Shinryu Solo On THF

Ok, so out of boredom I try this as THF. Run in, first ws staggers him. Pop brew. A.Edge > A.Edge > .....

I begin to DC....

I really have that kind of luck.

Did my first solo brew on Shinryu on thf with max TH including Atma of Dread.

Got lucky with blue proc being Shadowstich...because I don't have Evisceration.

Drops were:
Mail
Torque
Knife
Cape
Belt

Let's just say I'm not going back there anytime soon. ^_^!

I go on WHM during blunt and pray its not H2H <_<

Cata and Flash Nova are pretty rape. Also so is Black Halo > Hexa > Light > MB Holy :3

ugh wish i had that kinda luck..

So, yeah, I have been trying this today. The plan has been working well, except that he has yet to change to dagger for blue proc and sometimes I can not get the clue in two WS's. I will keep trying a bit more then maybe just wait to see if a friend or two can help.

Yeah, bad luck is bad luck. It happens.

Go before blunt, engage the second blunt begins. As long as you pull it slightly back after engaging, you'll have three chances to try again. The odds of your 66% chance of having the correct proc failing you three times are pretty scarce.

Like I said, WHM/THF is a dramatically lesser headache than any other job combination.

honestly I read through the whole thread because I was interested in how thf would actually survive this and found not a single hint on that :/
people say you go in thf/sam or thf/rng and then ws to check your blue proc... I dont know about shinryu but for me it sometimes takes way more than 2 ws to get info about blue proc on normal nms. then the biggest point, how is the thf going to survive this? with 3 damage atmas he will likely just oneshot you with the initial -gaIV spell, no shadows either (not that they would help) and the hits are not exactly weak or have low accuracy. using a lot of temp items you still can only have magic OR melee immunity up at the same time right? might make yourself immune to magic and spam your temp potion items to survive I dont see how that could work. so then its not dagger for blue, you die and then?
seriously I saw the thread and thought "thats not gonna work" and reading through I saw no description that it would work on a regular basis, the odds of you just dont get any hint on blue before he kills you are high, dont know how many magic immunity items are there fools drink fools powder? so at best after 2 tries youll just get killed by the initial gaIV, not to mention engaging him weakened he'd just kill you with a physical hit wouldnt even need a tp move. how would ever someone zombie shinryu to find out blue? are we playing the same game here?
so could anyone that has done it please give a description on how it is done? and maybe an honest estimation on how many tries it actually works. I think that might be what the op was asking for too.

and I cant get around laughing about khimairas comment bashing someone for a horrible choice of atmas and providing no new information and then he does just the same. seriously, why post if you have nothing to say but bash others? I dont get it

Any of the following jobs easier?:
RDM
BLU
NIN
BLM


If you thf/sam you can sekkanoki run up (unweakened only) and get two ws's done quick. Then you start moving slowly away from shin (no more than 13 yalms or else he will draw in. Once you get to a suitable place (about 20 yalms from his "spawn point") die. Reraise and wait for unweaken..use temps and try again.

If you do it right, you can repeat this 4 times before 14:00.

Success!!!

Drops:
