    Well yeah, but if three blus stand around dpsing as normal on temp, he is just going to spam tp and you're going to wipe immedietly. I'm not saying you should put together this type of setup just for this strategy, but if you want to 6man it with blus for dps, I think you're going to have to kite. And if you're going to kite, I'd rather have a dedicated kiter in damage reduction/hp/defense food/gear with movement+ and 2 blus going all out, than 3 blus trying to share hate and juggle the kiting back and forth.

    I've done it 3BLU/NIN, WHM,RDM,BRD. It was fast but we did eat alot of damage. Pretty much everyone was out of MP when JoT hit the floor, it was pretty fcking fun though. You can also Kite it with a PLD or NIN and have a couple BLU DDing, the BLUs will still wreck it, BLU spells cast extremely fast so they are pretty easy to hit, even on a kited target. Cannonball is pretty nice for kited fights also and you don't have to worry about distance with that.

    Did it a long time ago with 3xwar, whm, brd rdm. Wasn't easy, but definitively doable if WAR don't suck at trading hate. With run fast gears, it would probably be even easier.

    Never done it with 3 blu, whm rdm brd, but I'm sure it's easier than with 3 war.

    Blue's Are Great On this Fight for Good Dmg, Make sure they have Each type of Melee BMagic, We Normaly Trust our Blu's to Deal most of our DMG, And Smns Normaly Do all the tank'ing!

    3/4SMNS 2RDMs/Nin Or Rdm/nin And Brd +cor Can easly kill this and very fast
    Titan - Blunt Mode (Immune to Optical/Pet) Titant Take's Almost No dmg in This fight around 50dmg+? a hit whats alot less than most PLDs

    Garuda - Slashing(?) Also take's alil More dmg than titan But Still Deals Decent Dmg,

    The RDM is Really Just "Back Up" If things go Bad, Rdms Starts Kiten it till Avaters Get Hate back!!!

    Even Doing this "18' man" We find Smns Save us ourselfs Alot of pain, And Deaths Normaly when they get hate everyone pulls back and lets avaters take all the shit!

    Sorry, that was the language-jerk in me. Nice info though, wouldn't have thought SMNs did well on this.

    You can easily low man this with a few SMNs, they do amazing damage on him.

    As said above:

    Titan - Blunt
    Garuda - Slash

    but dont forget

    Fenrir - Cresent Fang is piercing.

    CORs also can Quick Draw JoT between SMNs and CORs you can do a lot of TP free damage.

    Kill with 6 or less regularly when we kill it as an LS. Main thing is accounting for optic induration. It always does it back to back, and you can see it essentially charge up before its going to go. SMN always BP's in blunt mode and leaves the avatar out so the avatar eats the second Induration, not the mages. Just need a whm thats quick with the stona and the PLD to have voke or flash up. It doesn't actually reset any hate, just makes it basically forget you're there until you act on it again. A few solo/duo runs on it, its the most annoying Tier 1 just due to all the running. :/ Yes, the graphics are terrible, I know.

    Have 4 people solo 4 pots, and everyone else fight the one in hume tower since it's hardest spot to reach (if it pop somewhere else, they can be there in less than 5 minutes)

    Oh I have no problem getting there myself at all. Its when it pops there and the LS wants to come kill it, getting them there. I always run around and solo pop it myself.

    Hume takes forever because of the retarded Quasilumine that move at turtle pace.


    Hume: Left gate --> escort x2
    Mithra: Left gate --> escort x1 --> west midway through the first escort
    Taru: Left gate --> west than south
    Elvaan: right gate --> run through the first escort
    Galka#1 (from entrance): Left gate --> Run through taru tower and go downstair --> all the way east to South east tower -> upstair
    Galka#2 (If you're inside mithra tower): Take portal downstair --> head toward the central area and go south --> take the one sided teleport and go east all the way to SE tower --> go back upstair


    The only one that requier escort is Hume, and that's why I send the alliance there usually. Mage can easily get there solo, but it's harder for melee to deal with the aggro ghrah and everything. Every other tower are soloable easily

    Whenever I do this fight, I only bring BLUs, RDM, BRD and WHM. BLUs tear this mob apart and do it very well.
