{Can I have it?} {Skillchain} {Party}?Follow

#1 Jan 27 2006 at 1:42 PM Rating: Decent
erm... yea... so anyways... no, this isn't a skill up pt... or a WSNM... I'm just lookin for 4 melee's and maybe a healer to assist me in putting together a neat lil video clip.

I need 4 melee's so I can make two seperate distortion or induration SC's. Bottom line is I'd like the closing hit to do quite a bit of damage so the SC closes for good damage. So far, so simple... I know... here's the tricky part...

I want two melee's to SC one mob and two other melee's SC a linked mob right next to each other. I want to Astral Flow and Diamond Dust on SC's and see if I can MB both mobs.

The mobs will most likely be rumble crawlers or helm beetles in the CN. As for my Astral Flow, I can get a yag drink and ether's np... but I want to use my Astral Pot before any SC is began so I can increase the damage Diamond Dust may do...

Soooo... anyone in? you'll be in a video (providing my PC doesn't lock up and crash in the middle of it)

Astral pot, eh Nebz? I take it you found a working strat for the 60 ENM then. Care to share?

Oh, and I don't have any melee jobs, but I may be able to find you some.

Krem,

I know I am not a damage heavy melee but I can do every Weapon skill for sword and I can take some damage making it a little easier down there. Let me know.

cool beans dahl :)... and Esdim... I kinda found one... well, won my last 2 out of 2 attempts at least.

Of course, we all know about summon avatar of the day and nuke w/ elemental IV BP asap. Run away to safe recasting spot. Once the BP is ready, I release and recast the avatar and rinse and repeat. When I have to recast an avatar, I have two mobs coming after me... the mannequin and the avatar... my avatar will attack whichever of the two is closest to me. After my avatar gets the attention of one mob, I retreat my avatar so he auto-attacks the other mob. Elemental IV BP again and run to the gates where you entered (3rd safe casting spot).

Repeat again. However, this time, after you do the elemental IV BP, instead of just running away, you want to retreat your avatar and make the mannequin follow you and the avatar to the opposite side of the moblin. Reason being is if you just run off to a safe casting spot, once you release the avatar, the mobs will come running back and your new casted avatar will engage the moblin as he will be the closest mob. If you move the mannequin to the opposite side of the moblin (put the mannequin between your safe casting spot and the moblin so to speak), and reassault, you should be safe next time you cast an avatar and don't have to worry about him hitting the moblin.

Thursday night I had to use my Astral Flow cause I had ~70 MP left and the mannequin still had 300 HP at least. So I popped off Astral Flow, changed to my V Cloak and popped some ethers... When I was ready, I released and recasted then astral flow and Tidal Wave. Maybe the mannequin ran out of MP, I'm not sure... but I didn't see his avatar any more... and luckily the moblin was busy rolling dice in the background and didn't get hit by the tidal wave. If he would have, it would have been interesting. It would have been one mob vs one mob... but I don't think I'd have the MP or time enough to finish the moblin.

Hope that helps Esdim... I just like this pot cause I don't ever see any smn's with it equip'd... ever.

H2H {owner}{do you need it?} :-b

I stay pretty busy any more but it would be kewl to help you out. I've got WS for all sides of the spectrum so just let me know.
#10 Jan 31 2006 at 1:01 PM Rating: Decent
Ok, so far, I've got the following...

Nebz, SMN/WHM.
Tamika, BRD/WHM (will be healing and keeping up ballad's)
Leetfade, MNK/???
Dahlgren, PLD/??? (unless you got a nin to 30 and would like to do rdm/nin for TP, SC and Refresh purposes)

With RDM refresh and both ballad's from a bard... I can get 8mp per tic. So when I use Astral flow, if I have all three buffs, I wouldn't need to use any drinks or ethers to get enough MP for second or third Astral Flow blasts.

sooo, I need two more... perhaps for the second mob...

Oh, and leet, no worries bout keepin busy... I'd like to set a date/time to do this and should take no more than 30-45 min as we can just go to crawlers' nest or garbaige sitinhell to get it done. So far, Wednesday, Friday and possibly sunday are looking available for me... Sunday is likely to change, but I think Friday night might be best? or Sat. morning/afternoon?

My Ninja is sitting at 26, I think that is where I got bored with it. I need to level it to 37 but I can't work up the motivation to do so, the job is real slow.......
#13 Jan 31 2006 at 1:47 PM Rating: Decent
My NIN sub is only 19, but I will help if available and needed. Please give me a yell to see if I am online, as I have been really busy in RL lately and playtime is sporatic.
#14 Jan 31 2006 at 2:42 PM Rating: Decent
ooo, goodie... looks like we can use nyru as rdm/nin and dahl as pld/XXX... so that leaves one spot open for another melee... perhaps SAM (katana or g. katana) or BST (w/ axes)... maybe even another SMN if they'd like to give their BP up for the sake of a SC...

I can Dark Skill Chain with a Sam if you find one. Seraph Blade to Tacki: Gekko I believe, Talk to Kyrin, she can break out her Sam and deal some damage if she isn't busy.
#17 Feb 01 2006 at 1:33 PM Rating: Decent
ermmm... yea, ice SC's please... or whatever the mob may be weak to, but both SC's have to be same elemental base... and I don't have any dark based avatars, so that'd be a bust... :-\

what would work tho... with those that have replied yet so far....

Howling Fists (Leetfade) -> Double Slap (Ratatapa's Shiva)

also

Power Slash (Dahlgren's PLD) -> Dancing Edge (Nyru)

Both will make Distortion. :)

If that works for everyone, we just need to set date and time for this lil event...

Power Slash, is that Great Sword, if so I need to Skill up my G. Sword.
#20 Feb 01 2006 at 2:22 PM Rating: Decent
NOTE!!!

That last post was from Dahlgren

He is my coworker and is far to busy being an idiot to remember to log me off when posting.

So Dahlgren is interested in this thread and all about it.
NOT ME!
#21 Feb 01 2006 at 2:41 PM Rating: Decent
LOL@Sin...

and yes Dahlgren, it's lvl 40 g-sword... if you need help, lemme know... I'll pt with you so I can keep hate of the mobs that would give you skill ups... that way you can use a job that is a little weaker than a 75 pld and in turn get more hits and skill ups per mob.

If it is level 40 I am set, I think my G. Sword is 137 currently. I'll check tonight to be sure but I am almost positive, if that is the case, I am set to go.

I rarely check Alla anymore so you'd have to send me a tell.

FYI, Dark (level 3 version) incorporates: Water, Ice, Dark, and Earth. So not only would a level 3 look kewler in your vid, but it will still incorporate the element you're looking for on your MB.

I believe most beetles/crawlers are also weak to thunder which would open up L3 Light (Fire, Thunder, Wind, Light). I can do Asuran Fists for Dark or Dragon Kick for Light.

As far as subs, I have NIN (28), THF (good for Dragon Kick and at 50), SAM (30 but enough for meditate), and of course WAR (37).

Just let me know.

Nebz, did you ever get this movie thing done? If so, can we see it?

If not, let me know if my mediocre RDM can help.
