Just because you haven't seen it doesn't mean it's not possible. And you can't stack Multishot with a WS... So don't assume he had three shots on that one from the vid, it was one.

6 archers and 2 thaumaturges are what we will throw at any difficult content, because difficult MMO content EJECTS meleers the SECOND they start getting AoE'd and "feeding it TP."
And here's where you lose me..."You all?" You don't even know us. Your posts are full of assumption on the part of the players. Get over it. There are a lot of us who DO look for challenges in games. Plenty of us who DO try to solo things that aren't meant to be. And plenty of us who DON'T choose 6 archers for easy mode.

BTW, there's also TP gain mitigation via Battle Regimens and skills, so you're arguements about feeding the mob TP are irrelevant. Also, casting AoE cures cost no more than single target, so "MP Sponges" don't really exist. Not to mention MP is so plentiful in this game now, it doesn't cause any downtime between mobs.

You're basing your stance against Archers on XI mechanics. This is a different game.
