Requirement for using /fume?

This was specifically to try and proc KI drops. Even if they're not strictly needed to beat VW now, I still wish to collect them.

MNK doesn't have a lot of possible procs. If you want to maximize procs solo, you want to use a job like BLM/SCH that has a lot of them. I've needed at most 2-3 fights to get enough white percentage to get the drop reliably on anything through the first half of Jeuno going as BLM/SCH. Also, Trusts can cover some of the procs if you build a party smartly, though you need to read the thread on BG to get the details of which abilities they tend to use.

Also, as noted, use Rhapsodies completion to be able to do fume more often, but that means you have to be able to take hate away from the Trusts, which means you maybe don't want to summon any that fight, which means you want to use Phase Displacers to make the fight shorter against monsters that use Charm or Death.

You might also be able to find LS members that want to complete that content and haven't that may be able to cover procs. I know a handful of people that play on Fenrir.

I'm a fair ways through Voidwatch, getting everything each time. So long as I have access to /fume, I'm actually not having much of a problem obtaining procs as a MNK/DNC plus trusts so long as I have access to fume.
