The Summoner & WP

[Lyriq]

Has anyone cleared The Wanderer's Palace with two summoners? Curious to know this answer.

[AwesomeAwks]

Nope, nobody ever.

Lots of people have? did several speed runs, just as fast as any other classes. Why would you think they can't do it? its not like it's a hard dungeon.

[Darko]

sure, why not?

I had a SMN in my party today.
Their DoT's aren't enough to keep charge of the Tonberry King Add's.
MNK had to help out because SMN dmg wasn't enough.
But I dunno about two...might be kinda tough lol.

Edit: He had Garuda if that means anything.

Normally you just poke the adds while yiou burn the boss as fast as possible. When I run, don't have anyone specifically going after them. but we're talking well geared speed running. Ive done it before before being well geared and SR, its a little harder but SMN can do it just fine if he knos what he's doing. You don't dot them, you just run 2 them while running around. They don't have much HP. Lay down your dots on boss and use contagion, don't waste actions dotting the adds.

But really, just stick to well geared people, and zerg the boss. Bane or ruin 2 them when they get close. You don't need to (and don't want to) kill all of them, just a few between each rancor.

I always solo the King's adds as SMN. It's easy. You don't DoT all of them. Sic Garuda on one, DoT another, use Energy Drain on another. They drop fast. If your Summoner was trying to stack DoTs on every single one, then he was wasting time and that's why they weren't going down. At worst you can kill an add with a few Ruins.

2 summoners and what? a tank and healer? A well geared summoners who knows their jobs are quite versatile in terms of roles. By the number players of any class/jobs will have a hard time clearing the content of any dungeons. I have used SMN with Titan to tank WP, with 2 other dps and a healer. It can be done quite easily, but need a couple adjustment in terms of how you approach enemy and how to handle boss. Titan still has to be treated as tank, spur and rouse need to be used as well as sustain (adloquium, regen, stoneskin, cure, etc also has to be casted regularly on Titan). If you are going to do something not typical, best to do it with your FC members and try to have fun doing something different.

Tonberry King add can easily be killed with Bio + Miasma, they will be dead before they can reach you due to the added heavy effect. Toss one ruin at it. If your SMN is having problem with add, it's because they are not well geared (fresh off the level 50s may take longer to get things done).

As a newly 50 SMN with Ifrit weapon & 3 DL pieces (legs, feet & hands) I've found the slimes to be challenging. They're hard to clear quickly without a massive AoE move. Just trying to see if I'm playing it wrong & if any other summoner's can shed light on their experiences here. Or anyone who's partied with two summoner's in that dungeon and what they're tactics were.

I mean, I've been the SMN on add duty in this fight before. It's not hard. by time you get 3/4 DoT's on them, they're pretty much dead. And while you're casting DoT's on one, sick Garuda on the next one. I'm always attacking one & sick my pet on another. They die around the same time. It's actually pretty damn fun.
