on a related note, the RDM/BRD worthless Cerise Doublet is now RDM/BRD/BLU
Maybe the new Fomor have a way of droping Lv50 JSE for COR and PUP? [and more PUP?]
Someone with a mule in Bastok should check Brygid and see if any other jobs got expanded on that gear, [maybe the RNG is RNG+COR?]
lol I enjoyed engaging a VT elephant only to have it spawn little fleas non stop that proceeded to rape us until we were all dead. lol
That flea is Hundreds fists...Originally Posted by Sgtpayne
Was funny, I flee'd XD
Are the fleas sleepable? Do they depsawn if the parent dies?
They are sleepable, I ran by with a 75 NIN friend and there was a rdm/nin soloing the Marid and sleeping the flea.Originally Posted by Raineer
I do believe the rdm died, though.
Yes. No.Originally Posted by Raineer
1 chigger spawns each time the elephant uses a WS. They have really low HP. They're also truesight and spawn without aggro so if you're a BST and your pet triggers a WS while you are away, the chigger will despawn.
WSs elephants use include a status drain (he stole my utsusemi and spawned a flea simultaneously, and I got raaaaaped lol) and a conic damage move of some sort.
They would be good for fast merit parties perhaps. The flea spawns are based on time, it seemed, not on HP. It took about a minute before the first one popped on me, then 30sec after it seemed, for each?Originally Posted by Eaglestrike
edit:
Ah that explains it.Originally Posted by aurik
lol... one ridill beats on the elephant giving it tons of TP while 2 other ridills slaughter fleas endlessly.
i like it :D
Anyone have pictures? Can't get ingame for another 3 weeks, and I haven't seen pics of the elephants yet. -_-
This actually makes them soloable by NIN, then. It's easy to get TP before a mob uses a WS, so as long as the NIN saves TP to Jin the Chigoe each time it pops one, I can see killing these with relative ease. I'd like to farm them for the hair and skins.Originally Posted by aurik
Pretty sure the chiggers weren't high enough to chain @75, and the Elephant was VT. Might be doable at 72-73 when the chiggers spawn EM-ish though.
Unfortunately, the actual elephant's HP looked somewhere in the 7k range. Manticore style!Originally Posted by Raineer
NIN would get eaten alive when the elephant uses the status drain WS, I think. No shadows + has to jin a chigoe quick (those things attack really fast) = 1-2 elephant attack rounds without shadows. And predictably, the elephants hit pretty hard.Originally Posted by WizerdRemora
I fought a flee as RDM/WHM, I got .8 Shield Skill on one, was fun. I also ended up diseased, but when don't I? ; ;
And the elephants have 0 resist to magic.... :D (go go RDM/WHM and RDM/BLM team)
The elephants were only hitting me for 140-150, normal mob damage for T-VT. The Chigoe are unbelievably weak, also, and didn't attack *that* fast. Like not as fast as Zipacna, but not as slow as any normal mob you'd find. They were hitting me for 35-45 at max, so I think it's doable. Maybe with regen drinks, or something.Originally Posted by aurik
It's an elephant that never forgets... To kill! (Futurama)Originally Posted by aurik
In my brief experience with them, the Chigoe was hitting at near hundred fists speed, it popped and the nin I was with died in under 5s from full hp from those two. I went from 100-30% before I realized they were kicking my ass and used Flee.Originally Posted by WizerdRemora
And yet Paladin, the job Square want people to use more, would laugh at that!Originally Posted by Eaglestrike
Think about it.
