Fenrir Solo'd by a RDM - video link

[yayaok]

FFXI debuted in Japan on the Sony PlayStation 2 on May 16, 2002 and was released for Microsoft Windows-based personal computers on November 5 of the same year. It was then localized and released for the North American market on October 28, 2003.

[Rocl]

We all know Japan is just a myth anyways.

Gonna explain since you people dont seem to understand:
You know how the Juggernaut goes: I'm the juggernaut, bitch ?
and Batman goes: I'm the goddamn Batman

Well I'm the holy jesus christ it's Rocl.
If you take me seriously, you are silly.

I stopped caring about who used what plugin when PS2 users started limiting my game

OH BURN

You mean since forever? Since FFXI came out on PS2 before it came out on PC.

Please god tell me youre being sarcastic

As much as it hurts to know yes you are playing a PS2 game that was later released on the PC

Yes, you are playing a game that was released in Japan first and made by a Japanese company also. On top of this I live in Japan and have humored you buy adding your requested picture of the globe with Japan circled.

You should be the captain of something.

[Ksandra]

You should be the captain of something.

He's the captian of "omfg get on vent so we can lvl brd and drg bitch!"


Let's hope he receives his title before I leave for shopping.

He also never sleeps so don't be surprised when he takes you seriously.

[Epical]

lolpunhere, but I'm going to guess being obvious?

We're currently investigating the issue.

Didnt realize Fenrir was so easily bound, and seemed to build only a tiny bit of resistance as it went on, only lasting for about 10 seconds - but landed every time.

If bind lands that easily, this fight can be ridiculously easy for any self respecting solo'ing RDM. He allowed Fenrir to get too close for too long on many instances.

[Rosencrantz]

He's never too close once he 2h'd. What would you fear when you can just recast Utsu for 6 shadows.
Cool vid and yeah it seems easy but don't forget a unlucky 2h can pretty much kill you, and a bad nuking timing + a poor mp pool wont do the job.
This guy got 950+ mp's on /NIN, and he wasnt even wearing any Zenith Piece at start. That's pretty high.

Edit: Might have seen Z. Mitts, didnt bother watching again and editing before some asshole correct me.

[Nikopiko]

just went in on my first try

i have 338 enfeebling.

HQ every staff

Bind only stuck once during the fight.


Second try.

Same results, (plenty mind gear) Bind stuck 4 times total.


I eventually killed him 16min 22 seconds, 30 min time limit. Difficult solo. be prepared to be resisted, it seems to me his was complete luck, or my lack there of.

I still used same strat, nuke/bind/gravity/etc. Bad luck on my part, his dispel got off once at beginning and took me quite a while to rebuild buffs again as running around kiting.


(*ninja edit*) As well as one more observation, he never revealed his gear. From the outside i never saw anything that looked like HQ in terms of equipment. I have duelist chap/enfeebling merits (2 away from cap) and mass's of enfeebling gear. Went on earthsday same as him, and waxing crescent 38% (forget waxing or waning) so moon phase was almost nuetral. I honestly don't see how (other than luck) his binds could stick flawlessly every time.

When i with superior gear (as far as enfeebling is concerned) could not stick but perhaps 2-3 binds the entire fight.

[quote=Ksandra]

Yeah i dont know what this dude is talking about, so many plugins = distance?

Jealously is an ugly color. Grats on the solo, though it didnt look too complicated :D

Yeah.. it's not like he was POSing around the arena.

qft.

Used that tp party thing, distance plugin which is a huge HUGE advantage. Windower macro program I think was in there too. And god only knows what else considering those.


You can call it jealousy if you want. I call it not giving hats off to cheaters. :D

because tparty matters when soloing

You could easily do this without distance..........its not like distance is even that big a advantage over hardcore soloers.

My issues is things like distance plugins makes people lazy. It helps make it not really a challenge when the programs are doing things for you. And therefore isn't impressive, at least to me.

My mention of tparty was only to point out that he uses more than just one plugin, which suggests to me he might be using other things not readily seen on the screen.

Of course, it's all opinion, the OP wanted to know what rdms thought of the vid. My opinion is it's not impressive considering he had outside programs helping him.[/quote:217b2]

Imo it isn't exactly helping. Helping would be like boosting his enfeebling magic, or casting spells for him. Knowing how far a mob is from you. Takes seconds to do, if that. Just need decent depht<sp?> perception and a working knowledge of the game. Just my opinion though.

Bind is INT, but you knew that, right?

[Nikopiko]

as far as other enfeebles go, is why i put that there.

I have 80+40 INT....that isnt a problem... lol. i find it needless to include something im already gifted in

*edit* anyways, ill try again tomorrow, probably bad luck, had a friend on carbuncle try it, and he came up with about the same results as i, except he landed it roughly 8 times. (little more, but than again he can use hits master caster bracelets since hes from sandy. lol and i cannot being from windurst in my area) hopefully i get better results, maybe just bad luck is what most told me

[darkshines]

I can only assume you had really crappy luck, because when I did this I didn't get a single bind resist with 340 skill/aquilo's.

You're a RDM and you're still dismayed that enfeebling is pretty fucking random to begin with, especially on higher endgame mobs. You should have learned that by now. =/

And as far as Ksandra...wow, do you play on PS2 or something? As far as Im concerned, things like TP, mob HP% are all things that should have been implemented into the game a LONG time ago. Just because SE came into the game with a horrible interface, does not mean its cheating if players build upon that interface and make it better and more intuitive. Hell all the info windower takes is already technically known by the player's PC anyway, so I dont see how you can call that a cheat.

Ninja Edit: Sorry...tired.
