Before reading on, I'm going to ask a few things from you.
1- Pretend that this is a real screenshot.
2- Pretend this monster exists.
3- No flames or harrasing.
4- Don't hate me.
Okay, that said..
We were in [Junganga Jungle] with a party of 6. Here is the party makeup.
Moaku 75 SAM/RNG
Shippo 75WHM/BLM
Verace 75 DRK/WAR
Tails 75 PLD/WAR
EricFox 75 RDM/WHM
Fever 75PLD/WAR
Now here we are hunting Flaremoogles, a mixture of Flareons and Moogles, for pets (Quest: A Flaremoogle for a Love) and drops. The mobs in Junganga Jungle con IT++ to every pt member too. Crimson Eevees aggro sound and have True Sight, so we had to be very careful. Near the waterfall is where the Flaremoogles pop (for this area anyway).
After much aggro from the Crimson Eevees and defeating them (We wiped twice from these, they link from far away so be careful), we ran into these.
Flaremoogles are weird. They actually walk up to you and stomp you for 0dmg, but they they don't really aggro. But they can be a problem if you're healing when you get stomped from these (You'll stand up). Furthermore, they do the stomping erratically.
Now here is where we actually chose to fight one. As usual, PLD tanked. But these things are hell for a PLD. This one hits our PLD for 300-500dmg a shot and is a MNK mob. He doesn't hit well, so he missed a lot.
But at 50%, we were all screwed. Turns out these things have a hyper mode like the HNMs do, and we started to get PWNED. The monster accuracy increased like crazy, attack speed was boosted, and its evasion just was insane. Not only that, he started to do three attacks, use MNK 2hr, AOE Silence/Slow, spam a frontal AOE fire attack that hits for 800-900 damage, frontal AOE curse, Regen and Cure, H2H WS Asuran Fists, and the dreadful Pom Pom Crush that hits our PLD for 4713 damage. We wiped.
We tried this thing five times so far with 6 people and we got one down to 4% before we wiped. Sixth time we came with an alliance and this thing uses Call For Help. Eleven of those things come, coordinated attacks like an XP party and the alliance wiped. Don't bring an Alliance.
-------------------------
Now, pretend that you encountered this thing. What strategies did you use? How was your encounter? What job were you?
And if you like the picture I drew, that works too. Have fun! [/bored]
