THF99/DNC49 easy[]
Another easy fight. Only used Haste Samba from DNC sub. I just went in blind outside of watching out for when he did phys invulnerability move. Took him down with the regular setup of: Valaineral, Zeid2, Shantotto2, Apururu(UC), and Selh'teus (life-saver one of the best trusts for AoE healing oh man). Again, I'm in welfare Bayld gear with 10-30k accessories from the AH (Asura). Only merits is 5/5 triple attack. Another ~2min fight. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6tdcQtPuLk

- Do not rely on Balamor's magical auto attacking, it still counts as physical damage for this fight and will not bypass the invincible effect.
- Accomplished on THF99/DNC49 with Item Level 117 (Records of Eminence Espial set, Espial Dagger, Homestead Dagger), using trusts: Trion, Zeid, Adelheid, Cherukiki, and Yoran-Oran(UC); I ate Sole Sushi. Metus appears to be immune to physical damage at times, so a second offensive caster would have worked better. Adelheid ran out of MP well before the fight was over, and one of the WHM trusts ran out of MP, too. Having a second healer saved me. I used an Icarus Wing while I wasn't doing any damage. When physical damage commenced, I SATAed Trion with Shark Bite to finish off Metus who was down to about 2% HP. Many trusts and I dipped into orange HP in the last quarter of the fight.
- Accomplished on IL119 THF/DNC with Arciella II, Apururu, Shantotto II, AAGK, and Trion. Ate sushi, but not needed. Fight was fairly easy. Before whm had us buffed I had it down to 50%. The TP block move it does stinks for /dnc, and virus... but still, fight took just as long to cast 5 trusts as to kill, and no danger of dying.
- Completed as DRK99/SAM49 with a 119 Cronus and Upgraded 119 Gourney gear +1 using Valaineral, Ferrous Coffin, Kupipi, Joachim, and Shantotto II. Self buff with Endark and proceed to attack. Kupipi and Ferrous Coffin will keep you alive. While he's immune to Physical Damage, Shantotto will hit him with elemental spells and your Endark, while doing minimal damage, will still help slightly. Bring Food, it will help greatly. Let Valaineral tank, he will use the Physical Damage Immune sections to rebuild any he's lost to you with Provoke, Flash, and everything else he can. Just focus on fighting.
