I was wondering (more specifically towards Tarus) if anyone has done this before? and if you have, any suggestions/strats that you might offer for it. 
Yay, Ty for this Eohmer~

Nothing really special, except the NIN spammed Shuriken to hurt the Mithra. | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 07-22-2007, 01:28 AM | #3 (permalink) | | Fence Sitter Brain of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Location: UK Posts: 1,342 Style: Dark - Version 5 Thanks: 53 Thanked 91x in 68 Posts Gil: 4,594 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 4,594 Donate | Re: ENM 60: Automaton Assault I've done the Elvaan one a lot. As a taru, you would lose the really squishy one in favour of the Elvaan - who is weak to skillchains. I used to do this as rdm/whm, with a nin/war and our third member would either come as rng or mnk depending on what he had been on earlier in the day.
Start with one, either on the left or right, and just work your way through. Even if you fail the first time, no xp loss - it is a really easy bc. Now I just wish the damn mage earring would drop for me...
Oh and a mage with poison potions is a smart move to counteract Shockwave. 2 should last the whole fight.

If those in melee have shadows, they won't get slept. I was in there meleeing with daggers and enspells (which tore the Galka up, 30+ per hit). | | ::Quote Selected:: | | 07-22-2007, 08:59 AM | #5 (permalink) | | Fence Sitter Brain of Knowledge Join Date: May 2006 Location: UK Posts: 1,342 Style: Dark - Version 5 Thanks: 53 Thanked 91x in 68 Posts Gil: 4,594 Bank: 0 Total Gil: 4,594 Donate | Re: ENM 60: Automaton Assault Hehehe my Thunder IIs were doing nearly 750 damage - as rdm.

Sounds like it might not be too hard if set up right? =p

A nin can spam shirukens for damage to mithra, a mnk can destroy the Hume, nin and rdm together can destroy the galka. But it can be done with odd settings - just try and make sure you have as many options covered as possible.
