Lol looked like you guys had it going pretty steady until... his Shoulder Attack? Never fought the nm, better luck next time guess. lol
Edit: and a level down too! ouch :x
Yeah, we were actually doing very well, in my opinion. The nail in the coffin, so to speak, was when he threw up Counterstance at like 50% HP. His counters ripped through the THF's shadows in the blink of an eye, so he started taking a pounding (his counters hit for like 250+ each...ouch!), so I'm dumping Curing Waltz III's on him like a madman, so of course I took hate, he blew through MY shadows, so then I'm trying to cure bomb MYSELF like a madman (which is why the camera was freaking out as I mashed my macros in desperation lol), and JUST AS THE THF was pulling it off of me with a SA-Dancing Edge he hit me that one last time and dropped me (in the video you'll see he actually DOES turn him around, but the NM got that phantom hit in after the fact like mobs always seem to be able to do at the wrong time lol). I had just gotten 62 earlier in the evening so I was like 500 in, and yeah...Level Down ftw! ^^
We're actually going to attempt to trio it with our 61 RNG friend in the next few days, and I'm betting we'll be able to drop him quicker with some extra DD goodness. Either that, or I'll have a new video to make featuring the Mario dying soundbite, maybe x3 for good measure lol. I'm hoping we beat it though, it's a requirement for the WotG missions, so we're currently stuck til we finish him off. Eh, we'll see what happens ^^
