Cannot pass REQUIEN FOR HEROS

[Kima_R]

omg!! I played quest 60 times and I still can't pass it. I could only destroy 2 of 3 sticks , don't know where to stand and I die. Is there a thing that I can buy to pass this or have somebody help me?

Rewatching the fight, the "sticks" to destroy are the swords he stabs into the ground. It is essentially your damage check in that fight and functions identical to the one from Ala Mhigo final boss in that you have to destroy all three of them. There is no safe spot if you fail to destroy them all before the gauge fills to 100.

I recommend getting the highest available item level of around i400 (Augmented Scaevan) from Ala Mhigo for tomestones of poetics. Materia aren't mandatory, but by then you should have a few grade VI amassed so it is nethertheless good to have. Alternatively if you are short on tomestones, you can get Lv70 white quality HIGH quality gear from market board or maybe you have friends / FC members who can make you a set.

I also recommend, regardless of which job you play, that you prioritize keeping attacks going even if you are forced off the sword (use ranged attacks as melee/tanks, use instantcasts as caster/healers). It will also help keeping high potency damage cooldowns of each job available until that phase starts so you can blow one or two swords to smithereens as soon as possible.

Most importantly, keep the global cooldown rolling. It is stunning how much damage you lose out on if you don't keep it rolling and perform more attacks per minute. Press weaponskills / spells before the cycle is complete so you can auto-queue the next action.
