Ix'drk reraise limit?

[_chuchu]

43 reraises about 2 years ago

[Zumi]

I seen it Reraise 40 something times, we sac pulled to get rid of qns. It eventually dropped cape. Happened about a year ago.

forgot the final RR count but i almost vomit irl

This post made me rofl. Seriously what the crap SE, what a double standard. Full of badness as usual.

[Pergo]

i'd watch complaining about it reraising and taking forever. make an issue out of it and they can always change it so that it doesn't reraise regardless if it drops anything, or that it depops after 2hours, regardless if you're still fighting it

[Avarice]

I've read reports of it reraising some 80-something times.

[Revann]

The most I've ever personally seen was 31 reraises a few years ago. We pulled it to the zone and did not kill the adds. Had never heard of anyone having any more reraises than that until seeing this thread. I think we popped Ix with three people and by the end we had a full alliance there lol. The one kill where I got my cape from it didn't reraise at all and I'm almost 100% sure we left the adds up and killed Ix at the zone.

I didn't know that killing the Qn's helped with the amount of reraises.

Can a single BLM or RDM solo them? If you do the nuke/zone, do the Qn's link with each other? And how do you handle the possibility of multiple EES?

[Indalecia]

The ranger just fucking sits there shooting you, so yes to him. Not sure about other.

[fishstix]

Probably links, but if you nuke zone, you should be able to seperate them. If the QN's do link together, I assume it links in the fashion of normal mobs linking, not shared hate.

I've been doing ix'drk the past few days with some friends. 4 people, all blms. we had 3 killing ix'drk, and 1 kite the qn's to the zone and make them depop, then return to ix'drk to help kill. So far, lowest number of reraises has been 2, and highest 24. Same strategy for each fight. So the # of reraises seems entirely random. But wish that SE would take their own advice and make a time limit on it. Like, once it's reached, the next death is the final one. No more reraises.

except SE would make it depop, not eliminate RR for the next death.

[Arthars]

that will make Ix DRK a mini AV

oh wait

they are aerns

[rog]

most i've seen was 5 RRs, without ever killing the QNs. of course i've only killed it 3 times, but it RRd 5, 2, and 0 times.

i guess it made up for the insane amounts of time i spent down there solo/duoing it without even getting it to pop (longest was like 9+ hours, without a pop...).

[Ghondi]

Just killed this Mob and did Not kill the pets no re raises at all and it has happened b4 its my opinion that its just all random. I have had it raise up to about 40+ times though before. It all just seems to be random to me though.

[Snprphnx]

hell, i am more pissed over Ix'Drg. my group went up there for 4 hours constantly keeping all 4 rooms cleared, and we never saw a single pop. bastard. the 2 pops we had seen both dropped capes, which our brds loved, but our thfs, drgs, whm, and blms hated.

[BlakLanner]

My personal record is 62 while trioing it. It took all day, then dropped the vice when we needed the deed. What a wasted day.

[DancingEdge]

I'm guessing 255. It'd be a beautifully sadistic reference to the stat caps in past FFs.

I really wish that picture was true...My group went 32 reraises, 5 hours considering it was just a small pt of blm(and a sch...mmm, hailstorm). Started at 9pm, ended at 2am. We use vent, so we had people crying, bitching, and overall upset in general. It was horrible. SE really needs to fix this, it's almost as bad as pre-patch PW!
