I asked who the rdm was that said they got the chest to drop I can't find it in this thread.

Based on what people were saying, I was considering trying to spam seraph blade on it, and put a bunch of debuffs.

Thoughts?

The RDM that we had in our party was Torzak, you've probably seen him on our server. He hasn't been on much lately now that Rdm has been phased put of Sorti. But if you known or seen him you'd probably agree that he's probably the best Rdm on the server. He has a incredible Seraph Blade build too. If I seen him on again I'd definitely pick his brain on everything he used in our Sorti runs in the past. But i can tell you the buffs we used for him was magic buffs. wizards roll and once we started using Geo we did acuman/malaise for him. And looking back at everything I'm definitely leaning towards it being the Seraph Blade light damage that caused the chest to drop.

Edit: and yes I'd start there with the enfeebles and Seraph Blade, also make sure to keep it dispel'd because apparently the pixies can buff the unicorn as well. Maybe even try a enspell on it because I'm sure that was used too.

I think we're overlooking the very basic fact that this is a unicorn. Instead of killing the thing, why not befriend it and go on magical adventures? It will hand over the metal when you have learned the true meaning of friendship.
unicorns often go hand in hand with rainbows right? Maybe there's a hidden pride flag, somewhere at the ceiling of the zone, marking the spot where the horn is ought to be s

Don't you need to be a maiden to befriend a unicorn?

Someone with 1 post count so far.

No avatar profile

For this reason I wouldn't put much stock in his claim.

Also, does anyone else here remember when you could cast dia on the acuexes and just melee them down for chests as long as you didn't weaponskill?

It's likely the objective has changed since he got the chest assuming he was telling the truth.

Guys you aren't going to believe this but it wasn't crits from the front.

No in all seriousness I went in on mnk to try to break the horn and was unable to.
I could not get to the side of the head because I was solo and personally believe this is why I was unable to break the horn.

Is anyone familiar with the horn mechanic, on previous iterations of this monster?

Killed it three times with SAM, BRD, RDM. Tried casting songs next to it, cast light enfeebles on it via songs and RDM debuffs, nuked it with Banish in succession, used Light damage WS, killed it next to the Bitzer.

The only observation I could make is that it began to glow when it used its frontal TP moves. Using a WS on it at the same time seemed to remove the aura immediatly.

Was the aura up when it died?

Unicorns like Ambrosia, Nectar of the gods. So clearly you have to have the Ambrosia food effect active when you kill it. Or you know throw some *** skittles at it.

Just went in to try some things, no success yet. Going back in an hour and a half. It probably has something to do with the fact that there are only 2 Veela in the first room, when all other "Orgy Room" mob types have 3 in the first room. Going to try to see if I can find a 3rd Veela.

checking the unicorn page it lists 2 moves that remove status ailments, doesn't specify wether erase or -na type tho. I suppose a RDMs routine covers both types so maybe the gimmick is a minimum amount of status ailments removed?

But i think the whole status removal shebang has already been mentioned, did anyone try crits from the front yet?

Thanks for the info btw. Someone noted later on in the thread that it's possible the chest pop mechanics were changed for him. However, now I'm curious if enlight damage on him might work too... ygnas trust or pld enlight II?

I was looking at the chart on the 2nd page and noticed the two setups that got chest were mnk with monberaux(spelling?) and rdm. Could it be possible that its something to do with no healing magic? If the rdm was sanguine blading and monberaux does monberaux things.... ehh who knows.
