hey, this is ronnie, if you remember me. im signing up for FF 14, are any people from the shell going to 14? and what server are they going to if you know. thanks
So far the general consensus is that XIV is terrible and no one's going to make the switch. From the sounds of it, though, everyone that was doing the Alpha and Beta was playing on Kefka, so I'd guess if anyone plays it, they'll be there.
So you pulled all 4 to the entrance and then proceeded to kill the 3 helpers and then take out the main boss? And then every now and then pulled the other 3 again? Did I miss anything? Or get it wrong? Trying to learn to do this fight as the one time I went to it with THF SAM PLD/NIN RDM WHM BRD it did not go well at all
The way this BC works, when you pull the main NM, the other three automatically link. Hate on the lesser mobs is (mostly) shared with the main NM, meaning whoever is tanking the main NM will also be tanking the adds.When the adds die, they repop at their starting spot and start to run back to you.
What we do is kill adds as they come in and then when they're all dead start back on the main guy. When Darkheir is near death (~30%, may vary for your DDs), we sleep adds and kill him.
After reading my reply, I'll try to eliminate a bit of ambiguity from the original.
What I meant about the pull is that if you pull any of them all the others will link, so pulling an add instead of the Darkheir will not allow you to take them on one at a time.
Also, the general idea is to keep the adds dead so that you don't have 2+ mobs hitting your tank. This makes casting nigh impossible for the tank. Since mobs build sleep resistance fast, killing them is the best option.
Ah I see. Thank you. I remember trying this fight before and we pulled to the entrance and killed the adds but I don't recall them coming after us again. If what I read was true and killing them eliminates certain stat bonuses though while they are down then it's probably better to kill them off every now and then.
I think we have control of La Vaule currently so I might give this a go today. Thanks again!
Yeah, back when adds didn't return and engage you again our static was just 5. We didn't have the second DRG and it worked out fine. Now with the increased damage output required for this setup, we added a third DD for safety. Strategies have changed a little since then.
ok, thanks man. im on fabul server atm

Oh geez so it's gotten harder. Our tank always got downed really quickly and couldn't hold hate.
