    It probably won't be as exciting as the other thread since we're not going to attempt the wall strategy.

    Maybe if AV is spawned on multiple worlds simultaneously, its strength will be divided between them?

    I believe that every attempt made generates in valuable info about the fight for the community. Small things perhaps, but in the end useful. I believe it's quite.. lame to use the wall strategy and we don't believe that's the way it's supposed to be done. Eventually when we've lost enough exp i bet the members are going to suggest the wall strategy though, haha. Our sea hacker Suiram is going over what we're going to do and i'll let him post his thoughts afterwards.

    Drops and me getting own'd.

    Still gathering everyone at the moment before we try and poke him. (Lots of job switching)

    No doubt about it...

    AV pop rate has been increased.

    For the love of god, ask another LS to pop a Jailer outside!

    Summary of Kupo AV (from an observer):

    100%: a lot of poking around, wyverns killed, no 2hours after this
    60%: 2hours came back, popped wyverns, they got killed
    52%: popped more wyverns and AV moved a bit, out of reach and went unclaimed. someone caught him and pulled him back but not before he regenned to...
    62%: more wyverns killed, but then AV uses invincible.. followed by a benediction for 27198.
    99%: mijin gakure

    They tried it straight up for a couple hours, trying different things because they wanted to do it the "right" way, but after a while they took it to the wall. Can't blame them. They gave it their best before resorting to that.

    I'm only posting this, btw, as a reference in case anyone was curious about wyvern killing or HP% for certain actions, or how much his bene was at a certain HP%.

    I don't really intend this to turn into yet another discussion about how an LS should or shouldn't fight AV.

    This mob is not realistic to deal with EVEN if you could completely negate all 2hrs. Aeroga4, Aero5 and Tornado2 instant cast are not able to be dealt with, period. He moves too fast, attacks too fast, and does too much damage.

    We put up 2 solid attempts at kiting the normal way, and even if you could do it, it took a solid 30mins to 1hr of chain nuking from a full blm alliance to get him to 60% without worrying about the blms dieing. Imagine trying to do that when if a blm gets hate they die. Not realistic.

    I realise people want to be all moralistic about doing him the right way, but unless there is some way to stop him casting aeroga4 and hitting tanks for 300-600 damage, not going to happen.

    We did it on the wall to 60%, but then it did that shit that khamsin posted up there and totally decimated us behind the wall - call wynav, meteor (90% blm alliance wipe - reraise), benediction, mijin gakure (reraise people die again).

    fucked up mob, seriously. If you want to kill it without glitching you need 5 things to happen:
    1. No 2hrs, there are 4 or 5 2hrs that will simply decimate the attempt (call wyvern at 6 wyverns, manafont chainspell, benediction, mijin gakure).

    2. Slow down the melee, or slow down the movement speed, or both. Impossible to kite as it is, because he attacks fast as fuck, and cant be outrun. Ofcourse, once he has stripped your shadows, if he doesnt kill you with melee quickly enough he kills you with:

    3. Ridiculous spells. If Kirin's Stonega4 and stone5 were instant cast, he would present a challange to the best of linkshells today. If you are prepared to cop them or have reasonable time to restrict the damage, they are ok. But instant cast on a mob that is already decimating you just with melee... come off it.

    Stopping any one of these would not be enough to make AV manageable (I am talking a non glitched fight here) - melee, 2hrs, or spells, any one alone is enough to decimate an attempt (see what happened to us behind the wall - a quick 2hr successions wiped us with no chance of recovering).

    edit: depoped, we werent ready to pull it back to the wall fast enough
