    Need Advice/Help

    I've cleared Levi Ex multiple times on my WHM for fun and I wanted to try on my PLD.
    So I go in with my PLD and I'm OT the only problem is the stunning that dreadpool move.
    My acc is 460 just so you guys know and I'm i90.
    When I try to stun that move it says invulnerable. But when I try to stun again soon after it works, but by that time hysteria already prompt on the floor. Is there something I'm doing wrong because it happens everytime

    Here's whats going on, once he begins casting those bad bad moves, he cannot be stunned.

    You have 3 actions from him until he begins casting Dreadcrap. He is meant to be stunned BEFORE he casts Dread/Dark moves. Once he begins casting that horrible stuff you are too late.

    Here is my strat:

    I usually just let him run to a dps and make sure no one is trying to fluid aura him. (Some people flash him and hold at edge, you can do this too especially if you think he'll live. Stop flashing when its close to STUN time)

    I watch him.... Ruin. Ruin. Ruin.<-- NOW YOU STUN. Do not spam it.

    Stun once, 4-6 seconds.

    Stun again as it wears, 2-3 seconds.

    Stun again, 1 second.

    Now you've done all you could, hit your off GCD's if you havent, start smacking him, pray someone pushes him, or that the DPS are not sucky and he dies by now. This is the strat.

    Yup, what Dashuto said. If you stun during Dread, it's too late. And make sure none of your other dps are stunning him too.

    Yes and right after, dont try and be a scrooge and be like "i can wait half a sec". Server latency can mess with you.

    I always start my next stun when I see 1 second left on the old stun.

    As stated its usually 4-6, then 2-3, and then always 1, then its done- full resists time.

    If he lives to then you still have a few more seconds for DPS to finish him off. If you have a smart whm or a garuda user they can blow him away to buy a tiny bit longer.

    Beware Drg's stunning, beware Ifrit pets stunning, beware Summoners not controlling their garuda and sending him across arena while you are still stunning. <--- A nasty one
