Guys, it doesn't seem like we have a Beyond Infinity thread yet. Post your strats, job combinations, what has worked, what hasn't worked, etc...
For starters, we just tried SMN, WAR, WAR, DNC, DNC, NIN all with empy. Used Perfect Defense, zerged it. Ended in a fail with him at 20%. Even with PD up he did a 900 Asuran to my face.

Just tried first time as SAM, SAM, NIN, BLU, RDM, WHM.
Not sure why, but Tachi: Fudo was only doing double-digits damage. Very annoying.
Despite that, we were doing ok with melee damage and tanking, until the NPC started doing Victory Smite, Stringing Pummel, and Asuran Fists. All of these essentially one-shotted a NIN or SAM.

These also one shotted our Galka PLD. :/
Bst with 37% pdt and other defensive stuff could tank it well after a sata-> snarl, until about 40% then all hell broke loose my pet died then everyone started dropping like nothing..
in the other thread there was unconfirmed info that damage per hit caps inside weaponskills

We just attempted a 4 man for fun, pld, whm, war, blu, got it to 50%. We only lost because our whm ran low on mp.
Pld, whm, rdm, any 3 DD would probably win this easy.
Pld/war with taco, defender, full pdt set his WS maxxed out at about 500 hp, normal hits maxxed out about 50.
He does regen on wipe, has high defense and loves to skillchain himself. Ate final heaven then victory smite for a nice light SC (which still only did 404).

He seems to have some sort of damage cap on single hits. Someone in our group was using caladbolg and couldn't break 100 dmg, I was on DNC doing 400-500 dmg Eviscerations. So Multi-Hit ws are going to do far more damage than anything else in that fight. Also tested on SMN shiva's Rush was doing more damage than Garuda's Predator Claws. Shiva doing right at 500 dmg and garuda almost 300 dmg. So my guess is Each hit has a 100 damage cap on it or somewhere close to that number.
Edit: Also had a Ukon WAR doing 100-200 Damage Ukko's, 200 being a double attack proc i'm guessing.

its also said, that if you get that item from Degenhard it makes the boss run for 30 secs and greatly reduces his defense. worthwhile if you have nukers .
Whm WHm pld War Ninja Bst
Ochain pld never got below 50% Defender ,tacos , phalanx
and pop Ja's to help reduce damage every now and then.
war Ws'ed every 30sec-1min to help DPS (Bravura)
limited the Use of Ws's so that DD's dont pull hate of pld as much
Whm's did ran out of MP @ 20% so invincible and finish him off.
not bad of a fight.
EDIT: 1/1 Win.

I've tried multiple time that fight.
pld, mnk, war ukon, sam, whm and rdm. >> when the taru go berserk, he one shot everybody. Don't know about Regain but he was spamming them.
we decide to go 4mnk, 1whm and 1smn. It was so easy. Every mnk buy good food. Perfect Defense and the mnk go all out on him. Fight took 1 minute.

5x BST + leech seems to do pretty well on it.

Did it with a PLD MNK WAR COR WHM WHM all empy but PLD and WHMs and lost at 60%
Went back as BST BST SMN SMN SMN COR and won. Clear time was 10 minutes 0 seconds. Uploaded a screenshot.
I guess a well buffed zerg or pet party is the way to go.

Hello,
Going to try this fight soon. I appreciate all the feedback given in this thread, very helpful, but I have one question.
If you lose the fight, do you need to farm the seasoning stone again? Thank you.

Nope, moogle will give you another KI for either 1 merit point or 5 High kindred crests.
Good to know. Thanks a lot ^ ^
Just did a little while ago with MNK x4, Rdm/blm, and Brd/Whm.
Strategy was straight zerg. All mnks used 2hr at start while the rdm chainspell stunned. Took him all the way down to 3% before all us Mnks went down. Rdm then easily kited him while we got back up and chased him for random hits until he was dead.
Lucky win, and fun.

Hello just won the fight, it has been very easy :D
MNKx4 WHMx1 and SMN for hastega and Perfect Defense b4 engage... then 2hr and ws everytime u have tp easy win, Perfect Defense Lasted till 3% but it was too late for him... WHM will spam cure on everyone who get hitted during this 3%...
I was wondering if the fight is repeatable cause i would like to help some friends. If it is, how do i repeat it? Need to refarm stone? Need to spend a merit? or whatelse?

good think i lvled monk then, lol.
If you fail, repeats only cost 1 merit or 5 HKC.
As for doing it again to help friends after you have won, I'm unsure.

Paralyze, Slow, Blind, Stun, and Bio all land and stick easily.
Seems to be able to remove these when doin Asuran Fist

Just did this with BLM/BLM/SCH/WHM/WAR/SMN, popped item and tomahawk (couldn't confirm if tomahawk had any effect) and nuked the crap (nukes were doing 1k+with item, and without the item 80+ dmg lol) out of it got it down to 17% before item wore off and hell started, kited and dotted till it was 5% before entire pty wiped, probably woulda went far better with a full pty of blms possibly or the use of 2 items instead of 1, but anyway this is a good way to win if you're gonna mage it.
I know that when you use the item, the taru runs away and gets a defense minus. Does this just affect physical defense or does it affect magical too? Our group started playing around with an idea but it won't work unless his magical defense goes down as well.
Anyone know if it is repeatable?
