I've been meaning to try this for awhile now, but I kept putting it off till I finished my Almace. Finally gave it a shot... and it was pretty easy.

I had to trim the video as closely as possible, and run it at x1.25 speed to get it below 15 mins so I could upload it. -_-

In before someone calls me gimp for not blinking.. I use Blinkmenot and silence. All you're gonna see is my idle/running gear.

Clear time 20:42


Afterthoughts.

Looking back on this solo, and during it for that matter, I noticed a lot of things that could have been done better.

Firstly, subjob. There wasn't really any need for /rdm. Didn't need refresh or fast cast. Probably should have gone /whm. Haste and -na spells would have been useful. I was counting on blocks preventing all the ws inflicted statuses, and completely forgot about the ninjutsu enfeebles. Nins are... annoying.

Red curry bun instead of yellow.

Powder boots weren't really needed to pull, just fun.

I tried to use fealty for Mijin, but it got para'd anyway. Should have saved it for charm, assuming it'd block it.

Wasn't very careful about the hume's shadows, lost two chants to them. /stupid.

Could have slept up 300% TP to start for lvl 3 Aftermath.. And used TP wing for self light.

I was switching to a WS DMG+ sword and using atonement during PD and invincible to maintain some DMG out put. But now that I think about it, I probly would have got more DMG overall out of waiting and saving 200~300% TP for lvl 2~3 Aftermath.

All in all, I went in kinda half-assed and kicked the ***outta it. I might try it again with some improvements sometime. Try for a ~15 min clear time so I can make a video that's not sped up.

That is pretty impressive. I hadn't seen it yet, any other jobs that can do it that I'm missing?

Considering how they never really were a danger, maybe best to keep them all(or at least all but PLD since he can cure) alive and work them down to low HP then kill them all.

The Shield Mastery would give you an edge on TP, right?

I would think that too many of the mobs do annoying things, if they were just physical attacking mobs you could throw phalanx on and most of em would just hit you 0 and not get any tp out of it limiting any danger of mass tp attacks while feeding you plenty of tp but para blind slow and magical damage would probably just be aggravating and make you waste your time attempting to cast and getting paraed.

Watching vids like this makes me want to level pld.
But not having an ochain would kinda suck..
And then I dont wanna level pld anymore.

Sorry, what? Not sure if you're referring to the RDM solo up there or my solo vid.
