RDM(weapons capped @40 a plus) wanted
Killbishop and I(shackleton) are starting a set party for Promy missions. We are both on pm 2-5. If you are interested in a set party that meets every Sat morning at 12pm est 9am pst leave a post here. So far we have:
Shackleton Whm
Killbishop War or Drg
bya Thf/nin
gun Nin/war
Warri Pld/war
If you have a job that would fit please post your name and lvl so i can get this going. Would really love to do 2-5 next sat. I would like to do a fight a week so during the week ppl can get all the talking out of the way and be ready to fight sat mornings. Probally only going to do a fight a week so ppl dont feel like its a chore but the real goal is to get Sea access and see the story line. Set parties seem to be the best way to go since ppl can prepare for battles ahead of time. Thanks and hope to see 4 ppl post here that have a job that will fit and are avaiable at that time every sat.
**eidted to add bya and gun not sure if they are willing to get up every sat but they said they would for this one. Now all that i think is needed is a Pld and Rdm. Going to try the aggro tank/RR method with pld whild rdm, nin, war, thf kills one at a time.

well due to one member having to go to the DMV to work on a license this time will be moved back till a little later in the day. Not by much hopefully but we are still looking for a pld and rdm if you are still trying to get this done let me know. Please dont make me shout in jeuno for a 5th and 6th ><.
Thanks

i'm a 66 rdm that just finished the promy missions. if 2-5 is the first fighting mission after that, i'd be glad to join.
It is not, in fact. You need to get a party together to kill the minotaur in the Phomiuna Aqueducts first. A list of CoP and other missions in the order they must be completed is here: http://ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/quests.html?fqtype=Mission
ps the california dmv sucks.

No offense, but I can already tell you that your gonna lose with that set up. You need a RDM/NIN tank/kiter, 2 whms, nin/war, DD and a BLM.
Or another one: 3 NINs, and a 3 WHMs. I know by my LS complaining on how hard it is. lol. I need it. So, if you need a BRD, or a WHM... /tell me.

You only need those kind of jobs if you're doing the kiting strategy. Another strategy includes a PLD who aggros all three, but doesn't act on any of the mobs. You can mass cure that PLD and you won't pull hate unless the PLD acts on them.
So apparently you can just pick off the mammets one by one with the other four members.

I've heard many times that a thf/nin can be as effective as a rdm/nin as a kiter, that a nin/war can kite, that a thf makes a fine DD, etc. Please don't start telling us we're going to fail before we even try; that's really not fair. Plus I get really sick of people insisting that you can only do these missions with one ideal group. If that were true, nobody would ever get anything done.
Successful party setups reported by others in that thread:
NIN/WAR
BST/WHM
SMN/WHM
WHM/BLM
RNG/NIN
BLM/WHM
PLD/WAR
MNK/WAR
WAR/MNK
WHM/BLm
SMN/WHM
RDM/NIN
NIN/WAR
NIN/WAR
MNK/NIN
WAR/NIN
RNG/NIN
WHM/BLM
PLD/WAR
PLD/NIN
SMN/WHM
SMN/WHM
WHM/BLM
BLM/WHM
Gun beat this with NIN, MNK, BST, RDM, WHM, BLM. None of these bear any resemblance to your "You're going to die unless you use these party" setups, and the first time I tried this I went with one of those "ideal" parties, which failed spectacularly. So now I'm going to go with people I know and trust, and if we fail, well, we fail. But please don't tell us we're going to fail just because you think you know something we don't. It's really discouraging and unfair.
ps - thanks Roin :)

I understand this mission is hard but if you prepare and bring the nesecarry stuff I think we will be fine. We are going for the Pld aggro tank method. If this does not work you lose exp for a lvl 40 caped fight oh well you can replace that with one escort quest if you have too. Plus there can be raise 3's after the fight if wehave a total wipe. Since the area you prepare for the fight is uncapped, if alla's walk through is correct.
This is not some crazy idea that i came up with. It has worked for other ppl so I figured I have some friends of this job type why not try it. Again it comes down to this being a game that i play. Doing quests, missions, and random things with friends make this game fun for me.
Good luck to Andy and all who do this hard mission on there way to Sea.

Well since Andy said so, maybe you all should just give up! Pffft
Dont listen to horseshyt like that. There are many, many PT setups that can complete this as long as the people behind the toons are not tards.
I have done this as my PLD AND as my NIN and both were just as successful. In total, Ive probably done this fight 8 or 9 times for many people AND with many different PT setups as not everyone has several jobs they can choose from.
The main thing is to discuss your game plan before entering and make sure everyone is on the same page. Yellow liquids do help if you have them. Bring plenty of hi-pots and ethers/juices for mages and have fun and Good Luck.

War thanks for your post. I will try and get in touch with you tomorrow to talk about it a bit but you seem to fit what we need so, I would love to have you come along. As i put in the second post this will me more like early afternoon for the east coast and morning for pacific time. I will also edit the first post to add your information. Depending on how fast bya can get done with the dmv. Either way this beats shouting in jeuno for a 2-5 pick up group.
I already inviested in 6 yellow liquids to make sure that we were able to have some. I did not want sat morning to come around and there be none on the AH ><. Hi-pots Yag drinks ethers all a plus if you can buy them do so, if you can make them or know a friend who can make them cheap for you then thats even better.
Any rdm's out there that still need this we have one spot open.

So yeah, we beat the sh[b][/b]it out of this. SMN SMN WHM NIN WAR THF. No contest. 9 minutes, 56 seconds. So no, you don't HAVE to do it in any way. ;P Congratulations to Shackleton, Killbishop, Bimbonautor, Saibankan, me (lolz), and a big thank you to Gunslinger for doing this again to help us out. :D
woot thank you and congratulations to all who got this done today.
