Why do people make ridiculously useless posts like this -_-

I realise the irony that _this_ is also a useless post, but its covered by the double jeopardy of being ABOUT a useless post :wink:

Kinda replaces SH for soloing MNK, same evasion (or 2 less than +1) but you gain AGI, Att, and SB at the loss of 10 Acc, and if you're soloing something you won't need that 10 acc so much.

[NynJa]

I'd wear it for soloing.

[TsingTao]

So would I. Looks better than a SH too.

Anyone have any info on the Happy Caster ISNM? Even just the mob types would be enough of a head start in picking a decent group of guinea pigs to try this one out.

BC=Happy Caster

very easy drop
we are 3/5 on this cloth drop.

and the BC is very easy too, average 4mins fight

[TsingTao]

Outside of the lack of actual content that's handy information. At least it's a short 4min mystery.

I like apple pie.


Edit: ... and I like page 2 as well.

This BC was so fun xD. Mob is a flan, casts tier IVs and -ga IIIs, plus sleepga II and bindga, with just ridiculous int stat, will do horrible damage if you get hit, and you probably will :s. He's really slow and easy to kite, but the kiting space sucks and that's really no fun, so if you're pro just zerg it. His physical moves are sissy of course, SAMs and MNKs own him hard. He pulled an awesome sleepga -> Fire IV on the MNK on our last run, where all the melees 2 hrd and we stil got server record at 3min 19 seconds.

I normally would at least wait a couple days to whore this BC out further, but we didnt actually get crap to drop D: Mensur Epee (useless-lookin new sword) was the only unique-ish drop, in 5/5 wins we didnt see a single SH killer, although we did score an erase. Can anyone else confirm it drops here? I want to try other ISBCs, but our pt's leader is lusting over the body for his MNK.

[TsingTao]

Thanks for the info. I'll try and get some friends to take a stab at this tonight....sounds fun. :D

[ps2user]

this BC is so easy.
all you need are
a tank, nin is better than pld because the flan has bad acc.
3 people with elemental seal, blm or /blm, setup a ES silence order before entering the BC.

2 other melee DD, any job can do good dmg on this NM.

yesterday i did this BC, pt setup is ninX2 sam, whm/blm, rdm/blm, blm/whm.
we did 5 fights, drops are 3 Arakane Samues, 2 dragon talons, 2 RR3 scroll, 1 quake scroll, and other junks.

Don't need a tank, its not that its acc is bad, its that it rarely ever attacks at all.

Amorphic Spikes does 1000 damage to people without blinks though, one of its TP moves.

Didn't have it filtered but it has one move, Hemoplobe or something that makes its next spell instant cast. It totally blows when it combos that with a Firaga3 or other ga spell.

Tier4 do 1000 damage or so if not blinked.
Bindga, Sleepga2 are also uses.

Boil - lowers magic defense. ERASE THIS ASAP. You take double damage from spells with that one, so anything it hits you with would be death.

Best set up imo would be -

RDM/DRK, WHM/DRK, WHM/BLM, MNK/NIN, WAR/NIN, DRK/??? (its there for its ability to stun a ton, and absorb-tp so it doesnt use Hemoplobe as much... Maybe /SAM with a Stun WS would be good so the WAR can use rampage instead of smash axe)

You need some serious healing for this when it does Sleepga2 or Hemoplobe -> ga3

We were able to win with BLM, WHM/DRK, 2x WAR/NIN, and NIN/WAR though, WHM at 0 MP every time however... it was a lot of luck like that though

Did this 11 times now. 1 of these 5 (Khroma ore, Luminous ore, Behemoth Horn, Behemoth Hide, Dragon Talon) is GARUNTEED. There is also 1 drop slot for a "rare" spell and 1 drop slot for new weapons/armor.

2/11 - dragon talon
5/11 - Behemoth horn
3/11 - Khrmoa ore
1/11 - luminous ore
0/11 - behemoth hide

That could show the rarity order of that specific slot, i guess someone could make a more compiled listing though.

We got 2 Arakan Samue, 1 Rapier thing, 1 Crude Sword for weapons, and other times that slot was just given some crafting material like Red Grass Cloth etc.
