Abyssea HNMs

I can understand if your tanks get doomed and they end up dying. Other than that, he did nothing that was threatening aside from Dark Star. Even then, shit's not that strong.

He used dark star on us, wasn't too bad. However he did use meteor on us in the glacier, also we tanked it from behind to avoid the doom breath.

All of our abyssites shattered when popping tier 3 and the wyrm

Pretty quirky fight, triple/quadrupal attacks? Attacks like a machine basically but doesn't really hit super hard.

We found the best thing to do was to stun Gravity Horn in a BLM stun rotation, but he either built a stun resistance or completely starts resisting stun at lower HP. Gravity horn is damage, hate reset (seems either conal or AoE) with defense down.

The other move is called Quake Blast which seemed like an AoE strip (stripga?).

just dropped mats, really weird fight.

Can somebody besides the popper gain the new abyssite? Need a definitive answer if possible. :s

Only the person who healed and popped gets it.

i'mma firing ma lazah!

I would like to fight this !

[Despain]

To clarify we fought the Wyrm in East Ron... maybe thats why it was such a pussy? Didn't use Meteor once, but did shit like Thundaga III and such.

[Sin Harvest]

Got it on first drop, we were not ready for it to be honest. (zero mp and stuff)
Me on sam and thf basically duo'd it with the thf using bloody bolts to heal. Lived through hundred first by spamming hobaku.

Got it to about 25% I believe then wiped after tanks died from Scissors.

Is there a time limit on popping tier 2 mobs? we're currently working on Xarcabard, after killing 1 it's saying there's no monsters

treat it like Ixion, instead of using melee tho, use SMN they raped the shit out of it, took all of 20 minutes to kill.

Our first attempt we were messing around with it and learned a lot about the NM, like how its Arrow move that removes all your clothes can be circumvented by standing on elevated platforms, and doube march > march and ballad

0/2 on the Black Abyssite, 1/2 Eyes, got Ebony Log, Ethereal Something and Darksteel Ingot the first time.

For Tier 2 I found there would be only 2 at a time with some unknown repop time. My group would kill 2 and then have to change zones. Only times we killed only 1 was when another group was killing T2 as well

[toqabowl]

anyone try to get pics of the new nms and see if they can be used in pankration?

[Renoturk]

Can anyone post a specific strat for Orcus? My LS got him to 67% before wiping.

[absolutezero]

So, has anyone else had their abyssia shatter?I haven't seen anyone else mention that happening

yes this also happened to us when we pops Vampire in northlands.

[Finalnub]

Can anyone confirm/deny whether any of the tierIIIs are susceptible to bind/Slow II? Before I completely give up on a rdm/nin solo on any of them
