Lol, brb checking DQ guides

There is a gimmick to it.

If you have Reraise up his TP move (which at the moment appears to ONLY be at set %, so 100% and 75%, likely 50 and 25 as well) will remove reraise instead of kill everyone. For death the standard spell we were doing fine on it using light shot to interrupt until one got resisted. So maybe have a tank using a death resistance set, keep addle/paralyze on, and try to sleep it to interrupt it. Wonder if RUN could lux x3 and resist it, too.

Untested as far as I've seen. If Hymnus works it all gets much easier.

When you lose on hard, Iroha says, "Come, Master, There is no need to go easy on me."

Yup.

If we know what element the KO move is, Carol might be promising.

Funny when you see players within the first day get a drop easier than the content it actually comes from. Just reinforces in my mind that they know omen bodies are horribly rare, so much that they have to add them to things like ANV keys and AMAN costs too make up the difference. Square is a bunch of clowns...

Anyways, this looks like the new ANV keys event, just doubles as a fight and Gamble now.

Know what would be popular regardless of what the treasure pool was?

A "Beat The Augs Outta Oseem" event. Those who deal a certain amount get q freebie Techniques roll.

So if I’m reading this right technically the mimic is punishing people who don’t use RR in a Bcnm? Finally I’m not the only one using RR buwhaha

I'm just disappointed that the treasure chests didn't drop logs a la Voidwatch.

Also this is how anyone that plays monk feels. I keep hitting the lever and monk still isn't great.


You guys just wait it keeps hitting that lever it will be an after glow monk with stats of which you have never seen!

Mars Orb

Venery Bows
Worn Sack of Duskslit +1 Stones
Aquamarine
Frayed Sack of Plenty
Square of Serica Cloth

Not exactly worth it being time gated as much as it is.

Exited before I got the mimic.

There's a Terminal Chest (gold) in the centre. You can check that at any time to leave with what you've got.

Ouch, what a waste of loot xD.

I've been stopping on 3-4 boxes, as I'm too afraid of death box popping. xD
