3-5 Info Wanted~

What set-up did you use, and what's your record :)?

Diablos?

We use pld..and drk blu blu for stuns I think we even had a blm and whm for cures. Have whm and blu's get juices for a solid refresh in case MP is an issue, When we fought we didn't go for record we just went for win. As long as Nightmare doesn't go off the fight is wicked easy, if it does its a little more interesting. Have you dd's do there job and have the blu's either rotate a headbutt stun order kinda (isn't recast like 5 sec?) or just have 1 focus on stun and the other focused on ***-kicking and the fight shouldn't even need 2 hours, and should be over in 15 or so min..I really don't remember how long it took us to kill him..sorry!

First I made sure everyone had a Pso'Xja pass. It made life good.

Then I went WHM RDM DRK BLU DD NIN(or PLD works just fine).

Then I had everything get poipots.
Got everyone to have pots and a yag drink and stuff for the BLU and DRK.

All the DD's had to sub nin to unburden the healers.

RDM goes /BLM for an eleseal silence and other enfeebs.

And I checked wiki for tile placements. Think it was bottom right tile and two rows ahead where the DDs with their back against the wall.

Drk and Blu are to lock stun the thing.

And then just go nuts. Don't bother converting if you're an RDM, it will pull hate, you will die, there is always a DOT on you, and what not.

To be honest, there is no real reason for this topic, a million strats exist on wiki for it!

BLU/NIN, MNK/NIN, DRG/NIN, WHM/BLM. Save TP for Stun WS's (Shoulder Tackle, Leg Sweep, Flat Blade). Highly recommend BLU and WHM have yagudo drinks and ethers. No 2hr needed.

Side note, people actually go to set the records on mission fights?

NIN, DRK/NIN x3, WHM, RDM

Keep everyone hasted, setup a stun order, have your NIN spam ele wheel. Have your DRK's dual wield axes, and hold TP for emergency Stuns. Have your RDM debuff and dispel as necessary. Make sure everyone stands in the proper spots on the grid so they don't get dropped below. You should stand like below:

X X S X X
O X X D M
X X X X X
X O X X X
X X W O X

S = Where Diablos spawns
D = Diablos
M = Melee
W = WHM/RDM
O = Tiles that won't drop
X = Tiles that will drop

Treat it as an endurance fight (it really isn't) and its cake.

Edit: Forgot about Dispelling phalanx, swap a WHM for a RDM.
