    Jailer of Faith

    Been wanting this item a long time for my mnk and my ls has stopped doing sea after only trying it for a bit (I guess they didn't like it or somethin).

    Out of the people who are willing to help me, not enough to take it down.

    So here is my plan. Going to pretty much pay ppl to help me (Selling toreador's ring and splitting that gil between helpers IF torque drops) What jobs do you recommend for a smooth victory + strat.

    I'm not looking to duo it. I'm looking to be able to do it safely and securely.

    Ya, but you should know that the majority of threads are misleading and it shows the safest way in the thread (bring 4x blm/nin and a RDM for grav+fresh, a WHM for stona)

    Re: Jailer of Faith

    If for some reason I'm not able to come up with a bunch of blms, what are other strats that seem to do well vs faith. Atm I have me as mnk, a bud who can come whm rdm brd, one that can cone nin or sam, and nother rdm or brd or pld. Still looking for more and trying to mold it into something that will work.

    Edit: Off the top of my head may end up with 2-3 blms

    think about it.. if this is safe and easy.. take from this and add w/e else you have to bring.

    More people only makes it harder and messier though tbh. Very few PLDs seem to be able to hold hate off BLMs while kiting it but you can try to get a NIN or PLD(/nin recommended cause of Q2) to tank it. SMNs do ok dmg to it. Melee are worthless half the time cause it runs so fast and the other times they pull hate and get owned and you waste MP raising them. If you want it small man and easy, BLMs are the only way. If you want to throw people at it, take w/e. It's an easy NM if done right.

    Beat it with bst mnk rdm rdm back in the day...so it's doable without blms. But blms really are a no-brainer here.

    Ranger is good too.

    Re: Jailer of Faith

    He can be zerged with around 12 or so people and 4-5 strong melee, that's generally how we have been killing it. It's rather curing intensive, though. If you are stuck with more like 6-8 people, than the only clean, smooth way is a couple of blm/nin and a rdm. Melee who do not have strong ranged attacks are just going to get in the way, and a tank's pretty unnecessary.

    Well killed 3 so far, no drops. Merc group will prolly be upset if it doesn't drop since we've been here a long time and I'm only paying if torque drops lol.

    grats on drop.

    last time I went out with hopes of seeing Faith drop, we went 8 months inbetween seeing a single torque.

    Re: Jailer of Faith

    Have any PLDs tried using an Earth Resist setup on Faith?

    I know this sounds stupid but I was wondering if it would easier for a PLD to tank and not lose hate lets say if he went /war, /rdm, /drk and had a solid Earth Resist setup.
