Abyssea - Vunkerl Discussion

[wop]

40 mins with 4 is lol

Like Renzy said, any mage, or just SCH with helix+bio2 and Rapture > nuke...20 mins solo maybe less if have good atma

[Fievel]

I wouldn't even bother bringing a PLD

^

PLD is completely useless for the fight, the mob constantly swings at nothing and with movement speed he's stupidly easy to kite, also he's stunable and never seemed to gain any resistance to it, making it even easier!

[Rocl]

Rapture > nuke

how is this possible i do not understand

also@blocking giant hits: occasionally i'd get caught with my pants down (actually a lot, in vunkerl) and get hit by the giant because i wasnt paying 100% attention (*'-'); anyways the damage variance has nothing to do with blocks, i think, sometimes he'd hit me sub 200 and other times for over 500. on my paper-thin defense scholar that is

(I think the min/max i saw was ~125 vs ~535, same giant)

[Heie]

You just have light arts up use rapture and nuke. 10% higher mp cost and cast time then without having arts up. Also lower elemental skill. And you would keep rapture up. Its brilliant!

[Bootykilla]

Any info or strategies for Div-e Sepid?

[Xerlic]

Easily beat him MNK RDM RDM. It's a pretty standard fight.

We also had a DRG/SAM with us since we were farming skulls from the cointeaches, but he didn't melee the imp. Just med > WS and Jump.

[Yeager]

I can finally confirm Cirque Scarpe (PUP AF3 feet) come from giant gold boxes here. It hasn't been listed on Wiki yet.

[Warudo Ecksu]

Skimmed thread and didn't see the answer, anyone know where to get the Vicious Spittle for repeats of the bridge quest?

Marids are now up {i-8} on Quetz and Ayra is their free roam NM.

Ayravata hits like a truck: 300+ damage and has enpetrify but moves really, really slowly is true-sight aggro or true-sound not sure (aggroed me with sneak/invis from the front when I came up to it). He has a pretty big range, but I'm not sure if that's just from people aggroing and dying/deaggroing. I've seen it over by lord varney/bats and over by the devegetators. It's most likely from people moving it though.

Think it is more free roaming. I have seen it at conflux 00. Although I am sure that is from players dragging it there. I have seen it by lord varney. Also seen it down by peapuks.

[Eanae]

Probably been answered, but I can't find anything through skimming the thread, but is there any respawn time on the Iconclad NM's yet?

Someone said approximately 90 minutes, sounds about right from my experience.

[Raen Ryong]

From observations, earliest 60 latest 120 so far.

[AlexRuzhyo]

Didn't see them mentioned aside from pop items in the thread, but Marids are up on Lakshmi. NM is wandering around. Located north of Prefect camp, at that 3x Path where the Ironclad roams.

Marids were mentioned like 4x on this page alone.

Hanyako asked me to post the dialogue from the fame NPC so here they are:

Spoiler: show

I don't believe I've seen you before.
≺Player Name≻, you're called? That's no name I've ever heard.≺Prompt≻
As a stranger, people will be reluctant to request things of you. You will first need to earn their trust.≺Prompt≻

≺Player Name≻? I might have heard the name somewhere before...≺Prompt≻
It seems to me you're not quite considered part of the community yet. But with some effort, you should be able to earn a place for yourself here.≺Prompt≻

Ah, ≺Player Name≻. That is a name I'm familiar with.≺Prompt≻
The folk here are beginning to know you. In fact, your name pops up in their conversations from time to time.
Don't let up your efforts, you hear?≺Prompt≻

Ah, ≺Player Name≻. I hear your name quite often these days.≺Prompt≻
Most of survivor community has come to know you. This is undoubtedly a fruit of your labors.
Keep up the good work!≺Prompt≻

≺Player Name≻! I'd be hard pressed to find one among us who doesn't already know your name.≺Prompt≻
Your accomplishments have earned you the respect of all the folk here. I hope you will keep on doing good for the community.≺Prompt≻

Ah, ≺Player Name≻! How good of you to drop by!
Not that you need to be told, but you're quite the celebrity among the survivors.≺Prompt≻
The help you've afforded the community has been of immeasurable value.
You thoroughly deserve your reputation as the jewel of Vunkerl!≺Prompt≻

[Carraway]

Ayravata aggros truesight. I've seen a RDM/NIN duo take him out, and there was a NIN/DNC trying to solo him some time later, but I have no idea if he was successful or not.

The reason why you see him in very strange places is because he is in the path for the supply packet repeatable quest, along with the Ironclad Executioner and Hanuman. It's the same reason why you run into situations like this:

That supply packet quest is a huge pain in the ass now, even moreso than it used to be.

[arus2001]

Yeah, would be nice if camps kinda force despawned a mob that crossed into the field. Might save on some of this random MPK train crap.

[Aemora]

They could patch in a ward there!

[Rehn]

So what's an outline of quests to do in vunkerl for fame?
