PUP solos in Abyssea?Follow

Burts with 3 Regain Atma (VV, Sea Daughter, and one other)

Had to use pet meds, Healing Salve II and Liberal Repairs, keep a dark maneuver up for Canibal Blade

Got cocky and ran in for a few Stringing Pummels which was not a good idea. Ended up grabbing hate and needing to use meds for myself. For some stupid reason I was /rdm, if I was /dnc with the regain Atma, that would have been a better idea.

After grabbing hate thought I would kite it while Valoredge whittle away to get hate again but either the pathing was off or Brooder has an increased movement speed because VE couldn't keep up. Maybe that plague aura gives a reduced movement speed.

It hurt when it would use Binary Absorption and Trinary Absorption back to back.

VE had Equalizer, Steam Jacket, Mana Jammer, Strobe, Blaze Spikes, Armor Plate II, Hamermill, Turbo Charger among others I can't recall.

Was a very close (was in double digit red at the end) and fun fight, killed the last 6% with a Stringing Pummel. Got a Teak Log and the mage shoes.

Not abyssea but realted to Empyrian Weapons - Solod Farruca Fly both with Burt-VE and Tanking with WHM Frame.

As a result, also solod Jyeshtha tanking with whm frame.

Has anyone tried Deelgeed?

But the question is, were they terrified of Oniwaka afterwards?

Comedie soloed Audumbla in Abyssea - Uleguerand using DG,MC and VV atma. I used Burts and subbed NIN. Had to DEA 7-8 times, particularly near the end.
Used eraser to get rid of plague and kept dark up.
Long but safe battle at 40 minutes. Used no oil or items.

Was zenith, ducal guard, and mounted champion if I remember right. zenith was probably not needed, Oniwaka never came that close to dying even with only +1 oils. Need ventriloquy, role reversal, repair with oils, and naturally burrito claws for super regain, and as for sub, probably whm or sch for reraise in case you get unlucky. you probably won't though. If your automaton dies, just DEA or activate and use vent on sedna, and deploy.

Don't be afraid to role-reversal either, you won't be fighting yourself so mounted champion will fairly quickly bring you back to full hp without having to cure.

As far as attachments, I went all out defensive, and used mana jammer I + steam jacket for water attachments. I used fire, dark, and water maneuvers to boost Oniwaka's magic defense, since the NM is rather spell happy.

All in all an easy fight compared to some others I've done in abyssea.

(And yes, the alliance was terrified at oniwaka afterward. )

Adamastor and Grandgousier solo'd.

Anyone ever trying soloing Overking Apkallu and Funereal Apkallu. Ive had terrible luck with seals so far so Im looking into some solo options once I get some useful atma (I currently have none).

I might wing it and pop on some EVA gear, sub NIN and go out there and try it just to see how it goes just to get an idea.

Thank you for that.

Ill be working towards getting my NIN back to subjob level in the next few weeks once I get Utsusemi Ni. Hopefully I come across some Atma parties in that time as well so I can get rolling on this.

They are not viable as a pet solo strategy. If you're just soloing then you tanking and your auto healing is better anyway.

Make a shout group, and go with two or three people. Nothing is more annoying than helping someone you know get some seals, emperian items, +2s, and someone is soloing the mob forever with no proc.

It is like the people who sit there in PJ shouting "xxx seal, {Can I have it?}" as if shouting for 0/1 on three other seals is hard to do.

You can have no friends in this game, be all alone, and do the following shouts for the +2s.

PUP head +2, either farm Uld one jewel at a time (H2H emperian items are a draw here if you care about the weapon) with a NIN, WHM, and BLM. Cconsidering how many items that drop from him it is not hard to get that). Turul for the Lokis and you take the Jewel. You can go farm the T3 ZNM for the highlands and shout for the atma and take the jewel. Finally you can do some +2/atma farm from that Tit corse in attowa as well.

Body +2, can do a joint Bennu/Hedhedjet farm for people. You can do an Amhuluk farm shout. You can also work out a T1 and T2 Khimira shout.

Hands +2, You can do a CC shout since people want the win, lanterns, and +2s. Dragua is easy to pop and you can get two people on the cards, one on the other item, and one on the emperian and go kill it. Durinn shout for the atma and a card is possible too.

Legs +2, I won't even bother listing anything besides Sobek. Cap azure on two murex, farm pearl on colibri and amber on what ever. Go try and claim the KI mobs while you get the boxes for them or just FC burn.

Feet +2, Briareus, Sedna, and Durinn again. One Durinn on an atma run can get you half way there, and people always seem to want the feet.


No reason to solo the +2 mobs unless you want to see if you can for the fun and challenge.

EDIT: Yes, these now have three pop spots, but generally the person sits there soloing the single ??? or time spawn KIs too. Just as an inb4.
