Is MEGA BOSS "Umagrhk" from Meebles Saum area solo'ble? Duo?

Like say Solo'ble on THF/dnc?

Or MNK/dnc + THF/dnc?

Or do I need to get a healer?
Ive done it on BST and PUP solo i went 3/5 to get full drops failed twice. If you get hit with beastconstruction (i think its called that) more then likely a fail.

Can try getting the buffs to movement speed and auto reraise. With an extra feet, prob should be able to kite the ape even weakened or encumbered. Actually maybe you can even ran out of range of beastruction (with buffs, gear you should be almost at flee speed).

No, SE deliberately did not give newbs any way to get there for a first time, any sooner than 2007 style vanadiel had.

beside the point you can however lvl them to 20 nearby their home city and wait for ease of exploration power. save you ~3 hours by unlocking windurst bastok mhuara selbina and sandoria homepoint crystals that way.

What about paying 500k for an airship pass and send your mule direct from home city to jeuno?

Wouldn't work. You can only buy the Airship Pass from Derrick, an NPC in Lower Jeuno.

THF Question:

With the following equipped:

Sandung (TH+1)
Thief's Knife (TH+1)
Plunderer's Armlet's +1 (TH+3)
Chaac Belt (TH+1)
Raider's Poulaines +2 (TH+1)

That's TH+7 in gear, plus +4 from being Thief, ie: TH+11

When you activate TH on a mob, will it always start at 11? Or what is the starting cap on TH now? Please assume no kupofried effects or anything else. Just this gear + native traits. Thank

OK !

First, TH is only +3 if your main job is Thief.

There is now a CAP of TH8 with (gear + base TH), if your main is THF.
(TH4 is the gear cap for all other jobs)

There is a hard CAP of TH12 you can upgrade to with thf normal attacks / bounty shot.

Basicly, the new upgrade on plunderer's armlet's (TH3) allows you to reach gear cap without TH daggers.

you can also level up a little bit, using books. Then you can get Reraise and start your run. If you die, just wait till its clear and get to the closest book to get reraise again.

Thanks I didn't realize native was TH3.

This still confuses me since I have +4 in gear and never hit less than TH8.

the message that your TH upgraded is increasing your Th level

if you hit the mob once and don't get a message, it has TH7

the message is upgrading it to 8 and informing you of that

Funny how some of the simplest things escape you for years - My mules now can travel around the world because of this - it just never occurred to me. THANK YOU

Making a crappy bard, but want to make sure and hit the essentials. What songs will I be using, minuet/madrigal/prelude/ballad/carol/march - anything I'm missing? Basically, I want to get a +3 instrument if it's available.

For buffs, add in Sentinals and Mazurka.
For debuffs on the mob, get Elegy, Threnody, and Lullaby

Might need more, but that is what a few of my LS members get on their Bard mules
