Battle with Behemoth!

[matek]

YES! Finally our LS decided to go hunt Behemoth! There are all togather 18 members. 3 Dark Knights, 2 White Mages, 2 Black Mages, 2 Knights, 2 Bards, 3 Red Mages, 2 Monks and 2 Warriors. We built up our TP to 300 before starting the battle. Once the war begins, all of us uses the Single Handed Sword 200 skill: Spirits Within which took away this beast's 1/20's HP.

Behemoth has an estimated HP of 50K, with terribly high defence and evade rate, uses Tripple attack and Double attack, and each attack inflicts like 150-300 to a Lv60 Knight so if the triple attck hits a taru white mage... its going to be instant kill.:sweat:

After the battle started, Knights kept taking the target, healers and Mages keep healing, Bards use only Ballart I and I + Eregy Songs to enable MP regain, and others just kept attacking. After real day 1 and half hour battle, at last we slained this super strong monster, and got "Behemoth Bane" as our title ;)

Behemoth found! Ready for battle!

[Sindinista]

Congratulations! You must be really commited.

What does that Benemoth Bane do?

[matek]

Just a title for ppl to know you defeated behemoth. Thats all (lol)

But it dropped us Thunder Crawn(?), a quite strong Spear too ^^

[Slayer]

thats really cool congrats:biggrin:

[Trymidas]

After real day 1 and half hour battle???????

[Wizaga]

Wow! That was awesome! You guys killed them, makes me want to play even more!!!

Yeah...Behemoth has that many HPs...
was probably 90 minutes of "Help! I'm about to die!" from everyone...

[Smoejoe37]

I have a question. How does the other people know you killed him?? And where does it show it? BTW great JOB.

[Trymidas]

check this
scary......:sweat:

[Sheila]

Ooh nice!
BTW how many people does it take to kill Western Shandow?

People know it's killed because it has a rare pop and it's either there or not.

[Heavyarms03]

Heh, the western shadow looks like a drow, real cool. Square should make that a character race in the future.

[Trust]

damn, thats the kind of stuff i want to do, i guess, just some of the enemies you can't tackle without like a lot of characters, sounds awesome though, this is an off topic question, can any class use any weapon? and now about the behemoth, that shit looks scary as hell, i would've run o_o+

[Smoejoe37]

How do the people a round you know that you killed it? Does it show something? Could anyone help me out?

[Anya]

If they inspect you, your 'title' is printed in their chat wndow.

[Smoejoe37]

cool, i also have two more questions. what is that little thing to the the left of there name. Sometimes its blue. sometimes its looks like a gold bag? and what different types of ranks can yu have?

There are several different things that may appear next to a players name.

A colored luminous sphere represents a player who has a LinkShell activated. Linkshells are simply private chat lines for people to create and distribute...rather clanesque, but not officially. Different colors designate different LSs

A white circle with three blue dots represents a player that is Away. Just let's people know that they are AFK.

A red circle with a broken white line represents a player that has lost their connection, most (en and jp) describe this condition as R0 (from the connection status in the top right corner of screen. R0 = you aren't recieving packets from the server/big time latency(lag)). They aren't going to respond and may or may not simply disappear after connection failure.

The Bag next to the name indicates a player has items avaiable for sale via the Bazaar System. All one would need to do is inspect that character and click the Bazaaring button underneath the equipment window to purchase items. Many people do this and normally sit in crowded/high traffic areas for business.

As for ranks, players, currently, can be ranks 1-6. As you do missions (and eventually, turn in crystals) your rank bar will increase. once it's near full, a certain mission will be available to increase your rank. Rank is just a way of symbolizing progress in the actual story in the game. (Rank 1 has just started, Rank 6 has defeated the Shadow Lord) Also, certain conquest items are only available to people of a certain rank.

Don't get rank and title confused though.

You title is merely a subname given to indicate recent events in your characters history (for example, as listed above, those who slay Behemoth are bestowed with the title "Behemoth Bane", or one who just finishes the Beastmaster Advanced Job quest attains the title "Animal Trainer")

[shadow]

i forgot when FFXI is coming out can someone plezzzzz tell me

[Serpent]

As far as we know it might be March 5 as told by EBworlds web site :sweat: Cool picks by the way :thumbsup:

[auron]

i heard before that it took like 50 ppl to beat it, heh, guess not

[Plane of Dreams]

Thats ridiculuosly awesome, congrats and great pictures.

[matek]

thx guys.

>Sheila
Western Shadow can be beaten by Lv60x6 easily but the drop rate is hella low. ><;

hehe, I'm more interesting in Eastern Shadow and the bow it drops ><

[Nodachi]

One of the best threads in this topic to date heh thank you soo much:thumbsup: But from reading the posts i have a couple quick questions... one.. is level 60 the max level till the expansion hits? cuz ive seen a lot of level 60's and it seems rather respected as well i havnt seen any level 61 +. Lastly when Behemoth or any other NM drops a rare like that spear you said you received is only one givin to all 18 people or does everyone who allied get one? juss curious and again thanks for posting such a dope battle heh:thumbsup:

Walking Speed +12%? I'm not sure what else this could mean but... does it actually make you walk around faster? If so, I need to get me a pair. :thumbsup:

Though i havn't played the game i imagine it just affects your agi? it would be too awkward if some people in your party ran/walked at a different pace than you did or vise/versa heh

[Alex]

no, there is ability that makes you run faster. I saw it a couple of times already.

[Jherrith]

That's probably the thief's ability to run fast in order to flee battles.

[matek]

Strider Boots enable you to walk/run around fatster. Unfortunately, only Thieves and Ranges are able to euip it. ^^;

[xDonx]

BEHEMOTH LOOKS KICK ASS! That makes me want to get the game even more. All those people and they took behemoth down like in 90 mins. Thats got to be fun to fight like that.

[Saiyu]

grats, next is Serket? :cool:

[KamiMazi]

I was wondering.... Is Behemoth like the current hardest HNM? It seems like he is... If so, Square will probably unleash the harder HNM's on us later on.

[matek]

The current strongest HNM is a marlboro type monster called Capricious Cassie (C.C).

FYI, HNM Difficulty order:
Capricious Cassie >>> Serket > Behemoth > Roc = Simurgh > Lunberjack = King Artro > NM Demons

[Talis]

What if i may ask does HNM stand for?

[Chipmunk777]

i dunno what that stands for either. :) but, i recall seeing a pic before of several dead bodies lying about the behemoth :) it was a very disturbing picture ahhhhhhhhhh nightmares again ahhhhhhhhhhh /slap hmm, i've found that i'm slapping myself quite a bit lately... hmm, nice pics, makes me really wanna import now :) just to go huntin, and be lookin for the behemoth for hours, then to find him, and have him tear my tiny taru ass to pieces... ahh, thats the life :) cant wait to get this game
