Trust Ciphers!

How about Selh'teus? His attacks seem to be similar to Mildaurion's, so I assume they're ranged also, but I haven't done any testing.

The fight in windy walls is located at the bottom of the circle path/north of the AH (where we used to camp out back in Dyna-Windy?). I did the fights in Northern sandy, by the exit to West Ron (where Excenmille's at).

In Bastok Markets, the moogle is located next to the daily tally Goblin (near the southern moghouse entrance).

The actual Mumor performance is next to the fountain.

I'm currently using for solo
Quiltada
Ulmia
Joachim
Sylvie (UC)

With these I get

Indi-Fury
Indi-Fraility
Chaos Roll
Fighter's Roll
March x2
Madrigal
Minuet
Haste

I'm kinda stuck on who to use as the last trust.

I switched to Sylvie for the melee buffs, jokes on me because I'm a mage, she only does indi-refresh/acumen '-'

So what do u do while watching the fight? Iv heard ppl talk about going head to head with a number of ppl to get equip pieces.

I did it solo, make /cheer motion /clap motion /wave motion macros, spam the jesus out of them at Mumor, she should do a dance every 8% or so. She'll stop attacking and you'll know a dance is coming. Target Uka for the dances. Uka will give up around 8% and join Mumor to do the final 4 dances against Ullegore, make sure you target him for your dances. Buying fireworks the dude from after the show makes her dance more often.

A couple more things on Mumor II. All of her TP moves are definitely magic based. She has access to Firesday Night Fever:


This gives her some sort of super boost like August's Daybreak. Even gives her a pink glowing aura and access to...

I tried out Selh'teus against Fenrir, and sure enough, he will stay out of melee range and just use those ranged moves.

Does anyone know about August's No Quarter damage calculation? I mean, yeah, no 10k needles for trust, but still...

I find myself using:
Obviously a healer if needed (Karaha imo).
Kupofried for CP.
Amchuchu for magic tanking.
Excenmille [S] for pure DPS output, he does a 15% attack buff with 3min/5min uptime.
Occasionally Adehleid for stunning.
I tend to use Arciela over Joachim also.

Trust BRDs have March+0, no instrument modifiers like players. So, that means you're not capping magical haste unless you have Haste II AND both trust marches. Haste I and 2x Trust March isn't enough, and Haste II with 1 Trust March isn't enough.

Capped magical haste: 448/1024. Trust magical haste values:
- Haste 2: 307/1024
- Haste 1: 150/1024
- Victory March (+0): 96/1024
- Advancing March (+0): 64/1024

So your biggest bang for the buck of any buffer is a Haste II trust. I love Koru, since he'll also do a ton of other useful enhancing/enfeebling magic: Distract II, Phalanx II, Dispel, Slow II, Dia III, Flurry II (he'll use that on Qultada), etc. Oh, AND he'll toss single target cures. Koru's non-haste utility is strong enough that even if I'm on something like BLU where I can Haste II myself, I still like bringing Koru for all the other stuff.

Koru and Ulmia are staples for me, but I do sometimes use both BRDs. Ulmia won't always use 2x March if she has something else to cast, so sometimes I need Joachim too. Plus, Joachim helps out with -na and cures. And even if marches are covered, I don't mind getting stuff like extra Madrigals or whatever.

My standard setup when I'm solo on a melee job:
- Apururu
- Koru-Moru
- Ulmia
- Qultada (usually) for the buffs, exp/CP, plus a little DD

Then add whatever I may need from:
- Joachim for more support
- Amchuchu if I want a tank (though August seems good too, only trust I currently lack...)
- Brygid for Def/MDef aura when I'm soloing certain high tiers
- Kupofried for maximum CP farming
- Random DD: Ayame for a good SC partner, Perih for ranged decent damage, or just someone for laughs because I feel like seeing them

Quick look on Ullegore (Login Campaign)

- BLM, again use's nukes strong to the Mob
- Crazy High MP, 4999mp (Albeit with the Alter ego campaign boost)
- No Native Refresh
- Use's Tp move called "Bored to Tears", cant actually see any effect except you get a system msg saying the "The Mob has grown noticeable bored"
- His summon message will notice Murmor and Uka but not Murmor II and vic-versa

Would anyone like to take the reins and volunteer to keep this updated?

What, keep people updated on the newest trust and their abilities?

I could do so, if needed. I don't have two of the Sinister trusts, but I keep track of the new ones rather assiduously.

I meant the first post. As a guide or something, usually the first post carries all the updated information. Since the first post is extremely outdated and Demonjustin isn't around much to keep it updated, I figure someone else can take over. I have an idea where we can keep this thread but someone else can alter the first post easily.

