    Possibly for the SMNs you could have a NIN and WHM in a corner take it until AF goes off. Or a wear a lot of wyrmal gear and assault breastplates...

    elemental tower avitars can be stunned, even Rumah. This is, Instant cast summon astral flow, the summoner starts with an elemental out but do not be fooled, it will instant summon and astral when it wants.

    If everyone saves tp, toss on a couple stuns at 50% and everyone go nuts and you will probly be fine. the elemental had been asleep so we didn't see it coming.

    The Aern one has a lot of potential. My LS recently tried it for the first time with a smaller group of 13. Was rather difficult, but a decent amount of coins were rewarded. From the Aerns we saw + the ones we killed, you can clear over 150 coins on this. That doesn't include the Temenos Grhah, as we never saw it.

    ...I have never landed a stun successfully in the avatar tower on a Mystic Avatar. Not even levi. Maybe its a high resist rate, but we beat the tower without stunning an AF...

    We've never had a Mystic Avatar get a stun off...we have 3 stunners when we do that one and not a single one has ever missed, it really isn't that hard if they are paying attention.

    are we talking about the Elemental Tower where the Mystic Avatars come out of the chest or the Central one where they are just out there?

    the ones that are from the chest we were able to Stun every time (even Ramuh). the Central one i don't think can be stunned.

    the central tower with avatars is quite interesting and i always wondered if therewas a secret behind the avatars. When you first start it, all mobs are elementals. When you kill a certain mob, an elemental will change into the avatar. ie; ice elemental changes to shiva, kill shiva and air elemental changes to garuda etc... (although im unsure of the actual order
    ) we played around with it for a bit but ended up wiping after a lil bit with like 5 mins left so just opened up chest.

    The elementals change into Avatars based on the elemental wheel.

    Kill Fire -> Ice becomes Shiva
    Kill Ice -> Wind becomes Garuda
    Kill Wind -> Earth becomes Titan
    etc.

    The easiest way to clear the zone is to kill in the following order:

    Fire > Skip Thunder > Kill Water > Go back for Thunder > Walk past Light/Carby > Kill Earth > Go back for Wind > Kill Shiva > Kill Light/Carby

    As far as I can tell, Elementals and Avatars have the same drop rate on coins so avoiding Avatars will save you time (and EXP)

    lol your avatars actually have time to Astral Flow ?!?

    Y HELO THAR SKILLCHAIN+MB


    We just kill them in the order we see them (with the exception of carby, who is saved for last).
