Wyrm!

and there speaks someone with actual skills

That lost a ks99.

Is 2/3 on your first ever Wyrm BC's actually that bad?

does losing 99 kindred's seals ever not horribly suck ass?

[Amastacia]

Multiple Chainspell Stuns?

With a good alliance setup, you can take him from 75% to 25% (when he lands) in 60 seconds. Only really need one Chainstun per fight for a safe, clean, quick win.

[nekoshoonen]

and won 2 and worked out how to beat it w/o 2hour zerging.

[Mashu]

3x rdm/drk
2x pld
couple smn
buncha blm

get to 75% with smn and III
he flies
chainspell stuns
knock off 50% in 90 seconds
he lands
gg

firebomb thing should never hit

edit: if you do it right, and perhaps add in a sc, you can have him below 60% before he's fully flying

C/S zerging is retarded when you have to do multiple Wyrm99s in a night and not that many blms available to fully manaburn it >.>;

Tank party that has tanks with fire resist gear coupled with enough firepower to knock it out of the sky is good enough in most cases.

Any beards in the 2 wins? I was thinkin about doing this KS99 for a beard because we cant claim kings;_;.

We went 2/18 ; ; got an lsmate a Black Belt, ultimately... but orz on drop rate >.>

BLM BLM RNG RNG SMN BRD(me)
BLM BLM BLM BLM PLD RDM
PLD PLD NIN RDM WHM BRD

was our setup. Used Arching -> Sidewinder for frag I think?

[Stellar]

Blast Arrow -> Sidewinder...

After doing this BC, I now prefer it to the Behemoth one. Maybe I'm biased from boredom of Chlevnik, but all the runs were really exciting and intense. Drops weren't bad but would have loved to have seen a wyrm beard ;_;

I honestly don't think we will lose again either with that setup.. The first run none of us had any idea what to expect, the next two were really smooth, I think one death the first run and 3 the second run..

Does it count if the seals come from a character you RMTed?

[Ashira]

We singled tanked this KS99... NIN/BRD.. was supposed to be dual tank, kind of.. I was secondary/backup as WHM/NIN... didn't need me. Fire resist gear, keep the rest of the alliance out of the way; BLMs totally unleashed and NIN didn't lose hate. Did 2 runs, my orb and the NIN's... was mostly a test anyway. Drops sucked.

[Seditedi]

1/1
Used BLMs SAM/THFs SAM/RNG (for zerg when it flies) 2 PLD/WAR tank
2 RDM/DRK and then assorted support jobs, WHMs, RDM/WHM and a BRD I think, hella easy.

[Plow]

Of course there's ways to do it without chainspell stun.

Who cares?

If you can go in with a setup that is an outright guaranteed win, why in the sam hell would you choose not to?

I dunno about everyone else here, but I'll hold my seals an extra couple hours rather than throw them into a situation where if a couple stuns get missed they're lost.

who got the BB?

[nekoshoonen]

Some people enjoy a challange and won't cry when they lose 99 pixelated items?

So you do dynamis lord without chainspell stun then? Since otherwise it's just zerg tactics and not a challenge, and nobody cares if they waste a xarc run seeing how you can do it about 20x more often than ks99.

[NynJa]

sure, its 99 pixelated items, who cares...

how about losing those hours you spent obtaining those 99 pixelated items when you could have done something else ?

[nekoshoonen]

Funny most of people's seals come from just exping/farming gil items/skilling up... don't really know anyone who simply spends time "farming seals"

And since you got them while you were doing other stuff you should be willing to throw away a potential 5-20m and a shot at a black belt. K

[Shuemue]

Some people have far too much time on their hands and do exactly that. -.-

And if you can win 100% of the time without zerging it with 2hrs, why bother?

edit: added reply to Plow's question

I do it when I get close, or when I need a couple k for a merit or whatever. Water pots drop a lotta seals, it's a nice place to go solo for stuff like that, plus the whole chance at water thing.

[Awoir]

Like I said before, the guy who lost the first orb also offered the second, he said he was just there for the fun of it, didn't care if we lost as he had 600 seals just sitting in his mog safe (from leveling his BST I assume)
