Temple of Qarn debacle

You can stun "final sting" with "Brutal Swing". Hit it the second that the bee telegraphs FS. The DPS should kill the first bee before it gets "final sting", but if they don't, you can get that one too. It's important that you and the DPS are attacking the same target as "final sting" is started at around 25% of the bee's health. If you're separately burning them down, one or the other might get FS off before you can stun it. Don't forget about Doom from the boss.

Also, strong advice on the Warrior job. Get your Paladin up to 15 at the least.

Because Brutal Swing is off gcd, and because they will re-attempt final sting, hitting it "the second that the bee telegraphs" is a bad idea. It's plenty slow enough to wait halfway thru and if it's not dead, then stun it. Then you've got that much more time to kill it since you won't have a 2nd stun for that bee.

Good job on unlocking your job. I have one small thing to add to the good advice you've received. I noticed most of your jewelry has strength as its main stat. This is dps jewelry and will make it make you more squishy.

You can equip any class's jewelry on your tank so you need to look for jewelry that lists vitality as its primary stat and equip that.

Final Sting doesnt one shot tanks as far as i noticed. Might just look like this because the tanks getting additional damage from other mobs.

Anyway, Quarn is one of the harder dungeons. The first boss has the bees, wich should be killed as soon as they appear and the second boss can be pretty stressfull for a healer. The last boss is easy compared to the other ones.

Final sting USED to one shot tanks, it has been nerfed pretty heavily and won't one shot now.

Was it? I hadn't realized but it's been months since I've even seen Final Sting in Qarn. Last time i was in Hullbreaker it did the usual max hp hit. Interesting.

Sch healers can still eat both final stings off the boss adds with adlo and ss up fyi. I "tested" this the hard way over the weekend. They hit for significantly less than the othe dungeon bees though so dont try it with those.
