Soulflayer Ambuscade V1

Would have been too easy if you didn't need the mob to use the ability. Asurans would be merc'ing ballista for spells.

Due to the Vana'Bout, this once Annoying at best ambu will be quite popular... I expect people to be running it with unique party comps to get the most objectives done per run for best time investment. Curious what people think given the leaked RoE's.

I expect them to just wafflestomp v2 for efficiency tbh

Unless it turns out you can reliably kill V1N/D and check every box in one run etc

Clear/fast/ws/sc/burst/t1spam all much easier on a flan than a dbagspamming blu + imps

That's a shame, here I was thinking people wouldn't compromise on hallmarks to net their plaudits, but I suppose it's totally fair. Hallmarks are only good for so much

most people wouldnt care much to miss out on hallmarks. almost everyone has their gear/capes made. theres also the campaign bonus and extension depending on how well you and your server perform too.


id personally take more time to enjoy a benefit over how much hallmarks i can make

The way I read the web page, it seemed as if our performance collectively hits a threshold, NEXT Month's campaigns (January) will be extended by 3/6 days. Did I misunderstand and it actually meant December's campaigns? I think it'd be smarter on SE's part to have players fight to extend the current campaign in a given month, as its incentive to play, rather than fight for something unknown and potentially less appealing.

It's the following month.

Do a ton of ambuscade this month, to pump ambuscade campaign next month

Then while that campaign is going, do a ton of whatever event they pick, to pump feb's campaign

No see, this is clever, now they can pick and choose campaigns to suit how Vana'bout goes.

I, for one, am eagerly looking forward to those six days of extended Abyssea, Dynamis Granules of Time, Ambuscade Gallantry, Bonus Bayld, Campaign Festa, Geas Fete, and Abjuration Dial campaigns.

Been quite a while since we've seen this one. Usual video covering solo and party battle strategies and showing a Normal Solo win. Have a good month all!

The problem with this is the campaigns aren't announced until the previous campaign is ending/over. You'd be doing VanaBout for a little over three weeks before finding out what campaigns would be extended.


Instead of extending the campaigns for 3 days and 6 days, the first bonus should extend the campaigns for the entirety of the month (update to update). The second bonus should upgrade all eligible campaigns to PLUS. I think people would be morivated to get 12 dark matter a day instead of just 6 or get the extra void/shard and currency drops in Statue Crusher Plus.

I just appreciate something new. They didn't have to do this, but they added something a little extra.

Like sprinkles on a turd.

Rdm sub blm can sleepga all the mobs can do like sleepga > elemental seal sleepga 2 or use Spontaneity to cast sleepga 2 twice in a row. Seems like only 1 immuno is needed for it to land. Also silence soulflayer when u goto kill him. So setup would be like monk bard cor geo rdm whm and just let monk kill the stuff each adds dies in like 2-3 ws. With them all slept the incoming dmg is very minimal.

Elemental seal Is not needed to land sleeps can just keep casting till sleepga 2 or sleep 2 is on everything.

If low ml can sleepga till they all land and start sleep II stuff after so they stay slept.

People get hallamrks for gear/capes? not for all the Curency they either stockpile or sell?

3 years later

So green.

FWIW, I'm throwing my video into the N solo clear hat. (PUP/RUN solo w/ trusts)
