He drops the best gswd ever, all is forgiven

Like everything else on the game, if the cool item is for a drk, goodluck. The GS has crappy delay and attack+3 isn't going to do jack. The triple attack +3% is nice, Brutal earring with /thf parses at about 5% activation rate so the GS may be nice, but it's not like a Drk's new "Ridill" so to speak.

Triple attack proc during spinning slash, imagine that.

Double attack on spinning slash just adds a normal hit, not a crazy 1k+ hit... I'd imagine triple attack is the same, unfortunately

hmmm...maybe SE nerfed spinning slash. Have you tested ground strike with brutal earring?

Its all WSes. Double attack adds a normal hit to the WS damage.

[Robert]

a double attack on WS adds one 100% TP hit to your WS(non crit if its SA'd since its only first hit crit), I'd imagine triple attack does the same thing, which is why 300% TP double attacked ground strikes dont add an extra 1500 damage, is because the hit is counted as a 100% one.

thats how I understood it anyways

Really? From the damage I've gotten from DA SSs it really seemed like it was just a normal hit. I guess its time for more testing

Double attack in Steel Cyclone easily addes 300-600 damage to it. Easy way to test Spinning Slash is to do a Slash at 100%TP and SA+Slash at 100%TP and record those numbers. Do SA+Slash and wait for double attack to proc, the difference should be a Slash at 100%TP.

We just did this fight with PLD tanks and 0 BRDs. Got to about 10% and it spammed the para move non stop. Like, no shit, every 15 or so seconds. A couple stuns got para'd and 2 GoH got through. We wiped shortly after. PLD/WAR with AA rot does just fine. Nothing special either, AF1 PLDs. Did a light SC and MB Thundaga III. Did about 900 damage when it wasnt fully resisted. I like this fight :D

Only one person on fairy has the title.

[Krandor]

Our 2nd attempt ended up with him sneaking GoH thru at 5%, instantly followed by lava spit, and with only 1 WHM we couldn't recover from it :/ Might go again in a day or two, he ate up a good chunk of xp for some people.

Ryko, Did the GS drop on him? <_<

[Caudle]

Our ls Poisoned just killed it on Diabolos. First people to try it that i know of. Used 2 hours etc on the first fight, wiped at 3% with 21 accts 19 people. Got back up and took it down no 2 hours or anything, just a little more patient. We got 2 Claws a hide and a meat from him. No weapons. Does anyone know if its 21-24 or more like the wyrms? If you want pics etc check out our website http://www.ffxi-poisoned.com. This was a hell of a fun fight, can't wait to fight him again!

[Weltall]

Easy Prey!

i can see this guy being pretty freaking simple after you take him down a first few fights. GoH aint got nothin D:

[Ryko]

Nice shit welt.

Ryko, Did the GS drop on him? <_<

No, a part of me would have died even if I were happy.

[Syn]

Nobody will know whether it's 21-24 hrs or not because it's only the second day of expansion.

[Jawas]

we got this shit down to 17% our first attempt tonight with 15 people and 2 war/nin tanks. pretty slow fight down to when he went ape shit and spammed gates of hades twice in 45 seconds. we recovered the first one, but couldn't manage to survive the second. any suggestions on avoiding or coping with gates of hades spam? stun only briefly delayed it, like gigaflare, he eventually still did it so that wasn't an option. we got boned orz.

also we got some -1 sword and -1 shield PLD/DRK off the paladin troll in the area before we engaged. any idea what those are for?

We rotated stuns on our BLMs, and did ok, we only had a limited amount of BLMS, 5 BLMs on stun = easy.

The -1 stuff you craft into useable items. Its on Mystery Tour.
