    Re: How hard will U/O be with this setup

    If you're talking about ultima/omega..

    U - BLM can only stand on side and stun Dissipation since that is your source of a main stunner if the BLU does not go off. You're going with under the bare minimum, so unless everyone is uber on the gear + communication/fast reading/response skills, I would not attempt wasting chips for this. I would not go with less than 10 at best. That setup looks like it has no way of recovering from Citadel Buster. Once PLD goes down you are toast.
    O - Same as above, but most blm if not all BLM's cannot oneshot pods which can hurt mage pretty badly if there is no player on them.

    I'd be willing to bet that he's talking about the CoP mission...

    lol...

    Anyhow, it's been years now but we did it PLD MNK RNG BLM RDM WHM. PLD had a rough time of it but we did the "load up on hi pots and spam them" thing for him, plus we farmed up 2 CCBs. Took a few attempts too but when we won it was awesome. Sorry, reminiscing. Anyhow your setup is pretty similar, so should be doable. Just make sure the WHM knows when to erase and all that crap.

    It's hard to give advice on what needs to be changed, when we don't know what changes can be made. >_> Either way, it looks like a decent setup, just come prepared with plenty of meds, a CCB pump each, and make sure everybody knows what they're doing and you shouldn't have much trouble.

    Re: How hard will U/O be with this setup

    I think no Bard will make it *very* rough. Elegy is a big help for a NIN, and I think practically a must for a PLD. Buggers can hit pretty blasted hard. If you can get a Bard in, you should be okay.

    I've won with a PLD tank (though I backed up as NIN), but it is doable.

    if you can try dropping the blu in favor of a brd (i didn't use blu when i went through u/o so idk if they're any good)

    pld works fine but its much easier with a nin, its doable but you need a lot more preparation (i.e. hi-pots, ccb, etc..), but on the bright side your backline / dds looks fine

    Have your nin spam Ni nukes, and use blind pots (hi2u bat earrings). You don't want to melee omega anyhow w/ his stupid counter rate. Their accu is so bad w/ a half decent eva setup that you can ni tank them even w/ chemical bombs.

    Now to the OP, you might have some problems w/ the mamets but the rest should be ok with a setup like that. Just make sure to get ion flux off the pld quickly and have him bring meds. BLU & SAM should be able to solo a mamet rdm can kite one, pld can hold the others infront of him w/ his shield procing. Just make sure to avoid fighting omega from behind, stick to his sides. BLU debuffs are pretty nice for this aswell along w/ self skillchain for bursting his own damage and the blms.

    Did mine with PLD THF RNG RNG RDM WHM.

    Bring like 40 hi-potions with you and CCBs for zerging the last bit of health off.

    Sadly, I'm not joking, after the third time I decided to just screw it (our jobs weren't flexible in the least) and level alchemy to 60 and get as many hi potions as I needed.

    Re: How hard will U/O be with this setup

    can one of your member can use rng main? In the old time before the cop nerfed, our setup are something like nin brd rng rng whm rdm(or blm), and rng just spam stun bullet in the order of stun > silver > stun > silver > repeat...

    well, you can use the wipe and recover zerg too if anything happen. Since they won't regen their hps, and just besure die at the place won't aggro after raised.

    Not sure how well that would work, I remember a patch a while back where they removed the ability to chainstun with added effects.

    Re: How hard will U/O be with this setup

    yea, you can't stun lock any mobs, but after about 1-2sec the stun wear off, you able to stun it again. That's the reason we using stun bullet > silver bullet > repeat shooting order. Which I tested myself in altepa to make sure this method work before we went into the fight >.>

    ...How long does stun bullet's stun last exactly? With gun delay that has to be a lot.

    Re: How hard will U/O be with this setup

    hm.... can't recall since it was like 3 years or more ago, but it should about same duration as the stun magic. But this just one of the strategy if you are getting hard time to beat it. Well, my dynamis ls mate able to defeat the bc after using this kind of stuff, which they has been wipe for the bc for 2-3times.
