I have been wanting to fight this NM in abyssea La Theine for awhile now for Tumbler Trunks but I don't know anyone who has fought this NM.

Can someone give me a strategy and party set up for this NM?

I'm not going to pay 900k for these trunks if the NM can be killed with like 6 people like the Thew Bomblet NM.

-Has Endoom which may reset the hate of the player it is inflicted upon
-Uses Disorienting Wail; radial AoE Amnesia
-Seems to spam Roar; 10' radial AoE Paralysis
-Frequently Triple Attacks

25000-30000 HP

Easily stunned and from what I've heard easily eva tanked. Obviously good to have somebody who can back you up though, his endoom is pretty nasty. RDM BRD backline with some combination of DNC, THF, NIN, and MNK tanks should make short work of him.

He's pretty easy really, DD/NINs (MNKs are good since they don't lose much DoT from Amnesia) and standard healing works. Endoom didn't seem to proc very often when I fought it.

hate you >_>; We popped him MNK/NIN BLU/NIN WHM/SCH BLM/RDM and couldn't remove doom for anything. Was a joke aside from that though, would have gone down fast if doom hadn't screwed us over.

THF or NIN high-evasion Tank with cor eva-rolls and brd eva-songs working very well, just take a look at your shadows. that endoom will proc if u got hit. just have some time and

My LS killed him with 12. Using THF and NIN evasion tanks. NM has horrible acc. We were light on healing with just Sch and Rdm. I went as Bard and mambox2 the tanks. Killed 2/2, pants 1/2, and got key item on second. im sure this can be killed with Evasion tanksx2 rdm whm brd and cor or blm easy peasy. I wouldnt recommed using Dnc as an tank unless you have a personal paralyna mage. Hope this helps GL!

I don't either =\ Been focusing on Brooder when I run with friends (need one more pair >.<) and it seems like all my shell cares about is Mictlantecuhtli, Chukwa, Cuelebre, and random La Theine NMs. Needs more Ovni, zone bosses, atma NMs, etc ; ;

Trio'd with THF THF BRD. The THFs will need good evasion builds and either mambo/mambo or march/mambo. Can bring a RDM to make it smoother but basically if he hits you hate will reset and the other THF will take hate so healing isn't a huge issue. I would also suggest picking up a stalwart tonic to make the fight go a bit faster, and obviously at least a stack of holy water in case doom sticks.

mnk/nin x2, whm, brd, cor, killed multiple times easily. He spams ws (wail/roar) so often that I see no need for an evasion setup. I went through a stack of holy water just because I had it on me but not needed unless you're very unlucky.
