Gear is overrated, the bikini/reindeer Ifrit Fight

[Shift]

I'll see if I can get a geared parse for comparison.

Standard JRPG fare, fighting demonic demigods in bikinis~
Sometimes they're the best armor, even if your party mate won't agree
(that was a Persona 3 reference since everyone will miss it)

Also this fight is incredibly positioning-based
This is the first time I even see that fight (yes, I have completed the easy quest but I had a L50 friend that aggroed Ifrit with a //snowball// before I was over with the cutscene) much less try it, i'm a mere L35 Lancer can't say much. However- You guys seem to take damage very rarely, you do a perfect job at positioning essentially going all danmaku-memory on that big dude. Also you all have your high-end weapons on. I cannot really vouch for the tank in this case since I couldn't keep my eye on the tank's health but... It was a hell of a lot more your skill keeping you alive than anything gear could do. I presume that if a person fully geared were to weather those moves without doing some danmaku-dodge too they'd die just as easy as you would because they're powerful, not because there's no need for gear.

Now I could be fully wrong, I AM a newbie, but that is my impression

Here is the same fight from my perspective, gotta warn ya though, Ifrit is blocking the view and I'm a wee little dude

(I'm not the best video maker either, so sorry for the poor~ish quality.)

Has the moogle fight been done Naked?? (Serious Question), anyone who has fougt Ifrit a shitload of times, knows Ifrit doesnt require gear it requires knowlegde of positioning and when to use your abilities.. Tank would be the only one at risk with no gear.. and 2 good cnjs, rotating SS and keeping his health up, it would be a no brainer win.. Nice job.. but no point in gloating something that isnt challenging to do and has already been done.. but again nice job...

I'll start having fun when I get a hold of whatever drugs you're on.

well i dont want to comment on the stats, but stuff LIKE this is done in every FF title before right ? like FFX no sphere grid, finish FFX-2 with ONE character, or FF9 with Lv1 party .... etc you get the idea

maybe stats are broken but challenges like this should be do able even if they aren't, because there will be people who are willing to do it anyway

Just goes to show you this game can't be taken seriously. What other sub-based MMOs let's you do this?
