    I say start a new thread. These assault threads are dense enough with info already.

    Last night we did the Walls one, we had only 1 wall left and 5min left, so We ran into 2 qirin and just decided to kill them quick, first qirin dropped mine and friend got, he was running to wall now, while we were fighting the 2nd qirin, He dies and i get another mine (NOTE: friend still had his mine)


    So it is possible to get a 2nd mine even if someone already has one.

    Surely this had to have been tried before, but can anyone confirm -ga spells don't work on the walls?

    Finally beat Periqia tonight, so I put up my own custom map and strategy, rather than what I read from others

    From my experience, he will choose all 3 rooms WITHOUT enemies, in which case he will turn EAST at the 3-way intersection following the rooms, or he will choose all 3 rooms WITH enemies.

    I did this last night and we just cleared the whole fkn zone of enemies and won with 3 minutes to spare. Nin mnk blm whm rdm brd.

    Did leberos and got unlucky with picking the right walls to blow up, so we ran out of mobs to kill for bombs.

    Assault fucking sucks. lost all 3 of my tags not because of any lack of skill, but because we're unlucky.

    I concur.

    Unless you're going in with only 3-4 people, all the t1 assaults should be easily clearable despite bad luck.

    Like the escort mission. We literally ran over 9 crabs, 5 or 6 pugils, 5 or 6 flesh, and had him run away like 5-6 times, and still won with a few minutes leftover.

    That's our problem then. It's kinda stupid it says they're for 3-6 people if it isn't going to scale them down and you need perfect luck to win. We have ideal set ups and good equipment yet still can't win easily.

    To be fair to Assault though, we've literally given the same one three tries and haven't touched it since. It's not because we aren't impressed with it or because we don't want the items but we have a set party to focus on. I'm sure it'll get better when we pick up two people to make a real Assault set with and start grinding through them all.

    Well the thing is you get more AP for winning with less people, so for some of them if you can win with 3 then it's worth going with 3 for the extra points. If you can't do it with 3, then don't?

    Has anyone attempted an assault mission (tier 1 or 2) with capping the party at the suggested level cap? I wonder if you possibly get more points for having a 50/60 cap etc.

    Use full DoT (Bio2, Rasp, Frost, Drown, Poison2) and the walls start meling like butter.

    After about 30 seconds with those DoT's on a wall it was down to 90%

    Sorry if this has been mentioned before, but bringing a THF for Lebros really helps with the mine drop rates. I went 1/6 twice and then someone came THF and we went 4/4 and finished with a lot of time to spare. I guess I could have gotten lucky but the other THFs I've talked to all say "lol Lebros is easy!"
