Prime Advice can I have it?Follow
22 posts
After nearly a year of waiting it looks like Epitomeofgreatness is ready to go for Prime Advatar Fights. Our setup is Rdm/Blm, Rng/Nin (or Drk/Nin), War/Nin(or Mnk), Blm/Rdm, Pld/War/Nin (we are gonna try both) Whm/Smn. From the talk we are going after miss beautiful Garuda first. Does anyone have advice that might help us?
Gah I missed the WHM/SMN you listed, my bad.
Keep the BarXga spells up at all times.

I think they have a whm/smn^^
It is imperative to make sure the proper bar-spell is up at all times, preferably being cast by the member with the highest level of enhancing magic skill. This will greatly reduce the damge from avatar en-spell as well as their 2-hr.
Also, keep in mind that all enfeebling magic, other than spells of the element the avatar is weak against, will be resisted. This includes dispel. Garuda, for example, will resist the following spells: Slow, Silence, Blind, Flash, Dispel, Gravity, Choke, Rasp, Drown, Burn, Shock. Bind, Frost, and Paralyze should land with little to no problem as they are ice based (ice strong against wind).
Other than that, there's not much to these battles. Try to work out a skill chain and MB that the avatar is weak against to maximize damage, as they are quite resistant to melee damage. Keep the tanks healed, the proper bar-spell up, working enfeebles applied, and just wear them down.

As the others said, keep the BarAera spell up, and hammer it with ice magic~Garuda's weakness.
The problem with Garuda is that she uses Whispering Wind on herself a LOT, recovering 800+ each time...not sure if it can be stunned

not when there is nothing left to add,
but when there is nothing left to take away.

Don't start with Garuda! That's my suggestion. LoL. She's VERY annoying with that whispering wind which was healing for well over 1200 each time when I fought her. :-/
If you can time it right, fight on the day she's weak too (ice). Also as everyone said, BarAera is essential. Make sure to use it frequently and definitely recast right before 2hr (at 50% health).
Patience will take you a long way in these fights. Especially on Garuda.
