Ochain Pld can very safely handle fluid spread. Probably get better dmg results from solo light CDC. Recommend haste from an outside person who won't die like trusts. - Apathy (Bismarck)

This fight isn't too terrible if you increase your Defense with Food, Minne, etc. Using Hybrid sets and boosting defense will remove a lot of the danger, but trusts not receiving Defense buffs will occasionally get popped. Valaneiral is a great tank to use here, as he can take a beating and help cure any remaining party members. Otherwise, make Fusion/Light skillchains quickly and beat it down.

Trivial solo w/ Trusts on RDM/NIN with mid-range gear (Ambuscade +2, Reforged JSE +1, Kaja Sword/Colada). Trust HP/MP campaign was active, but doesn't change much.

• Tested with Valaineral, Matsui-P, Ulmia, Sylvie (UC), Cherukiki.
  • Matsui-P single-handedly shuts down this NM. Make sure to reduce his Stun cooldown with Haste II.
  • Zeid II should be a decent substitute as a stunner if Matsui-P isn't available.
• Apply all standard enfeebles. If using Matsui-P, add Inundation to improve skillchain damage for faster farming.
• Make sure you're in a hybrid DT set. I used Ayanmo +2 and Loricate Torque.
  • The damage numbers on the main page aren't a joke - Gel will deal 2000 damage with Fluid Spread if your shadows aren't up.
• Keep shadows up at all times.
  • You're pretty much invincible to everything except a lucky Fluid Spread, which is a multi-hit TP move and will damage you if all hits connect.
• Support trusts will generally get wiped out on use of Fluid Spread, unless they stand at a distance.
• Enfire and smack to your heart's content.
  • If you can make Light skillchains, burst Fire V for huge damage.
  • Sanguine Blade deals great damage and is the best alternative if you don't have an SC partner.

Miscellaneous Strategy Notes Pulled Off Main Page

• Susceptible to stun. Can be stunned for long durations with Sudden Lunge.
• Sub ninja is suggested for utsusemi to absorb Fluid Spread and Fluid Toss as it deals heavy damage to even ilvl 119 players. (Excess of 2,000 damage possible)
• SC + MB strategy works best as it has high physical damage reduction.
• Possible to be solo'd by Nin with trusts that maintain good distance from NM, but safer to be duo'd by 2 Nin skill chaining Darkness.
• Fluid Spread can be blocked so long as you have 2 or more shadows remaining, having only one when it goes off will result in you taking full damage. (Excess of 2,000)
• Is susceptible to the full range of Ninjutsu debuffs.
