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

[Klein]

Fun fact for Nuhn, SMNs ftmfw. They'll pull agro A TON at lower % and tank the mob for a long time, and since Deathgnash really does nothing to them since they can be instantly resummed, They provide alot of DPS and damage mitigation. Nukes work well, too. My puppet was getting consistent 1200+ Blizz IV, 1000 Aero IV. Ate a couple Deathgnashes cause of it. BLMs averaged around 1k with each Tier IV

There is a zone to mire to the NW of its pop spot past two imps, theres a long winding tunnel to the zone w/ no mobs. You could prolly do it Zip style, rdm/nin and blms zone nuke. Solo might be really rough, cos his silence/plague move slowly eats away at your mp especially if you don't have a viruna around. I brought 2 and half stacks of echos, and i feel it wasnt enough lol.

Nukes were solid, blizz3 for 700ish, blizz4 for 1k from my NQ blm.
1 full round of Bio2 from me took down 1% of its hp while i was kiting it, so you could prolly calculate its hp from that.
It slowly built resistance to Grav from our RDM and my bind resisted entirely for the last couple times i tried before i died.

So, does it have TP regen then?

That's bizarre. I'm pretty sure he didn't do anything to my group except Gnash and Deathgnash (and maybe some sort of buffs, since I can't see those with my filters). :S I kept barwatera up the whole time, but it wasn't needed. Nor did we have to silena a single time. I was pretty much laughing at how easy it was.

Beginner's luck? haha.

[Lordwafik]

orobon rapes if you straight tank it, and spams moves like no tomorrow with melees on it. Felt to me like a fight more aimed towards BLMs and RNGs bouncing it around , SMN too I suppose.

Killed Dea today with 6. RDM, PUP, BLM BLM RDM PLD. One RDM healed, PLD just tossed cures. other RDM kited the NM around the postern, while the BLMs nuked then zoned, PUP doing Nuke>- Zone and Nuke>- Deactivate to reset hate. Worked well, went by decently fast. lots of people watched. PUP nukes did just as much damage as the BLm tier IVs, which was nice. Easy to hit with spells and stay alive. Got the boots. no subligar or grips

i did him today with blm/nin blm/nin rdm/nin pld/nin and a bard (who did nothing) and a 2boxed thf just for TH3.
got the subligar and both grips.

notes: gravity and bind landed easily thru most of the fight (a few resists at the end). it was very easy to bring it all the way across the map to the postern, we thought it would be a challenge but with shadows and grav bind stun landing easily, the fight was a joke, oh and the stomp move it does is stunnable

oh really? I went as sch, but I had this feeling that pup would have been much better of for nuking it. Mp management is such a pain sometimes, especially when you have to worry about dodging tp moves. I guess in this case maybe stealthscreen and ADD would come in handy for continuous nuke action if hate starts to get shaky. I've been itching to try out my new int setup on some higher monsters, I look like such a mage lol. all i need now is that ixion cloak after i swipe some of that enkidu.


thanks for that info though. looks like my next nhun will be as smn. (i'm so sick to death of playing sch so good for me!)

Actually, is there any new nm that are melee friendly? I've done like 15-20 differents fight, and blm + pld kite seem to be the best choice every times (with the exception of 1 or 2). Most NMs have nasty weapons skill, and meleeing them usually lead to unecessary death.

Good call, remind me to send the Admins a suggestion about maybe putting in a search function or something.

Guarantee Body is Pande, no way in hell would they put 3/4ths of a set on ZNM's, and 1/4th randomly on an HQ pop of an NM with it's own loot to pick from.

Worm will have Cuchu's cape, and it's possible/likely that the worm could randomly drop any of the bodies from the other NM's inside there.

What worries me is that Brave grip is probably going to be on Pande.
