Yesterday first time partying with a idris geo in sinister and things just melts. Thought about mythic thief a slightly better then average blue Mage with cor geo white Mage run fencer but eh we went back to our bst bst setup cause we done it quick and efficient before. 6 to 10 minutes runs. The other bst wasn't 1200 Jp and missing a few augments otherwise one 4 minutes run would have been possible if we both unleash and familiar at the same time. now I know how it feels to party with a idris geo. I can't be unspoiled now.

The good thing about melee' based setups is you don't need to go "reset SPs" in-between runs. You can just grab the KI and rush back in. This event was designed to be spammed and spammed a lot, all the while slowly getting better gear from it. And a half decent GEO should make the Amnesia / Terror not be a problem with a decent tank making the dispel not a problem. Idris can do Geo-Vex + Indi-Frailty and just melt things.

Now the the minimum number of participants is 1 and trusts can be used, is any of these bosses realistically doable like that? If so which and with what jobs?

Not keeping my hopes too high, but checking just in case.

I'm sure BLU or BST can solo quite a few of the bosses with trusts, if not all. SMN is up there as well but might have an accuracy problem.

Did they really add some additional drop to SR? And what's the 1500 Bayld thing in the patch notes for, exactely?
It was confusing.
Is it just saying that if you complete a SR run you'll be able to pick a 1500 reward instead of the old 1000 bayld one?

I thought the patch notes said capacity points. To me it almost read like the additional reward WAS the addition of the capacity points.
Edit: It might even be something silly like materials.

I was under the impression that she was already in the pool, but I haven't done a lot of SR so I couldn't say for sure.wrong

The main problem is all three final bosses have a way of removing your trusts, whether through deathga (Arciela), aggro resets (Sajjaka), or just outright killing you (August). So ultimately it's going to have to be a true solo job, and probably one that can survive while weakened.

Arciela *can* do doomga, not quite the same as deathga.

Run from august near 1.5 minutes and you won't die, and Sajjaka just needs his scales broken/curaga.

I was referring to the shark summon, which will probably kill any trust that adjusts distance at the very least, and possibly more since they position themselves so poorly in general.

Timber leaves you equally *** anyway, though.

Does maintenance remove doom from a puppet? If so, is it 100% effective?

Didn't they say they wanted to add a Gun for CORs to Sinister Reign, some patches ago?
Yet it never happened, until today at least but I'd dare to say not today either...

Not that this makes it any better, but it might be 1500 base modified by all CP bonuses, like SKCNM fights.

Well. Considering the fact that we got none from it before, I'd say its fine. Every little bit helps.

I'm a bit let down. I was thinking that "reducing requirements" meant not needing SoA completed and "adding rewards" meant new gear. I was looking forward to this event getting a second wind and people spamming it, since I still need a few of those items.

Reposting since SR-relevant.

Dunno if this was already known, but Absolute Terror lands on all waves in Sinister Reign for "normal" duration if you got a GEO giving you Focus, making them terrored for 80-100% of their HP. Makes an already-laughable event even more of a walk in the park. Me and my fellow BLU were giggling like schoolgirls when we first found that out by mistake.

Edit: Rosulatia is the only NM that seems to resist.

SCH MBing maybe?

Tank + WHM trusts + whatever 3 other trusts would be most appropriate.

So no one has found any new drops? I'm starting to think they added stuff to the fourth "random item" slot.
