Most bitching NMs!! Which one annoy you most?

[Caestus]

he's slam dunked me for over 5500 lol fully buffed RDM, Stoneskin, Phalanx, (Defender) the whole 9 yards lol...

[Huggo]

I had a question about Softstep. Is his ore lob thing earth-based elemental damage? Like, can earth carol and barstone cut its damage down?

[Max™]

*points at the little wall behind the fort in rolanberry*

That's how you cut down Softstep's WS damage... when he comes in and people are fighting him at the fort, you stand by that wall.



Really though, with him being fed TP, and Staggershells tossing em out pincer style, I'd say just kite his ass if you can Grav him.

If I were to pick one NM out of all of them, I'd probably have to go with Kazan if soloing. That aoe shit he does knocks off all my shadows and because I'm a taru, I usually drop dead. lol If not soloing, probably Warmachine... only because I don't solo in Jugner.

I usually try to steer clear of Jugner just because it's always packed with people unless I'm in a party with some linkshell members. Most of my time I'm soloing in the Windy (Sauromugue, Fort Karugo-Narugo, and Meriphataud) areas because it's not so crowded.

Only other thing that really bothers me... NPCs. Yes, they're there to help you defend the fortifications and what not and in most cases, work very well if no one else in area. But when you by chance get a link and you've slept the add, those sob's are right there to wake them up so they slaughter you. /assist plz!

AoE spammed at point blank is nature's way of telling you to kite that chicken or leave him alone. He's kinda silly when he goes into Howl/Parry spam as you fry him from range, or whiffs a Sweep/kung-fu named version of Sweep.

"Wanna piss off the grrrrandstanding guy over there that thinks he's so hot?"

"Of courrrse." *twang*

Oh I don't actually go up and fight him on RDM because of that aoe crap. I mostly debuff and enfeeble him from a distance while trying to keep up stoneskin. This is one NM that doesn't allow me get close. Even if I'm at 20, he still wipes me out.

[Damane]

I avoid Rojgnoj because of his 2k CRITICAL HITS!

*still can't find his spleen*

I have no problem as pld/rdm with the warmarchine, but deathlord rojgnoj definitly blows me out of the water with full könig, d.ring and phalanx on 1.5k hits ftw that one shot you, I hate him with passion

as NIN or /NIN tough he is easy shit because his attack speed is sooooooo slow. like if he had massacre elegy on or so, as a meat shield he is no fun

[Kimiko]

Shadowhand by far is one of the most annoying of the bunch that I've encountered. Fomor BLM + RDM that has a nasty habit of throwing down sleepga II followed bout a 1.5-2k Blizzaga III. Moves at near flee speed, and has a nasty earth crusher for 6-700 damage if you get him into melee.

Also, that one Yagudo NM (can't remember the name) that has added effect: doom on his melee attacks.

[LD]

Pretty sure Shadowhand is a chick.

[Max™]

Shadowhand is an elvaan female.

Also, I fucking love the Endoom yagudo.

Watching a bunch of people melee him down, then one by one drop dead is very humorous, better is when someone runs, he chases, and then people die while following, and you get a trail of corpses.

Deathlord Rojnoj And Conqurer (Sp?) and One-Eyed get my vote.
Warmachine is fine, i just dont go near the damm thing.
Apart from 1 idiot rdm on our server who decided he wanted to solo warmachine up on the hill of weakened people.
Killed about 20 of us, the rdm then done /laugh and ran off and went after a different mob -.-

[Ryousuke]

Staggershell gets my vote.
Deathga. And my shadowbind failed for the first time, on him.

/cry...

[Fadian]

Jagidbod's Warmachine. Hate. This. NM.

1. Job change > Blue mage
2. Activate CA
3. Get closer > Frenetic Rip and be an hero
4. wait for raise
5. go to 2

LOL

I remember when campaign first came out. We all saw the Warmachine and thought it would be cool to kill it. Well needless to say, the 50+ people thought twice before going after him again!!!!

Chainspell Raise {Do You Need It?}

[Ashtray]

After Update - Rockchopper, NM Campaign - Pashow


Breakga with with pets out that can do 800+ breath moves = GG

[a351must2]

yeah, I noticed I used to be able to pull and hold one of Rockchopper's pets until he was dead...tried once after the update and died to it pretty damn fast.

[Octavious]

I don't mind Softstep...what I mind is people who refuse to help out on the NM thinking they'll die. The only reason Softstep takes the casulties he does is people hesitate and help in waves. 3 people every 5minutes won't beat it, lol.

I've tanked him pretty well on RDM/BLU or RDM/NIN, if you stack on some Phys.Dmg.Reduction you can beast the Ore Lobs and reduce them to ~140-160 which isn't bad. I usually cure III or IV after it. The issue comes with actually killing him fast enough >_> lol. I can last....oh 5-10minutes solo on it, but usually people run away and don't bother to help.

Most bitchy NM i can't tank would be J.Warmachine...aoe bombs ftl...;;
