Talk:Lusca

Easily done BLU/WAR + RDM/WHM + BLM/RDM. I had 960 defense with -42% pdt and VV + MM atmas. Normal attacks were about 60, mantle did about 150-200, dual strike did about 200, siphon did about 200. He attacks pretty quick, but slow sticks so it wasn't a problem. I would highly recommend BLU for this fight as they can deal both magic + physical damage. I found the best way to fight him was to melee him when he's absorbing physical damage and simply spam sanguine blade. Sanguine blade did about 800-900 every time, he doesn't resist it at all. My normal melee hits only healed him for about 0-67(crit) so the damage from sanguine blade heavily outweighed the damage absorbed. Also a good way to keep hate from the mages. When he's absorbing magic damage, obviously don't use sanguine blade and spam your physical spells instead. I found sanguine blade alone as enough to keep me healed most of the time. I NEVER used a single cure from the RDM (I was dual boxing) and just used magic fruit on myself to keep hate. I think it would be quite possible to solo on BLU. Just equip a slow and paralyze spell.
