The Buried God/Strategies

Strategy One

Set-up: PLD/WAR*, NIN/WAR, Melee DD, Melee DD, Support, Support, Support, Support, WHM, WHM, your choice of ranged DDs
 * Earth staff, kiting gear, and Phalanx II help a lot.

Strategy: Buff up, and have the PLD/WAR kite all 5 mobs without actually getting hate on them. The NIN then chooses a target, and all DDs should focus on that one. Recommended order is BLM > BLM > WHM > WHM > WAR. Continue to kite until all 4 adds are defeated. Afterward, the PLD should accumulate hate, while everyone lets loose on the boss. if someone grabs hate, they should kite until the PLD can get hate back. Usually the only TP attack that will actually land will be the AoE. As SOON as the message comes up that he's going to use this, make sure the WHMs are ready to use Stona. The move DOES reset hate, so be prepared to kite until the PLD can get hate.
