fire in the sky ENM

[Rancid]

Does anyone do this ENM regularly and can tell what relates to when Razon uses self-destruct? I usually go duo with my blm friend and in the times I've gone it seems totally random and can blow up twice really fast (within 5sec after first explosion) even if you only hit it one time. Other times it takes a beating for so long without blowing itself up. Is there any pattern to this self-destruct? if not, me and my friend will need to lvl smn to 40 just to do astral flow kill for ezy win

i did this enm a day ago with my smn friend (i was blm)
he opened with inferno and i with fireII wich took him bout to 50% but then he just went and chain exploded 3 times in 20secs....and knocked us off the field....

is there some proportion in how many dmg u deal over time and his explosions? or is it total random...we totally gonna try it again....but we were really suprised how fast he exploded.....

I solo this NM on smn, I'm 8/12 on it.

Every time I 2hr, one of his cluster bomb thingies self destruct for crap dmg. From what I can tell, his final self destruct kicks in just a lil after 3 mins from engaging it, or about 4 mins from entering the bc. IMO basically like snoll

Edit: just read Nemesis' post. I think dmg over time can be a factor now that I think about it. One time I duo'd with another smn and did inferno at the same time, 10 secs later he blew us out of the bc.

I do this ENM every week with two other friends. You get a key item from Tavnazia "Monarch Beard" (guy standing in the path near the AH), and you have to farm a giant scale for the path there.

It's 40 capped and I believe he is really weak to thunder, or maybe magic in general. The two summoners run in and use judgment bolt, while the blm casts Thundaga. Judgment bolt will do over 600 damage, while Thundaga will do 500 damage. At this point he is almost dead and after a few Ramuh swings or a blm nuke he goes down. He never really has time to get self destructs off.

This is the easiest 2500 xp ever. Possible drops include Crossbowman ring (crap), Horror Voulge (crap), Ether Ring ($$$), or Woodmans Ring ($$$$$).

500 dmg thundaga? hax.

From my understanding the first two Self-Destructs are warning shots and the third one is the one that kicks you from the ENM. just zerg 4tw like Time bomb and Snoll Tzar
