Rage over Sophia

[Rawrz]

Nope they will still die to 2 and a half Cintamani casts (at least they did with min ilv when this was released, or maybe I'm misjudging the damage because of all the weaknesses from dying to simple mechanics and vulnerability stacks).


On the topic: when it released I thought to myself I would never clear the damn fight, but now I can solo-heal the thing no problem. It will all become easier as long as you keep trying to memorize and improve.

Its 6kish (DoM) - 8kish DoW before stacks. DPS and Healers usually have around 17-20k HP. DoM survive pretty easily since it take only 1-2k healing for them to survive. DoWs like Drg/Mnk need only an Indom to survive (or a Divine seals + medica or a Medica + SCH/SMN Virus.) Everyone by the end of it, will have very low health, but AOEs are very easy to deal with in the amount of time they give you. :O

With ilv235 I had barely 15K HP, DPS had 16K. With vulnerability stacks the damage goes up to nearly 9K-hit, not saying anything about weaknesses. So yeah, you're wrong. Also learning parties are NOT farm parties where you can let everyone get to low health because they probably know how to handle the next mechanic: you're running against time to get them to near full so they won't die to the next Thunder III.

In my opinion Sophia is not that easy. It is easier than Thordan, but I'd learn Sephirot or Ravana any day over learning Sophia.
