Talk:Wyvernhunter Bambrox
SMN Solo strats (2022)
Not too hard with a decently geared SMN, (G-8) camp, but any camp should do.
Trusts
- Joachim
- Yoran-Oran
- Koru-Moru
- Monberaux
- Ferreous Coffin
The trusts you use are largely inconsequential; however, I would avoid using any tank trusts because the strategy relies on hate being flimsy, you want Siren to be able to easily pull hate.
Gear
Apogee+1, some augmented Alluvion Skirmish gear, mostly just Double Attack/BPD sets to buff up Hysteric Assault. Postive refresh, some DT helps, Grape Daifuku is handy for the pet HP bonus. Capped BP Recast, but nothing too outlandish. Nirvana is not necessary, nor would it be useful in this case.
Strategy
Start with Aquaveil, Stoneskin, and Blink. Have Siren summoned and don't forget Avatars Favor. When done correctly it's unlikely that you will take enough damage to die, but extra insurance is nice.
Pop Bambrox, run her to the pond immediately. Engage, use Hysteric Assault and stand back around 20' until it's around 85% (usually one BP), use this time to allow your trusts to get some enmity built up.
Disengage, use Hysteric Assault. Once Bambrox reaches 80% or lower she will EES and then summon her bombs around the target with hate (Siren). You should already be running to one of the two corners. Siren will die.
Resummon Siren, engage if any trusts took damage or if hate is on you and let them regain some enmity. Repeat for each milestone (80,60,40,20,10).
Caveats
Pay special attention to Bambrox's TP usage. If you break a milestone while she's using Goblin Rush, she will then fire EES which will almost certainly kill Siren. This means the bombs will spawn near you, which will likely kill you after the first milestone.
It can also become complicated if she is close to a milestone but Bloodpact is not ready. Whatever happens, always be sure to be moving before EES. If bombs spawn on you, you likely will not outrange them without movement speed.
The purposes of your trusts are mainly damage sponges, but a tank trust will complicate things, as Siren should be the primary tank.
Bambrox herself isn't much of a threat unless Siren dies before EES. Frypan can nearly kill you though if you get caught in it without stoneskin, so be wary of standing too close between TP moves.
She also seems to get a large amount of damage reduction while bombs are queued up, AFAC or other zergs likely wont work here.

Melee 2024
DRK WAR COR BRD SMN WHM
DRK (any REMA and regular DRK JA's) WAR (any REMA and regular WAR JA's) COR SAM/Chaos (Savage Blade) BRD (NiTro HM VM 2 ATK's or 3 if you decide to SV/CC) SMN (Earthen Armor and other SMN buffs your choice, Kept Ifrit out mostly for the Warcry and DA) WHM (Pro/Shell V Auspice Boost STR Barfira)
After trying this a few times building for trying to take out the bombs or evade the bombardment we found the easy button.
Pop the NM - Auto attack it down to about 80% then everyone just hit it with your Weaponskill of choice the thing will literally fall over.
In the event that it doesn't any DOT from the WHM or BRD can keep it taking a little bit of damage so you can RR up use Tact roll or meditate and hit it with another WS and it should just fall over. Easy day.
After a few attempts we would just junk it repeatedly with no wipes in between. We didn't worry about any of the bombs going off.
