RNGs and SMNs look like best dmg.

[Zanz L. Barre The 3rd]

SAM SA+ Gekko doing 900-1.3k
SA Mercy Stroke did 900 dmg

Leviathan 400-600

Sidewinder 500-600

No HP bar @1hr or so, really lost atm. How were you able to determine it's HP, Sath? (You mentioned it had no HP bar but you could see it's percentage). Have windower on and HP percentage displayed is equal to last target.

Didn't read anything that indicated much towards strategy, if you can provide any insight, that would be great!

You can use several different third party tools like FFXI-App and others to see it. I'm not sure what he used.

Best to just tough it out, he doesn't Regen, only cures himself, so if you know that you're doing steady damage just stick to it until he dies.

titan looks to be doing the same damage range as levi( 400-600), ramuh does about half that. garuda is wildly erratic, and netherblast does under 200.

Using DD's to build TP off mobs in the area then unload on Ixion be any good at all?

[-Ant-]

O, you think damage is calculated different based on %? Or maybe it has modes? Because at the start of the fight RNGs were doing 20-30, 120 slugwinders, and later on were doing around 100 an arrow, and 500+ slugwinders.


edit: yeah depending on the zone tping off mobs looks like a winner.

EDIT: Yeah basically~ /THF build TP, unload.

A little over half an hour. Fun fight.

[Shiriokumo]

time so far on fairy is nearing 3hours or more already guessing more... about 35 tank deaths total...

[HadesChubbs]

Tell us how you really feel

[Vishnevskiy]

This thing was a joke as long as AOE don't hit mages, we had a few mage death when it faced them and did AOE. Tanks were never in danger, was a complete joke lol.

[Belkin]

35 tank deaths? Christ, we had 3 in a two hour fight.

[-Ant-]

lol 35 is highly exaggerated.

[Shiriokumo]

they are just throwing bodies at it, as soon as one dies they tos another one of the 6 plds they have at it so maybe 20+ deaths now.

[Therin]

lol 35 is highly exaggerated.

Who has it claimed?

Also, @ Excellence: Barely over half an hour? Jesus, that's a fast kill. @_@ All RNG damage?

[-Ant-]

we do

edit: actually more people have died not in the shell than the ones in it lol
