What that killed in the past?

[Priran]

Go want to do look more like?

[Novax]

Disappontment means you timed out. Are you doing it in xarcabard? Any stonewalls you see, you can use it. Bring it to the nearest one where you popped it. One rdm stands on each side. The rest is the same usual stuff. Backface..etc

Yeah we did it in xarc we were near the ramp to ul. range we were a little scared to try and bring it that far though so we did it by the xarc blm camp.

I see that the Zilant Ring is listed on FFXI Wiki as being dropped by Yilbegan, is there any screenshot confirmation of this?

For that matter has there been any Galdr Rings since the first few SS? Pushing 0/20 now without a ring.

More information on Shoggoth:

Dualboxed 2x RDM/NIN and got him down to 17%, unfortunately he depopped on me since I kited a little too far when he was just ending chainspell. I believe a duo setup can do ok, maybe a blm/nin and rdm/nin or 2x rdm/nin. Quite a number of times on chainspell, he will either spam sleepga II (can be remedied with poison pots), or he will spam Tier IV spells. I did notice that sometimes during chainspell he would use TP moves, I don't know if anyone else has had this experience. I did die once, but kept kiting on other character till I could HP and come back.

I cant find the post that might have covered this but if i logout/dc after popping a t3 i still get the abyssite if im back on in time for the death correct?
My mule has a t3 pop but my main is normally used as TH when im on my mule so i buff-->login-->th--> logout to brd normally.

Just 2box it? Unless they're on the same polid? Then thats just lol...

[Kalendor]

Question for those who fought Verthandi. Is Norn Arrows AOE ? If yes, directional ? People mention 2-tank setup, if they fight opposite sides, do they both get hit?

[Windfoxster]

Not sure if anyone is interested in this NM but i will post it anyway lol.
8men, Rng dual botted a whm for r3 and thf was a smn before job change. Rdm/nin x2 brd smn smn rng whm smn
I won't consider this low men cause it can be done with 3-4 like Lord Ruthven but i just happened to have the people for this.

[Afrohatch]

I feel like we're doing something wrong lol, we've gotten no ring in 10-12 T3 kills XD Shitty dorp rate is shitty

[Shenrien]

There is a JP linkshell on my server, MilkPudding has been killing Yilbegan like crazy and they have several of the INT rings and DEX rings, can only imagine that is where it comes from, if I see one of the members with the DEX ring I'll snap a picture of it.

[Windfoxster]

And this, the final T3 of the 5 paths. 8men, rdm/warx2 brd smn smn blm whm thf. Can be 3-4men too. Nothing damaging, gravitic horn is the ultimate which gives it def down/grav aura.

Spoiler: show

I'm actually interested in this because my friend and I both need 10 Eye of Verthandi for magian weapons. What strategy/setup would you use for the 4 man strat you said. We've been doing Skuld and Urd with DNC THF WHM and RDM. If it's basically the same thing that would be great to know.

Rdm/ninx2 Rng. The last job can be extra DD or brd. Use the broken down Forts in Sauromugue Champaign to bounce. The fact that it keeps buffing and requires dispelling, you will need certain mp regen. The most irritating move is not Norn arrows but Cyclonic Torment which dispels all your buffs and at the same time messed up your composure buffs. You will then have to rebuff yourself. It won't spam it but it can get irritating.

rdm brd sam sam is significantly faster with no real loss to safety if your sams don't suck

sam is a better tank than rdm for any of the t3s besides ruthven, assuming you have 6+ people.. rdm is only if you're extremely short

inb4 some moron says sams don't normally carry pdt/mdt sets

[Shadida]

Killed Verthandi with RDM/NIN x3, SMN x4, COR BRD and THF. No title, here's drops:

So any theories about getting black abyssite when you get a ring or a title are bogus.

OMG Really?! No way! It's not like the first Black Abyssite that was posted was sans ring or title.

[Shadida]

I've been following the thread and must have missed any photographic evidence of it. Chill out, just trying to help.

Is BLU good on all those VNMs where You suggest RNGs?
Is Cannonballing and disseverment every 5 min for poison even close to potent of rng dmg?
I asking cuz i wonder if its (offtopic) worth to make RNG if you have BLU for endgame (I dont like to play non merrited in combat jobs so I plan to have GKT 4/8 polearm 8/8 sword 8/8, so making ranger would force me to probably lower polearm for archery) Considering you have good equipped BLU and SAM (gkt+polearm) and DRG,BLM its worth to make RNG for endgame and lower polearm?? Yeah i know i did to much offtopic, sorry i will move with this question but idk where.
