Smnr and PvP

[RegentP]

Think of how you did when fates were up and stuff was dying super fast, you cut 1 dot and try to energy drain the person. Since we have the least about of health and MP, we must be quick and light on out feet, Anything that can boost spell speed is need, alone with the ability to avoid focus fire.

Simply rotation: Swiftcast- Bio II, Bio I, Fester, Energy Drain x2. repeat

Healer Swiftcast-Bio II, Virus, Miasma II. (Keep them from healing)

Pet put Ifirt on the BLM or Caster.

Speed is the keep, long first do use no good

I wouldn't recommend a lot of that advice.

#1-- Use garuda, not ifrit. Ifrit will never catch up enough to hit someone as they kite around the arena. If someone stuns an enemy so he can, then that enemy is probably dead anyway while your teammate is stunlocking him.

#2-- Swiftcast miasma first to give people the heavy & 50% cure debuff.

#3-- Unlike pve I've noticed that it's usually better to simply put a swiftcasted miasma (if possible) + bio on a guy and fester, since it's difficult to get all 3 dots on a capable player. You actually do good damage even with just 2/3 of the main dots, and when you go fester --> energy drain --> ruin II (as garuda pounds away at him) it can kill a person outright.

#4-- Use shockwave to get a stunlocking melee class (usually pld) off your healer, followed by miasma to heavy them. It's all we can really do to help our healer in that situation. Maybe throw in a ruin II to blind them and hope that RNG causes them to miss.

Some general things I've found useful is abusing the LoS objects and movement to constantly interrupt people that are after you. Fighting a BLM is easy-mode because you can simply run through their character, back and forth, and they will never finish a cast on you (unless they swiftcast it). You don't even have to interrupt them.
