    ... What rage? Do you mean where it starts wigging out with attacks at under 10%? The only thing I read of that was some group that had fought jorm and wiped to it under 25% for some reason had it in roar mode the entire time they tried to fight it again.

    Tiamat gets significantly harder (and hits a shitload harder) the longer you fight her. If you wipe at under 10%, usually her wings stay up meaning she's still pissed off, and remains hitting hard.

    I think our main pld said something like at start of fight htis for around 200 a hit, towards end hits around 400? (not exactly sure on numbers, but all I know it it hits harder the longer you fight it)

    eventually she calms down, but it takes a couple hours.

    I think its how at around 30% till death after every landing she will MS, w/o fail. Perhaps if she has no aggro for a decent amount of time after reaching <30% she might reset. I've never seen this situation happen, so it's only speculation on my part.

    Think so. We wiped to Tiamat at 1% with a skeleton crew late at night. Let it regen to 100% then tried again and it was used Mighty Stikes off the pull and was otherwise a pain in the ass. Eventually did drop Gaiters though /hurray.

    Its like that on Sylph more or less as well; but it was at like 3 AM. If Tiamat pops from like 3/4 AM to Noon, chances are good it will stay up until people start logging in in the early afternoon (during the week, on w/e it's a footrace pretty much whenever it pops). We've had unusually good luck with Gaiters, like 3/8 or so.

    Definately stays in "latent" mode for quite a while. We've had to deal with more than one Tiamat that was hitting PLD's for 700+ crits from 100% health after another LS had wiped earlier.

    I don't think "Raged" mode is the proper word. It doesn't "rage" like the Kings do, Tiamat and the other 2 Wyrm's just get angry at 10%.

    Wings up for a Wyrm = angry mode....Ive fought Hydra and other shit in angry mode too its kind of annoying
    I don't remember Tia hitting harder at 100% in angry mode..but it used Mighty Strikes every land, and TPed faster..

    AFAIK Tiamats attack cap goes up at 75%, 50% and 25% assuming it is a fresh Tiamat just popped...

    Never seen a Jorm with Triple Roar at 100% O.o unless it never deaggroed?

    Cerb in angry mode has a ridiculous phalanx....which he normally gets at like 10% I think?

    I've seen both Jorm and Tiamat stay in <25% mode after regen to 100%, and it seems to be indefinate.

    I haven't seen anyone wipe on Tiamat lately (sadly) and nobody really kills Jorm so... I have no clue if they have updated this.

    happened the other day on bahamut, when siste wiped @ 7 percent. FI ( an ls that should totally have this) takes the hand out and wipes due to this ragey type mode tia was in.

    stayed this way, eventually was called for help on by an unknown party(gilsellers maybe?). it did regen but not to 100 percent. im not sure what the fight was like after it went back yellow and reclaimed. after an hour and a half of watchin this shit i had to just go lay down and watch tv[/code]

    Neat tip, if you let Hydra regen out of "angry mode" enough times, eventually it just gives up and lets you kill it.

    Not that there's any reason to do that...just an interesting little tidbit.

    One Timmy was being fought for like 8 hours by a server team up. They had some bad luck with 2 call for helps and a flail. My LS claimed with 12 people and fought it with out issues, no raged mode nothing then a normal Timmy. o_O

    So I don't believe he has a "angry" mode or anything once it regens to 100% D:.

    Wings stay up if it dropped below 10% (20?) then the group wiped and it regened even to 100%. Also uses Mighty Strikes immediately at 100% which in my experience isn't normal.
