Notes/Strategy
- Tartaruga Gigante fight is very similar to fighting Aspidochelone.
- He will periodically retreat into its shell. When this happens:
- It will gain an extremely strong Regen effect.
- It gains slightly higher defense.
- Doing a significant amount of damage (approximately 4000?) will often prompt it to retreat into or out of its shell.
- A typical tactic to defeat this NM is to make use of Skillchains and Magic Burst (usually Darkness or Distortion with a burst of Blizzard IV or Freeze II) to keep the turtle out of its shell.
- It is important to control the amount of damage you burst so that you do not drive it back into its shell in the same volley. Timing your magic burst is a good way to do this.
- It is also important that you try to keep him Silenced, as he will not change his shell state if he is casting.
- This KSNM is easily done with 18 Black Mages or a well coordinated group with a pair of melee and 3 good nukers.
