No shouts for him on your server? He drops 2 pieces that people still want (neck and mask). You could try making a group for him since he's pretty easy to kill with 12 people or less.

Oh I figured it was for a clear. Soloing VW for drops seems... insane :3

(Sorry, I know this isn't helpful. Stopping now.)

What do I change in the THF DPS spreadsheet to test different SA sets? I put two different sets under the "SA gear" tab but they're both showing the same SA dmg results so I'm assuming I'm doing something wrong lol

edit: figured it out.

This still worth keeping? Came back from a break and don't even remember if I ever used it for anything.

It's probably better to start a shout pt and go with around 6 ppl to cover procs. Even if you can solo it, it's not going to be efficient in terms of amount of NM you can kill and cap lights etc.(Mala has low drop rate)

Well aware of the bad drop rate :(. I saw 1 shout today (though I was more so going by my experience pre-break, as not much has changed since then anyways), and joined it. did 12 kills, no mala, but got like 5 masks lol... FU VW

Anybody know what job combos can solo/duo Suzy these days? Nin + whm good enough? Do I need to be nin/dnc for stuns or would a good bar set from the whm be enough and just go to mdt mode during CS?

I used an autoexec thinger and did it while I was asleep. You can set it up to throw refresh in between barspell cycles.

Hahava is a joke to solo on SCH because of the frequent stops to cast and movement. You can manage with AH gear, just need to have a full fast cast set precasted(Nares Cap would really help, but I'm sure it can be done without). Seconding what someone else said though, it's impractical. 2 MNK, BRD, WHM, BLM, BLU will give you a sufficient proc spread and easy 3 minute or less kills. Other DD can be substituted, but it seems to have the same damage penalties as plain skeletons.

Anyone know how Requiescat fairs against carabosse after benediction?

I just picked up this ws last night (been 5/5 Ruinator, Exenterator, Shijin for the longest time) and was enjoying the damage it did to elementals at 3/5 (1200 to eles).

I just did 100 cara gems (x.x) as bst/dnc for friends but gosh it's slow.

If I had to guess I would assume it wouldn't do anything different than normal, pretty sure it only applies to special resistances like the -25% to slashing on slime mobs whereas Carabosse just gains straight up -DT after benediction, don't know for sure though.

1) I would think no. Not even sure the HQ has much of a place anywhere, outside maybe an entropy set?

2) I think the general consensus is none, but I seem to see them EVERYWHERE on my server.

I used an autoexec thinger and did it while I was asleep. You can set it up to throw refresh in between barspell cycles.

I just used an XML, no autoexec needed. Had it cycle through the barspells, cast refresh when it wore off, and use a skillup food when needed.

If you could manage to outrun Chainspell, it seems theoretically possible.
