This guide is old and there are multiple setups to do this event but still works none the less.

Job setup:
Party 1: PLD RNG RNG COR WHM BRD
Party 2: RNG RNG RNG COR WHM BRD
Party 3: RDM GEO BRD COR SMN RUN


T1: Broxa
Buff inside at entrance, have rng's and other jobs hug wall at entrance away from tunnel. Have 1 PLD pull NM to middle of entrance clearing and let rng's decoy. RDM and GEO run behind NM in the tunnel and take turns casting Impact then running out of casting range. Have everyone full attack while NM is casting. Easy fight ,2 mins. Blood pacts too when impact is casting by NM.

T2 Plaguevein bats:
Full Attack

T3 Hakawai:
SIlence for Blue !! Full Attack

T4 Ironbeak Inguza:
Poison Pots up, PLD's tank then turn for frigid shuffle.
Full Attack

T5 Podarge:
Use high tier ice magic to limit its moves. Don't WS during its TP moves.

Mega Boss: Cailimh
Have geo 2hr Indi-Failty at start of fight. @ start have Rngs 2hr in intervals of 30 seconds w/ decoy to have a smooth start. @ %75SMN can astral flow or save it and use @ 50% , cor's wild card at 50% as well.

Feel free to add anything. Found this way to be alot easier than other setups. Its flexible tho.

We beat this quite easily with a party of 6, def don't need a full 18.


Rng Rng Whm Cor Brd Pld. Cor was fully geared and helped dd.

Went again later to help get ppl some wins with Brd Rng Rng Cor Rng Rng | pld whm brd cor.

For the T1, we just had the whm use addle and spam t2 spells. It will reflect and take extra damage while casting, like mentioned, so save your ws for during casting.

For the T4, it's sleep/curse move can be avoided by standing 20.0 away from it. If curse move goes off, it needs to be sacced.

Didn't remove the aura off the mega boss. Not sure if this is ideal with melees. The dispel move is the only move he uses if you don't, and it's easy to deal with with just a pld.

Edited my original post.

We didn't do any sort of blizzard stuff on the harpy either. Just kept scherzo on the pld, and we were fine, outside one time when it was dispelled and wail hit for like 3500. Make sure no one is closer than 15.

I agree with Calipso.

Stone III worked perfectly well for us on Broxa. It is key to do regulated casting one second after he has reflected his last spell.

For Majarmi have your Paladin sub Rune Fencer, it gives a clear advantage for Hakawai & his Chainspell and for use on Cailimh.

On Cailimh obviously use Runes & job ability's though your ability's will be dispelled often.

The boss will consistently use the dispel move (Ive forgotten the name too), so your Support will need to use Shell V > Cure > Paralyna through out the course of the battle.

Without Rune fencer Paladin was taking 600 & with 240 a time.

ok i see the addle part, completely read over that and missed it. Pretty clever too, maybe 7 man w/ a geo w/ twilight to impact when addle is up. should die fast too.

For the tier 5, how do you prevent it from one shotting the pld (especially if you don't have tier 5 ice spells)?

Ice shot should work fine if COR's are up to par

I need to update my QD sets and my Ice Shots were doing 1500 damage, not sure if it should be substantially higher than that or not.

This was from experience outside, we didn't have a PLD, just a mnk as solo DD, he got killed by something and it came straight for me, so I just stood there shooting, doing Last Stands and Ice Shots until the MNKs weakness wore off, was fun.

Needed to be cured a lot mind.

Don't WS during its TP moves.
What happens if you do? does it reset the accumulative ice damage?

If that's the case then that might explain why ice seems ineffective for us @_@;

Like I said, we didn't even try blizzard anything. We heard about it but weren't really sure what it did so we just kinda ignored it.

A scherzo on the paladin was fine, just make sure brd is watching and reapplies when it gets dispelled. If he dies, shadowbind and raise, ours was able to tank easily enough while weakened.

For the most part we just let adds stay on the paladin through nms, but on harpy we killed them all before touching her.

This has not been our experience (18 man). I've seen different PLD take between 2-3k dmg with scherzo up. Shadowbind also didn't stick for us at all, but sleep was useful to a degree.

She's either very angry when you go in with 18, or our PLD's didn't notice scherzo being dispelled, despite insisting it was still up.

Either way, I'd also like to know the thoughts behind not WS'ing during TP moves.

Think she just derped a bit on the Shadowbind part, we've never had it stick on Harpy either. We just had our BRD Troubadour Lullaby it when I died that one time. And I haven't gotten 1-shotted yet by Ravenous Wail with Scherzo up, but I *have* fell to like 100 HP (which is why we get rid of adds before engaging). I use HP food also.

When T5 is using TP moves its evasion shoots up, but i'm pretty sure RNG's can still hit w/ songs rolls food and geo's eva down bubble. I tell everyone not to ws during tp moves but its bound to happen and not really noticable.

We have had Ravenous Wail do 3600 to our tank with Scherzo up, and somethign called Minstral Shriek for 4200+, again with scherzo

Is there confirmation that T5 Blizzard will actually proc the Celaeno? or is it just a theory?

Also, has anyone discovered any other gimmicks to proc the Apkallu? I know there is the Frigid Shuffle technique, but it usually still takes longer than hoped.

I have animations disabled and stuff so i've never personally seen a blue !!, but i can say that when substantial ice dmg is being dealt he doesn't use TP moves as often. That much is true. Shiva and good geo's make it work for bigger groups. On low man its prob best to just bead T5 out unless you want to go w/ 7 people and bring geo.
