Novio
Novio
So, uh, I was never into the sea thing so I never had the chance to snatch one of these up before abyssea. How hard is it to get a novio earring nowadays? Killing JoL I can most likely get assistance for but farming the pop, I dunno. Think I can solo a JoL pop being lv.90 now or should I just forget of the earring and move on?
Solo? I highly doubt it. Duo? Yes, most of it was duo'd by skilled RDMs at 75. Justice might be the worst one due to baby spamming and slighly higher magic resistance (from what I remember.) I am sure you can 4 man all of it though as DDx2 + healer + BLM/rdm(or other nuking job). DDs + healer on justice while the blm nukes down the pets with one spell. Only problem would be charm on main tank but shouldn't have a problem if another DD is on it.

Why should that make a difference?
The world didn't end when Abyssea came out.
I'm sure you can find an LS that still does Sea and will sell to you.
JoLove isn't hard. Trigger Farming for it sucks the balls
You can solo a majority of the NMs in the Palace for triggers
(Best of luck on Ix'DRK. Camped him for 3 *** hours one day and he never popped... seriously)
Justice, Hope and especially the *** known as Prudence You'll need at least a solid party of 6 or more.
[+]
No, you don't need 6 or more for hope and prudence. Prudence was duo'd at 75 by RDM using hate swapping. It was powder boots + pull away and ping pong hate, something like that. It isn't nearly as necessary now. Have a healer + DD(preferably an eva tank such as thf) and another person with powder boots or flee, kite the second prudence far away until it despawns. After it despawns (noted by the one being held opening his mouth) rape his face. Hope is a normal shark with silly magic, he isn't hard.

4 People will probably not suffice for prudence or justice.
All the ix'aerns can be soloed
Faith can be soloed
Fort can be soloed
Temperance can be soloed, but its going to take a while.
If you have never done sea before and expect to solo anything inside it, you will probably need to do some reading.

Would like to see proof of these please.
Any links, photos or videos that you can provide.
Till then... Prudence is a ***.

Also to add to that, make sure the DD + Healer combo is actually dding prudence during that kiting period. He gets a bit vicious when he has his mouth open. Also, for whatever reason, if you die you can pin him against the bush that is nearby.

You don't need more than that for prudence, most definitely. Three will suffice, just like I said it would. Justice I am unsure about, although I can see it being done with 4, the only problem would be the blm running out of MP before the DD take down Justice. I don't know how much dmg they could pump out with the blms mp pool, most likely around 2k with convert.

I don't believe prudence was duoable at 75 and I lead a sea shell for a solid 3 years.
One person had to depop
so the other 75 rdm is soloing prudence with what? 5 hour long kill with bio with its mouth open? He teleports anytime hate is swapped and uses temporal shift which is stun. So if the other rdm is nuking they are going to pull hate, get stunned, and probably die seeing as he has constant triple attack with high attack speed.

a blm could solo babies now relatively easy

Um they could in the past as well, it took 1 AM2 nuke. The problem is MP over time, it depends on how fast the DD can take down Justice.
[+]
I mean mp wise. A blm would be able to kill all the babies while maintaining MP for long enough for 2 or 3 dds to kill.

I am not sure exactly how it was done but I remember someone posting a strategy on BG about it. Had to do with kiting the two away using powder boots and both RDM killing Prudence at the entrance to the palace, using that ramp to ping pong hate. He doesn't always warp if close enough, and I am guessing he just ran back and forth on that ramp.

Then why did you say Justice couldn't be done with 4?

Proof of what? 4 manning Justice/prudence/hope? Does everyone posting advice in here need to post proof to pass your judgement? Shut up and go try it, its easy just like the rest of this game.

1 blm 2 dd and 1 whm would struggle. If the op wants to risk popsets on a slight chance of winning be my guest. The DD should be well equip.
Said healer, not whm. RDM is a superior healer outside of abyssea, they can also help nuke the babies. With Refresh II, MP shouldn't be too much of a problem. This is all assuming the OP isn't a gimp full perle/pink etc person. That is a bit of a stretch though.
[+]
Was doing Jailers a few weeks ago with my buds. We did Temperance, Hope, Justice, and Love. 3 DD(War, Blu, Thf), Whm Blm and Rdm. Hope was so lame compared to how he was at 75. :/ Died fast as a sky god does these days. Justice was easy too, 1 BLM can take out pets no problem, though if you turn it into a long fight MP will give out. Haven't done Prudence in years. People still have the virtue from it, so we've been skipping him entirely. I still don't remember him being all that difficult, just insanely annoying. With the warping around, the Perfect Dodging, etc. etc.
[+]
He warps around when hate switches, a properly geared THF or NIN can take him down np. Hope is nothing more than a shark with few spells lol.

Draylo...
Instead of being such an *** and making yourself feel superior, if you're certain your strategies work, why not explain them, in detail? Offer detailed help to the OP who clearly wants to work on a Novio which requires a helluva alot of Sea NM killing, something which you claim to know alot about and especially in low man.
Please don't take this the wrong way, but why not try and be nice, supportive and informative to people? You're just shooting people down, telling them they suck and contradicting virtually everyone in this thread...
This is a community bro..
