Hey I know you!

Good to see you still play

Carry on, sorry.

[Darkdoom]

I'm dualboxing chain 5 at the Cointeachs at F-8 with NIN/WAR & RDM/NIN, seems like this could be a good camp to bring a DD, bard, rdm too and tear it apart. Changing to WAR to see if I can break chain 5.

The effect of the ninja job ability "Mijin Gakure" has been adjusted.
In light of this change, the latent effect granted by the ninja mythic weapon has also been changed.

what happened?

[Toraness]

Has anyone found bell crickets, white butterflies or glow flies yet?

[Pikarya]

what happened?

I'm interested also.

[Milkster]

what happened?

Raised with 50% HP now.

anyone else seen this? the greater amphipte closest to xarc SE of OP, roams mostly where the ground declines the most, it wont aggro..

[Rocl]

Yeah, looks like they basically indicate their level as we were able to duo a small one with ease and watched a bigger one raping a group of 5, including their Paladin. Can be helpful for smaller BLU farming groups as they basically con more or less the same for 75's (VT Low Eva).

Actually, the bigger ones seems to have weapon skills unique to them. I have yet to see a little one put up either shield or do the terror move, but I did not fight many of them.

And no weakness. Damage doesn't seem to be different, but I'm not sure, our NIN blew up a few times in Limbus (Apollyon NE so had restore chests each floor) doing 600-1000ish with full HP. Least it's a magic dmg version of EES that wipes your food / buffs ? <.<

Yeah, I couldn't get it to aggro at all. Tried for quite some time. Finally went north and got one easily. >_>

Was easy as NIN BRD dualboxed.

Could be luck, but we were unbuffed and small ones TP moves did only around 230-330~ to us, compared to 800~ AoE of the bigger one which basically nailed other parties PLD and BLU at the same time.

Outpost is a hilly region so it can be the terrain fucking up. A group was able to aggro it twice(first one being intentionally and the second one by mistake, post wipe).

[bungie]

naw man i followed it for like 30 min, at the very bottom of the hill to the flat area west of the op where bst nm is in dyna. on siren, she shit does not aggro, perma flies.

there is also another that roams the campaign battle area, that one works correctly, aggros n such. 1hr repops, i believe.

Anyone else finding ice campaign NMs to be retardedly overpowered to the point of hilarity? Every time I've popped up to Glacier for campaign the new flying gargoyle thing drops down 1k+ AoEs on top of retarded shit like paralyze, petrify, silence, etc...

Good times seeing 20 people die, get raised then have someone bring the mob over to all the weakened people just to get raped again.

Shadowwing and his cronies are way too powerful. It would be 100% if they landed tbh, airborne gargoyles suck. AOE magic dmg that wipes shadows every 3 seconds is not OK (especially when it does 900+)

We had a small one put up the shield yesterday.

Lame, did it do the Terror move as well? Well wait I think that does physical shield or some shit. I'm trying to erase Walruses from my memory ASAP they looked cool but are terrible monsters.

Pretty sure the small ones terrorised our guys when we tried a couple.

We didn't see the Terror move at all. Only fought one small one.

I laughed.

Wait, no I didn't. I guess someone thinks they're clever.

Aparently someone wasn't trying to be funny, they're just an idiot. This guy watched my linkshell fight it and this was a result. Skip through the bulk of it until it dies
