Trying to learn T9

[LunarEmerald]

Always kill green first.

Honestly for t9, written guides > the video guides. just watch a clear video for reference. Also there are tons of ways to do this fight, and there is no right one, be open to multiple strategies. And for your question generally IF you can, you can feed your green 1-2 meteors usually, but dps should be the priority for that first golem

In Duty Finder on Tonberry, and in most PF farm parties, we generally do Blue > Green > Red.

But do the Golems have to eat the meteors or do we avoid this?
Since Mr Happy doesn't really explain if they have to or do we have to avoid them from eating them?

Not one person here has answered OP's question. The meteors have to be consumed by the golems otherwise they explode, killing everyone in the party. A golem can eat a maximum of 3 meteors before becoming a "Super" Golem.

That's the best Turn 9 guide out there.

Things have pretty changed much since the days we do strats like solitude does.

Like right now the second set of golems, no one really do the left A > left B > left C > right A > right B > right C thing anymore, we just camp spread out.

Thunderstruck is now front of Nael instead of standing behind Nael.


Well that's at least how people farm in Tonberry I guess.

The first reply actually answer the op's question. But yeah... don't mind me.

Also try using written guides, it's usually much better than any video guide.

Not everyone learns that way. Written guides sometimes have trouble explaining exactly how things work.
For example, it's almost impossible to properly explain things like camera angles and boss animations with text for some people.
In reality, though, do both to get the best idea of what to do.

Green golem has to die first, don't feed it any meteors unless there are ones nearby. The reason being is that if you move green too much melee dps won't be able to hit it as much, and you might accidentally cleave someone by moving or losing aggro.

This is what I recommend you do as it's what I do every time I try to learn a new encounter.

Look up MTQ's video guide, and then look up a POV video on the class that you intend to play. Since you're a tank just type into youtube, "T9 Tank POV" and you'll get a lot of results.

There is a bit of a delay (while there is a purple tether between the golem and meteor) before it actually becomes super, so it is possible to feed a 4th meteor when the golem is low hp and quickly kill it before the transformation happens.

Not saying that it should have to come to that if the group is doing things correctly though. lol
