How is a player supposed to beat maat now?
There is almost no equip on the auction house, let alone level 70 gear. You can get weapons with sparks but not armor.
Am I missing something here? Friend started playing a few days ago and they can't gear up to beat maat.

Doing it on whm for my alt in AF worked for me, the survival method, dont hit, just run around like a headless chicken.

Well you can do the AF quests. I was in mostly AF when I did Maat as MNK back in 2005.

Make sure all relevant combat/magic skills are capped, too. Using food can help as well.

I think all the Sparks armor is level 99, but anyone fighting Maat for the first time is capped at level 70.

I personally level WAR to 70, cap out G.AXE and Raging Rush him to the face for the first Maat fight on new characters.
why? because I am lazy, but WAR Maat is very very easy if you have capped g.axe skill.
But yes, AF is perfectly acceptable for Maat fight, in fact if you are a brave you will do it right at 65 in all AF
good luck!(1)

Had to fight Maat on a mule about a month ago. I did the fight as a level 70 monk and it was crazy easy. You can buy scrolls of protect and shell in adoulin and as people have suggested above wear AF.

09-14-2014 08:12 PM #10The point of the thread is that it would be nice to have an npc at the side of maat that you can purchase level 70 gear (rings/armors etc) with gil or sparks so new players can enjoy and fight maat properly.
If you can no longer fight maat properly and gear up etc what is the point of still having the fight there?(2)
