Garuda Extreme as WAR MT.

We don't kill Chirada during the final phase. MT tanks Garuda + Suprana. OT takes spiny + Chirada. DPS kill Suprana then focus on Garuda. Makes the fight much shorter and spiny shield is enough to keep you alive even with Chirada still alive.

Even still, why does the MT have to tank Suparna AND Garuda Together? Wouldn't the damage be much better dealt with if spread out between the MT and OT, instead of having both Wicked Wheels potentially KOing the MT?

Because if you aren't killing Chirada once Suprana is dead the tank only has to worry about Garuda. If you swapped OT to Suprana the OT would have to then pull Chirada off the MT.

Honestly WW is not bad to deal with. You know when it's coming and hopefully the healer does too.

Because Chirada does a high-powered Downburst that does about as much damage to the tank as Suparna's Wicked Wheel, and occurs at about the same time. It is pretty much the same risk to the MT to tank Garuda + Chirada together.

So your saying....dont kill chirada...just kill suparna and then garuda....does MT take spiny? Then after mistral, chirada just disappears?

[Yamete]

good question up here, i would like to know the answer too :-)

[SirTaint]

Spiny is handled like usual. 2 stack swap. Yes Chirada depops. As OT I DPS Chirada not sure how her HP affects mistral.

[Auron_Wolf]

So to most of people pull surprana and garuda as main and OffTank Chiriada is the safe choise?

This has been my questions for a while. It makes more sense to me to split the wicked wheel up instead of having the MT eat both. I guess it really depends on party composition and gear level. Yes, OT pulling chirada is easier for melee DPS, but it is worth the MT wiping? I don't have a leveled up monk, but looking at the abilities it doesn't seem they have a ranged attack like dragoon's Piercing Talon. It's not optimal DPS but drg can sit with ranged during tornados and throw spear to avoid WW if OT pulls Suprana. I haven't beaten it with any class, though, so my input means little, just trying to get it figured out lol
