Enter message:	[quote][i]Quote from: Ragnarok[/i] Ok... we tried to (unsuccessfully) kill the HNM Urganite Shen today. Here's the rundown: 1) Farm up and make a [url=http://ffxi.somepage.com/itemdb/7101]Shrimp Lantern[/url]. The Shrimp Lantern synth is somewhere around goldsmith 80 in cap, a 74+1 Goldsmith critical failed without support but was able to synth it with advanced support on darksday. 2) Go to Bibiki Bay, ride the boat over to Purgonorgo Isle 3) Find the ??? point at the southwest corner of J-9 on Purgnorgo Island 4) Trade the Shrimp Lantern to the ??? and prepare for a tough fight. The fight consists of: [b]Shen x1 [Urganite][/b] Shen, like most other HNMs added this patch, is immune to magic debuffs and Stun. When he goes in his shell, he will use an AoE poison attack called Venom Shell which, at 40 HP a tick, is very nasty. He also gets a very powerful regen every time he pops in his shell, which will fade next time he pops out of his shell. Another special attack he uses is Suctoral Tentacle, which will bind the target if it hits. He also casts magic: Water IV, Waterga III, Flood, Drown. Not as potent as Alastor Antlion, but because of his little buddies, just as deadly (see below). Like all other urganites, when he is in his shell he takes 1/5 the damage he would normally take, but only stays out of his shell for very short periods of time. [b]Shen's Filtrate x2 [Water Elemental][/b] Shen's Filtrate can not be debuffed, but they can be stunned. They also cast magic: Water IV, Waterga III, Flood, Drown. The catch? They follow and assist Shen, meaning they'll go after whoever gets Shen hate. The elementals also hit very hard, in the range of 120+, in addition to spamming magic almost nonstop. And if you kill them, he'll just respawn them. Strategy: Treat this guy like Vrtra. When it's in its shell, it's in the air. When it's out of its shell, it's on the ground. Keep it kited as best you can to prevent the elementals from wiping the party with Waterga III spam. Barwatera and Barpoisra are important, as it drastically cuts water magic damage and allows you to (rarely) resist his poison. Due to the strength of his poison, a couple of stacks of antidote per person is recommended. Not sure if poison/venom pots work to prevent his poison. Main reason we wiped is because we weren't able to lay on the damage fast enough with only 3 BLMs and a handfull of (nerfed) damage dealers, and people kept going down to constant poison status/AoE magic attacks. Otherwise, mages will be too preoccupied casting Poisona to really do much of anything else. Enmity down is also a big factor, as mages will easily pull hate with nukes and healing spells off of a kiter. Rumored drop is [url=http://ffxi.somepage.com/itemdb/7012]Assault Breastplate[/url][/quote]
