Easy solo as SAM/WAR on Very Easy (lol 200 hallmarks) with Trusts.
Used August, Koru-Moru (RDM), Yoran-Oran (WHM), Tenzen II and Semih (RNGs)
Didn't see a single level up using this setup. And I took out the bombs as soon as they appeared. Fight took about 4 minutes from entry to NM defeated.

Is there a way to avoid the adds spamming Perfect dodge?
VD 13min 30sec Whm Run Blu Nin Sam Rdm.
Blu+Run Did NM+bombs, while Nin and Sam killed adds.
Sam ended on 56% of the parse with sc dmg.
Distract2-3 and Dia is needed cause of high eva mobs.

Hmm, I actually like that config. Bring a RUN that can hybrid set and open SC, have 2 DD's on adds. We were doing RUN, DRK, THF, BLU and 3 stepping (another step would've done us better for sure) with RDM and WHM backline. I forget what our clear time was, but probably in the 10-15min range. Just did the one and we *** up a bomb and everyone else went to bed, lol.

Okay, did Adds first. They Will use PD once, and not spam it. Took 13:30min on VD. Just take melee, SC the *** out of it and good it is. RDM is super nice for Sleep and enfeebs.
off topic.... but is ur profile a woman tied up on a table taking a dump? :S

Question on geos. Everything mentions geo buffs causing the level up. What about geo debuffs on monster? I've got a geo mule that isn't good for much else and would still like to bring if I can.

Immune to all debuffing Geomancy, and buffing Geomancy will reset the boss's HP.
Helps to actually read the thread that was linked:
Quote:

I skimmed it but missed that one line. Thanks for being a jerk Arislan, it really helped. I saw where it said immune, but multiple times saw people reference that buffs cause level up.
Pup tank with regulator and disruptor works fine too. Was able to steal attributes and dispel its buffs

Appears to steal quite a bit of 1 stat. Almost 180 taken from boss on VE solo.
For Terror, is there anything you can use to reduce it?
Barstone+Barpetrify
or
Barthunder+Barpetrify
?

BG wiki says Faze is a gaze attack so I think you can turn to avoid it. You could also use Founder's Greaves on WAR/DRK/PLD/SAM/DRG.
kibosh with def down hits for like 4k on VD lol
How are people dealing with HP Steal Instantly KOing the tank on VD? Like tank is at 3K HP with cure skin, boss does HP Steal, tank dies with no damage being displayed.
And ... we had adds spamming PD while the MB was still up on VD...

Won numerous VD runs. Setup was WHM/SMN/DNC/SAM/SAM/WAR. Summoner does all the fancy buffs, Warrior does full break, Dancer does steps/haste samba, and the White Mage subs Black Mage for sleepga.

That doesn't help, there are two things that are making this hard.
#1 HP Steal instant KO
#2 Adds spamming PD after several have been killed
Need those solved.

Terror is ice based so you'd want barblizzard and high meva but strongly doubt you could resist it reliably (just like the petrification effect off last month) - especially since you can't use geo bubbles
founderer's greaves + Sagasinger, if they add up you could become immune to terror.
What I do is cureskin bomb whatever dd has hate and we burn the boss first. We don't have a tank anyway so damage keeps pumping even if someone gets one shot. After the main guy dies you win even if you have to wipe and recover.

Ok so killing the main boss first doesn't cause the adds to go ballistic?

Debufff resists cap at 90% from what I remember.
Anyone know what the blue proc does when you let sleeping mobs get hit by an exploding mine?

They are no longer sleeping...

anyone have or know of a addon that can let you target mobs as a command like by name? for the life of me, I have issues fumbling around 5ppl and 5 mobs to target the bomb to kill it.
