Is there a way to solo it that doesnt take a veritable assload of time? I know duo/trio allows for nuking but I assume kiting solo is just another DOT thing.

Because he said "you wipe to something that people have soloed", not "you wipe to something I can/have solo(ed)".Originally Posted by Khamsin
You can gauge his experience on the subject by the way he talks about it.
what doesn't apply about making fun of a linkshell for wiping to something with 20 people that can be soloed? it's exactly what it is, making fun of a ls for wiping to something that can be soloed.Originally Posted by Jeryhn
what does me not soloing it have anything to do with the fact that it can be soloed?
Because it's a different way of fighting the mob entirely, idiot.Originally Posted by Digitalchaos
The concept of applied invulnerability seems to have gone over their heads more than once in this topic jeryhn, dunno why youre bothering.
I thought they wiped to Ix'MNK which is SIGNIFICANTLY easier to solo. (Can Ix'DRK be solo'd since it pops with helpers?) Either way... lolOminous.
Not really, because the chance he has to RR seems to be linked to the number of Qn's you kill, so even after you've separated him from them and even though he dies much faster and easier than MNK or DRG, you still will probably fight him 7-10 times before it's over unless you're particularly lucky.Originally Posted by Ryko
wow holy shit so my posts arent invisible.
Thanks suiram, was wondering. I actually completely forgot about the RR thing, making it even more troublesome >_>
no shit they would be fighting it differently. don't make it any less sad.Originally Posted by Jeryhn
Its because I'm at work and Cerberus drama is currently boring and limited to KI where people try to turn themselves into memes with purple-colored text of faggotry.Originally Posted by Ryko
Ix'DRK can be soloed, if you can pull it far enough away from the Qn'Aerns so they don't link to Ix, caused them to go to their home point where they'll depop after a period of time.
With no Qn's up, Ix can be DoT'd to death.
I did give you the grounds that wiping to Ix with 20 is pretty weak. Don't take a mile from the inch I have given you deeming yourself correct on the entireity of your post, because you're not.Originally Posted by Digitalchaos
The problem is that they don't depop, they hang out there indefinitely until Ix'aern dies. But I agree it can be soloed with a lot of time and patience, easier than the other Ix's since it stops to cast every 20 seconds which allows a BLM or a RDM to nuke/drain it, and it has MP to aspir.Originally Posted by Jeryhn
So let me get this right Volken. You are in a rival LS to Apathy and dislike Apathy wholeheartedly. You also chimed in for the first time on page 12 just to misspell the word GRAMMAR while trying to attack me about mine. Then you followed that up by "you're a retard" (failsafe argument).Originally Posted by Volken
It's also real difficult to steal someone's AV when we're the only LS on the server capable of testing the mob for hours. Anyone else would wipe terribly and quickly and you know it. We lived through a few meteors and held our ground for a while.
And about Ix'drk... I'll just leave that alone for obvious reasons.
I was pretty sure there was a method for soloing Ix'DRK by depopping the Qn's posted on the RDM forum on KI. Gimme a few minutes to try and find it.Originally Posted by Suiram
Its not really a problem at all if you take Ix to the circular room.Originally Posted by Suiram
They never depop till Ix is dead and no reraise. But if you pull Ix to the circular room cleanly, either by dying and reraising or using the elevator the Qn go back to the room you poped them in and you never have to deal with them.I was pretty sure there was a method for soloing Ix'DRK by depopping the Qn's posted on the RDM forum on KI.

Well I don't know what was posted on KI, but I have personally popped it at 3am, seperated it from the Qn's and held it while a handful of people from my LS came down to help kill, had it Reraise about 4 times, went to check at the pop spot and saw the Qn'aerns were just chilling there at least 90 min later. We sniped them and then returned and killed it after one more RR.
I've also duoed it by seperating it from the Qn's and leaving them up the whole time, but it took 8 reraises to die lol
Edit:
By 'problem', I didn't mean difficulty in killing Ix'aern, I meant the Qn's stay up so it reraises a ton and the whole endeavor takes forever.Originally Posted by Skittles
Yeah, apparently you're right. The strat on KI doesn't call for killing the Qn's, only separating them. It'd be an easy solo, but certainly would take forever and a day.
I also just remembered, Ix'DRK is popped using "sheer animosity". It could potentially take forever to pop it as well without any help. And the ??? moves around, hard for one person to keep track of.
Better off just bringing people with you, lol.
Unless your whole LS wipes to it :/ Then you're better off soloBetter off just bringing people with you, lol.
I'm sorry if this argument has slipped over my head, but why would you need to solo Ix'DRK in the first place, Sea is so easy to get to fast for almost any job, when he would pop for me, we'd have like 10 people there in 5 min.
I realise part of the argument is making fun of them for wiping with 20 people or whatever but who cares one time the wrong person got owned by Ix'MNK and we had to go into recovery mode, lolIx'MNK I know but shit happens.
2nd half of this thread about Ix'drk and mnk and AV can be summed up by *drum roll*
lolsea.
