Ok, now I plan on Dual Boxing Charby to get my Corsair a Joytoy, but need some advice on gear. Everyone seems to make him seem like a god of Accuracy so I wanna make sure I'm super prepared.

I'll list the gear I plan on fighting him in below:


Main Hand: Senji
Off Hand: Unji
Ammo: Bibiki Seashell
Head: Optical Hate
Neck: Evasion Torque
Ear1: Melody Earring+1
Ear2: Melody Earring+1
Body: SH+1
Hand: Seiryu's Kote
Ring1: Rajas
Ring2: Ecphoria
Back: Boxer's Mantle
Waist: Swift Belt
Legs: Byakko Haidate
Feet: Rasetsu sune-ate

Now my 2nd char is going to be 75RDM/37BRD, and will do Mambo so I can trigger the earrings as well as some evasion bonus. With capped evasion + merits and all that gear (With songs) I should have 306 Evasion Skill. Now I've heard skill after 300 tends to lack, so should I drop one of the Melody Earrings for a Bat Earring (+15 Evasion) I'm kinda broke right now since I spent all my gil to buy the Boxer's.

Any help would be recommended, thank you. ^^

I've been DBing,TBing and QBing for a long time and I can't see how you could keep shadows up while keeping all buffs/enfeebles up. But if you can do it more power to you.

I don't know that much about nin but it seems like you should macro in more haste for casts, and macro it all out for eva while your not casting. Might want an oshit-shadows-are-down macro also because I've seen nins go down in 1 attack around.

Well I'm not god in DBing I've taken Bune and some smaller things I will most likely use NIN on PC and RDM on my Xbox360 so I can have both screens up all time.

I didn't post my O-shit Macro or Haste but I prolly should...

Haste:
Head: Turban
Hand: Dusk Gloves
Feet: Fuma

O-shit:
Head: Arhats+1
Body: Arhats+1
Waist: Warwolf

I'd go with Mamushito +1s for weapons. The added stun helps. Also, you might go with March from /BRD. You'll need all the Haste you can get. If you can get a BRD main to come along and stick Elegy and give you March+Mambo it'll help a lot.

Charby doesn't have that great accuracy, but evasion is streaky. He'll miss you 10 times in a row and then hit you 8 times in a row and kill you.

[evilmonk3y]

Ok now the RDM/BRD I have coming is also a 75BRD should I have him come BRD/WHM then since I'm going to be NIN/DNC?

[evilpaul]

You can do either. Elegy really helps a lot, but so does having Cure IV in a pinch. I'd really try to drag a few friends along with you. Having somebody who can nuke it (while minding their hate) and speed up the fight is quite nice.

Some other things to keep in mind are have Barwatera up for the Maelstrom TP move. And be aware that after Charby's first hit in a round of attacks the later ones won't interrupt your spell casting (like MNK mobs in general).

It's definitely doable with your setup, but you may get unlucky.

Main Hand: Senji
Off Hand: Unji
Ammo: Bibiki Seashell
Head: Optical Hate
Neck: Evasion Torque
Ear1: Melody Earring+1
Ear2: Melody Earring+1
Body: SH+1
Hand: Seiryu's Kote
Ring1: Rajas
Ring2: Ecphoria
Back: Boxer's Mantle
Waist: Swift Belt
Legs: Byakko Haidate
Feet: Rasetsu sune-ate

My opinion is go all-out evasion or don't go at all:

Main Hand: Mamoshito +1 (the stun can be helpful)
Off Hand: Mamoshito +1 (the stun can be helpful)
Ammo: Fenrir's Stone / Ungur Boomerang
Head: Optical Hat
Neck: Evasion Torque
Ear1: Melody Earring+1
Ear2: Melody Earring+1
Body: SH+1
Hand: Seiryu's Kote
Ring1: Rajas (maybe Wivre Ring [+1])
Ring2: Ecphoria (maybe Wivre Ring [+1])
Back: Boxer's Mantle
Waist: Scouter's Rope
Legs: Koga Hakama or Ninja Hakama if you don't have.
Feet: Rasetsu sune-ate

After all, you can macro in all the haste you want for casts. On the other hand, you'll probably be fine either way. Good luck.

When I did this guy, duo it was nin/dnc + dnc/nin and it was a joke of a fight! My armor was. Fight took ~25min, neither me or the dnc ever dropped hp below yellow, blind, paralyze, slow tools are a mist though.

Main Hand: Senjuinrikio
Off Hand: Perdu Blade
Ammo: Ungur B.
Head: Optical Hat/ W.Turban
Neck: Evasion Torque
Ear1: Ethereal Earring
Ear2: Bushi/Novia
Body: SH
Hand: Seiryu's Kote/Dusk Gloves
Ring1: Rajas
Ring2: Ulthalam's Ring
Back: Corse Cape
Waist: Ninja relic/V.belt
Legs: Koga Hakama
Feet: Fuma sune-ate

Food: jack-o-lant, was only thing i had on me at that time!

mambo mambo mambo!

I'm not sure what kind of Acc you'd have on Charby with that little Acc gear and not using sushi...

I'm not sure what kind of Acc you'd have on Charby with that little Acc gear and not using sushi...

If that’s at me:
Well actually I was hitting 7-8/10, with the jack-o-l! Which boost to 8-9/10 with dnc using eva down on him! Was about the same when i did it with a brd/rdm long time ago! was getting eva x2, and some cure's. Killing time was ~5min longer, that’s about it. This guy does not have any big eva or acc in on him, so landing and evading hits is not really a problem. With the set up I used he hit 3-5/20 swings. But I did not mention I have eva+, katana, spell inter-% full merits, and parry/ninju caped so whole fight I lost hp on only 5-6 hits(note tp moves) and had 1 interrupt. Only thing that put me in red was maelstrom. You could solo this guy but I don’t recommend unless you have all your shit together and know what to do and how to do it. He’s in ungur’s class for solo (on nin) you can but it’s not a fight you want to go to the sec you hit 75 with no prior exp what so ever.

eyeballing zzzz

Mambo, and your abilities as nin/dnc should cover you for this fight. Watch out for cross attack, that can potentially 1shot you if it catches you between shadows.

The "everyone" you have talked to is wrong? He is highly inaccurate but has fast attack rates, At any rate a monk in DD gear can tank him as long as it has mambo (I have) so I think don't stress gear, stress on a bards mambo, just wear a SH and some other decent eva shit and you'll be ok.
