Feedback: Level Break Quest

[Glacont]

It's helpful to level more than one job, because chances are events will call for certain set-ups outside the ones You may favor. Those very jobs You level does not require that they be top notch in gear slot by slot, that's a misconception, but rather keep them in decent shape and up to date on spells; This way You have more options if you are ask to tank, heal, or You just want to solo for w/re reason. I myself with My shell did the LB as (MNKx3 SMN BLU) I was one of the monks. A job ppl don't normally see Me on, but I understand there are times when I have to change job class to achieve the outcome. I do know what You're going through, but if You give it a chance and level more jobs You won't feel the fustration You're going through now.

And for the record I am a Uko WAR /Masa Sam, the BLU is a Mand THF/Alam , The Other Monk is a APoc & Cala DRK, the third Monk is curruntly trying to decide if He wants a relic or mythic polearm. Sometimes You have to bite the bullet, and venture forth on the best jobs possible to obtain that 'win' [The win is all that matters] then return to Your home turf. GL on whichever path You choose.

What jobs do you have leveled? I went as DRG and it wasn't too bad, nowhere near as bad as old un nerfed CoP Airship fight was, by far the most fun expansion the game has had.

[Evandis]

The jobs I have leveled now is irrelevant. This is purely feedback. I already have the win.

Calling people names isn't going to make your feedback seem like it came from a mature person.

I think the time limit should have been 15 minutes to 20 minutes to allow for more versatility, but you are not required to have a conventional setup in order to win. I was surprised to see my biggest nukes on Black Mage doing less than 100 damage; however, I soon discovered that I can spam Bio II for over 50 points of damage consistently, and that is pretty good damage there even if I went into the fight with the standard PLD, WHM, SMN, WAR, BST setup.

Well it's official. Been trying to get into a group tonight and EVERY single one of them was MNK onry. WAR SAM BLU DRK PLD RDM all geared with WAR BLU RDM being ridiculously geared, but they only wanted MNK.

This is why SE shouldn't of made it this hard of a fight, cause now it's gonna be a huge PITA to get done.

I think the issue is not that the fight can't be done with other jobs - it is that players will demand only certain jobs if those jobs offer the best chance at success.

In these cases, making a group oneself is often ideal. Honestly, 2 Mnks with Asuran fists and their 2hr up and an Alex Smn can carry 3 Anybodies in the other slots so most groups shouting for Mnks and Smns are the Anybodies looking to be given an easy win. It's not a bad idea either.

I'm not sure if no one realized the fact that Evandis is pretty much a class-A troll about this genkai either. Just a heads up. They registered solely to trolllolol the other thread that was made about the limit break. When that thread died, he made this one. 2+2=4.

I'm a bit confused....the OP was on 12/15, complaining about this fight and having only a 75 MNK...yet , the profile shows 99MNK ??!!

Just did this fight on my gimped 92 MNK....with a ragtag team of misfits. I didn't even really lok at the jobs everyone got on, as I was scrambling to get off DRG and on to MNK and get my CS and tail--think we wound up with PLD, BST, DRK, MNK, MNK, SCH. Most of us had mediocre gear--not even +2 empy armors for most of us. Half off us were 92/93. We took 5 olde rarab tails, walked away with at least two unused. 4 used up a stack of sleep pots for TP via opo neck before we went in. PLD pulled him, we kept tagging him with Chi Blast to nerf TP gain, everone used multi-hit WS as we got TP. PLD held him to about 50%, then he started getting nasty so we started popping the tails in sequence like we used to do for the CoP fights. We'd keep cut him off to beat on him a little till to build TP and the DRK would stun him so we could fire off WS if we had TP. 6:47 was our clear time....kinda took our time and just beat him down. Wasn't any special job combination that got us the win--it was our team working together to get the job done.

We were all surprised (and a bit disappointed) to be honest...all the anxiety over the fight and we just coasted through it. IDK..maybe our group of misfits is more closely knit then we realized......didn't use Vent, and we hardly chatted at all, we just did it.

and what is with waiting 11 hours for a party??!! You could solo/duo a few levels no problem in that time--Campaign alone could net you 15k an hour if you do it right. Granted, there is the issue of skillups...but you can do some of that in besieged (for, again... 15k in an hour). Alternatively, you could hit sky for slower xp and skillups as you go along--I was able to learn Fell Cleave up there on WAR with little effort back when they first introduced skillups on DC's. Once you start soloing in abyssea post 80/85 though, the skills will fly by.

Just like my OP stated...battle best suited for specific jobs. Leveled it. Beat taru. Just like SE wanted.
