Wanderer's Palace Command Mission

[LalaRu]

Again with this old topic,
we all know the best thing of the game is, there is not a "wrong" job, or "wrong" Grand Company in your game choices, so...

can someone explain me why the mission in topic is almost near to impossible to do if you try it with the "wrong" job and perhaps, the "wrong" party composition?

Do I have to setup the right job, right components, and right mastery to be able to accomplish it? Is this sorta savage mission?

Don't want everything throw at me of course, I did learn engage/disengage management and everything, but no way if YOU are a dps (the wrong dps maybe ). Or I need much more luck who knows, it can be an hidden stat!

My tought is, when I disengage there is no reason the healer stops healing. After almost an hour and at third try my tank died after 20s, it was hilarious and I gave up.

I have done that one on all ARR jobs, which job and part and composition specifically is the issue? I personally only found WHM with the puddings a bit spicy.

It is the squadrom command mission not the duty of course, tried it as rdm and healer cannot keep up tank even if i managed to let him out the ponds

I still have issues trying to get the squadron npcs onto the elevator in Copperbell hard if it makes you feel better. It's like trying to herd cats.

I did it today, you just get it alone and them respawn later.

With healer I were able to do it at first try.
The issue seems all about the healer not keeping up. And/or tank needs to unlock higher DEF mastery.

Pharos Sirius is the one that gave me the most trouble getting the squadron through. That damn Zu mother mid boss is completely impossible if you're a DPS, because all of the chicks will ONLY target the PC and ignore all the NPCs, meaning you have to kill them or you'll die yourself, but the more you kill, the stronger the mother gets. So you have to selectively kill the most dangerous chicks and be able to survive the rest of the fight. It took me way more tries than I could keep track of.

Yep, you are the only target for most mechanics, making more difficult the duties themselves. As you always being the frog in wanderer's palace. Ribbit!

I never any problems with that duty. Just put everyone on offensive tactics and they burn enemies and bosses faster than the majority of DF players you run into... Never ever have I seen any reason to use anything but offensive tactics.
The real challenge is trying to clear Brayflox (Hard)'s final boss with them... if you don't have a good circular AoE they're all going to get killed by the bombs.
