    So tired....

    ....of playing a game based solely luck. Is it truly possible to kill 6 Manticore, 18 Logi (single Bombs), 12 Soulflayers, 12 Ahriman and Cerberus as boss? Sick of only being able to do stuff based on luck (claiming HNM, not getting only 18-24 mobs in T3) rather than on skill. Had to rant sorry but please do answer the question.

    Yeah. Fuck this game.

    ...is a forced pop with a 100% drop rate, and, you (probably) won't need any luck to kill it without dying. May be more your speed...

    We farmed nyzul isle floor 80 for probably 2 months between the askar body before mine and when mine dropped. the last 3 runs we had 2 random ppl join us for floor 80. both times they were sams. in both cases askar dropped and we haven't heard form them sense.

    Well yeah if we're gonna go into drop rates try 0/25 Homam Corozza, I can kill the fucking thing clearly, can I get some fucking reward from it SE? Or do I have to play your shitty game forever?

    Under the old system (where they came all at once of a set), It wasn't that bad. (Belive it or not i detest the none linking all coming at once in sets, change to ein)
    A tp burn set up can kill cerb in under 2 mins, the other mobs shouldn't be too much of a issue if your puller is getting them fast.
    Soul flayers go down easily if your bards watch for ice spikes.
    If you bring mobs in sets of 5-6 mobs, with a ave tp burn set up, it'll be close but you can do it.

    Thats the general idea, yeah ... Why give you rewards so you can 'finish' the game (or the goals you set within them) and shelve it when they can just not let you reach your goals and have you keep trying while riding high on the success stories of everyone around you.

    Thats actually not a bad draw for tier3.. but I do feel your pain.

    SSR has been preventing us from completing about 3-4 sets for a little over a year now.

    And when our group first started Einherjar, our first 7 chambers were Ghosts/Skeles + Elementals + Marid Boss. (Which owned the shit out of us back then).

    This isn't a bad mob mix really. Lot of mobs, but not all bad. The only thing I think that would give issues would be the Bombs. Flayers and Eyes go down super fast, and Manticore are a joke on TP moves os you can just mow them down fast.

    Last Cerberus Boss we had lasted a little over 1.5 CS stuns.

    I'm not sure of your group Size or setup, but the setup we have been using which has made Tier II and Tier III cake is:

    4 Parties of BRD WHM MNK/nin DRG/nin WAR/nin DD/nin (the extra DD is usualy SAM or DRK or MNK)
    DRG with Agnon, WAR with Tomahawk, MNK with Penance
    Each of these parties will have no issues with any mob type.

    Each Party's BRD pulls thier own mobs, so we fight 4 mobs at a time, while spreading out along the walls.

    We also have a SCH RDM/drk RDM/drk BLM BLM COR party which does a lot of Add control, and Debuffs etc. The BLMs & RDMs are assinged to parties to assist with Stun on TP moves, and the RDMs Debuff any mob that is being fought.

    Last Tier III was:
    6x Buffalo > 12x Imps > 12x Eyes + 12x Worms + King Behemoth Boss. We finished with about 6-7 minutes left on the clock.

    Meanwhile, my shell is 9/14 on the corazza. Are we alone on that drop rate? Can't get any damn boots, though. Only 4 so far.

    You are probably on the lucky side, my LS is 3/24 on the body over the course of ~14 months. I'd "hope" thats about average or slightly below average..

    Been doing Salvage since it came out, I stopped counting what we were, but Silver Seas and Arrapago can go fuck themselves. Fuck adjusting Dyna drop rates, adjust Salvage. That's one event I'd be *happy* to be out and done with.

    I've done that Turtle once and it is a LOT of hard work, can't imagine doing it 75 times for an item ><
