BREWFACE BREWFACE

Are you derf's brother?

That'd be so freakin awesome, but i highly doubt it.

someone said something about side or butt tanking him also stun every thing for him to lvl I have to get 75 of these also for my daurdabla not looking forward to it lol someone said they kill it with 4 ppl but i also saw them whipe to nq khimaira before so i dunno our ls kill nq khimaira with np at all does apademak actually drop horns now? like when u brew he drop at least one or he drop two commonly? I know dragua dropped 2 scales very commonly with brew helped someone finish theres lately it was good drops also got it done in a night ^^

Stun all thunder spells and don't die, both cause him to level (unlocking Fulm). It's possible to dodge Lithic Breath by moving to the side but you have to be quick. Don't have to dodge it but certainly helps.

He turns to use Lithic Breath so there's not much point in tanking him on any particular side. Droprate was patched, could do with 3 + THF but you'd need to be on the ball.

We'll i see trolls are still alive and well on this forum. I've only fought him once non-brew and it wasn't in my ls. Seemed all his -ga3s and tp moves(fulm) hit for a ton of dmg, i didn't notice it leveling up any either. But thanks for the answers guys that actually answered them lol

Stunners

Minimal issue to 4box with WHM/SCH BLM/WHM MNK/WAR THF/BLM(I use stun bots, get over it). If not multiboxed, there's 0 reason a 4man group should have any trouble without stunbots(all moves have sufficient readying time).. just make sure to have two stunners.

I'm sure BLM/WHM THF/BLM and NIN/WAR is viable for an absolute lowest-possible deal, but would require more attention and be a longer fight. You want two stunners to catch all thunder4/thunder5 and lithic breaths. You can let fulmination go off, the height difference with mages up at #7 and melee at the bottom of the ramp is sufficient to avoid it. If you use a THF/BLM or other stunner that doesn't have native dark skill, you're going to want triple m.acc atmas(ultimate/merciless matriarch/impregnable tower) and ascetics available. I find that if I buy an ascetics, use it, and buy another the combination will last long enough to run there and stun until it dies.

Lithic breath can be avoided pretty easily. WHM + BLM + DD should have no problem. You can just run circles around the NM if you want to play it 100% safe and the breath move won't hit you. He's really quite easy if all his spells are stunned.

I did this with some JPs about 5 times and tanks just tanked its *** and they had about 3 or 4 stunners on a cycle while procing yellows. Was simple about 10 min fights trying to get yellows and everything. Helped out the thfs SATA too i guess

Also everyone knows that if you run in a circle, its evasion +25, so I fully support this strat.

god I hope this catches on so the next DNC I see trying to solo something and holding up a line of people, I'll at least be amused.

Whats a good job to brew him on?

Cor with wildfire

too bad I dont have Cor >.< What about BLU with Charged Whisker? Anyone try that?

lol

Don't tank in ninja chainmail+1...

Lightning based magic heals it and causes it to level up, followed by fulmination which'll cause it to pretty much pick your tank off due to the long stun and level up from killing you and using fulmination again ad nauseum *takes deep breath*

I havent had the fun of fighting him yet, was just curious to see if anyone has successfully brewed him on what job. I need the horns, jewels and the neck piece looks pretty nice aswell.

Sanguine Blade. 2-3shot, best you can probably get if no Wildfire.

Thanks for the info /cheers. Just wasnt sure if blm or blu was going to be better to brew.

What set up do you use for sanguine blade?

Was gonna ask the same thing, str and mnd are mods iirc and the ws is magical. Better to go 50/50 or str over mnd?

Int and mab I'd like to think.

If thats the case, I got a good build on my blu.

If you're brewing you don't have to worry about stats since you're set at cap. Toss on some MAB and some Dark Elem DMG+ and you're set, yeah?
