*Won with 85 BLU/NIN, 85 DRK/NIN 85 WHM/SCH. Very easy fight, DRK could have subbed SAM for faster kills since shadows didn't mean much with ele's casting agas. DRK and WHM handled the elementals while I tanked the main NM on BLU. Would be best to set dispel or have dispel around due to the ele's casting haste and buffs on NM. AOE's weren't very threatening.

  • Won with thf blu dnc mnk rdm sam
  • Won on Bismark with thf, dnc, rdm, & whm with 18 mins and 52 secs.
  • 6/27/10 update: Win as PLD/NIN, SAM/NIN, MNK/NIN, BLU/NIN, WHM/SCH, RDM/WHM. Levels ranging from 75-78. Party had lost first attempt, but after understanding the fight and coming back with slight job changes and better preparation (/NIN subs, understanding the flow of the fight) won without too much difficulty. RDM's sole job was to kite elementals around the "track" while party fought Tzee close to the entrance from the hall where you enter the battlefield. Elementals cast gravity very often, but did not pose much trouble (could likely be kited without much difficulty by any job with decent kiting ability, particularly with movement speed gear). PLD tanked Tzee, DDs let PLD establish hate before going too crazy, PLD MNK SAM all 2hred when boss was down to about 40%, BLU was well geared for DD and contributed good damage (not just there for Head Butt spam). Very smooth run, no death. Boss AoE is not to be taken lightly, Utsusemi helped a lot for the frontline.
  • Done with rdm/whm rdm/sch brd/whm sch/rdm pld/nin sam/nin. rdm/whm goes in after buffs and sight agros everything. Pld or sam grabs Tzee and takes her down to ramps towards the enterence. Rdm/whm takes elementals to highest point of zone and keeps hate on elementals using Diaga or Banishga, otherwise they will return to Tzee. pld tanks Tzee while sam deals majority of dmg. Recommend instead of this to have sam only come in to ws as to feed less tp. She spams her AoE move so make sure to curebomb whoever needs it during this time.
  • The "vorticose sands absorbed by utsusemi" is utter BS. removing. Set up: pld sch rdm whm bst smn. Kite method; SCH sight aggro'd and PLD immediately flashes Tzee Xicu. SCH having fully buffed is ready with manifestation to bindga the elementals. Continually kited elementals around the above stated "track" for success. Even with echo drops ready, a PLD can drop immediatly after vorticose sands if not prepared for the move. Keep communication open with kiter to know when NM is close to death.

  • Won with RDM/WHMx2 SMN/WHM WAR/SAM SAM/NIN MNK/NIN. One of the RDMs got initial aggro, and diaga'd elementals to kite them while rest of pt grabbed NM. SMN used Alex 2hr Perfect Defense asap, and all 3 DDs zerged. RDM lost hate on elementals fast, but with PD up, didnt notice any damage being taken from either them or the NM. NM died before PD even wore off, and as WAR/SAM, I never even got to use my icarus wing, it was dead that quick. Our curing RDM casted Dia2 and slow/para and thats it, no one even needed a cure. -Ahleah (Alexander Server) July 19, 2010
  • Won the fight with PLD/WAR, SAM/THF, RNG/NIN, BRD/WHM, RDM/BLM and WHM/SCH. We decided to have the melees kill the Elementals first. The best area for this is the platform in the center with the NM/tank on one bridge, melees/elementals on the other and mages on the platform. With Baraera and Wind Carol on, the Elementals' spells were never doing more than 200 damage, and they went down relatively quickly. On Tzee Xicu, I noticed several things:
    • Baraera/Wind Carol seemed to have no effect on Vorticose Sands, it always landed (roughly) 600-800 damage. Perhaps it's Earth damage instead, or simply non-elemental?
    • In addition to removing all gear and silencing, Vorticose Sands also seemed to reset enmity. I'm not sure whether this only goes for players actually hit by it or for everyone, but Tzee Xicu went after several different party members after using this move.
    • Astral Flow can be used several times but will not have any effect without the Elementals.
    • Dark Invocation was also used several times. The first few times it appeared to do nothing, but at the end of the fight it effortlessly one-shotted both melees. Is it chance or does something else (enmity, NM's HP, ...) play a role?
    • Tzee Xicu's weight aura has some inconsistencies. At the start of the fight I (WHM) definitely noticed it when reapplying Baraera, but later on I was able to kite her without extra movement speed, despite sometimes getting close enough for a melee hit. The weight never came back on while the rest of the party recovered, not sure why.
Although her special moves are strong, Tzee Xicu's melee hits pose no threat and as stated before, her defense isn't noteworthy either. I think this can easily be won by a party of 75s. In case things get tricky, the arena is ideal for kiting while recovering. --.Eithin//TC 16:27, July 20, 2010 (UTC)

Trio'd with *coughAmanocough*SAM, WHM, and BRD with ease! SAM aggroed everything initially and killed off both Elementals before slaying Tzee Xicu. Didn't have any troubles throughout the fight. --Kyarutaru 7/21/2010

  • Did this fight with Lv. 80 PLD, RDM, SCH, and 78 DRK. Killed off the elementals first then Tzee Xicu. Very easy fight, though, she never used her Vorticose Sand move. -- ƾƴƦƠƧ 15:03, August 4, 2010 (UTC)
  • Won easily with pld/nin(homan, joyeuse, atonement), whm/sch, war/nin, drg/whm. All lvl 80.
    • Very highly recommended to kill 2 elementals first. Whm, War, and Drg killed elementals easily. With baraera, their spells didn't do much damage. They also didn't hit very hard. In fact, one elemental was on whm while War and Drg were killing one.
    • Pld held the boss somewhere else. Pld was able to hold him solo without needing cures from whm. With haste from whm, Ni timer was down to 28 sec. Haste gear set up recommeded.
    • After killing elementals, we killed the boss without much trouble. However, DDs shouldn't pull hate from pld as they can still die quickly if boss is on them. Zmn 8/8/2010
