NM Guide

From: linkager Guest Posted: 2006-08-14 16:03:19	Reply Quote
Just wondering if someone could help me to fully understand the NM guide in terms of which mobs are soloable at what levels. The guide gives the level of the mob, but what is a reasonable level gap advantage to solo each? 5,10, 15? more? Or is that independant based on the mob's abilities or special attacks, healing abilities etc?

Being able to solo mobs depends on a variety of things. If you're talking about Tom-Tit-Tat which is level 10 it's probably doable with a well equiped, fed, TPed and nearly full HP/MP rdm/smn (/smn for self chain and MB of distortion). A monk with 2 hour up could probably do him as well at level 10 with h2h already capped.

If you're talking about Ga'Bhu Unvanquished you're gonna need to be above his level to solo with everything but (and probably including) a rdm or maybe ninja.

Sewer Syrup is soloable by a 74 rdm/nin which is only 10 levels above it's level. Aquarius is soloable by thieves (and probably others) at 75 which is only 4 levels above. Sea horror has been soloed by a 67 Dragoon but probably couldn't be done by a ninja, maybe not rdm at that level (6 above NM).

Rdm/nin at 75 can solo Serket which is a level 70 mob (heard claim of drk/nin doing it too). Even the 5-1 main NM can be soloed in even match by rdm don't know sub (yes they spent 500k on items and this was years ago but it was done). I would imagine a well equipped monk with some meds could do this one too with their 2 hour.

There are too many variables to account for when asking at which level something is soloable at.
