BLM can solo primes? o_O Heard of RDM and WHM doing it but not BLM... how is that done?

Oh how I loathe(sp?) these... lol. Although, I find WHMs wipe to them more commonly than others(save melee, they usually don't stand a chance without mage's buffs). I've been lucky enough to only have it happen twice though, how many have you been through? :D


Three times. I really wish I'd kept better count of how many total runs I've done, but I've only been able to keep track of the deaths >_< I'd say I've done around 50-60 runs in all, maybe?

My guess is that it's around a 5% (1 in 20) chance for it to land fully unresisted, assuming you've got your Bar-spell up and your Enhancing is at an acceptable enough level to push your magic "evasion" up to the cap.

I really hate the randomness factor of Bar-spells in general. Most of the time they work great and they reduce the damage to the point where it doesn't even break Stoneskin, and sometimes it just completely ignores the Bar-spell, cuts through the full Stoneskin and nails me for full damage (which in the case of primes' Astral Flow, it's for more HP than I possess).

Wow, you've done a lot more than I have, lol. I think I've done about ten on my own, half of which I had others leeching though, only not participating.

Totally right about the bar-spells, waaaay too random. Luckally though, I do run into the AFs that don't even break SS, but there are always those BAAAAM Neejee's dead, ones... -.-;

Oh, and I've been told its pretty easy if you go as BLM/rdm. You just have to pretend your a RDM. BLM defense can be boost a good amount. The only bad thing is that we don't have Pro/Shell up to date, and our enhancing cap totally blows.

I, on the other hand just buff to full, and chain nuke. I usually require a Hi-Potion or two, and always use Yagudo Drinks, but thats really all it takes. I use Tav. Tacos for food. Its a bit more risky than the RDM way, but I usually come out fine. I've lost about 5/15 total runs, not including two or three trial runs when I first started doing it. The only catch is, I can't solo Leviathan or Garuda without A LOT of meds. They heal themselves waaay too much.
