90% of the time, I proc a mob before it readies a tp move. And 99% of the time I kill a mob before it comes out of proc-stun (1% I have to re-up missing buffs when I proc at full health).

So dark spore is rarely an issue for me, and most of the time it's easily fixed by a cure4 from my bard. I'm a mithra as well (with hp merits) and I know I'm somewhere around 1.5k health. I always cure4 myself when I get to yellow which is somewhere around 1.1k health. For you, I guess you're sitting around 1.3k health. Thus throwing a cure4 at 1.1k health would be a pretty big waste.

I think you should change your merits. MP merits aren't very useful anymore anyway except for one ring.

If you don't proc on your first 3 JA's, then what I usually do is WS, then refresh Haste Samba and/or Saber Dance, and sometimes presto. This kinda slows down my TP feed while waiting on JA's to come back, and it also keeps me from having to worry about those buffs coming off.

Dark Spore is the bane of my existence when going solo. I either outright die or get killed waiting for server lag from canceling SD to heal myself.

It's among the DC monsters and checks "Impossible to Gauge." It will only be up in one place (out of the four DC monster groups) at any given time.

You can see red lines drawn to each of the DC monster groups on the map linked above.

The mobs are always group din families and each family has a TE type. so the TE #5 is always the same as what the other TE is called with in the family group.

If it is near the HQ Orcs then it will be called Warchief Tombstone : If it is near the Yagudos it will be the Avatar Idol : If it is near the Quadav it Will be Adamantking Image : If it is near the goblins it will be the Goblin Statue.

Proc stands for procedure, not process. It's an old term from the MUD days.

I think you misunderstand: that TE #5 can be the same as number 1-4, just in a different location on the HQ area of map. which is why they show 4 possible locations for it.

So, I didnt want to make a new thread or anything since its just a single question. So I thought I'd add it here since its about CW (and well..you use CW while farming currency! -.-...)

Anywho, Askelpian Ring. Does that apply to casting on yourself? Or is it only for when others cast cure or CW on you? Sorry if thats already been covered somewhere >.<
