Qultada likes to weaponskill as soon as he gets 1k TP. Could it be that he used Detonator which lead to a three-step skillchain? Victory Smite has Fragmentation as second property. Could the objective require you to kill Ixion with multiple people skillchaining?

Could be applying some specific type of debuff like plague from shijin

Went in last night on DRG (so not MNK) using the same trusts dalkiel81 did. I started off originally focusing on crits using Shining One and Drakesbane, but remembered crits were tested so figured SC or something similar may have something to do with it. I swapped to Trish and did a 4 step Darkness solo, and a 4 step light off of Qultada's Savage Blade that he somehow landed (Went Stardiver -> Savage -> Drakes -> Camlann's). Was planning at the time to just multistep darkness him dead, but switched at this point to lights the rest of the way till Ixion was dead (started about 60% HP remaining). Qultada died shortly after this so all remaining SC were solo 4 steps. Did not see chest.

I doubt this will be helpful but who knows, figured I'd mention it.
I have gotten the chest from Ixion once, it was when basements were new, I went in as monk for unlock, and fought him from the front with trusts, didn't kill any pixies or anything else in that section.

My trusts would have been Monberaux, Koru-Moru, Joachim, Qultada, and Ulmia.

I would have just been Victory Smiting him with Impetus on, I also think (if I am remembering right} that I fought him in the hallway just before the first Nakuaal room.

In before it turns out this dude used formless strikes and the chest drops from non-elemental damage. Someone go and requiescat it to death

Things that I've tried.

Mnk (no Qultada out) Vere VS spam w/ Impetus in a crit build.
(edit: Not sure how quick this was from entrance, but I ran straight to him in first Nakuul room and he melted)

CDC Spam with BLU and crit rate set(Crit WS attempt)

Sequence stepping Vorpal Blade > Red Lotus Blade back and forth for multi step / Skillchain Damage.

Kill from front, kill from back, kill from side.

Watched a JP video where they were turning around during Scintillant Lance, but the video did not show the kill and I wasn't sure what they were talking about. Next time I go in for a solo run, I plan on turning during his WS

Just try killing it slower. A solo with trusts probably took 2 minutes and you all zerg the *** out of it in 15 seconds.

If it is take two minutes after aggro you would literally never figure it out, and for as long as it's been, that's what it is.

Theres multiple "kill it fast" objectives, why not.

Try fuming at it.

I've done some pretty slow fights on him as well, trying for the skillchain damage as he is very resistant.

Has anyone tested killing with specific type of dmg based on the time it is engaged?

Like in Abyssea when you could Blue proc with specific type of WS (Blunt, Slashing, Piercing) based on the time the NM was engaged.

Maybe the MNK guy was lucky enough to claim it during Blunt window. An most of use use either combined types of DD damage when fighting it or those that have tried the Crit builds have not been lucky enough to do it during the Piercing/Blunt windows.

Just saying...

Looking at the ixion in reisanjima breaking the horn is sometimes a challenge I bet it's similar. Mnk just has it easier

Tried some proc attempts last night. Here is what I ruled out.

Engaged and do all damage from the front with no Skillchains. I only used Leaden Salute and melee hits. Nothing.

Engage and do all damage from the side with no Skillchains. I used only Leaden Salute and melee hits from the COR. Nothing.

Engage and kill with as much Light Damage as I could muster: Savage Blade - Upheaval - Upheaval. Nothing.

Kill after killing Naakuls. Nothing.

Re-materialize and re-kill. Nothing

The other day i thought funny, that sector E and G are in the opposite side.

So, supposing E is killing from behind, and maybe G is killing from the front, it would be funny if the procs from Ixion was killing in its left side, and tillitia in its right side.

Tried MNK only. No chest.

Smite and SS 3 steps.

I want to try with Bio on since he’s weak to dark.

I suppose you could count that as part of my attempts yesterday as I was re-materializing and re-killed.

Try some enfeebles on it too, when Sorti first came out and everyone was running it melee style we had a Rdm and somehow had the chest pop once and never seen it again since. Try enfeebles and killing all the fairies.

Anyone on here tried anything with elementals and Ixion? For example, kill one of each element type and then kill him?

Also forget about any very job specific condition. It's not gonna be that. Objectives are designed to be fulfilled with at least limited various party compositions. It can be nukes, but not BLU only nukes for example.

While i largely agree, I wouldnt entirely rule out pet related damage if nothing else happens to work

Well like I have said, limited variety. Pet is still at least 3 jobs, so it can be that.

My sortie static also considered that it may involve a pet. The problem is no one really wants to bring a BST or SMN afaik. However, someone really dedicated could try.

Also, has anyone tried just straight-up white damage and no weapon skills?

First of all we need to establish few things.

Do we believe a guy who got it on MNK with trusts?

Yes or no?

If yes, then stop creating crazy theories that couldn't happened in that fight

If we don't believe, at least try to read whole thread and don't ask questions answered before and don't try to do things that have been done before, or we will get complete chaos here.

SimonSes said: »
ok I think its not that. I tried physical ranged and magical ranged. it could still be physical ranged WS. i think I have done more with white shots, than ws on that try.

I already did it (before we knew MNK got it with trusts).

So cute, everyone trying all these esoteric things when it's just bugged. Like this isn't the first time SE released something bugged and just didn't bother fixing it.

Simonses makes a good point about trying things out without knowing what was attempted already. So I made a table. Please feel free to tell me if the conditions you tried are worded correctly. FYI for some reason the rows aren't separated by horizontal lines even though I have them in the original. If information such as "killed with WS" or "killed with nukes" isn't mentioned, then assume it's still an unknown.



Note
*Trusts used were Monberaux, Koru, Joachim, Quiltada, faced front
**Earthsday; Trusts used were Joachim, Koru, and Ulmia.
***Used the same conditions as condition 10 (i.e., blunt damage from MNK; faced front.
****MNK and BLU used crit setup/build

I will continue to update the table as people try new things. Any suggestions on the format or how to make the table useable by anyone in forums would be appreciated!
