Odyssey Segment Farming
I wasn't disagreeing. I also liked delve more. I only said the color schemes made the event a bit more interesting than it would have been had they used something more bland. I never said it made odyssey better than the original.
I wish they would have at least not used WOE for it but instead maybe I dunno re used... temenos and Apollyon
They probably used the WoE maps because they are so obnoxiously annoying in size, and they were going for the overly time-consuming thing here. They made all of Odyssey a grind-filled time sink that you cannot spam and get over with in a week's worth. Huge maps. Long MM grinds. Low segment returns. 30min/day. RP and Atonement tier grinds. Everything about the event is about making it take as long as possible. The fact that the lag is so bad just fits in perfectly with the whole theme of Odyssey
I think it would be a good idea to have a list somewhere of what mobs are weak to what. I don't have a ton of time (in class in zoom atm just on a break) but crabs and lamia seem to be weak to pierce. Not sure what jagils are weak to, doesn't seem either slash or pierce, maybe blunt? I know leaden wrecks them. Mamool are slashing I believe.

I know leaden wrecks them. Mamool are slashing I believe. I was in the process of making a thread two days ago with this same concept, but I scrapped the idea. I agree it would be helpful. I guess I should have posted this over here. I did so in the main odyssey thread, then it hit a new page right after without so much as a comment or like. lol.

Also, the usual google translate disclaimer, I can't read JP. lol. It's a listing of each mob type's dmg resistance. Seems like rather than having a weakness, each mob just resists one dmg type. Quote: Slash resist: Aquans / Undead / Lamia Blunt resist: Lizard / Bird / Dragon / Troll Pierce resist: Beasts / Arcana / Demon / Mamoolja Magic resist: Vermins / Plantoids / Amorphs And some info on a few of the Sheol C NMs. Quote: NMs Chaos steward: Pierce resist Asena(Cerb): Pierce resist Lotanu(Wyrm) Blunt resist We knew about the NM resistances, but the list of family/resistances is very helpful.

I have been working on a list (as I'm sure others have too) What I have so far: Doom fails on : tiger, big bird, bats, undead, hecteyes, ghosts, leech, Ameratat, chigoe, scorpion, clots, weapons, dahak Doom works on : Wasp, Marid, Wamoura, vulture, leopard, treant, akpaulla, goobbue, raptor, ziz, jagil, sampling, beetle, bugard, wyvern, colibri, rabits Shiva.Larrymc said: » Doom fails on : tiger, Is this list from Sheol C? I have a video from B where I landed it on Tigers in Sheol B. Not sure what would prevent monsters from being immune to it in C. Do you know if it could be an issue with macc? What message are you getting? Resists? Or it lands but nothing happens? Shiva.Larrymc said: » Fenrir.Kaldaek said: » Good morning all!

PLease specify which zone, as they do not match in terms of doomable families. The list I have built was from Sheol C only.

Yes. We farm Shoal B for acouple reasons. Hides > wings. More mobs doom than C. Also based solely off this forum. We are getting more gil (but less segments) Our runs are like 4-4.5K segments.

Is there a list someone has compiled for B-mobs that doom? The only monsters that I physically observed are immune/resistant to doom are ones that are aligned to the magic/dark or Undead (Flans, Tauri, Evil Weapons (these might doom in B though), bats)
What are the people yelling "Must have warp 6" talking about?
