Is anyone soloing T3 Einherjar now?
By Zoltar 2014-08-06 09:26:13
I've seen a few people enter Einherjar solo this week but didn't get any feedback from them, all were on SCH/BLM
Can anyone confirm if SCH is the only solo for Einherjar at the moment? Me personally I'd like to think a 119 BST could clear it with pink birdy but idk
Thoughts/ideas?

Don't think there is enough time, even for SCH/BLM, to solo Einherjar before time expires.
Still got 10 minutes to kill everything, unless they get lucky on the T1.
Still better to get a group of 5 people together and clear T3s. Costs the same too.

I doubt BST can do it in 10 mins. AoE with a strong magic damage set is the way to go. Buff before entry, gather em up and spam t1 -aga spells

Takes me about 8 minutes trio boxing with thf/brd/blm to clear tier3. I have my doubts that any job can do that solo, since you'll also need to clear the boss at the end.

If anyjob can do it, its blu. with the update to BLU Physical spells, I wouldn't be surprised to see more Whirl of Rage spams of T1s and T2s.

well you can duo/trio it simple enough.
Solo is do-able, but it's really up to the whim of the rooms you get.
BLM can tear shizz up I know from personal experience.
Also, just FYI if you're doing it JUST for Amps you don't need to kill the boss, he drops no amps.

Yep, I solo'ed T3 successfully on BLU but its hit or miss with the spawns you get. 2x AoE magic job is an easy clear, have been doing this 2x BLU recently

All you people that attempted solo, did you kill mega boss? Reason being I got some good advice on a BST solo for T3 and am told you only have to kill the 2-3 waves for the 1920 ichor

for the record, a friend of mine is soloing it everyday on RDM.
As stated, you don't need to kill the boss to get max amps.

I have been soloing Einherjar for a little bit to get the rest of the ichor I need for my mythic. I have yet to clear a T3 room in 10 minutes, but I have gotten close several times.
Closest I got was like 7 mobs left, but the Vampire MB charmed me the last minute of the run and I couldn't finish it.
I was really lucky on that run too. Soulflayers initial pop, Chigoes and single bombs with Vampire MB second pop. All 3 sets are super easy and fast to kill using WoR and Embalming Earth spam.

Yes, you can solo the 1920 on jobs that can AoE well. but probly wont kill the boss (to help cover the 60k entry).
Except for chigoes. I hate chigoes :'(

I thought Einherjar's entry minimum was still 6 people?
Am I missing something?

You can enter by yourself, but your time limit is much shorter if you don't have enough people. That's generally not an issue with iLevel equipment, etc.

Any gimp token BST with a Grasshopper can solo Einherjar now.

Oh really? Thanks for clearing that up.
I was under the impression that you actually needed 6 people just to be able to enter, like how Nyzul and Salvage was in the olden days. Except I think those two events it was a minimum of 3... maybe?
Gah it's been ages since I did anything in Aht Urgahn...

I soloed this as a pup with a rdm pet on T3 several times using ae weapon skills. It is hit or miss depending on the mobs, but it is doable. Never got less than 1400.

10 min instead of the usual 30 if you are less than 6 ppl, iirc

It's soloable for geo (Idris). It's just annoying on the bosses if you don't manage time effectively.

What? Last time I tried to enter few months back you had to have a minimum of 3.. Was that changed or? Lol I'm gonna go try to enter again see what happens. This sounds like you can enter with min of 1 now =))
er Edit: you got extremely time limited. IIRC, I got 6 minutes until I was booted.

BLU with Subduction can clear everything, no problem. 5-6 minutes unless you get 3 waves and lots of HP on the monsters. Remember, boss doesn't need to die, he gives no points, so if you time out fighting, it's not a big deal. BLM should also easily be able to do this.

BST and BLU can do it easily. The chapuli pet is the most common one I see.
I've done it on SCH/BLM quite a few times. Keep Regen up, open with Kaustra if the mood strikes you, helix the bosses, and spam AoE nukes. It cuts down time if you have a Fast Cast alternation set, and possibly GearSwap to swap it in and out for you. That said, I do it manually with equipsets and it works just fine.

Whirl Claws works fine, it also has a larger radius and only costs 1 charge.
