Solo thread!

[Byrth]

I try to keep my sets fairly up-to-date on FFXIAH:

If I am out soloing, I like Dark Depths as my third Atma. With that and Gnarled Horn, I pretty much never have to sacrifice any gear slots for Evasion.

Scylla so far was my toughest solo, big NMs are a lot scarier with only 1K HP instead of 2.5K :x

I have attempted to solo just about anything I've come across. I..usually succeed. The times I dont I tend to die within seconds lol. Hm I've soloed plenty of nms inside aby which I dont think are all that notable. Soloed many things outside aby as well including vnms such as yacumama, (okay I had a rng in pt with me but he was really just there for the kill for his gun). I did solo amarok once but his spikes/regen were a pain so after that had either a brd or a blm there purely for procs and dispel and aside from that told them not to do anything else (cause I wasnt bothered using finishing moves to get hate back if I lost it. Im so lazy sometimes).

I soloed the amphipteres in xarc_s/bcd_s plenty of times. Today I soloed dynamis xarc..thats not exactly the same thing I suppose but it was fun.

I would like to know what gears you guys are wearing. I havent macroed anything in yet and I am uncertan about what gear I should get. WHat do you wear when you;
WS
Gain TP
Other

Usually I end up going RR/GH/SS for most things because I'm too cheap to spend brew on getting AoA, but for harder solos I'm becoming more fond of GH/SS/Future Fabulous for a nice mix of offense, evasion, HP, Haste (so I can wear stuff like Slither Gloves without really sacrificing haste), and magic defense (which is the only real concern; harder solos mean a greater chance bookshell's going to run out).

Probably my most difficult successful solo to date was Fuath; high defense + stun resistance (had to eat/heal a lot of agas) meant I couldn't do enough damage to kill her before bookshell wore off.
