Fenrir fight this saturday ^_^Follow

#1 Feb 21 2005 at 11:38 PM Rating: Decent
Heya^^

I was hoping to try for fenrir this Saturday. I am thinking we could do it with the following setup:

2 blink tanks--myself(72whm)--blm--brd and smn.

So far I have lost twice to the puppy. I would hate to leech him off of some fellow players...but if some smn's are doing it soon and have room please let me know m(*.*)m
Otherwise, lets get together this weekend and take him down.
If you can help please send me a /tell in game... Demitri
Thanks again for looking and see you in Vana'diel

We tried it last night and lost but got him down to a silver of life just about everytime.. So yes it can be done. Even though we lost like 4 times it was due to mostly trying to figure out the right moves to do and when.

Have 2 have 2 blink tanks 1WHM 1BLM 1BRD 1DD. By the way our WHM wasn't so good I was pissed it wasn't you cuz we would have won. You D/Ced and didn't come back, we needed you..

Anyway our setup was 74pld/37nin(me), 74war/37nin, 75blm, 74sam/37thf, 72whm, 68brd..

1st fight lost cuz we really didn't know how our setup would work and got cocky because the fight was going so easy until Fenrir was just about half dead and I died from 2 hits when my shadows were down. LOST

2nd fight went well we all ended up usin 2hr then war died pld died Fenrir at 3-5% health we lose again..

So now were pissed cuz we had his ***, figured we try again.

Now after 2 fights we pretty much know what to do and when and feel pretty good about winning even without our 2hr up, so once again we got cocky. Go in and SAM/THF wants to wait a second longer before he SATA's off of PLD, well it was to long WAR die's I(PLD) tank till I die Fenrir 10% health WE LOSE AGAIN.

Last fight - Now were pissed cuz everytime were so damn close.

Go in everything is going well, BLM nukes a bit to much me(PLD) and WAR lose hate BLM goes down Fenrir at 30% (were like oh **** now). I get parlayzed whm dosen't see it and the WAR goes down Fenrir at 15%. I tank till I go down.

WE LOSE AGAIN Fenrir at 8% again..

That last fight even with the blm out if I'm not para we WIN, to beat this thing whole party will have to be flawless.

Party Setup - 2 blink tanks for sure..
Tanks should be I think PLD/NIN for best defence as the main so when blink drops it wont hurt as much, and WAR/NIN for same reason and better attacks.
1 WHM
1 BLM
1 Brd
1 DD we had a sam/thf for SATA off of me PLD main tank, was a very good idea, SAM would start fight off with SATA @300.

Were going back tonight...Sorry for the long post..

the key to Fenrir is to juggle hate... all 3 melee should have /37nin ... with the ability to pull hate away from someone if his blinks go down.

although having /thf sounds like it'd be a good idea... having /nin for the 3rd melee would be better. Trick Attack locks the hate onto a tank a little too long (1min in between tricks to the next tank is a long time, a double attack + ecliptic bite will wipe away all blinks)

- juggle hate
- when fenrir 2hrs.. have PLD 2hr to hold hate while mages spam curaga
- dont waste melee's 2hrs unless fenrir's at very low health (if you're going to die.. might as well save it for next round)
- take advantage of Fenrir's weak days: new moon and/or Light day

Good luck^^ it's definitely a fun fight
