    Promy bosses and TP moves

    So I am getting ready to do Promy-Vahzl. Our thf mentions that he did some testing on his last runs in the promies and the bosses only did one of their TP moves when a player used one of theirs. Also, he noted that BLU is dangerous b/c since the blu's spells are actually mob TP moves it could activate the boss' moves. Needless to say this surprised me, and I am curious if anyone else can validate this. For the dem/mea/holla ones, I was a blm and it was so long ago that I can't recall what happened. Since then I've been doing most of the other CoP missions as Blu for the wonderful 12 second stun.

    I would also be interested to know if this TP-behavior in promy is only for the boss-mobs or for all mobs in the promies.

    Also, I apologize if this has been discussed before, but I couldn't find it in any obvious searches I've done.

    Never heard or noticed such thing. Promy-vahlz is a joke if you got with your typical well balanced pt.

    Multi-hit BLU spells give mobs lots of TP, maybe that's what he meant?

    I am thinking that is what he meant as well. Being a BLU, I pretty much only set multi-hit moves like Bludgeon or when I am farming spells or need the Undead Killer job trait.

    To me I think this would be novel if it were true, but it would go against how every other mob works in ffxi. We have a good static at the moment with a DNC and me as BLU, we'd just have to rethink our strategy if the TP thing is true.

    I always thought Blu magic was well... Magic; which Is why every physical spell is 10TP per hit
