Me and my old man(Rdm Maat)

[K. Ishitar]

I'm only 66 but I got a test recently and decided to try him out, to see exactly how he works, I only took a few hipots and a hi ether(lol yeah), used regular cookies so I wasnt intending on beating him. just see how resistant he was

Current stats

Enhancing-230

Enfeebling-250 (Spider and Tabard included)

Elemental-212 (af hat included, saving up for druids)

Maat didnt seem all that bad...

I've watched a few vids and read a few strats

I ran in and popped sleep II

miraculously(sp?) I slept him

dispelled buffs

rested then use highest tier(stone III in this case)

sleep him and debuffed(none stuck non-suprisingly) and rested

casted Stone III then reslept (he wasnt resisting my nukes well either it was watersday at the time so it was a 'neutral' fight

I slept him 4/5 times I survived six mins in there. my mistake?

resting near him...1k hp or slightly less dont remember gone

Other than that it was a pretty predictable fight he didnt seem hard or seem to have anything special regardless of popping asuran fists with little tp.

I think I'm going to try and solo him at 66 once i cap my skills

Any tips or suggestions? I'm fairly confident I can take him down once i get appropriate meds and food and an intention on winning, and my gear is decent enough to take him down if i can sleep him fairly often

Not sure why people attempt Maat at 66.

for the epeen record more or less, with rdm it's even more epeen.


It's been done before, but I'd figure it'd be more of a fight

Seriously Khid, do him at 70, you get more magic skill, and most importantly, Aero 3. Nobody is going to laugh at your already small epeen for doing him at 70.

My attempt with the old man as a paladin.. he was at about 1/4 hp, I was getting very excited but I'd already used Invincible so I wasn't expecting a miracle and then the totally unexpected happens..

He uses Asuran fists not once but twice in a row, followed by a shield bash stunning me/preventing from curing or using hi pots followed by A THIRD ASURAN FISTS. Seriously, how the hell does he do that three times in a row?

Edit* could it just have been a one time fluke, 1in 100 chance? Or does he spam Asuran fists like that often? I was 68 pld at the time I fought him

As a RDM, long as you can sleep him, you can beat him. The more times you have to sleep him though, the more chances he gets to resist and go to town on your ass, which is the usual cause of your death.

Fighting at a lower level means:
Lower Enfeebling Skill = more sleep resists
Lower Elemental Skill = more nuke resists = more sleeps required
Lower tier nukes = more sleeps required.
in addition to less defence, less HP, less MP etc.

It can be done though, just need a little more luck than usual, and for RDM Maat you need a little luck to start with.

it took me 3 tries to beat him on rdm. i tried that exp page trick @ 69 but being the idiot i was back then i wasnt close enough to 70 to be fully restored. i said fuck it lvled to 70. soloed ruby for practice and then i was able to beat him.

 

[Mariox]

"soloed ruby for practice "

Not like that anything close to "practice" to maat as people make you beleave.

Blink, run in dispell (if blink, cast slow) then sleep 2, dispel till no effect or you get shell. Get to max distance stoneskin, nuke then sleep, get to max distance, nuke... repeat. Don't waist time resting, or using hi-ethers, if anything use vile-elixers. The longer you take, the more likly your going to fail.

If all goes well, you can win with just using MP, convert, then using MP, but bring vile elixer in case. restoneskin/blink as needed.

Alot of it is luck in landing sleep.

 

[ds083roadkill]

i have to agree with mariox, make it qiuck and painless.

i only used 3 hipots for convert as far a meds go, went 1/1.


also, dont waste much time once you enter the bc, cuz as your buffing yourself, he is doing the same.

Back then? Lawl ( j/k ; ; )

Ok khi i'm 75rdm so i will tell you stuff that i have done to win.


First off, go as 70 seen you get Aero III then, cap all magic enfebbling, etc

A tip i learned but did not use was go as level 69 about 50-100 tnl and mid fight you can u a exp scroll from a garrison so you gain level 70 aero III and mp and hp will full increase and recover.

go on darksday and use a darkstaff for sleeps it helps out so much. Bring tons of INT and MND gear.


Most people go in and buff up then sleep then dispel him all of the way then buff up


Bring a vile exiler or vile exiler +1 if you don't ise them it's always good to have it and need it then to not have it and need it. Worst thing that could happen would be that you have to wait to get your money back when you sell the item back to the AH.



If you need help getting another test let me know me uber melee gear will solo those Rubys


Good Luck man

As elvaan you need to calculate the amount of MP that you need to kill it with nukes. Maat rdm has 2,400 HP. GL.

Just a minor issue. Aero III is 69.

OMFG wow i'm sorry for that, it's been so long


Anyways Aero III is nice pro in this fight, but it can be done with Stone III and Water III and etc


thanks for catching that Altheya

I havent had internet access for awhile wanted to ask

what meds and what quantity of each should i take for this? and food?

i can pump my stats up pretty decent I was using a +25int with the tabard and spider torque but I can put it up to about 32+ if need be

well i would bring some


Hi-Potions/5-10 quantity
Vile elixer +1 or vile elixer 1-2 you always can sell them back if not used
I used a melon pie+1 or i think royal jelly or something like that it gave me a lot of +int
I used this for the fight that gave me the win hermes potion thing gave me time to convert cure IV cure III stoneskin and blink then vile elixer then casted sleep then bind with ice staff then chainspell aero III then he gave up


go at 70 the mp and hp increase in always a nice

Khid

I can lend you some decent gear if you like.
HQ staffs
torques
etc

I'd hand em at Maat and take em back at Maat, as I use em most days doing something.

 

[K. Ishitar]

thanks for the offer Z, but i'm not really touching rdm for awhile but when I do I'll keep that in mind^^

i'm lving subs for now and here and there smn blu or bst

 

[Solan]

when i was fighting him on my drg @ 68 if i remember right, i went in killed his wyvern then he did a asuran fist+critx2 and i was dead then i went in again a week later at 75 and owned his ass he used combo

 

[Kotsu]

Khidir, go on darksday for elemental enhancement to sleep? Other than that, you'll have to cut out the lolSBC and tear him a new asshole at a higher level
