Hi everyone, I was bored and wanted to share some infos.
I saw Mischief way to do 1-5-B Marjami Ravine Delve, with 3SCH + GEO, and thought it can be fun to make a topic with unusual setups to break delve.

I did Bee + Tree runs with a setup I call superCOR, the concept is to use 3+ CORs as main DD and buffers, so you can get 6+ rolls which make them incredibely strong.

I recorded Mega-Bosses fight if you bored too and wanna watch :

Wopket :

So feel free to share your (working) unusual setups here.

Not exactly an unusual set up or new I did this quite a few months ago in some very quick runs and I know other people did this before me. It's not done that much because well people won't differ much from the norm which is a shame really since this set up is a lot of fun. We took the bee down with 3 cors and a Sam in just under 1min and Wopket died in around 4-5mins again same set up.

We were considering a 6x RDM Tojil run... I think I'll round up the RDM team and let people know how that goes. :D

Don't wanna throw cold water here but even Delve II predates the WS update so DD selection really doesn't matter.

I would be interested to see what people could do with 1 non-WHM main job healer and/or no buff jobs.

Did Bee+2 with SCH+GEO duo, had a GEO mule too but i wasn't keeping his buffs up very well. Obviously room for improvement, bring a DD as third and easily add more NMs.

Cool to be posting different party combos than the norm, keeps the fun and variety ingame. The geo and 3xsch vid doing bird delve was nice to see too. I'd like to see more.

While I agree I've seen this done in one other vid somewhere. A lot of people haven't. Which is why he's called it unusual. And bringing the fact that other setups work, to the wider player base can only be good for everyone right?

My friends and I take SAM, COR, COR, GEO, GEO, RDM a lot. We've also replaced SAM with BLU in that situation, and done that with 5/6 of these delves.

We've done All T1 delves and Yorcia with RDM SAM GEO.

We bringed THF into delve before it was pimped out too, as well as bringed a DD RDM (Shoutout to Dj for keeping up on parse and surpassing one of the SAMs lol)

Yes and no our Wopket was a lot easier and a lot quicker than the ls's Tojil runs but do they still do only Tojil? Yes they do. Do they only take 2 MNKs and a SAM as a DD? Yes they do. Does it puds me off? Yes it does. This thread as epic as it may be is not going to get people to take anything other than the cookie cutter set up.

Well with WS update Blu can close/ surpass (some SAM) good geo cor brd whm and u can take pretty much any slashing and own wopket.

6x geo would be interesting to see.

We had our fair share of fun, "Bring whatever" & goofy Delves.

- Tojil with 2x RNG and PLD a long while back
- Tojil with WAR WHM BRD SCH
- NoStunBee with 2x RNG MNK because I brought /WHM sub on accident
- Shouting for "No SAM allowed" to poke some fun at the SAM only shouts
- Shouting for people in Eminence gear

At this point I am pretty convinced the only reason noone has cleared a Delve with an all melee WHM party yet is that there are like a max of 5 WHMs left in FFXI.

Need to tojil with Tups SCH, Laev BLM, Nirv SMN as melees, Carn BRD, Yag WHM, and Idris GEO as support, and just all melee. But i'll never see them all online at the same time.

A friend of mine is trying to convince me I might like WHM if I can DD with it....


...yeah, still probably not.

White Mage Challenge sounds sorta fun, though.

Nice videos. Thabks for sharing. But wouldn't you take damage if after you've beaten the mob and it lands on you? Just food for thought. :D

Unacceptable, fine you will be regulated to Blu/sch main heal in the x6 blu runs!

Can geo be subbed effectively?

Not at all. All three major buff jobs are terribly gimped when subbed. They all suffer from no availability of +potency gear, whether that's skill, +songs/rolls/geomancy, having the potency of a lvl 49 character, and losing access to all additional buffs. Brd one song because of no instrument, Geo only Indi spells because no bell for Geo spells, and Cor one roll cause reasons.

Off topic, I'm gonna make Murgleis.
