FFXI: Prom-Holla thinking out loud
Feb. 1st, 2005 10:15 amIf you're going on the Prom run on Friday and you haven't already, check Ead's CTY journal -- Beanie left really good information in the comments.
On the extra buffs we need to keep up: I can add Arcane Circle. It only lasts 1 minute and recast is 10 minutes, so it'll be a one-time only use thing (or at least it better be!). Having the boss steal Last Resort from me (ups attack, lowers def) might be helpful? I know it makes my own HP fall a lot faster when I use it. :p (Hm, but I guess that's for hate reasons, so better skip it as well.) This is going to be tricky, not using good things because we don't want them stolen and used against us... (Soul Eater would be very, very painful to get stolen. How much HP does the boss have? 10% of that number on top of its normal hits could be fatal! Must remember not to use it.)
I wish I had more buffs I could add to the party, but that's about it from me. I'll keep SA up, but that will last only as long as it takes me to hit the thing. (loldrk so slow)
loneguardian, I might hit you up to make some poison potions for me (us?) if you don't mind. I just need to look at prices and see if it's cheaper that way (I suspect it might not be cheaper, since it's a low level skilling item). Those au laut drink thingies regen HP? I might buy some of those from you as well, so I can counteract the poison we'll be drinking.
...it's only Tuesday? Friday seems so far off! This fight is going to be so crazy! :) But at least we shouldn't have to run around like mad to try to keep being able to target it, that'll make things be a lot easier (for me, at least).
Funny, but I'm more worried about actually making it to the boss rather than beating him.
Sylf said that only 3% of FFXI players have beaten all three bosses. If that's still the current number, woo woo woo! Imagine being part of such a small group. :) I can't wait to see the meadow! Though I suppose I'll probably die there, since when the cap comes off I'll still only be in the high thirties.
Eee!
