Stun all the TP moves and pets shouldn't have an issue surviving.

Thunderstorm requires less gear and easier buffs while still MBing Zerde for 99k.

For those who went with the Flaming Crush route, how long do your pets survive in melee range? We tried this last night without Threnody/Frazzle and noticed that the avatars were pretty much dead around the 15 second mark. Was wondering if this was normal without the second magic evasion debuff and if stunning all the TP moves was required. Buffs were Frailty/Malaise/Languor + Beast/Puppet roll and stewpot with Rayke/Gambit, Dia2 and Impact.


Have someone stun the first TP move (we had one of our smn change to sch/blm), wait until geo bubbles (Malaise/Frailty) and threnody are down. RUN uses Odyllic subterfuge, their heavy threat generating moves and rayke. It will die in seconds to flaming crush spam.

For added survivability, have one of the SMN use perfect defense right before the pop.

If you see zerde page onbg you will notice most of its moves are conal so you can alleviate the problem by attacking the mob from behind.

Also most of the time pets are killed are mostly due to tank not holding hate. So you just need to instruct him to use its jas to make sure the nm wont target the pet.

Also with run tanking you time your odyllic subterfuge at the moment pets get close to reduce the dmg done.

Finally against zerde the real challenge is the stunning part. Make sure your scholar has stun bellow 9s and iddeally at 4s so he can stun everything. Stunning all plus frailty malaise languor bolstered plus rayke with ignis and it will drop like a rock. With 8 persons it has 1.5m HP.

Also would like to note here we revisited Zerde to help a friend. You dont need a blackmage or Scholar to stun the initial Just Deserts. Ramuh does it just fine (And in fact the stun lasted a very long time.)
