Hello, first off thank you for your time reading this

Secondly,

Would anyone be intrested in mabye forming a Promyvion Static

My current Jobs Are PLD 62, WAR 34, NIN 13

I can go as anyone of these jobs and have 3 Animas, 2 Poison Potions, 2 Antidotes, a Hi-Potion and a Hi-Ether (these items i will only use in Promyvion)

I have Already Completed Promyvion Mea but willing to do it agian if the static needed it.

After completeing the Promyvion Missions we could Static the ENMs and make Good Exp

If anyone is intrested Plz post, and i will do my best to contact you wether on the D-Board or in-game. It is my understanding that summoners and Rangers are a nessecity for success at Promyvion missions But other Jobs are welcome to post.

Thank you agian for your time
 
Yes, I am interested. I've got Mea done as well, but need Holla and Dem still.

Can come as BST, PLD, WHM, BLM. Willing to lvl up other jobs to accomodate if necessary.

Let me know here or in-game.
 
SMN's are not NEEDED for Prom, in fact, I never used one.
The set up I used for all three proms is as follows
2xRNG/NIN
2xWAR/NIN(Can go with 1 and bring a 3rd ranger if possible)
2xWHM/whatever

Its good to have at least 2 whms, just in case one goes down, there's no re-raise in prom.

Hope this helps you and good luck finding member for your static.
 
There are scrolls of instant reraise and reraisers you can buy though.
 
I really need to get these done. I can go as whm, brd, or blm. I have done promy holla only. Feel free to contact me in game Claud.
 
Proms are a lot more fun when the vast majority of your pt isn't rng and/or smn. :?

But then again, I don't want to farm 2, 3 hours for animas beforehand.

I've already done CoP 1 and 2 on Cubs and now I'm leveling RNG JUST so I can get them done on Jadey as well. Because I've already seen the 'wow' cutscenes and crap and now I just wanna get the fights out of the way.
 
Also, I think it's kind of deceptive that you have all these capped areas for mission 3 (40) but a balanced PT of 40s is probably not going to be able to kill either the Attowha or the Carpenter's Landing uncapped area NMs to continue to the level capped stuff - but I could be wrong.
 
I haven't researched the rank 3 stuff since I've been sitting on 2-3 for ages, but it's very possible to do the proms with a regular xp party, especially if you have anima. I mean, I can really understand why people go with smn, smn, rng, rng, rng, tank or whatever cause these things can be a royal pain in the butt, but it's still fun to try them out with a real pt. Sometimes people are just in too big of a hurry to rush through these things that are supposed to be hard though. And then after zooming through CoP missions with a cannon pt they'll complain about how the game has no content. *shrugs*

Edit: Shouldn't this be on the Event Scheduling board?
 
Have you seen the CoP 8 (I think it's 8) stuff? From the walkthroughs I've seen, the term 'three-hour walk up' is mentioned. I don't think anyone's 'zooming' through this stuff, especially when the expansion's been out about 9 months now and I'd venture that less than 20% of the server has Lufaise Meadows access, let alone Riverne #A01/B01/Sacrarium/Sea access. I'd put Sea at a solid 1-2%, if that.

EDIT: Found it (from a guide for 8-2:)

"More Info On The Final NM In “A Fate Decided”. (It takes about 3 hours of walking to get to this battle)"
 
I'm interested in doing some Promyvions. I don't know much about em except the have a lvl cap and they drop awesome loot sometimes.

If it's a 30 lvl cap (like I have been told) I can go as a Whm, Rdm, Brd, or Blm. I have a full spell book for all those jobs up to lvl 34. I have no equipment for any of them but I wouldn't mind going to buy some.

I am off efery Friday and Saturday, but I sleep at odd times, so there isn't really a set time I'm on. I'd be willing to wake up for this tho.

let me know If I am needed.

+1 with Rappa on this one.

I laugh to tears each time I see some shouting all over Jeuno to make a pickup Promy run :lol:
I'm sure some of you had an incredibly funny successful run that way but I've done some and as the Raven said "nevermore".

Cubs, it's "strange" to see you put so much effort onto money making yet none in farming during 1h30 for animas.
 
Hey claud I would like to do these missions also for anyone for that matter. I am left with holla at the moment but I am willing to do others also. To me holla is most difficult not only the Nm but getting to the spire because the zone is swarming with mobs and the terrain sucks. Dem and Mea were much easier to get to spire and to defeat NM, even though I tanked and died in both it was still easy.
 
I've always wanted to help others complete these missions. I myself am already done with the Chains of Promathia story (as it currently is till July) but I've brung 6 of my own and another 6 to Al'Taieu and would be glad to help people progress (as far as the leader would prefer) but I'd be open to go the entire way if you were interested.

You can also contact Cyronae on these missions if you would need help. Currently we have 1 group on chapter 5 fork (Moblin, Snoll Tzar, Mithras) and another on Promyvion Vahzl. Anyways, please look into this if your interested and contact me in-game on Gilga and I'll see what I can do.
 
I was there with you Claud.

My character is currently wearing lvl 30 WAR equipment.

I need gil to buy stuff. I don't need animas to beat the crags. When I was in Svina's Promythion nobody had them and we only had 1 wipe - and we went back without 2hrs and won. Animas are there for the less-optimal setups or for those that don't actually want to spend money on meds and food for the fight.
 
I need to get them all. So if anything you can try me, I have one Anima, can't remember which one it was.

If you ever start to help another group get these done I would love to be in it. COP is the only story I'm really interested in at this point. I seen some screenshots and I can't wait to do them. ZM 1-16(?) and Bastok 6+ can wait for me.
 
I'd be interested if I could trade my damn recollections already ><
 
It takes less time to farm up animas for six people than it takes to farm up gil for enough medicine for one person to be safe to fight the boss without animas. The drop rate is not at all bad (hint: kill Weepers in one Promyvion for one recollection, move on to another Promyvion for a different recollection, and move on to the third for the last one). And regarding how useful they are for that drop rate, let's put it this way:

Six people using anima? Boss is not doing *anything* for 3 entire minutes. One anima prevents physical attacks and another one prevents specials. And if you haven't killed it by the time those 3 minutes are up (which is unlikely for any balanced PT setup, even without the use of 2-hours), you can then actually start fighting for real, with your entire party at full HP and MP while the boss is hopefully almost dead.

But of course, if you'd rather lower your odds of success by actually having to deal with its attacks for the entire battle, make it harder to organize by restricting yourself to only certain jobs (most players of which have already been dragged off and gotten the Promyvions done *because* they're the RNG, SMN, WAR/NIN, and WHM, and probably won't need it and thus won't be interested in repeating it), possibly delay your second/third runs by having to wait for 2-hours to recharge, *and* take more time farming gil for medicine than you'd spend farming animas ...

By all means, skip anima-farming. I know nothing about CoP. ~.^

P.S. to Jague: enter any old Promyvion, and then stroll back out, and *don't* go and erase your memory. Then you can trade your recollections. And once you beat a Promyvion you're good regardless of memory-erasing in the other two.
