MMM findings

[ronin sparthos]

HP and MP seems like a good start. Couldn't hurt to have the family run to intimidate. After that would look at what jobs you have and tailor any extra runes to that.

Is the HP/MP boost substantial? The rune says it is but eh... SE has been known to lie.

[Cymmina]

Running the JP wiki page through the translator, they say it is +50% and +75% if you resonate it. Attribute runes are listed as +20, +30 resonated. Hardiness, Mysticism, Intellect, and Force of Will are all commonly used on the mazes I've seen on Duplidoc.

In case anyone is curious, I found this JP blog with some pictures and details about Shadhavar (tier4 boss): http://ff11diabolosleone.seesaa.net/...5.html#comment

My Japanese isn't amazing, but it looks like it summons ramuh and does Judgement bolt multiple times. If someone can translate the entire thing, would be really helpful.

If I can get a good group together tonight to beat the corse, I'll have access to the fight tomorrow.

So my interest got piqued after seeing belt dropped here... After a little research, two things seem clear to me.
1) 99.99999999% odds that the belt doesn't drop here
and 2) I don't see any way that fuckin sexy sch robe doesn't drop from tier 4.

And thus, some asshole trolling has indirectly helped me find a new thing to do. ^^

I only wonder now if indeed you lose or keep tier 4 access on win. Does anyone have solid info on that yet?



*Note: By fuckin sexy I mean reskinned lvl 20.

I'll translate after campaign, but I can also speak to the guy now (Sent him a tell). He says he's trying again today, so we'll see the results.

Edit: Fuck, the whole translation gone because of double click mouse...

Basic stuff to note:
- Uses thundaga III for up to 1k DMG
- Fools didn't work on Astral Flow, Lightning spear, or Lance of Zeus
- They tried to use a Perfect Defense Strategy
- Set up was WAR/NIN, MNK/NIN, DRK/SAM, SMN/WHM, RDM/DRK, and BRD/NIN
- It seems like stun doesn't work
- It has ridiculous defense (Mighty Striked 1.4k DMG, Cata 400 DMG, and Toukon 600 DMG) even with Pizza
- The EVAs was not that bad

Last few bits wonder what to do about this NM.

Thanks for the translation Yugl. Got to try it today for myself.

Pretty much everything said above is correct. None of us have any experience with Ixion, so it wasn't the best attempt ever. It has a permanent shock spikes that does about 80-90damage per spike. Strong enthunder for about 200damage too. Slow, paralyze and elegy all landed though.

I'm guessing because of the annoying shock spikes, ranger would be the way to go for this. Probably making a lightning resist set would be preferable to a MDT set too.

Does anyone have any idea if the enhancements bought with CC points apply to all PT members or just the leader? Wiki says you can get +50 lightning resist with 1 CC point which could help.

Oh and I didn't lose my card, so looks like I am free to spam this everyday.

[dem0nfr0g]

Anyone that got the + resist buff... does it take the spot of a barspell? If so, for the T4 at least, it isn't useful since barspells are 100+ resist. For the flan or the golem, though, since they change elements it may be nice.

[Soundwave]

We had the leader buy the regen/refresh CC enhancement the other night, and it applied to all members. 30HP and 5MP iirc.

[tsola]

I just assumed they would stack since it gives an effect that gives +50 to all resist, so it must be something unique.

Good news that it gives everyone in the party the buffs. Did the regen/refresh give an icon and stack with other forms of regen/refresh?

[Neosutra]

Do you have to record kills for all the T1s on YOUR card to have access to T2, and same for T2 to have access to T3?

[Sprint]

Only need one tier1 to access tier2, and one tier2 to access tier3. Need them all to access the tier4.

[Yugl]

I think his question was whether you need to get the kill on your rune in order for it to count. For example, if I go with a group of six and we only win on my card, will the other members be able to access tier II if I do not attend next time?

[Neosutra]

I figured that out for myself when we won the flan the first time on someone else's card, then next time I only had T1 access, so we did slug on my card. So I guess when I go in today me and that other person will both have access to T2. With luck we will clear both T2 and be able to farm T3 by tomorrow (I'm really just after Lunaris Claws), but we'll probably end up clearing them all just to farm some of the decent items.

Thanx for the answers. Any recommendations on easy T2 to get to T3?

[bador]

goobuee is easy just run when he 2hr and resume atking when his 2hr off

bird also ok but he thf so need acc bonus and he do combo boost>KICK! got headshot 5500 with counterstance on lol because he did jetta before that combo but easy too

golem is easiest for me all he did was elemenets shot with enfeeble effect and chainspell was weak and mostly single spells

[Neosutra]

Killed T1 yesterday and registered on card. No access to T2 >.>. Maybe they just faded away instead of died..

[dem0nfr0g]

Nvm me, read your post wrong. If you traded your card and he gave you dialogue reading something like "You are as cool as an Ice Elemental", that is the text he gives when you beat him. Also, you don't get the full 1k EXP if you don't beat him.

Question: Has anyone tried Lost and Found equipped to a Tabula for 09?

The description implies treasure chests will undergo a "curious change" which could be interpreted as either morphing into a mimic or changing the lootpool.

[dem0nfr0g]

On my runs I did, not sure what it did. We went 1/5 on the calm pigaches though. Has anyone gotten them w/o L+F?

[ronin sparthos]

I haven't seen any of the unique drops in 4 slug kills, 2 flan kills and 1 goobbue kill.

I chalked it up to bad luck but I wonder if you need L+F to drop along the lines of Voucher 07.

[tsola]

You definitely don't need Lost & Found to get gear drops. I have never put it on my mazes and have seen tons of drops. It probably just affects which maze runes drop.

Drop rate on the rare/ex gear has been about 15%~ , and tern gear 75%+ for me.
