| Re: Looking for help to get Carbuncle Mitts (Ifrit Server) I've done this fight for a friend. The force spawn point is located upstairs behind the Granite doors requiring a Prelate key to get through, where you will see Hover Tanks and more 3rd Tier Tonberries. Prism Powders recommended over Invisible.
Once you've reached the spawn point, there are 3 Tonberries roaming around the room. You should dispatch them first or they will cause problems for your NM fight. Try not linking them when you pull, unless you have a large group with you. If I recall there is a BLM Tonberry and I forget the other 2.
The NM can summon any random element, and can use Searing Light (Carbuncle) multiple times throughout the fight. Has the regular Tonberry TP moves e.g.: Throat Stab. It's best to do this in a larger group. My friend died as his 75 PLD to Throat Stab followed by Searing Light and Tanking duties were taken over by my gf 72 PLD at the time ... who then bit the dust to another Throat Stab + Searing Light, lol.
So I tanked it the last 30-ish % (72 Thf/Nin). Didn't hit that hard when he did manage to land when shadows were down. |
