Tank-specific tips for Extreme Primals

[Lemon8or]

Good luck with that. I think you, Gamemako and Lemon all down these in statics and simply don't realize how often melee and tanks get instakilled to WW/DWW.

I personally almost never done it with static. I'd beaten all 3 for at least 3 weeks before anyone I know did so all PUGs. All my rings have been farmed with PUG group whether when I main tank, off tank or DPS as monk or black mage. My method involves: 1. Tell everyone OT is picking up Spiny and Chirada and focus Chirada. 2. Tell the melees to wait till OT provoke Suparna or at least wait till WW goes off. That's it. I even have macros for: running into Spiny bubble, running out to avoid feathers, provoke spiny and HOLY WTFBBQ WW is coming (I push it about 5 seconds before they go off).
I didn't act like one strategy is viable. In fact, as long as you understand the mechanics, any groups can beat it. Problem is: some people don't so your strategy is not going to make up for that.
Edit: to elaborate on the triangle strategy, bard would be the ideal dps to pull hate on Chirada. They just have to blow everything without Quelling Strike. If DPS is lacking, you can use melee LB on it. As I said 3 LB1s are not as powerful as 1 LB3 but whatever keeps you alive. Also the position changes up a bit. OT and the DPS will be on opposite sides to keep the sister far apart while the MT has garuda in the middle. If you don't kill Chirada before they switch places, the tanks would have to walk through the tornadoes or suffer stacks so in essence, it's not that much better.
