Just get clubs and cleave until 2100 jps. Become the stronkest

What's a good cleave target nowadays?

Lol with a decent set-up, you can cleave almost anything you want if I'm not mistaken. I was BSing around one day and found myself clearing the entire Moh Gates II area (the wkr warp) just spamming Subduction. Did it again in Reisin. As long as you aren't hitting things that are wind or magic resistant, sky *might* be the limit

But you're successful in Reisen and it is newer content than Escha-Ru'aun, so is sky really the limit?

What's the best way for a BLU to farm Plutons these days? Seems like soloing high tiers.
What D or VD are the most easily soloable by a semi well geared BLU? I saw Tenzen mentioned 2 pages back. Anything else worth trying?

VD Avatars. Leviathan and Ifrit being the weakest defensively. Just position yourself as far from your trusts as able to avoid them getting 1-shotted by Grand Fall or Meteor Strike. Would also be wise to slap on MDT yourself. The TP ready times are long enough for about anyone to react in time.

Thanks. I'll give em a try.

Yeah soloing is ideal. I just wanna farm plutons for my relics in an efficient way when no one is around to do any real content. Plus this way I don't have to share/rely on others to have enough merits to spam it.

Try wasting all your gil on AG and then seeing them pop up everywhere for a much cheaper price! As far as the avatar thing, you can actually avoid almost all of their ws if you fight at maximum allowed melee distance and just slight run back and it will cancel their ws.

You can just farm merit for everyone in pt and and do bc on the same run. It doesn't take long to get 75 merit in pt with both cor and blu (both jobs are required for efficient avatar runs)in pt since you can have blu aoe and get exp rolls.

And as for my dumb guide. I am messing around with a flow chart for weapon progression to assist people in their thought process and directly compare stats. Did it with the clubs so far cuz, EZ. Tell me what you guys think. If you care.
Speaking of Banana III, should find it a place in your flow chart for nuking weapons. I suppose it'd mess up the clubbing trend though.

A strong breeze or a somewhat unfavorable glare can one-shot Apururu. Bringing Arciela 1 around for avatars is a good idea for the AoE magic defense boost for your squishy trusts.

I have just tried D Ifrit with Arciela and mdb wasn't enough to save Apururu. We need a good galka healer trust :P

If you're lucky enough for Amchuchu to do Unda instead of some other dumb rune like he sometimes likes to do, Valiance can also be a great help to mitigate damage. Plus Fast Cast!
