instant kill mechanics during Mystery Maps.

[Gormogon]

The Biclops wasn't that hard to solo (as WHM i98) but it is significantly more challenging than the regular boarskin maps (which are intended for fresh 50's unlike these which are obviously intended for people that have relic animus).
Haven't come across the golem yet

AoE's will trivialize biclops a bit and not sure if it will work for Mythril Golem. The threat from those two come from all those adds ganging up on 1 person.

Argh! Had a dc when doing my daily chest... It was the Woad Back(Petrify), Wine Back(Paralysis) and Gold Back(Poison) Ziz trio.

Considering a healer with full i110 left side gear and a 115 weapon and 30 stat points in VIT will be around 5500 hp, grats on having 40+ VIT worth of accessories on?

But yes, all the maps are soloable with out too much difficulty when a person knows what to do on them. I think for the first couple days it's just unfortunate that a lot of people had to learn the hard way that certain approaches and precautions must needs be taken.
Chocobos are your friends even when no one else is.
Set your home to the same zones aetheryte
And possibly have a small variety of antidotes, Hi-elixirs, etc available.

If i had full i110 left side, i110 tank right side and i115 wep i'd have probably around 7k hp easily. Yes i did spec 30 vit.
But i'm no 2nd coiler so i don't habe these options till CT2.

I got this on my 2nd daily map. Petrify feels like forever while the 3 Ziz are pecking away. They damage low though quite easy with a level 8 healer chocobo (nearly 9). My 1st was 2 Golems with huge HPs to trim down to 0. Today is a Dira-like boss with 2 ads doing frontal cone attacks. No insta kill maps so far while doing it solo so Im lucky I got 3 alex without fail.

The only thing I'm thankful for is that you don't need the animus weapon or even the right job too to clear them. My BLM has the animus but its my lowly i81 Warrior/zenith with 7.6K+ HP on defiance with AoE poor but decent single enemy damage that opens all the maps. Maybe my i94 BLM can do it too (never tried) but I'm not sure if 4.5K HP, damage, with manawall can burn through or last against spawns in under 5 minutes.

Was soloing the rock golem just fine until a grp of bombs spawned behind me and then charged and one shot me for more then 5k dmg.

It is a mechanic. Those bombs just stand there and do nothing for awhile making you believe they are not a threat. You have to go over there and kill them all before the all charge you and sell destruct.

Nowhere does it say "This content is meant to be done solo".

Actually, it does. The map has a 1 listed in the number of recommended players. The piesteskin maps show an 8 because they're intended to be taken on by an entire group of reasonably fresh 50s. People are soloing the piesteskins largely because they massively outgear them.

I really dislike how if something is timed and the timer runs out while your still in combat it fails you. stuff should not fail you are in combat.

[Moirear]

I helped a friend do three maps yesterday. The morbol, the succubus trio and a bunch of lizards.

Risk: 1/10 (if present), 6/10 (if you afk)
Attention level required: 2/10
Difficulty: 1/10

And this is content meant for people that are, literally, carrying a level 100 weapon with them.

All I'm going to say is the complains in this thread are pathetic and it's no wonder I've seen some of your faces on the other threads asking to nerf different content. Yes, yes, I get it, "it's not that it's hard, it's that <insert convoluted excuse>". Right.

Woah, guys! We have a badass here.

Maybe get back to the thread when you've solo'ed a couple of Mythril Golem maps, as that's the actual source of grief shared here. Perhaps you can do it on, say, MNK, for giggles. Then you can continue to lord over everybody how awesome you are, or how much they suck, or whatever floats your boat.

Haven't seen the cyclops yet but I gotta say the Mythril golem really had me on edge as a war. I was trying to burn the golem (dps accessories) and I blew all my defensive cool downs for the first wave of bombs and it still took me to about 30% hp. I saved Holmgang for the last wave of 5 adds. I managed to survive with two berserk IB's and a mega potion.

I also noticed that you can possibly avoid the bomb aoe by having you chocobo out and healing you as they will aggro you first then the chocobo. I managed to dodge one bomb aoe because it attacked my chocobo. You definitely want to be a tank for this fight as they have moves that can bypass the ohko mechanics.

These shouldnt need a party.... the Map says 1 instead of Peiste that says 8.

They don't. It requires people to pay a minimum of attention , and still give the option that if you don't want to risk it you can always take a friend.
