Well, more like a Galka RDM vs. Maat fight.

Would it be effective to use an Opo Opo necklace and sleep potion at the beggining, and get 200 - 300 tp, and open up the fight with a Spirits Within, and then continue with the fight the old fashioned way? I dont know what the tp gain rate is on the necklace, but it was just a thought, and I'm trying to pick out flaws.
 
Opoopo necklace + 12 sleeping pots = 300% TP
 
Prolly not the best of ideas... maat is usually buffed with blink and stoneskin at the beginning... and its best not to engage period

Theres a video for RDM fight with maat, and its a galka.. let me grab the link real quick..
 
Ah, thanks so much, guess I can rule that strategy out :(

Thanks for the link too, it helps alot, and proves that Galka can beat Maat as RDM.
 
I asked this a while ago when i was thinking about my future PLD fight (tp 300%). Well, it's not possible, especially on a RDM fight where it takes a while.

The reason: it simply takes far too long to sleep to 300% tp (200% not worth it for spirits really). By the time you sleep to 300% and then all the rest of the fight you'd reach your limit of 10mins. As don't forget you need to buff up and all that too.

A paladin even managed to run out of time just sleeping to 100% then fighting maat. :?
 
Ya, it is not really efficient to sleep 300% tp vs rdm maat. Even if time was not a factor, if you left RDM maat alone for the long, he would have every buff and then some on himself by the time the battle began, would would be oh so much fun to dispel off him.

It has RDM vs Maat fight, and plenty of other videos..

Wow, thanks for the link. My time to take on Maat is approaching too.
 
I once read an article from a retired RDM, i aggreed with most of his stratagies and beliefs, however he did not believe it was even possible for a Galka RDM to beat Maat.

I can't remember if it's in Allakazham, i watched a video of a Galka RDM beat Maat. It dosn't look easy.

He did not melee in the battle, It was more like sleep spells, Gravity, changing armor, changing staves, taking elixars, and the Galka was laced out on food and buffs.
 
Yeah, wasnt his name Airsprite or something like that? I could be wrong though. They replaced his RDM 101 guide with another, they're both pretty equally informative, I must say.

I know I have my work cut out for me when it comes to Maat, but if push comes to shove I can always level another job up, which I am totally cool with cause I can fund it with RDM. BST would probably be my first choice, because I can pretty much level when I want to, BRD looks kinda fun too.
