is hamlet defense alliance content?

seriously how is this even remotely possible with 8 players. we are trying jobs, classes, crafter/gather - all sorts of stuff. WHAT IS THE STRATEGY?!

I hear carp can't tank. aside from that nothing yet. Did your server let you start on time?

I'd like to try and figure it out but the server is congested.

It's needs some allergy medicine.

Wait a minute, they put in content you cant zerg out a strategy in the first attempt?

How dare they!

Its impossible! Totally impossible! No one can do this! Because if you dont do it in your first few goes, ITS BROKENZ

How can you defeat that which you cannot fight?

It wouldn't be worth it if you could just go in and win it right away.

Because not everyone is on your server, having the same issues?

People are able to get in, lots in on Gungnir, Balmung, etc.

Our party won 2/2 already

we go in with 6 combat(1 tank 1 healer 1 bard who backup heals)
1 gatherer
1 crafter


first attempt we won with a wipe at the end(but the miltitia finished the NM off so we won)

second attempt they got to our second line, but we all lived

reading your strat vedis, I think we just didnt have both a crafter and gather in the same go

yeah, when you see that there is an achievment for doing it with ALL combat, you start to understand that maybe its harder to do it without them

our gatherer kept giving them hp down + paralysis and sleep
me, as the crafter kept giving my party defensive + evasion and regen

it helped a ton

As a crafter, I did defense and regen as well but my party didn't receive the effects. What did I miss?

it works on militia only
but the militia arent weaklings exactly so these help a ton in addition to everything

I don't think you missed anything. The buffs appear to be for the militia, not the players.

but the front line of militia die so quickly. our group was having no fun at all with this so we gave up after 10 tries

hamlet defense needs either level adjustments for enemy mobs 56+ its a bit high so 50-52 range wouldn't be too bad. or allow people for form allainces and keep current mob level.

We fight mobs all the time 56+ or higher.. Like EXP Pt's in Natalan XD

Level isnt the issue i dont think.

My Party has won pretty swiftly, no Casualties (Not a single breach) and it went smooth.

Lv.2 Hamlet Defense with 32 Monsters dispatched
PT Setup was [4 WAR 1 WHM 2 DoL]
Debuffs used: ATK Down (Survival) & Poison (Quick Kill)


We owe it to the DoL! :p You have to kill the Monsters quick, while not having yourself killed.

-Take enemies off the DoH/L If they get hate.
-Buff the Militia Defend Lines, and Cure them whenever needed.
-Take enemies off Militia Defenders If they're getting too much hit.
-Just the wave before the NM spawns, try to kill/reduce the HP of the mobs quick.
-Once the NM pops, Kill him as quick as you can, before more monsters spawn.
-Have One or Two of your WAR take enemies off Supplement NPCs/DoH/L If they wander
around.

This is how my Party did it~

P.S
One thing I'm curious of is the L50 Lemur that pops at the start of the Battle and
L50 Scout Wolf that spawns before NM appears.

you could be right, but i have done those natalan parties also and even soloed few mobs at 55 but these, for some reason seem stronger then normal mobs.

does the hp down one actually inflict paralysis? It just reads hp down as a gatherer, I think its just the same symbol.
