Next and last for some of you Holla is arguably the hardest one to kill. So... lets get with the details:
When: Friday midnight as usual?
Who: "Static" + Tsumau (pretty sure he wants in).
What: ENM for another nice 3k xp and hopefully another earring =D (I have 9700 gil for all of you, so make sure to bug me so I can give it to you). And of course we will also be fighting the lovely Holla boss.
Preparations:
A) Holla Boss: What to expect:
Special Attacks:
Trinary Absorption - Drain, one target.
Trinary Tap - Steals 3 status effects from whomever is targeted.
Empty Cutter - Damage attack, one target.
Negative Whirl - Damage attack, AOE.
Stygian Vapor - AOE Plague + hate reset.
Shadow Spread - AOE Curse + Sleep.
As you can see this one sucks... major balls. Now... as long as we have anima and use it effectively we will not have a problem at all. We do need to bring a few things; Poison potions (3 each should do it) so it doesn't sleep us with its AoE and Holy Water in case we get cursed.
We kicked ass last fight (Yay for perfect dodge and killing the ENM boss with 3hp left!! /grin) but lets go over a few things for this fight. Pretty much we go in and buff up, now... I recommend getting a couple or bar-spells on in addition to the regular buffs, reason is that this bastard steals our status effects, so instead of stealing shell and protect there is a chance that he will steal the useless bar spells. After buffing up rest for mp as always, pop in poison potions (and please as soon as poison wears off pop in another one) and go in voking like crazy. Obviously both tanks (Ric and Sehv) will not voke at the same time, more like voke, wait 15 voke again then both voke as soon as available (Hate reset sucks). Tanks if at all possible should drag the boss to the other side of the map (Thanks for trying 7 ^.^), that way its away from the mages and we have more chance it voke them back if they get to close. Obviously anima is a must. Since Ric is coming (I hope /grin) this thing should die pretty fast as he will do more damage than the Pld.
B) ENM: Same strategy as above (Including poison potions but no anima). Sad thing is that even though the ENM bosses are easier than the ENM we ALWAYS have more trouble killing the ENM boss. So we should also get terro anima since we can use it on the ENM guy in oh shit situations like we did last time. I think me and Tsumau used terro and it saved us a few precious moments. Hopefully we get one of those million gil earrings this time /grin. Oh... this one spawns little monster thingies too.
So... we need to farm anima, as usual help will be provided, just let me know and we help each other farm it, we don't want a repeat of the first ENM eh, no need to wait till the last moment to get it.
Now for static notes. Since Lugaid (who will hopefully still want to static) still needs to do the Promy's and Ric needs to do Mea we obviously have to do these runs again, yay! >.>. Since me and Ryichu are at level 33 (or almost 33 in his case I think) you should level the static to 30 then do the runs again for the nice extra xp. This should put you to 31 1/2 almost level 32 I think. Then you can continue leveling normally to catch up.
So yah... comments? Ideas? Suggestions? Etc.
And... well... let me know if Friday is good so I can let Tsumau know.
