The Savage

Promathia-Mission 4-2

Walkthrough
As of the 6/21/2010 patch, there is no longer a level restriction in Riverne - Site B01. The entire mission can be soloed/duoed by most jobs at level 75+. Please be aware that there are now high level enemies (VT-IT to lv 75+) in these areas so caution not to cause aggro is still advised. Note: Although mistmelts are not required for this in uncapped fight, it makes it much faster. Without them he can stay up in the air for 3-5 minutes at a time dropping to earth for only a moment or too dragging this out needlessly. Optionally bring magic/range weapons that can hit from a distance.


 * Head to Riverne - Site #B01 for a cut scene.
 * You'll need a single Giant Scale to pass through an Unstable Displacement to get to Monarch Linn.
 * If you are trying to head to Riverne - Site A01 Before getting the cut scene, You have to get the cutscene and warp to Riverne - Site B01 first.
 * Proceed to Monarch Linn.
 * Going back and to the #A01 Side of Monarch Linn doesn't work.
 * Enter the BCNM and fight Ouryu.
 * The time limit for this fight is 30 minutes.
 * Note: Normal buffs wear off when entering the BCNM - food will stay.
 * After defeating Ouryu, your title will become Mist Melter (only if you are on this mission).
 * You'll return at the exit for Monarch Linn and can either come back to the entrance of Monarch Linn or exit out.
 * Head back to Tavnazian Safehold and talk to Justinius(J-6) again for a cutscene.

Ouryu

 * Ouryu is an earth-based dragon and casts earth-based spells. Naturally is immune to earth based effects and spells.
 * His TP attacks:
 * On the ground:
 * Absolute Terror: Terrorizes the target for a few seconds, making them unable to do anything.
 * Geotic Breath: Cone Attack Earth damage. ~700 damage if tank is directly in front of the dragon.
 * Horrid Roar: Dispels up to 15 buffs on a single target, including food. Resets enmity.
 * Spike Flail: Only used if someone behind him has hate. Huge AoE physical damage. Absorbed by Utsusemi.
 * Typhoon Wing: Frontal AoE ~100-180 dmg and Blind.
 * In the air:
 * Bai Wing: AoE Earth damage (~385 unresisted) and Slow
 * Ochre Blast: AoE Earth 400+ damage.
 * Ouryu has very high evasion when in the air.
 * Touchdown: Not based on TP, used when he lands (though not if a Mistmelt was used to ground him). AoE magic damage (element unknown, ~140 each).
 * His spells:
 * Slowga
 * Stoneskin
 * Stonega II


 * He gives up at about 30% health. You need to inflict approximately 6000 damage to force him to give up.
 * He will use Invincible at about 75% - 95%HP.
 * He alternates between flying and standing every two minutes.
 * On the ground, his attacks are physical; in the air, they are earth elemental and ignore Utsusemi, Invincible and any form of physical damage reduction, including Sentinel. His air attacks do 280 damage minus Shell and any resistance; kiting may also reduce their damage.
 * He will regenerate to full health if your party wipes.
 * Bring Ouryu to the ground with Mistmelt, which is obtained from the quest Fly High. You can also buy them at the Auction House in section Materials/Goldsmithing.
 * Being earth-based, Ouryu has an extremely high resistance to Stun in all its forms. Leg Sweep, Head Butt and the Stun spell all appear to have no effect.
