Re: Beyond Infinity: Limit Break 99

Is there a 10 minute timer on that fight? I guess I could settle for timing out and count it as "not losing", claim a victory on principle.

Re: Beyond Infinity: Limit Break 99

If a Red Mage can't still solo the world, then we've got nothing left but the feather in our hat.

I've yet to see a RDM solo ANYTHING meaningful in under 10 minutes.

Is it possible? Maybe, just not before you time out of the fight.

UPDATE

Rarab Tail: Not only does it make Tutori run around like a mad man. While under the effect of the tail he also takes much more damage. Reports of him taking 100-300 damage off a Tier4 Nuke from a BLM changed to 1100-1500 while he was stunned from the Tail.

Teams of x6 mage jobs seem to work well against him. Making use of 2 Tails you can keep him locked for a full minute while everyone nukes the crap out of him. Other combinations of jobs would also work I suppose, but it's useful information know anyway.

*Edit* This is also the case for his natural Physical Damage cap... although due to his constant running around, it's much harder to hit him without some form of stun.

Jobs that can utilize Nuking Spells or Ranged attacks are very useful in this fight. If you have access to SMN, BLM, SCH, RNG, COR, BST or PUP... you should prove to be effective in dealing damage while he is disabled.

SMN Burn FTW?

Speaking of which, has anyone figured out just wtf an eternal nightmare is? Is it his super-sleep that he noramlly does in the fights againts him? (i.e. damage will not wake the target)

So the key to winning is to run backwards while you fight?

Everytime I do a fight like this, I never remember that. Thanks for reminding me Armando.

Re: Beyond Infinity: Limit Break 99

Hundred Fists hasn't been the problem so much as the back-to-back Asuran Fists or Victory Smite that takes the Paladin down before it shows on screen.

He's gonna rip your guts out then feed them to you.

That's not going to stop me from trying it at least once.

I wouldn't be the Red Mage I am today if I didn't tackle stupidly powerful enemies just for the sake of tackling stupidly powerful enemies.

Update

In order to access the fight, you only need to have 1 Seasoning stone. Trade that stone to the Moogle next to Maat and receive a CS. After the CS, you can speak to Maat who will tell you to go see his counterpart in Bastok (Degenhard - Bastok Markets I-10). Degenhard will ask you to bring him a Seasoning Stone, a Fossilized Bone and a Fossilized Fang. Yes... you need to get ANOTHER Seasoning Stone. Thankfully, they are only EX, so you can easily farm up 2 of them ahead of time and hold onto them.

(Rare)Fossilized Fang
Where: Dangruf Wadi
From: Trimmer, Natty Gibbon, Goblin Bushwacker
*All mobs can be found in the 3 large open areas at the far north of the map. Advised to grab page 8 in the Grounds Tome at the entrance as it's requirements are x5 Trimmers and x2 Gibbons*

Where: Bostaunieux Oubliette
From: Blind Bat

Where: The Shrine of Ru'Avitau (Needs Confirmation)
From: Aura Sculpture (Needs Confirmation)

(Rare)Fossilized Bone
Where: The Boyahda Tree
From: Snaggletooth Peapuk, Viseclaw, Mourning Crawler
*All mobs found on the 3rd map*

Where:???

(Ex)Seasoning Stone

Where: Fei'Yin
From: Wekufe, Sentient Carafe, Balayang


*This list is largely incomplete, but these are the confirmed mobs that drop these items. These items will only drop if the mob procs DCor higher to you at your level. Certain Mobs fall just short of DC at 95 and even more of them as you reach higher levels (assuming you're helping someone else)*

From my experience, the Seasoning Stone has a much higher drop rate (around 1/10) from the Peapuks in the tree and a much lower drop rate from everything else (1/25ish).

After collecting all 3 items, return and trade them to Degenhard for your reward, an Old Rarab Tail. When used on Atori-Tutori ??? he will run around avoiding you for 30 seconds rather than attacking. It is suggested to time this use for when Atori-Tutori uses Hundred Fists... to offset the devastating damage. Keep in mind that his Hundred Fists lasts for 45 seconds... but the Rarab Tail only lasts for 30.

Testimonials have been made stating that the fight can be done with a skilled party of x6 pet jobs (surprised?). Many people are only collecting the Rarab tail as a precaution. The fight can be won without it. That being said, it obviously makes it a lot easier.

Re: Beyond Infinity: Limit Break 99

Were you expecting them to just HAND it to you? There was a fight to break the lvl 70 cap, it's only obvious there was gonna be a fight for 95-99

No, I'm glad they made it a grueling fight. I'm pissed that the overall reward of being 99 is rather shitty looking at the list of job adjustments. The new WS are largely shit too, according to BG. However as I just posted in my new thread, in the next update lv 99 Relic-class weapons are going to just shit on everything instead of being the marginal improvement they once were at 75~95 (excluding empyreans which for the most part have been badass from day 1)

I intend to find out.

Fuck that teamwork nonsense. If a Red Mage can't still solo the world, then we've got nothing left but the feather in our hat.

Re: Beyond Infinity: Limit Break 99

Oh that's awesome, so it's hard as hell AND mostly pointless.

Thanks SE.

Re: Beyond Infinity: Limit Break 99

It was good knowing you Cid. There's a video of a PLD being supported by x2 WHM, x1 COR, x1 BRD and x1 RDM... and wiping after 5 minutes. He was the uber buff god... and he went down like a sack of potatoes. I wish you luck. What a waste. I hardly knew ye'.
