    MNK vs. Chimera? {Please assist.}

    So after watching a few videos of MNKs burning down Chimera (3 or 4 in conjunction with 1/2 WHM and 2 BLMS) we decided to give it a shot. Incapacitating the tail was good, but Voice of The Ram pretty much wipes the party. Would anyone be so kind as to share more information on this? I know I'll get trolls in this thread, and that's fine with me. I'm genuinely attempting to better the strategy and learn. In advance, I appreciate your helpful responses.

    The WHM needs to make sure Stoneskin is up on the group for Voice of the Ram. Everyone should be able to survive it if they're topped off. MNKs need to try to not eat Chimera's various TP moves while moving around for positional combos. If you have 2 WHMs or a BRD, you can try to rotate Prism Stoneskins/Regens/Cures/etc. When we did it, we preferred not to try to save Pounce stuns just for Voice of the Ram, and instead had the MNKs just go all out.

    No point using a bard in that fight though. Does minimal damage to Chimy at best.

    Thank you for the response! In the videos I've seen even the WHM/BLM stack on the tail after breaking it, is this good practice or should they stay out of range?

    We tried monk burn today and pretty much wrecked Chimera. However Voice of the Ram did kill 3 people. We're thinking of using decoy to negate it. Next time we do it I'll be able to see if it works.

    You can just cast the song and then change jobs.
