Ahaha. One of the main reasons I quit this time around (arguably for good) was that I was unable to get the last Genkai done on my own. Something that should've been more epic and awesome than fighting Maat became just another example of "Throw SMNs at it lulz." forced grouping crap content.

We didn't need a SMN for my final Genkai... only amazingsauce skillz were required. (WHM, PLD (no Ochain), THF, MNK, BLUx2).

My group only needed 1 SMN, me.

x5 MNK /w Hundred Fists
x1 SMN /w Hastega & Perfect Defense = Win

Throw more Black/Red Mages at the problem.

I had two attempts with PUGs that had SMNs+Alex and both were failed attempts. I forgot, I still have my Rarab Tail.

1 single SMN.... or multiple SMNs?

I was actually referring to the format of the fight.

Just looking at Yggy's setup and the things people told me about it while partying is enough for me to know it's exactly the kind of thing I hated in XI. But let's leave it at that, I'm not supposed to be posting on XI related threads for obvious reasons. <_<;

It honestly wasn't so bad Ray. I got through it on Red Mage without any Summoners (lots of ranged magic damage and stuns but whatever). Honestly if you were gonna run with a SMN Perfect Defense Zerg then RDM would be as good an option as any since the damage per hit is capped at...100 I think it was? Enspell up for extra damage and go in with the dual wield and it becomes less about huge numbers and more about how frequently you're striking the target. Monks Hundred Fisting is just the simplest route b/c their 2-hour caps their delay, but it should be doable with a group that just knows what's up.

The difficult part is, as always, finding people who don't wear their pants on their head.

It was only one SMN, if I recall correctly.

Wait, they just now decided to increase testimony drop rates and increase attempts to 3? Where was this 10 years ago when I had to keep farming testimony's while doing the Maat fight as a bard? D:
