Killing Ifrit, July 2005 (Same month AV and other sea NMs were added)

Trick to finding new NM's - Killing Ifrit - a Final Fantasy community

Fair enough, backup from a year and a half ago(saved ffxi files to external HD to save time installing) doesn't have it either. Probably just noticed ru'phuabo having a different name than qn and remember it wrong :/

[Hogie]

I'd laugh so hard if that was the key. Keep other Aerns closeby and he won't Meteor, haha.

Probably not, though.

lol I honestly dont think its a bad thing to try. One huge difference that every single LS does with JoL is fight it away from its spawn point. Maybe bring AV back to its spawn area?

I think shepardG's idea was wynavs, not aerns, but I suppose it could be either. It's largely impractical to test because you'd need some amazingly high numbers to tank, lock, and damage AV in addition to tanking 6 wynavs. Since that one report a few pages back that said familiar heals the wynavs up to full, doubles their max HP, and makes them hit harder, it sounds even more scary. You'd need 3 extra jobs there to lock down AV's pet 2hrs, or you'd need to be ready to eat 6 mijin gakures from wynavs with 3k HP.

Unless you're simply going for proof of concept, I suppose. Then you'd just need to deal with 3 wynavs and get AV below 80% and wait for him to cast meteor. Still, not an easy task.

I was referring to more of just keeping AV near the Aerns and see if he reacts different when fighting him at his spawn / much closer to it.

nnnnnnnneEEEECCCRO

is it possible that the pets won't MG if within 20 yalms of AV? or possibly bring them down to the sub 10% HP range, and hold them.

[Mojo]

It's possible although it's more like 50 yalms or more.

POIDH = Pics Or It Didn't Happen
IDH the presumably means It Didn't Happen (or It Did Happen, I guess there's some ambiguity)
