I was 3Sam/1Whm/1Bst/1Thf about an hour into starting the quest. I was eventually 3Sam/8Whm/7Thf/6Bst, a 4-5 hour cold spell. Ended up 8Sam/15Whm/15Thf/9Bst. Shit is random, and it randomly does not favor Sam...

Lies

I tossed 16 SAM Seals before i got my 8THF Seals (And i'm still only 5/8 on BST), that and i've tossed 15 WHM Seals.

I'm pretty sure its not "Random not in favor of SAM" its just "Reads your current 75+ Jobs and gives you the ones you don't fucking need"

Ive seen MNK and NIN drop from it so far. We haven't killed it to much but are doing a big farming run tonight and then again this weekend so I can give you a better idea then.

Im pretty sure BLU + MNK can do it as well. Its not to hard to kill really and no really bad moves. Just make sure you take off Bio.

[Devolver]

Edit: We killed it twice and got PLD and COR for sure.

Fantastic, thanks.

does anyone have more infomation on the T2 Orobon (i forget name) looking for possible low man strat, (or just less than 12)
any info would be great, mainly does grav or bind stick and does he have movement speed / constant double attack?
thanks

Wiki says moves slower than normal speed, I don't see any reason why kite/nuking wouldn't work, especially with movement speed atma. I'm gonna give it a try when I get the orobon side pop items with sch / blm / rdm and whatever other mages I can gather.

Are you talking the zone boss for the mission you get when you first zone in? I was thinking about trying this also but was also a little worried about the supposed death moves it has.

Zone boss. Unless whatever moves it has have a huge range they shouldn't really be an issue nuke kiting it, I haven't read anything about any death moves? I know it can charm but obviously nobody should be in range at any given point.

Sorry, Not sure where I thought it had a death. Was talking about deathnash which is basically just throat stab. Which shouldn't be a problem at all for rdm/nin. Now just need to be sure dots and nukes can take it down solo in under 2 hours.

[FailureMidgard]

Anyone that's fought Sobek (upper tier bugard) know if it's low-mannable at all? Or how hard was it for an ally, etc.

[lolwut]

RDM legs +2. Makes refresh 4/tic and refresh 2 7/tic.

Does the enhanced effect apply only to the wearer or does it apply to targets as well?

Posted info on it already in this thread, but:

Casts slow as hell (his spells aren't deadly or even worth worrying about).

Typical Bugard TP moves.

Tyrant Tusk -> Conal death.

Stun Tyrant tusk and he's a joke.

[Deader2818]

Do we know what Tuskertrap drops? I see wiki has BLU listed and I cant find the other NM that drops BRD legs so im assuming that?

Im guessing... BLU, BST, BRD, PUP?

[Maxwell]

We've gotten brd legs off the colibri NM many times. I don't remember what the tuskertrap drops, though I think Blu was one of them.

[Not Kuno]

Tuskertrap is the flytrap? I've seen blu and smn.

[Dooom]

On which note, the page for Tuskertrap on wiki states "NM hits have high chance of not waking you." Does cure still wake people as normal? Manageable by a party or less?

[Tonko]

Cures still wake you, a small party would probably have an easier time with this vs a big alliance.

[Dooom]

Awesome, thank you. I like to get most of my NMs done with less than a party, already able to spam NMs for all the other jobs I care for that can be handled with my melee-centric friends and mage mules but was worried about smn as the fly's evasion is such a pain, being able to do flytrap for them is a big help. Thank you!

[Rocl]

Tuskertrap is a jerk. He favors Soporific, which deals damage and has that weird almost Nightmare sleep, Sublimation won't wake you, and his melee hits don't either, I believe. The only way to wake up is wait for it to wear or get cured. Gloessucus, the slow move or whatever its called, if I remember right (and I may not) had to be Erased before applying Haste.

[Deader2818]

So far been able to do all of the seal nms with 5-6 people. Rabbit, Bugard, Lizard, Raptor, Piesite, Spider, Frog, Fly,Oboron, we have done with pretty much the set up of MNK, SAM, RDM, THF, BRD and other times the 6th was a BLM (no other jobs). None of them seem to hard to take down with a good group so id assume all of them could be take down with similar set ups.

Any idea of the range on Soporific?
