Apocalypse Nigh BCNM Speculation

[Tenseiga]

Yes, Storm of Fate shows up as completed in my quest log.

Edit: NVM I'm an idiot, I did beat Bahamut the day it was added, however, I didn't get the last CS for it until last Sunday, just before I went for Bahamut 2. Next conquest wait huzzah ~_~

I may have missed this earlier in the thread.

Is it possible to get more than one of these earrings if you do the fight again?

I have 2 jobs at 75 and one at 68 that could benefit from 3 different earrings.

What do you think . That would require forethought on the dev team's part, which they have shown time and time again they aren't apt at.

How would that require forethought lol, that doesn't even make any sense.

Requirement:

- You need to compete Rise of Zilart, including the last 2 cutscenes. Here's the recap of the missions right after you get sky.
Sky access -> Beat all 5 AA singles OR just beat Divine Might AA -> Kill Eald'Narche -> Talk to Aldo in Lower Jeuno -> Go to Norg

- You need to complete Chains of Promathia, including the final vocal song cutscene. After you get to choose the 3 rings, go to Prishe's room and then go to Blueblade Fell in Lufaise Meadow for final cutscene.

You only need to complete CoP to activate first part quest, but you need to complete Rise of Zilart to activate to second part quest.



Guide:

- Step in the palace in Ru'Lude Garden to get a cutscene to trigger Storms of Fate quest.

- Go to Riverne Site #B01 to fight Bahamut Battle#1. Simply win the battle to complete the first part quest.

[Need to wait for conquest update to continue]

- Step in the palace again to get the cutscene for second part quest. It's called Shadows of the Departed.

- You need to go to all 3 normal Promyvons; Mea, Dem and Holla to get a Sliver for each. Just touch Memory Flux and you'll get them, no NM will pop or anything. They are in 4th floor (final floor, near BC).

- Return to the palace to finish the second part quest.

[Need to wait for midnight JST(next day) to continue]

- Step in the palace again to get the cutscene for the final part quest, Apocalypse Nigh.

- Go to Sealion's Den to get a cutscene, click Gate of the Gods in Hu'xzhoi to get another, and then lastly Trascendental Radiance for cutscene. Go to Empryal Paradox and prepare for a battle.

Battle against Eald'Narche and Kam'Lanaut
Need a kiter, stunner, and heavy damage melee here. WAR is a good choice because they can tank and do mighty strike 2 steel cyclones. Kite Kam'lanaut and kill the kid as fast as possible. The kid can use (SPAM) -ga3 spells, enfeebles and an aoe terrorga. Get 300% TP before entering and have icarus wing ready, unload everything to the kid and hopefully you can kill him before aoe terroga can do alot of harm. After the kid is killed, the rest of battle against Kam'lanaut should be easy. He still have that Light Blade that deals alot of damage, becareful of that.


- After you win, go talk to Aldo in Tenshodo for a cutscene.

[Need to wait for midnight JST(next day) to continue]

- Go to Norg and talk to Gilgamesh to choose your earring reward! You can only choose 1.

[AyrlynofDiabolos]

Great Guide and nice forum. We just beat the bc with rng/nin rng/nin war/nin
whm/nin rdm/nin blm/whm. Zerg rushed the kid, stunned one ga, and ate the next. I was bound and pertrifed but he died before I could use icauras wing. Rangers do good damage and fast.

The duke however is hard to tank straight up silence dispel and slowga make it ruff so I kited him around.Rangers worked well here. Maybe a nin could tank him straight up but I wasnt evading and with slow no chance. He has a ranged ws called light blade with blinks down it did 1445 on an earlier attempt also great wheel is a aoe damage move I think blinkable. He hits for 200 ish and 60 enspell damage.

The kid is resistant to magic but duke can take magic and physical damage. Niether have more then 10k hp each. Now I gotta wait till tommorow for earrring :wink:

[Krandor]

The Duke was a joke to tank as a PLD. He hit me for around a 100ish a pop, and Light Blade I don't know, he only did it twice in the fight, first one hit one of the WARs right after a hate reset and one shotted him <.< (Did like 1482 damage), 2nd one hit me while I was invincibled and obviously did 0.

[Dezzimal]

I'd like to know how much the enhanced magic burst damage is on the Static Earring. If it is the same as my AF2 gloves then that will be a no-brainer.

[Jackietreehorn]

People were saying it was the difference between a 1192 Water IV burst and a 1140ish one without, so 4-7%, or something like that. Not sure if much more testing has been done yet.

[Dethsbane]

If you don't kite the older one, he spams a TP move called Great Wheel... he did it 3x in a row... ouch! Fun fight and I love the BC arena.

[Enchy]

What's the BC music ;3?

[Yaltus]

If you don't kite the older one, he spams a TP move called Great Wheel... he did it 3x in a row... ouch! Fun fight and I love the BC arena.

That's actually the younger one if I remember correctly, even though he is physically taller. Assuming it works like the time you fight him for ZM8, you just got unlucky and the Great Wheel spam has nothing to do with straight tanking or kiting. You could just have easily seen Light Blade or any of his elemental armors.

[Banigaru]

Kalumnaut or whatever the fuck his name is, the older one does Great Wheel, its an AOE hate reset move that can be blocked by utsusemi, he has raped my monk with it many times, he tends to do that like 3 times in a row too. Pay attention to the element of his en spell too because he will absorb that into HP if you nuke that element ><
