This. This.

And bard harp is only other... but yeah. Please tell me how easy it is to get colourless souls. I dare you.

Could we at least agree that the phrase "casually making an 85 Empyrean" is a little misleading, because there is a huge difference between trying to make a La Theine Empyrean two hours at a time and trying to make a Tahrongi?

Cause if you haven't, please do before you tell me it is easy. Sounds like you're duoing and Dboxing (so 4 manning). Nevermind that when I have to pet swap stuff would be going yellow and some arse like you would be likely to snag it.

Rorien and I both leveled BST originally so we could solo/duo NMs. At the time I also leveled SMN for the same reason Later on we got mules (his g/f's character and one for my wife if she ever decides to give the game a shot)

So yes soloed them.

Is it practical? No.
Is it efficient? No.
Is it possible? Yes, even in nonbest gear/atma it just costs more gil.

For T2 Titan can be soloed with yuly. Seen it before. Garuda can be soloed by SMN. Seen it and done it for fun.

For T3 MNK + WHM or THF + WHM is easy (decent MDT for swapping into is about all you need that's pricey) but requires a duo. Sorry haven't done it solo personally or seen anyone solo without a brew. That said I could see Leviathan being soloed or Ifrit but it probably requires good gear and lots of resources.

Edit: I take that back, bar bad luck period since you can Miga the 2hour and backtank until recast if you're that worried about dying.

Did they change Leviathan so it does the 2hour besides as a just before death move?

Haven't fought him in awhile actually, last time I remember taking it from a nin who wiped (mule whm was dead and mule blm was getting beat on when it went yellow) so I figured it was to 2hour... Now I'm starting to doubt it was...

My shell has like 6-9 people on at a time, 3 of those not even at level cap at any given time. And then half of the rest who are at cap are too busy helping themselves to work on other people's crap. And despite what people say about these weapons being soloable, I just don't see myself taking down a lot of them given I don't already have the best gear etc. I mean maybe when you're a nin with Kannagi working on another weapon they are "soloable" with a D-boxed whm... but yeah, doesn't seem realistic for an average, casual player.

It's actually kind of frustrating to see people who have a lot of resources talk about how easy it is to get an empyrean. It isn't that easy for an average player in a small shell with other casual players.

Just to elaborate in what he said about soloing. I have seen quite a few Japanese ninjas solo farming briareus pop items and briareus himself. And I do mean SOLO. I wouldn't do it myself though cause ninja doesn't have all red procs and because I have had briareus use his two hour on us 5 times in one fight. I have never seen anyone solo Sobek though.

Assuming /war and halloween event polearm Ninja can get 11/13 with staff merits/the staff skill Hachimaki. /Dnc is a little under half of them if I remember right.

For Bri fight NIN/DNC shouldn't have any TP moves go off. Keep Stutter Step capped on him and Violent Flourish when he readies any TP move. Even with a NIN and THF on him he didn't gain enough TP to spam moves faster than the 30 sec recast on VF. I don't ever recall the Stun not landing out of 100 helms, missed a few steps but not VF.
