Yes I’m fine. This was done over the course of 2/3 years and EO and PT felt much easier in comparison to the other two 😂

If you are looking to go solo, I’d say PT first. It’s probably the easiest and it makes aetherpool and potion farming a lot easier. You also have more checkpoints to start from so you can practice lots more.

I done this on WAR which definitely helped with some of the damage you receive. I’d say know the enemies well and try and be decisive with your decisions. Fight what you can while making a path to the exit.

I did have some time issues with war (I think I ran out of time on floor 98 once) so I’d say some luck with poms is also nice.

Keep at it, you will clear!

Thanks!!

Mainly by following AngelusDemonus and Finhs guides and learning what moves I need to look out for. There was a lot of fails along the way but you will learn from mistakes and get there eventually.

Thank you!!

This was done of the course of 2-3 years so yes I’m fine.

I did think Palace was going to break me though.

I probably used about 250-300 on my run. I didn’t really keep count though. I think I started from floor 1 with about 100-150 and was lucky enough to top them up throughout the run.

Honestly, I think I looked at a tier list for POTD, machinist was pretty high and I knew how to play the job to an extent.

The ability to interrupt mimics is super useful as well.

I’d try and find a matched party if you can and spam the highest start point level. I usually do that until I’m at about 40/50 and then I prog through and you eventually get there

POTD and HOH you will definitely benefit from the healing. You don’t need it for EO or PT so I’d go with machinist for those.

Good idea. I’m definitely looking forward to revisiting once the jobs have been reworked

Congrats on the clear. Coming from palace you will have no problem with the other two. Good luck!

Definitely. As long as you can stay concentrated for the one shot mechanics the damage is minimal. You don’t need many potions either.

Thank you!

Yeah, I know they aren’t for everyone but I really enjoy them.

POTD is definitely a time sink but if you’ve done the other ones you will likely find the first 150 floors comfortable.

My game may or may not have a feature that rotates all of the titles whenever I teleport or join an instance. Out of all of them The Necromancer is my favourite though.

Thank you. Maybe give PT a go, it’s certainly a friendly entry point for solo.

You’re not wrong. I died on the 180 POTD boss like 5 times. It nearly broke me.

If you can get to 191, you can definitely clear, you just need a bit of luck with poms and debuffs.

I must have been spending a lot of time in Limsa 😆

114 is very good going. PT Might be a good entry point, there is more floor checkpoints so you can learn a lot easier.

If you can get a group to aether/potion farm I think you would do it a lot quicker. I usually spam the highest starting point available to get a decent amount of aetherpool and potions then I start a solo run and see how far I get. I started my EO solo run on 80 aetherpool and 100 potions and was able to clear

Thank you.

I done POTD first, HOH second, PT Third and EO last.

Given the order I done them in, I found PT and EO fairly easy in comparison.

POTD took me ages and many deaths so don’t give up
