| Promathia Tips Well, we finally made it all the way to the big fight, and everyone told us how easy it is and how you can probably beat it with 5 and how with our setup there's no way that we can lose.
We're now 0/4, the last 2 losses came with it at less than 10%, the last 3 all from Sel'theus dying before we could finish off Promathia.
Our setup:
RDM/WHM (me)
PLD/WAR
DRK/THF
WAR/NIN
BLM/RDM
WHM/BLM
90% of the fight we're fine, then it goes and does some BS like AoE Stun > Comet > AoE Stun and kills the PLD before we can get a cure off. From there it's pretty much downhill, Prishe gets hate, Sel'theus just sits behind her and eats every frontal cone AoE and Meteor that gets tossed their way, by the time we recover and are trying to make the kill he's low and gets wiped out by an AoE.
Our strategy is basically like a Kirin fight, we kite it until the melee have TP, then stop, SC+MB, then kite again. The SC seems to work well, but we had bad luck with stuff like Promathia putting up physical shield right in between the two WS', so the second one misses(also making the SATA hate not happen.)
Our 3rd fight we had it to 3%, if it weren't for a couple of dispelled RR's we probably would have had it, but for various reasons we just cannot seem to be able to make the kill, as Sel'theus dies before we can even 2hr.
Do you guys have any tips or see any holes in our strategy? I'm trying hard to figure out if we're doing something wrong, or if we're just having really, really bad luck, because I don't know anyone who needed more than 3 tries to beat this thing. |
