We actually managed to get everyone to stop attacking it and when we did it walked back to the Chocobo Stables where we all gathered, we stood there together, /prayed and it just collapsed out of nowhere. This was right after it dropped.

I'm beginning to think praying mobs to death was only meant for a phase. But I will continue to try it.

Thats awesome. I can't tell if there just isn't ENOUGH praying or if it actually isn't working anymore... There's no convincing jp players to pray when I can barely communicate to them.

Praying worked on the Bixie, but not (really) on the Nael von Darnus-es and Imperial Guys whom we all managed to take down eventually. Peace in Uldah here for now...

but this may not just work later :mad:. ~~The GMs may just change the game.~~ Has anyone managed to mass pray at the shrines yet?

Breaking news:

The mobs in Limsa were killed (no praying needed) and then came this:

The attack on Limsa Lominsa seems to have calmed down at this time, but it is best to be on guard for any further danger!

In Ridill right now popped some elementals and we all are /praying and it don't seems to work, they die fast when we attack them though.

Yeah, I'm beginning to thing this is being done in phases and not randomly. The first phase is deliberately WAY too hard and we can only pray it all to death. Then Darnus + Imperial Guy's spawn and you can only pray down the bixie adds. And then after that, you just have to fight everything down yourself. Then you're told to change town, kill everything there, then it tells you to be on guard... Now waiting for next phase.

I think our server agreed to only /pray to big mobs that take nearly 3-4 hours or more to kill and all gang up and attack the lesser mobs (elementals, Bixie, Cactuars, etc.). But for those boss mobs that last forever, I think we agreed to wait and /pray to them so they insta-die.

Balmung just moved onto the Limsa phase. Boy its chaos at the Aetheryte plaza

Durandal at Grid, Great Buffalo went down with almost full HP, everyone present and alive got buffs such as Quicken and ATK up (kind of like Atomos buffs). Not everyone was /praying but a good amount of us were

There's nothing going on in Masamune right now. No mobs in any of the cities. We had the magictek vanguards last night but I guess they were prayed to death.

Aegis seems to have started a new cycle.

After taking down four or five drakes on the main strip, 3x Nael van Darnus spawned INSIDE the Arrzanaeth Ossuary.

We're dealing with them now, but I'm gonna see what happens if I pray to a certain god's aspect there.

Edit: Didn't do much, but we DID beat the living daylights out of those three pretenders.

We got attack up buffs during our second Grid phase (due to praying?), We went back to Uldah and killed some straggler sabotenders, now waiting on next phase.

Thank you for this exciting information.

Three darnus and a crap ton of imperial guys spawned. I prayed dead ONE Darnus... the rest wont fall.

I don't recall Masamune ever having to get to the other cities to kill stuff yet (unless that happened the whole afternoon I fell asleep...)

Am wondering if these events are triggered by some action? Or just decided upon at the mercy of our respective GMs~~~~~

The Wandering Minstrel must be secretly guffawing away in the background.....

I very much doubt praying helps to kill these, yesterday we had over 100 imperial centurions in ul'dah and more just kept spawning, eventually, all of them just started spontaneously dying until there was a reasonable number of killable enemies left, I imagine the spontaneous deaths are simply to relieve stress on the server.

It's more than likely something that wasn't necessarily planned. I imagine that the GMs controlling the spawns at the time are just like, "lol they're using /pray at them, let's de-spawn everything." The fact that on my server, people walked away with buffs like 10m Quickstride, proves that it's a way to get rid of them that the people in charge are supporting.

They did not despawn, they fell down and DIED. Instantly. The Number 126 Golems went from 100% to 0% in an INSTANT. Yes... Prayer killed them. It didn't happen BEFORE anyone prayed. Other servers confirmed it. Don't like it, too bad.

And there was not any substantial server stress at the time.

Praying seemed to up my hit-rate by a lot on the Imperial guys. This is very curious indeed.

Praying to the Imperial Guys did not really alter my hit rates at all.
We just had our second round of Imperial Guys on Masamune, no Nael von Darnuses this time round.
What next?

How come whatever's happening on other servers are quite different from ours...

Did a hole in your education confuse you into typing a "?" instead of a "." or are you just a douchebag?

I was wondering why mobs were randomly dying when their HP was nearly full.
I saw a few die when they had over 50% HP yesterday and on Wednesday.

Praying got me three buffs. I was not in a party. It doesnt always do something, but sometimes it does.

This. Mobs do NOT just die every 10 minutes. We fought the golem for HOURS before me and my friend decided to pray at it and it spontaneously died.

Good job on this. A few of us we're trying to get mass prayer going on Gungir on Thursday, but it fizzled. I'm actually glad there was a hidden solution. I wonder how long this has been in the game?

Probably as long as /fume worked on mobs in Voidwatch in XI.

So you need to pray to kill mobs faster? Yesterday we fought a Magitek level 100 for more than 3 hours, then when it was less than 1% started to regen all his HP and then went to less than 1%. I think it's was SE trolling us.

About to die after 3 hour of fight:

Wait a minute... for those who prayed and got buffs...
did you just /pray or targeted a mob and /pray-ed?
I've been targeting a mob everytime... kinda funny to be "praying" to an enemy LOL.
Well it did work on that Bixie at least!

If you had just /pray-ed without targeting anything it would have made sense to receive a buff or two, in which case, you may just need some "recharging" from a shrine to get buffs in future.... just speculating here, but do let us know if this may be the case.
