Talk:Balamor's Ruse

Beaten by a party of BLU/RUN, BLU/DNC, WHM, Trust: Cherukiki, Trust: Moogle, Trust: Sakura.

BLU/RUN (ilevel 118) summoned Trust: Cherukiki, Trust: Moogle, Trust: Sakura and tanked/DDed the 2 Balamor's Sycophants with Lux x2, Swordplay, Vallation, and Pflug up whenever possible. Ambrosia and Amrita were also used. BLU/DNC started off assisting with the Sycophants but was very suddenly KO'd. The three trust NPCs were extremely valuable. Cherukiki was used so that TP would not be fed, and Moogle and Sakura were chosen in case the trusts were obliterated quickly. This didn't happen to Cherukiki, but others have had that issue.

BLU/DNC then moved to assist Arciela with the Regicidal Dullahan while weakened. WHM healed Arciela and both BLUs. The sycophants both died before Regicidal Dullahan. BLU/RUN went to assist with that Dullahan after sycophants were gone.

After that, only Balamor was left. Arciela waited for our party to engage. BLU/DNC, still weakened, attacked from afar with Glutinous Dart while BLU/RUN ran in, popped a Vile Elixir +1 for MP right as WHM offered Devotion (point is, devotion would've been enough if BLU had waited, and wasn't need before this point). BLU/RUN popped Chain Affinity + Efflux + Chant du Cygne + Amorphic Spikes for Darkness (Skillchain), then Azure Lore and Unbridled Learning + Paralyzing Triad + Quadratic Continuum for Darkness (Skillchain) + Bloodrake for double Darkness (Skillchain), then Chant du Cygne + Amorphic Spikes for another Darkness (Skillchain). Balamor surrendered shortly after.--Blue Donkey Kong (talk) 20:24, August 14, 2014 (UTC)
