Beyond Infinity

4 bst blu and whm. 1/1 just have pets tank pretty much straight foward. with gooey.

Just did the bc pld (ochain/almace) mnk (emp) me drg a blu spamming headbut and 2x whm pretty straightforward fight 1/1 ,
Worst thing was getting the item it's like dragons aery all over again 63 people in the wadi at last count lol.

MNK MNK MNK MNK WHM SMN... Flawless victory!!

2 minute fight

800 damage Asuran Fist spam is the way to go.

Leave is to SE to put a BS fight like this in the game where 3 or 4 jobs get singled out as the ones everyone wants and everyone else gets effed.

I don't have an O-Chain or an Aegis...so no one wants my Paladin. No AF3 on my NIN or THF yet...so no go there. I have to decide on if I am going to spend gil I don't really have to spare and bring out the 75 MNK for marathon EXP to get this cap done...or tell SE once again that they aren't getting any more money from me for this game, since they are too stupid to learn their lesson. One option looks better than the other.

It's prime time for everyone to have like 1 of each type of job(5+). In most cases almost everyone has one of the most useful jobs for the fight. If ya don't get it up or finish it 'OR' try and make up your own method! Soon enough there will be alot of Lv99s willing to help smash the fight for you. So the fight will be a slightly less of a burden. If you're willing to wait that is.

I am not waiting and I refuse to be like these gimpy newbs who pay for their levels.

If SE can't make a balanced quest, than they can go to hell.

Pay?

Yeah, I come back to this game to see a bunch of clowns who give some greedy Warrior or RMT gil so they can sit there and go from level 30 to 95 in one day while retaining their wonderful level 30 skill levels, no clue how to play the job and just leech their way through the game.

The point of a limit break quest isn't suppose to be about who gear *** the most, it was suppose to be about advancing your level on your own merits. I never recall needing 6 peeople to beat Maat.

My groups first attempt was with 2x smn, 1xbst, 1xrdm and 1 other job i cant remember and we got destroyed when he started using final heaven, asuran fists and such. 2nd attempt was with 5xbst/nin and 1xrdm/whm and we won, he made short work of our pets, so we all had to resummon at least once, so that seemed to work.

came a long a group just to try how long we could last.
Well he opened with a howling fist for 1,6k on my ***. that's that then.
i felt the love for mnk in this fight ....

Did this fight 2 times just now.

SMN WHM BLU MNK MNK MNK first time, was easy.
SMN WHM MNK MNK MNK + naked mule that did nothing, was really easy again.
So yeah, PD -> zerg = stupidly easy

I'll be doing this later today, from what I'm understanding SMN is a must for perfect defence, tried this yesterday and he just went around 1 shotting everyone with WS.

How is it unabalanced?

I went and farmed items with 6 people. We chatted and griped about the drop rates. It was a social experience.

Then, some of us changed jobs. We went PLD, twashtar DNC (me), DNC, BST, RDM, WHM.

We won with very little difficulty with me and the BST doing most of the DD, the WHM and 2nd DNC focusing on heals, and the RDM enfeebling / stunning.

We used the enfeebling item and got a huge laugh out of how silly it was.

Went a 2nd time, and helped a much less prepared and more averagely geared group. Setup was WHM WHM PLD DNC BLU NIN. This fight went less smoothly, but we also didn't use an enfeebling item. I died twice, once to an 1800 asuran fists and once when I used trance to save the party from certain doom.

NEITHER PLD HAD OCHAIN OR AEGIS AND WE DID JUST FINE.

We worked together well, people did their jobs, and we won. Isn't that what this game is ultimately about?

I did it twice with me as SAM/THF, DRG/THF, PLD/BLU, THF/NIN, WHM/SCH and RDM/DRK. The Dragoon and I both used Polearms because damage from GK really doesn't cut it, he turned out to be weaker to piercing. Slow and steady, TA off the tank as much as we could (and it helps to have a really good tank at that who can hold hate and take the damage). When he 2hred the Redmage did chainspell stun and then I 2hr and unloaded on him.

After we got the feel for it the first time, the second time was cake. We did have to pay for a 2hr reset after the first time, though. :)

Teamwork? in my ffxi? what's this you talk about.

Won with 4 Bst, 1 Smn, Whm.

Used Olde Rarib tail, Mulsims, etas and 2 hours. 1 Bst went down but RR'd. Bst's melee'd (very dangerous) and used Gooey/Nursery. If you decide to melee, /nin will save your ***. I do believe someone used the rarab tail when he 2 houred. Wouldn't say fight was easy at all.

Meleeing is dangerous. Pulling hate off pet will likely kill you. Use RR items, Twilight and if worse comes to worse, try to kite him during his 2 hour.

Sketchy win. I'll take it.

just won with 4 bsts 2 smns - Gooey + Garuda, bsts all engaged as well and used a few Rewards/mulsims

didn't even notice its 2 hour - no deaths - no kitting - very easy win

I was there, can second this. 0 death, didnt notice his 2 hour. Had to convert. Ran low on mp.

he haves over 60+ dawn musulm of inventory space, it's quite possible

Time limit is 10 minutes, however.

I was under the impression that enspells didn't accrue any additional enmity. I suppose you could have meant the acc effect on enlight but then the pld could have just used marinara pizza instead of curry.

We did PLD BST BLU SMN WHM WHM. 1/1, was pretty easy. PLD didn't have Ochain/Aegis, and SMN didn't use PD. I'm not sure if anyone used the enfeebling item because I was too busy watching HP, but I'm pretty sure they didn't.

We tried again for some other members, this time as PLD BST SMN THF WHM WHM. Failed this time, but I think it was because we were getting sleepy. Fight went pretty smooth until he 2hr'd, at which point the PLD went down, followed by the rest of us, and we eventually timed out. Still think we could have won if we were more alert, LOL.

just completed as drg/sam/whm/pld/war/nin, was cake, pld was well geared tho, had ochain and D-ring and was lv 99 already, he took almost zero damage the entire fight (1x SC caused me (whm) to use cure 5 once and used cure 4 maybe 3-4x). lost the nin and drg at one point when they pulled hate from pld, sam never pulled hate (used GK and damage was pretty much crap) took 6 mins, very easy...para from whm def helps! pld was the only to 2-hr...if you dont have pets or alex handy and well geared pld def seems needed (dont need ochain but id say a good ~30%+ -pdt would be needed w/o it) our pld had -13% pdt only but ochain made up for the rest

Frankly speaking, I would rather win it with some fun, chit chat, team work. I know many folks have different views with me, but that is their choice.

Oh and I made a little bit of fortune selling Dawn Muslums to BSTs who are rushing for the BC. I would not say I made a lot of gil (about 300K), but money is helpful to buy Ninjustsu tools and potions :).

From what I saw with Sudden lunge on blu, I never saw a flat out resist, but it seemed the duration of the effect lowered each time to the point it was like just casting the spell stun.

First time I used it, lasted around 8-10 seconds, but each use after saw shorter and shorter durations. CS stun seems to be viable if you are going to use Item and zerg rush just to keep him in place though.

Win 1/1 PLD BST WHM SMN BRD MNK
at 50% BRD and SMN and MNK used 2h and zerg. that taru hit PLD for 0-10 points of damage,
and Asuran Fist/Dragon kick 30-42 DMG. (Aegis, D.ring)
