New ToAU NMs (Now with 100% more Pandemonium!) pg77

[Dakana]

We are trying to form a strategy around securely taking out the gears.

The damage taken in chat log I saw in 2nd picture led me to believe they don't hit too terribly hard, so I'm wondering if a PLD with Sentinel and other buffs up could tank a gear while the rest of your melee and BLMs rape it with the other 7? having hate on the PLD... I don't imagine it woudl take long to knock one down with those numbers.

Has it been proven that they don't just repop moments later (akin to AV's wyvern's)?

This is the first Pandemonium pop. They have not killed one of the gears.

How the hell is anyone supposed to know if they repop or not?

PS: There are 30 Lamps in the DATs, etc

LOL let's hope they never pop all at one

ya i agree i was just saying how we all love his attitude hasn't changed in years

Edit: it was a joke man calm down

ONE LAMP DOWN!

ONE LAMP DOWN!

WOOT!


How did you do that one?

[tsola]

We killed a gear! But almost everyone died ; ;. They spam Rail cannon/gravity like crazy.

[Ramsey]

Anything happen to PW's health?

[lotmorning]

hmmm if there are 30 lamps I wonder if Pandy has 3 forms. 10 Lamps per form maybe?

Demon Type = 10 lamps
Chariot Type = 10 gear lamps
Form 3 = Other 10 lamps

I wish you the best of luck on killing it, ill read it tomorrow, need some sleep now. Again , GL!!!

Interesting theory, except that they said that there was 8 lamps.

Read the thread? only two Pande versions in .dats, been said like 5x only though. More likely that it switches to chariot every certain percent and pops lamps again.

WOOT!


How did you do that one?

Kiting PW +lamps, and zerging 1 lamp pulled off. problem is, it doesn't STAY pulled off, and periodically returns to the kiter. BLM and RNG good.

[lotmorning]

Thats what I thought someone said at first too, but then 2 posts after that they were saying 10. So is it 8 lamps or 10?

Edit: 2 pandy in dats ya but maybe that means it can spawn 2 certain series. Like Pandy 1 is golmer > chariot > somthing else where as pandy 2 can be golmer > somthing > somthing

Rail Cannon is whats f*cking us up

[Kaeko]

Don't know if you guys are F5ing to get ideas on what to do but...

Can try supertanking?

PLD/WAR can cap 999 defense with shield blocks and decent damage down %. You can get the damage to hopefully 100 a shot this way. Add Minnes, Phalanx2, maybe shining Ruby, a SCH with Stoneskinga etc. You can probably hold 10 gears that way.

Since Gears aggro, just have the PLD run in, get into a corner then face the gears to proc shield blocks. Can spam cures or any other buff on the PLD as long as the PLD aggroed or linked and didnt perform an action. If the Gears have party hate, you'd have to forgo the buffs and only use cures from outside PT and have the PLD solo party.

it's 8. I had said 10 initially, off just what it appeared, but was only a guess.

7 remaining at this time.

{position}?

And stun doesn't work I'm guessing?

[tsola]

The gears are weird. They aggro sometimes, and sometimes don't.

[shieldsofwindurst]

Can you confirm or deny that killing that 1 lamp took HP off the warden? I'm guessing it didn't but worth making sure.
