War soled last 5%!

Gonna be honest Warrior LB3 should just do mega damage since you basically bring up mountain spikes before you can say Stone 3.

Wan't there a vid of a WAR soloing her for 15 minutes, about two weeks ago? o.o Fenris something-rather-I-forgot-the-last-name
Everyone was salty/pissy about him wasting time and to just wipe it..... they silenced after 5 mins of the WAR nowhere near being dead and Miss Sparklyhair slowly dying.
He just had to execute the mechanics and rotation flawlessly for 15 mins o_x (I wouldn't have been able to... I'd have slipped up somewhere, after so many repeats... xD; ).

Honestly, it re-kindled my want to re-learn MRD/WAR (had an alt WAR on Balmung, but... haven't played him in almost a year o_o).
I wonder if WAR solos on this fight will become more common (or, lessen when the mechanics become moreso older news than it already is, for some). o_o Seems to be three solo WARs, thus far, on this boss...

pretty much this. And idk why ppl are still surprised war's can solo bosses under 20%? It's been this way since ARR where you will hear stories from war's solo tanking chimera in cutter's cry. I perosnally have been in this situation many times,

Plus this boss doesn't auto attack a lot since she is always casting something. Impressive, but I think its pretty telling that a WAR is more like a DRK than and actual DRK. Anyone got a vid of a DRK soloing that last 5% of the final boss in weeping?

I've yet to see one.

Clemency can only be cast up to 4 times a minute, iirc, and for no more than an Equilibrium, and at cost to block, dodge, and parry chances during those cast times. Every other Equilibrium can gain 50% more healing, or averaging to 1500 per minute, while a full Bloodbath can pull up to around 3000 potency of damage-based healing, and Inner Beast itself can pull up to an additional 1440 potency (300*4*1.2) per minute, and Storm's Path another 1000 per minute ([60/2.5/3]*[250/2]). That's a total of 4800, albeit augmentable 3 casts per window by Convalescence every 2 minutes (average 5340) against nearly 7000.

Clemency is not better. With the PLD also using Bloodbath, the two are very, very close, but the Warrior self-healing comes with a mitigation component, instead of mitigation loss.

Poor DRK.....

It amazes me how people think this is a good thing, this happening means how good designed it was.

The only thing I hate about this is I've seen a few WAR's since these "WAR soloed last x%" videos went up suddenly drag the boss to a wall and try to cleave kill as many people as possible so they can get an "epic solo kill" too*. It's like "yes, we see that you're an almighty WAR, now stop being an a55 and do you're damn job!".

*or at least that's what I think their doing, they might really have just messed up. But that fact that I've never seen a PLD or DRK do it, and it's always in the last bit of the fight, leaves me questioning if it was a mistake or not

Edit: changed my wording a little, since it didn't feel I was getting the right massage across before.

I hope not. >.>
