Hmm? Description of Leg Sweep says chance of stunning scales with TP, not duration (unless you're talking about the higher chance of avoiding partial resists).

I wasn't sure where else to post this and I didn't want to start a new thread so I'll post here. Gorpa will not accept a NQ piece of Ambuscade gear with 5 metals and give me the +1 version, and I do not currently already have the +1 in question in my inventory/storage anywhere. I'm trying to trade NQ Ayanmo body along with 5 metals for the +1 version and he won't accept the trade, nothing happens when I try. If anyone could offer any suggestions, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Metal only works for the original 5 ambuscade voucher sets. Knowing SE, they'll probably have a separate material for upgrading the ambuscade token sets.

I see... I guess the statement "The process is identical for any piece of armor, regardless of armor slot, for each stage process." section on bgwiki for Gorpa-Masorpa should be changed to reflect this. =/

Easiest way for the for people struggling is: PLD SMN WHM BRD GEO DD. Summoner puts up EA for Excal, BRD puts up Schzero and goes to town. BRD sleeps all at start. Joke fight on VD, mobs should still be asleep with Carn. Geo does frailty, torpor, fury, entrust str. RDM Healer would work best Dia3, distract etc. 5 minutes fight tops. Good luck, that's how I did it before I got "winded". Shout out to all the cool people that don't steal people's ***lmao.

ES + Dream Flower is reliable it's just not nearly as long as BRD with Carn, obviously. I have used it on D when the party did not have a sleeper (didn't need it). Can kill a good portion of them off if puller has them ready.

Really late reply, but yeah, just aggro > Foil.

If your team isn't bothering with sleep, then Battuta after Foil. Or if Excalibur pops, you'll want to Battuta for sure (max parry set will save your life). This is a great opportunity to floss those Turms Mittens!

Foil is enough to keep hate, for the most part. You'll want to keep it up to protect against WS spam. It's not a good idea to do too much casting/swapping, since you can get hammered in precast/midcast sets with everything hitting you.

If you don't trust your WHM, sub a job where you can Erase def-down. If you get hit w/ a WS that passes through Foil w/ Def-down on, you'll probably die, especially if it closes an SC.

Tenebrae runes are what I go with. The main NM will Aspir you dry, even w/ Lux runes up, so good to have the option of Pulsing your MP back. Light-resistance also good versus Guttler and Excalibur.

Save One For All for Kikoku (~50%-ish). Pflug > Mag Eva Set > Charm Set before pulling Guttler.

While your DD's are killing the last fomor, pop Swordplay and cast Temper... you should have full 3000 TP from all the stray hits and Tactical Parry returns. The second the last Fomor dies, drop a fat Reso/Dimidiation (should land for 50-99k) on the main NM and watch as your DD's weep because you stole the most satisfying part of the fight away from them. :)
