[HELP] The Reason Roaille - Stuck

[Drenaye]

I've been working on this for a few hours now. Lvl5 51 BLM. This is my UI so you can see what I'm working with. I cast sleep and it's resisted. I take out the healers first and the archers next focusing on the mechs after that, but to no avail. Any tips would be blessedly welcome.

[Zarabeth]

Do you have the latest gear set?

[Drenaye]

Yes and no. I have eqquiped what gives me the higher *lvl. If I equip the recommended to raise stats, my item level goes down by 5 points.

[Zarabeth]

I would go with the HQ Rainbow set including jewelry. That will help your damage output a lot which will make kills faster. Other than that you seem to be killing in the right order.

[Drenaye]

Unfortunately, buying any gear right now is out of the question. I'm broke. I have a total of 70kG and I need that just to TP between places.

Healers > Mechs > guy linked to the colossus > colossus. In the final wave, listen to the instructions and take enemies to the ground marker, which will... paralyze them or something like that.

Stay close to your healer(s), and keep them alive.

Wait... where's Fire 1 on your hotbar? I don't see it. If you're not using Fire 1, you're going to have to learn how to BLM.

[Drenaye]

I was told to take fire 1 off. They said Fire 1 and lightnings were bulls**t so I've taken them all off

[Derio]

Go to marketboard in a city and buy some max potions. That will give you enough time to survive the rest of the fight. Otherwise you need better gear or a new battle strategy. You need to use fire though

[MomomiMomi]

Fire 1 is your primary spell until level 60. Even then it's still useful, but isn't your primary spell anymore.

You use Fire 1 because it has a faster cast time, lower MP cost, and most importantly, it triggers Firestarter, which allows you to cast instant cast and MP free Fire III. Fire III should only be used during Firestarter or to switch to Astral Fire III.
