Hakutaku Ideas

[Dyunei]

Ive been thinking about how i can do this, after the eye clusters has been burning a hole i my pocket for 3+ weeks. At first I thought the only way to do this was with a full alliance of skilled 75s. I went on a run with another LS, it was badly organised and whatnot so i ended up not getting my O hat, but I learned one thing thats very important. Hakutaku is not as dangerous as made out to be; in fact, he a big blubbering wuss!

So i figured id try and find out how this could be accomplished with a much smaller attack force than a full alliance as that is EXTREMELY difficult to organise. I thought first could a RDM solo it? no, Paman was much too much of a wuss to be a hero like Avesta but seriously though, it cant be expected for any human rdm to solo this. So i though of asking BSTs as ive heard they can solo it. I ask around, and they all say no, BST cannot solo it. So I ask if they have friends they can duo or trio with. They all give negative responses and shoo me away.

From my experiences I -know- that this doesnt take a big alliance, and it can be done by less, and so i stumbled across this thread:

ffxi.allakhazam.com/db/jobs.html?fjob=12;mid=115558750681472696;num=49;page=1

basically about a guy trying to get it done with his XP static. All the replies seem positive and helpful, and echo that it is not only possible but easy with a decent party of 70+ members.

The important things you need are:
a) a good tank. I can do this, nuff said.
b) WHMs for paralyna. Obviously /whms would suffice.
c) Stunners; extremely important. Firaga II or III will cream you. It is said that one stunner is enough, but more can never hurt.
d) buff/debuff; not so important, but a brd with mambo would greatly help with tanking. Elegy and finale are always great assets. One dispeller is recommended.

It would be a long fight, but i feel i could do this with at least a single party. If we manage to get my hat, then we could help out in future with thown and vili and anyone else who needs it!

So i call upon you, high level LS members, to join the fight against hakutaku, and show your skills as a great FFXI player!

I'll help if I'm needed. One question is can paman /drk. If so we could do a run for 2 or 3 hats. Thown will be needed for stun so we kinda get him his hat. I think we would find if we setup a time and date for it more ppl would come too from other LS.

well you gotta give me a few days to lvl DRK to 37 first... its at 22 atm /cry

[Vilicant]

well obviously ill come along i would like to have O-hat! and a few days paman? who r u falling?

[Dyunei]

yes, pam, you have a few days, get levelling! on a lighter note i have whm and rdm 22 if you need a healer to party with at some point.

As i say, from the skeleton structure i explained, which would basically amount to a single party, you can add anything else, but as long as we have that core party that can do it, it would be great!
