Why is nobody talking about the real issue?
No Favicon?
How can you sleep at night.

I cannot stress how EASY using: MNK, COR, BRD, GEO, RDM, WHM is for a 9boss sortie setup (hard mode aminon included).
Is the WHM/DRK too? Does that mean everyone uses silent oils/invis powders? WHM/SCH aoe accession S/I makes things easier for multi-boxing for me personally so I was wondering about this one.

I would and I did go for Helheim. It swings 12% faster than Laphria by default, and is not hard to gear to 5-hit, 100% datk. Laphria has appreciably higher base damage for harder hitting autos, but Fimbulvetr has superior SC properties and damage calculation vs. Disaster and its autos come out faster.
If you're finding substantial advantage in damage with Laphria, then you're probably not using an appropriate set for Helheim. It's fallen into this weird group think where people just want the, "signature" weapon of WAR to be the best, so everyone seems to be chanting ad infinitum, "Yeah Laphria is slightly better overall plus BREAKS!" Which, you know, if you need Breaks for content, then you can still do them and weapon swap(or you could be realistic and have your BRD do Shell Crusher cause breaks other than DEF down are usually not cared about, but if they are they are worth the weapon swap). The horror!
That said, Disaster does have the cooler WS animation. Just can't beat a giant sun shaped explosion. Thanks Metatron Torment! (Course I'm still really fond of Scourge, as it looks like opening up heaven with a small halo at the top, and then slicing through the firmament of reality)
But I would definitely go for Helheim, especially if you are interested in the other jobs on it as well.

I kind of regret doing helheim honestly. It is a great weapon, but thinking back, i would have rather had a great great axe for my warrior than helheim. The difference between Caladbolg and Helheim aren't enough imo for that job. And for pld and run it's a toy for MLs really, not anything else.

at stage 4, caladbolg is slightly stronger than helheim for drk/pld FYI. So if you are not going all the way to stage 5 consider that.

Quote: Avatar: Lv+2 provides the following:
Gives +4 HP and +30 to every stat, but less for Item Level avatars.
With a Seraphicaller/Sancus Sachet/Sancus Sachet +1, it is currently +10 to all stats, +2 HP, +74 Attack, +57 Accuracy, +44 Defense, +44 Evasion https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Nirvana_(Level_119) Quote: When equipped, this item will raise the level of the summoned avatar to 113.
This effect is known to give +70 INT, and likely gives +70 to all base stats among other potential bonuses. https://www.bg-wiki.com/ffxi/Dashavatara_SachetIf these are accurate, they match the base stat bonuses given to automatons which you can see on their equipment screen:

You pick Laphria so you can immediately lockstyle into Helgoland (the giant concrete block hammer you can get from Ambuscade), and have Disaster look like you're turning someone's face into a smoothie.

Sounds like a good reason to me.
Even having the director parachute in for a photo op would be a reason just not a good one.

It's an SE mini game, yes, you have to do something every day.
Already been a couple howtos.

Thanks for the feedback, kind what I was expecting. Not as good as Laphria or WAR, BUT it has use over multiple jobs and it’s good for one of those jobs and fun for the other… I think it’s worth the trade off for me to make Helheim My Bad :D

So that is why it was so cheap

helhiem used by 4 jobs and covers Darkness SC option, the oppsite of Laphria(light), which is used only by WAR. both need 6 month grind. if you love WAR go for Lapharia.
Laphria is darkness my friend. Unless I misread you?

I agree with Atrox.
I have both s5 and they are very similar with an edge to Laphria for DPS and the party utility of GA.
I made Helheim first because it can be used for WAR and DRK also Shockwave is very useful for crowd control in Limbus.

I have both. The Great Axe is superior for war as one would think. If war is your main, id highly recommend it over helhime.
That said, helhime is a very underrated weapon. It is Drk's highest dps option (though scythe and caldbolg are not that far behind but still noticably behind) and it is definitely usable on war. I consider it useless for run but I only use my run to tank oddy. When i have used it though, its impressive damage for a Run and fun to use for sure.
When comparing it on war specifically to Laphris, I find the white dmg much lower, ws dmg about 5 to 7 percent less and slower in gaing tp. I do use it often on war when I need Shockwave (cough limbus)and love having the option to swap between both but that lower weapon rating and not having breaks, combined with weaker dmg and slower tp is always subpar.
Definitely not a horrible idea to go with Helhime based on your situation but Laphria just makes war feel right.

You can still benefit from Aria with SV down since you have a GEO included in a 9 boss setup.

Asura.Bronzequadav said: »As far as the other chars, Pretty standard mix of af/emp/relic +3/4, malignance, rank20 nyame. Cor is +8 but +7 would be more than fine. You're going to want the bard to at least be 4 song + honor march capable, and stage3 horn for aria when it comes to adding aminon to the run.
All the backline needs /drk absorb tp sets, which is just some big FC pieces + macc JSE+3/4 in the rest of the slots, frazzle3/dark threnody does the heavy lifting, I'd say you would want at least a minimum 14sec recast fully hasted (rdm, geo, and brd should have zero issue getting 12sec recast due to large FC options).
Thanks a ton for sharing! I'm just starting to work on Sortie basement with my multibox setup so I'm still pretty far from Aminon, but I like to plan ahead.
I've been thinking that Aria(and S3 weapons) is the biggest bump in damage that I'm going to have access to, but it's good to know it's so impactful in Sortie. I'm assuming you swap out Aria when SV is down? Or do you find that you have enough attack without SV?

Just to speed it up some, with chi blast up he still only gets the one fetter off around 10% or less with rdm and monk on it, found he would fetter a bit earlier if the cor/brd got on it as well.
Normal mode aminon usually looks like:
mnk>cor>rdm>brd>geo
Hard mode:
rdm/cor/brd dmg can shuffle around some depending on how much effort is being put in (which is usually not much).

Yesterday I was thinking so much about my video script that I couldnt fall asleep at my usual time.
I normally go to sleep at 10pm, but it was already 0:30am and I was still wide awake.
This is kinda a bother because I wake up early and start doing my things right after. Sleeping late means waking up late and that means messing with my schedule.
Worried about not being able to sleep, and tired of trying to forcefully sleep, I tried my last resort: I grabbed my ipad and restarted reading the current chapter of Computer Systems book.
The current chapter was talking about boolean operation with bytes.
Shortly after reading one paragraph I successfully managed to sleep like a rock.

What kind of gear on everyone to do this? Specifically the MNK (looking to progress more too, so we could try to get this set up).

depends on the encounter, its not a 1 size fits all kind of thing in both how they can be proc'd and what they do when proc'd, wiki has (some) of the proc conditions on those specific NMs and what they do
