Ix'MNK Pull

[Clynt]

Just a quick question about pulling Ix'MNK to the Ebon Panel room solo, how easy is it for him to lose hate when you're training him back?

[Fistandantilus]

Lost count on how many times I've pulled it but I have never lost hate during the pull. Usually pop it cast Bio 2 and start running, if it gets more than like 25' away I'll sometimes drop poison on it or something to be safe, but even that is probably unneeded. So long as you don't flee or anything I don't think it is really possible to lose hate.

[Clynt]

Thanks

Please be careful if you have any enhanced movement speed, as you can lose him quite easily if you just cast bio and run to camp. Use /ta <bt> as you run to camp and the directional arrows to look to the sides when you turn corners and guage how far he is away by his marker. Without movement speed I don't see it happening, but I've solod him a number of times on RDM with wlegs and you can lose hate very easily if you're not conscious of his distance.

Good luck with your pull!

Did this for the first time the other day and lost him very easily, ended up with one Aern and one Grhah following me only... Didn't get back to him in time and he depop. VERY easy to lose with WLegs, second time I just waited for him when I got a bit ahead, was pretty easy to lose the other adds though by kiting around the room.

Never lost it in 20+ pulls without run fast gears. I make it alive in mithra tower almost all the time (bind/sleepga fucked me up), but it's almost impossible to do it in elvaan tower unless you get lucky with pot otw.

Pretty sure you can lose hate if you have run fast gears tho

Been a while since I've been in Hu'xzoi, either I've just had a memory lapse or there are no pots on the pull route lol.
Pretty sure the only mobs on the way from ??? to ebon panel room are like 3-4 Ghrah and the Aern links of course, correct me if I am wrong please.

You are correct. Kaylia must be thinking bout DRK or something, no pots otw to Elvaan since that's the route I did the other day when I posted.

i duo ix'mnk as pld and rdm (me being rdm.) Every pull ive used powder boots. popped and flee'ed to hallway before ebon room and wait. I never tag it w/ anything and ive never lost it. I just wait for it and all the links to get to me and pld vokes Ix and takes it to the ebon room then i just reraise and go in and bio and nuke while he kites it. Never had an issue at all but its been month since last attempt. Did something change recently?

[Spekkio]

i've been meaning to pound this sucker out for quite some time myself and i'm also on kujata. if you like, we could try it a couple of times together, one training, the other tailing in case the popper loses hate.

[yrpaine]

You can lose hate if you get too far away with flee or movement speed. You can do this intentionally too, to lose agro. I generally pop it on thf and kill with dual box to kill so i get th4(it has helped a lot). If you get someone with flee and no movement speed to pop for you and use flee in the tunnel before the ebon pannel room, (about 1/4 of the full hallways distance once you enter the hallway) ix'mnk and all the aern adds should lose hate as you enter ebon room. Takes some practice.

Ah, I bought 7 HQ Aern organs from someone's bazaar but I already popped 5 of them solo;; 0/5 on any drop lol.

[Crizto]

Would've been smarter to get someone to help you and do a 3 organ pop.

Adding extra hq aern organs only increase deed rate, not vice. Stick to single organ and bring a thf if you can, got 3/15 with th4 with a trio static i did, all single organ pops.

i got about 6 organs, i have a friend who has about as many, and as blm, we can easily farm up a truckload more. i'm confident triggers wouldn't be the issue on this NM. hit me up later if you want to try to grind a few out.

There is 2 pots in Elvaan tower when you are zoning all the way to elevator. >_> One in L8 bottom room, and one right in front of the elevator.

In mithra tower, there is one on left side of the area that will aggro it at time when I do additional lap around the place to zone alive (when the ghrah close to zone aggro with bind or something or when aern are too close).

[Judai]

oh, you can't zone though because you would have to do the escort to get back through the doors, noob!

unless yo are talking bout small man and someone lets you back through but he is talking about solo!

[Seditedi]

I was talking about direct en route from the ??? to the Ebon Panel room. I knew there were some on the way to the elevator.

[Kerberoz]

on the escort route you can just sleep everything and keep running; it should deaggro by the time you get to the ???

... or just go backwards and not worry about escort at all

I never lost aggro on the way to elevator, but I dont have speed+ gears. Either way, need to be prudent with that one to not lose it behind the first gate where no one can get it (it's never a bad idea to bring a 2nd person for safety).

Last time I did the pull that way, I avoided first pot, slept second and zoned alive. Depending how long you mess with both gate and pots, you should have enough time to sleep them and zone alive.
