Re: TP Burn
I must have some luck after all, because I've never had even a percentage of the bad luck some of you have had with TP Burns. Now I've had all the bad luck when it comes to Manaburns, but not TP Burns. Part of this has stemed from only doing these things with LS members who I know are top players, on top of players that I trust.

At Lv.71 I started to do some Burn parties Vs. Imps in the Mire. Tank, usually a NIN, melee with a big WS (DRG, WAR, & RNG usually), BLM, SMN, WHM, and myself as RDM. BLM and SMN would almost duo the Imp before it could decide which it hated more and take off after them. This worked amazing well until everybody and their Taru cousin flocked there. The SMN had some problems with Amnesia, but he usually had Garuda ready as soon as the Imp got to camp. So as soon as it was in range, BAM! 1200dmg Then the BLM would wait a second and then finish it off.

I think I've only had 1 bad TP Burn. Most of my usual Sky Burn members had things to do that night. So myself and one of the WARs decided to build our own group. BRD couldn't keep songs up on anybody, and the other WARs just didn't live up. My WAR buddy is exceptional. His Rampages were always 1~1.5k, the other WARs were having problems staying in the 500's.

I guess the only issue I have with TP Burns is that I can't find/build a group that isn't one. There's still one camp I like to hit that has VT-ITs at Lv.75. It's typically a PLD and BLM camp, but I have to pull people's arms to get them out there. Last time I went, I grabbed a SMN and BLM from the LS, and began the begging. Finally picked up a PLD, MNK, & DRK. With 3 MB's per Darkness Skillchain we sprinkled in Chain #6 a few times. We'd do it more often just can't get people together. "Left out" PLDs wanna go /NIN and TP Burn, BLMs wanna Manaburn, and all the SMNs are snatched up on WHM duty.
