Gigas was last month you are about 30 days too late!

Yeah, I made it because I was out all last month and noticed no one bumped the old thread or created the new one. So, I'm adding it now so it's ready for next time.

Well..... This is the one that's supposed to get carried forward. Gigas specifically got all *** up.

Not a lot to say on it, it's stupid easy. Still haven't entirely nailed down 99k insta death. IIRC it's ether don't lose enmity or don't do damage during his skillchain. Something menial and pointless. A stun to break the skillchain is effective.

Strat is barfira/Carol use every buff in the game and just kill it in 35 seconds. Mega > Minions.

You can do it the slow way too with water nukes/death.

No, hes 725 days too early!

Guess so.

Had success 4-boxing V1VD WAR/PLD COR BRD WHM after a few failed attempts. Charm from trainer missed me in hybrid DT set (not full MDT) but otherwise I would do the BST last. 2mar2min, chaos/sam, barfira, Brygid and AAEV trusts. WHM stand at max casting range. Provoke-->Sentinel-->Retaliation on side wall to establish hate, flash once and kiss your MP and shield-wearing goodbye. I didn't try killing the main boss first but suppose that would be wise.

stymie sleepga 2 from rdm landed on them all and can immunobreak sleeps outside that. If maybe lowman this could help.

Got V1D down with RDM/NIN, GEO, WHM. Buffs were Indi-Barrier, Geo-Fraily (Bolstered), Entrust Indi-haste, Bafira and other regular things. Trusts were Valainearl, August and AAEV (all tanks survived at the end so probably didn't need that many).

Opening the fight by sleeping the boss with Stymie + Saboteur, then having Valainearl grab hate on all adds (watch the distance from the boss), moving to the corner (WHM stayed at max range), Bolster Geo-Fraily, Chainspell, then Savage Blade > CDC > Water V > Requiescat > Water V to zerg three adds down (Fistfighter → Fistfighter → Marshall), waking up the boss and kill it, then move to kill Swiftshooter.
