It was a nice little fight. Disposable Heroes had a full alliance. There were four BLMs, two RDM/DRKs, 2 NINs, a PLD, and the rest were filled in with melee jobs that I didn’t care about. There was at least a SMN, MNK, DRG, BRD, and 2 WHMs present. Now that I think about it, it doesn’t appear we had that much melee power, but then again, there are four more slots available so who knows what filled it. Probably more DRGs. DH is a DRG enriched ls. Maybe they want to do Desert Swarm one day.
So over the next 1/2 hr, we slowly killed Proto-Omega. The stunners had a stun rotation. The BLMs would nuke Tier II spells while PO was on all four legs. The melee would rush in and fight while PO was on two legs. When Gunpods spawned, our PLD/NIN would aggro it and run around until BLMs nuked it with Tier IV spells. It was quite nice and easy until it got to its final form. Then people started to die.
At 25% health, Proto-Omega stands on two feet and starts to beat the crap out of people. I died four times during the next 10 minutes or so. People were dying left and right. There were weakend people and double weakend (I’m not sure what double weakend people are though, I just heard it over party chat). It was very chaotic. The best people killer move was Laser Shower. It got really close. Towards the end, people were just 2hring and beating the shit out of Proto-Omega… and then dying. We beat it with 1 minute to spare. And people were shouting, “get to the box!!!” I stayed dead because I was out of mp and I already 2hred around the last 7-8 minutes mark. Unfortunately the only pieces that dropped were the head pieces. Oh well.
