Tier10 Assault

[Lyramion]

Cleared Cerb one just now on PLD SAM DRG RDM BLM WHM

Things to note:

- Started using GoH at 44% already
- Howl first time at around 50% which popepd 8 Fire Elementals that we were unable to sleep and almost made us whipe. They depopped after around 3 minutes.
- Howl again around 20% which gave him only better ATK and DEF - we almost creamed our pants to in fear of more elementals


??? box got Troll Pauldron

[Grif]

lol Elemetals was a little bit before and cant be slept at all. Seem like they depopped when he howled again.

[Wizerd]

Hydra is very very easy, BRD WHM and any good damage melee with /NIN should be able to trio it without trouble... or BRD RDM of course. Doesn't matter. With 5 (BRD WHM WAR WAR MNK) we downed it in 7 minutes. Around 50% it start thrashing about, and at 4% also. Basically it turns a bunch then only attacks you with his tail, so until he finishes thrashing about (about 20-40sec?), it's a good idea to turn away, unless you wanna get flailed. Easy fight either way.

[TT]

need to get some drops going on the FL rank assaults, maybe the new set gears appraise from them cause i dont see where else they could come from.

[divisortheory]

got a box from dracula just now, had a soulflayer staff in it.

Moblin in Bellepheron's Bliss uses goblin dice for his TP move.

Ours rolled an 11, which caused Khimaria 14X to Dreadstorm us.

Moblin takes damage well and doesn't hit particularly hard. Khimaira has somewhat higher defense, although still not bad, but was hitting our ninja tank for 300+ a hit. Same kind of damage on me, with both the Dreadstorms he ended up using doing ~550.

Suffice to say that nin sam brd rdm was not enough to win that one without and real knowledge of what we were up against.

[Ryko]

Khim down with 6 people, same 2250/2475 as always.

For the record, you can stop its weapon skills if you stun the goblin dice tp move, killing the moblin it is what makes khim unstunnable. It didnt even try fulm on us though.

[Wizerd]

Khim was easy. Didn't try Fulmination on us and it only hit me for 250 on MNK, I tanked most of the fight while our PLD tanked the rest (30-40% of it?). Our WAR had died early cuz no shadows up and Tourbillion or something. He was unweak around 30% and helped finish it off nicely with a 1046 Raging Rush, no MS lol.

We killed the Goblin early but we didn't even bring Stun so np.

[Lyramion]

Killed Hydra easy on sam drg war pld whm rdm. Fight way super easy till it started getting a hyper towards the last 20%. Tried to turn sideways once only.

??? boots > Ash Clogs

[Wizerd]

Cerberus wasn't very cool. It sounded like the Elementals spawned near him so we were gonna do Diaga -> Kite strategy until they depopped. They ended up spawning over the whole area pretty much, so no such strat would have worked. Wiped.

Cerberus became a total mess the moment the elementals spawned all over the place. I was thinking about using a BLM with the help of other mage gather the elementals and GA 3 them, hoping they have low HP. But noticing you had a BLM in your party, what was the strategy you used for the elementals? So we can go with a more solid strategy for tomorrow.

@3/5 FL to finish all assaults ; ;

Edit: Our setup was "PLD/NIN, WAR, MNK, RDM, BRD"

Yeah Cerb is very ugly - we had BLM and RDM gaiter some elemetals around till they died. Firega 3 hit the front liners. We already declared it as FAIL till the elementals all of a sudden despawned. We needed the next 10 minutes just to recover from that since the GoH at 44% got my WHM by surprise and I died without reraise.

[blackomega]

just did cerb got ??? shield and it turned into this

Funny Pieces they are indeed

[Wizerd]

Bowman's are definitely Hydra. We got a ??? Footwear from it, and there's only ever 2 ??? types plus box in each Assault right?

[BRP]

Lyramion

If you think myth will have anything do with it, Caberallo will come from the Drevegeretcwhatever one.

He only has that strange name in Einherjar - The Assault Version is called "King Goldemar"

[Ruin]

Intersesting. Dont know what I think about this Vampire drain/aspir gear set

While on drop topic: +5stat rings, what assaults confirmed to drop them?

[Lyramion]

No Assault drops - the new rings are crafted.


Harmonius Ring - HQ of Crimson Ring
[Finger] All Races
HP+20 STR+5 Fire+10
LV 72 All Jobs


Celestial Ring - HQ of Star Ring
[Finger] All Races
MP+20 MND+5 Water+10 MP recovered while healing +1
LV 72 All Jobs


Star/Celestial Rings look nice for the all new 1HMP in the ring slot. But they need a Star Sapphire to be crafted which appraises from Ashu Talif. Goes for around 500k to 2mil accross the servers.

[Sagacious Sundi]

Dvergr is his mob type. There is actuaclly not a single mob named Dvergr, interestingly. (A wing 3 boss is named Motsognir, who is the king of the dvergar/Norse dwarves IIRC.)

Maybe each set will have a piece in one Assault, and the other drops in another Assault? Sorry if I missed something that contradicts this. Although guess it wouldn't make sense for some of them. (The Vampiric stuff, in particular.)

Also, does Orochi or the King have any "helpers" or whatever? Dracula has the clones, Shuck has the eles, and 14X has Megomak.
