.

My guess is that we'll find out how it works after the tally or after someone kills the CoP wyrms post-patch. I think that the other wyrms dropping the orb is a definite possibility.

[Maguspk]

CoP wyrms dropping the rare/ex orb seems to be the most plausable idea put up to the table so far.