On another note, I have seen August in action.

He has used:

Every Alluvion weapon ever.
Sentinel
Reprisal
Flash
Provoke
Cure IV
No Quarter (Only when gold wings are active, and it doesn't deal much.)
Daybreak

Possibly a few more things; his enmity gain seems crazy high, possibly due to the AoE nature of some of his TP moves. So far, looking like a solid PLD/WAR trust, which I personally think we were sorely lacking.

august have a crazy high enmity cap, in wkr I spam ws none stop and can hardly take hate feom him.

What combo's is everyone currently using?

I tend to go for.

Healer - Karaha-Baruha or Mihli Aliapoh(for some one with more HP, coffin does not cast shell/pro)

DD- Zeid 2, Semih Lafihna, Noillurie, Prishe (Back up healers for those 2) Selhteus.

Tank - Gessho

Support - Arciela

Other - EXP moogle.


Been trying to solo some hard mode battles recently on Very easy.(6 main avatars, shadow lord and Tenzen seem to be easiest) Some times i take a mage type like the new Ullegore trust.

Managed to take down Fenrir for the first time and used Coffin since he does not waste all his MP recasting pro/shell every time they are dispelled.

Anyone have any tips on who else to bring to those fights?

Are Balamor attacks dark elemental or neutral? Cause I need to fight a Gravitaion Elemental and am not sure he'll work out c_c

edit: it appears he's darkness afterall, moreover I discovered he cannot be healed

Without August, Amchuchu is the best.

I love this setup for solo melee CPing on BLU; Joachim + Ulmia + Apururu + Qultada + Kupofried.

Unfortunately though, I recently moved to Bahamut and noticed that they favor Sylvie over Apururu by a large margin... I don't want to lose my super healer, but neither do I want to lose my first place bonus on unity gear T_T

I can live with Karaha, but Apururu is just... too strong. Not only for fodder bashing, but for soloing things like UNMs and high-tier BCs on lower difficulties too. Nott, Convert, Curaga, Devotion, Regain... Any other healer is simply no match.

Welcome to Bahamut.

That said, I think that's mainly because Sylvie's new, and once that levels out people will miss having the best WHM trust that exists in their solo parties.

My favorite solo trust teams vary, but when I'm on Ninja for HTBF or non-CPing, I use:

Apururu- Healing
Arciela- Support. Her inability to Haste/Refresh allies doesn't bother me, she can group heal if necessary, and Dynastic Gravitas does occasionally land. Also, with her not refreshing Apururu, she won't glitch out and not, well, Nott.
Joachim- He'll -na, he has more HP than Ulmia, and apparently, pebbles can kill.
ShikareeZ- Solid DD, for the most part. She self-buffs, and will skillchain with Shun rather reliably. Super Jump is yummy.
For the latter, I'm not sure. Perhaps Tenzen II, as he's ranged and won't get flattened by melee attacks. I haven't done much since having the ability to call five.

For CP, it's usually Apururu, Koru-Moru, Qultada, and Kupofried, with me pulling for a PC Blue Mage.

I definitely think August is hands down the best Tank trust on the market, but I actually don't have Amchuchu atm (I hope they bring her back tho!). If you can get August, do not pass the opportunity up, hes pretty awesome and keeps hate pretty well considering :).

Balamor is undead, technically, so no, you can't heal him.

Gessho is a reliable blink tank that I've used against the Gessho HT fight. Amchuchu is indeed good, and very reliable for things that Rune Fencers are capable of, but due to subjob restrictions on trust there are things that Gessho is better for.

Once I get August, I'll test more with him, bug from seeing him in action I believe him to be a very good Paladin trust.

Balamors attacks are dark.

While SE blocked white magic cures from targetting him for whatever reason, he can still be healed normally with regens, blue magic, and various trust TP moves.

What is so funny about not having good enough mab gear? You can brag about your cp rate for all I care. I am just doing what I can do better and am happy with it.

Back on topic; is Sylvie able to cast any -na?

She -nas and yes, she still has regain+Nott.

How good does your gear even need to be for decent damage? i stick to melee since magic damage does chuff all.

For AoEing, your gear only needs to be good enough to 1 shot the Acuex with BA up or two shot them with BA down. It's also ideal if you can kill the bats/leeches in 3 AoEs. You also need a decent -PDT set (and FC set, but that's not really unique to cleaving).


I did Escha for a lot of mine since I got bored of AoEing and wanted Silt (and I couldn't find a camp that I liked that gave both good CP and would be viable for cleaving solo).
