I can also confirm the attack damage type is dark (I absorbed it as HP on monk with shadow sachet)

Lilith HTBF
The mewing lullaby strategy with monk and supporting party seems like the way to go (from Mrgrim video a few posts up), but it's also nice to be able to solo on your own time on E when you have etra merits to waste, this is from my first few attempts I used MNK/RUN and sacrificed damage to improve survival, got an earring and daybreak from about 11 runs so far

you can probably manage mnk + thf on E for more TH
Heads up for those doing it with jobs that rely on SB along a smn, Fenrir's ecliptic growl negates Lilith's impact if applied prior to the fight. Very convenient move if you don't wanna be annoyed by impact.

Has anyone received a double drop yet?
You will take your 0-1 drops of the 9 possible drops and like it.
On a related note, we're currently at 5 poles, 5 swords, 2 earrings, 1 club, 1 boots, 1 body. I cry a little every time we see a pole or sword now.

Exenterator > Rudra's > Mandalic > Exenterator is a decent Light SC. She takes normal damage from Light, so whatever damage you would lose in WSD you gain it back in SCD, assuming you don't get knocked out of range and miss or have a trust interrupt you. Fight goes fast if you use this
I'd still guess that Evis spam (and huge crit rate under 1000tp) with Tauret beats SCs that need Exenterator. And much simpler. But either way, like you said, fight should go fast.
Since Distortion will make poor damage anyway on first form I would change this skillchain to much simpler Exentrator > SA Mandalic > Exentrator and I would do it with Aeneas MH starting from 2000TP Exentrator for Light > Radiance. This would easily beat Evis spam, but I still think that the bolded up words in quotation might be more important. It's kinda hard to make solo SC especially 3-4 step on NM that can put up dread spikes and knocks you back.

I’ve been dual boxing MNK and THF in easy.
I go MNK/war and in a normal TP set and just Zerg. Faster kills = less TP moves = easy fight.
Dark thorns is the only FU in easy.

THF + WHM dualbox is great on E as well for those without up to date MNK sets. :)
6/24 on drops so far: earring → earring → sword → body → pole → pole (end), not sure how many times a third earring might've tried to drop though. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Edit for clarification: this was done without anchor or account automation.
We were getting like 1/4 drop rate ish on E with a real thf while waiting for ppl to log on

Have people seen armor on VD? Only have seen ears and weapons so far.
Anyone have any issues where 2nd form stops taking damage?
Had best results with Super Saiyan Monk and Manaburn setups.
Neither require burning SPs to do properly, which speeds things along nicely... provided there's not a 40 minute wait between entries.

Only happens when too many fetters appear for me

Ayy kids this is my VD mnk style vid, figured out mewing works on this so it went very smooth. No SPs used at all. Also fight starts almost at the end lol.Now do it without Anchor lol
I think people using Anchor really underestimate how potent cheat it is and how much easier this fight is with it. I tried to solo E on THF TPing on Gyves. My DPS was probably maybe 30% of what it would be without being constantly pushed everywhere. I really want to know if at least one person who suggested it's easy and fast on E is actually doing this without Anchor.
I know one person who can triobox this without Anchor on VD and that person is my personal MVP.

I know people who do it on E without anchor (or any addons for that matter).
and for what it's worth, the people I know who use anchor still got knocked back during our runs, so most of the crying about it seems to be for nothing.

I get knocked all over the damn place if I am not using knockback gear, I was being flung everywhere the other day in a shout group I was in.
As for the guy that tri-boxes VD, I know exactly who you are talking about, he was damn near soloing it the first night it came out. I was pretty much there for show.

Oh I know its possible. Im just wondering if people who for example suggest 3-4 step self skillchains while doing it solo are playing with Anchor or not. Personally I cant imagine doing 3-4 step self skillchain reliably on it solo, but maybe I was really unlucky with that try. 3 of my trusts died in first 10 sec and I had no dispel available after that and even with 4/5 Malignance + Turms +1 feet and 2x Lux from /run, dread spikes were doing full damage.

Well no wonder you know, we are in same LS after all :D He is imo the most competent, creative and mechanically talented ffxi player I know and even with that respect to him he surprise me all the time.

Already killed w/o anchor lol.
I've never had second thoughts about what Adoulin ring I chose until now, but Vocaine Ring is almost tempting me. Having to give up Ambu cape for Repulse Mantle is painful.

Guess I wasnt being clear enough. SOLO means solo. With trusts or without them. Not 6 boxing.
I have seen few people suggesting self skillchains for E solo EDIT: and on jobs like THF, not on jobs like SAM, when self skillchaining is so much easier.
