Anyone have a story about doing this lo-man? During add phase, Did one person kite Kirin? two?

[Kussese]

I'd think there would be two kiters + one mage during the add phase. You'd need some kick ass DDs to take out the minis with those numbers, though.

A good PLD and RDM can kite Kirin alone. Even if you throw a WHM in with the kite team to be safe, that still leaves 9 to take summons. I'd say SAM x2, NIN x2, BLM x2, RDM, BRD, and RNG for the summon team would be my ideal setup imo, for both efficiency and safety. SAMs would SATA each NIN and both BLMs MB to ensure quick kills. RDM obviously /DRK to Chainspell Stun Suzaku, and RNG to Shadowbind Seiryu. The extra NIN would be handy to kite or hold a summon if a summon popped before you were done with the previous one. Once you're done with those I think you'd have plenty to kill Kirin, might just take a little while.

I say you need a dps war ret pally a resto shammy and a lot of spriests and it could be done goodluck

Kiter Party:
WHM/RDM
RDM/NIN
PLD/NIN

Add/Kirin DD pt:
NIN/DRK
NIN/DRK
RDM/DRK
RNG/SAM
SAM/THF
SMN/WHM
BLM/WHM
BLM/WHM
BRD/WHM

That should work.
Every single member would need awesome gear and playing skills tho.

like Uyo said it depends on the skill/gear of the players. for a first time kirin i wouldnt recomend it. if the kiter had crimson legs and knows how to distance kirin to get him stuck on the pillers and knows when/how to move so if he stops to cast he doesnt cut across the room when he finishes then the pld could probably solo kite him. if they throw a mage with the pld to keep them up thats fine to

the other 10 would have to kill a summons fast enough that they dont have more then 2 on them at most.

I've done it with 13 before. We had a RDM + PLD kiting Kirin while everyone else dealt with the adds (both had w. legs). One pop set we lost because a Suzaku + Byakko back to back were just too much for the add party to handle. Basically the set up Uyo recommended would work. Douchebags who break Shadowbinds, etc are not recommended for this set up, and Light / Dark SCs with AM2 is recommended. If you have an extra person, and Genbu gets in the way somehow, use one of the kiters to take Genbu away for awhile - he's also a good source of TP once you start working on Kirin himself.
