Talk:Bumba

From FFXI Wiki

Party setup: Brd Cor Rng Blu Whm Run

Do not skillchain. Just Savage Blade to victory.


WAR DRG COR BRD GEO WHM

BRD: SV Scherzo, Honor March, Minuet x3
WHM: Boost-STR, Baraera, Barsilencera (we just arbitrarily pick barspells)
DRG: Angon, Dragon Breaker
WAR: Warcry with Savagery Merit 5/5
GEO: Bolster Precision, Fury, Entrust Fend
COR: Crooked Samurai + Fighter, Loaded Deck Merit 5/5

Bumba has about 3 million HP.
Will randomly pick an element it absorb upon claim/agro. It likes to use Dispelga upon claim/agro.

Seems to use Heaven's Grace every 1 minute?
About 4 minute after claim, it will gain ability to use Fetters like the Attonement 3 fights. Healing it with Skillchain or Magic damage it absorb will speed up it unlocking Fetters.
It will randomly pick *!!* Red Blue proc from Attonement 3 fights (either MB, Skillchain, Critical, or WSs at the same time). If manage to proc *!!* Red Blue, after ~4 minute it will unlock fetters again, and will randomly pick which proc it use again.
Have access to Denounce during Fetter mode?
It knockbacks alot, best fight with your back on a wall.

Uses SP once, either Perfect Dodge, E. Sforzo , Brazen Ruh, Invincible, or Yaegasumi.

Plan:
Kill in 4 minute and don't worry bout proc. Everyone use Savage Blade and GEO use Black Halo, cause Savage Blade and Black Halo doesn't Skillchain with each other / themselves.
Geo Focus Impact to claim, WHM use Asylum as GEO start casting Impact (to counter Dispelga). Sometime Impact wears in 4 seconds...
WAR Provoke and position Bumba such that we fight on its side and our back are against a wall.
Once its in position GEO Bolster Precision, Fury, Entrust Fend. Our WHM's Haste last 5 minute, if we can't kill in 4 minute we will probably wipe.
Alternatively if the WHM's Haste is 2.5minute GEO use Entrust Haste instead of Fend. And when Random Deal / Wild Card reset Entrust, cast Entrust Fend. WHM may be busy when fight start and don't have time to recast Haste.
WAR use Warcry and call out when to Random Deal, Wildcard, and Random Deal. Try to keep Warcry up as much as possible on that 4 minute.
If Bumba use Yaegasumi, everyone stop WS on it till it wear off (45 seconds).


If 4 minute still can't kill don't give up yet, may get lucky with *!!* proc if it choose WS or Critical procs, and can extend fight 4 more minute.

WAR DRG COR BRD WHM GEO


BRD Honor March, Minuet x2, Madrigal, STR etude
GEO: GEO Fury Indi STR entrust MIND
WHM: Boost-STR, Baraera, Barsilencera , Haste, Asylum before WAR pull. and use poison potion to negate sleepga and be in distance from aoe.
DRG: Dragon Breaker, Angon , Ancient circle, Spirit Surge.
WAR: WARCRY (Merit Savagery 5/5)
COR: CC Chaos and SAM

After buffs are done, WHM do Asylum >> WAR pull to bridge and other DDs wait on the right side till WAR get Bumba in right position, Then fight it from the side avoid facing it.
WAR has to do Warcry at the start of the fight and then Cor has to do Random Deal/wildcard to get it back.
(Warcry > RD > Warcry > WC > Warcry)
if not successful, War has to inform Cor to proceed to do Wild Card. also around 76% stop weapon skills till Bumba do SP to avoid wiping from yaegasumi.

DRG has to do Ancient Circle, Angon , Dragon Breaker and reapply them once they are back from Wild Card or Random Deal.

at 76% HP stop doing weapon skills till Bumba initiate his SP to avoid wiping from yaegasumi.


DNC BRD WAR COR DRK SCH

The same strategy as those above. The keys here are resetting WAR's JAs via RD > WC > RD, using a WS that won't skillchain, and standing on Bumba's side to avoid knockback. Savage Blade and Black Halo are great here, but there are other usable WS that don't skillchain. The variety of jobs you can use is very wide, as seen in our V15 kill below. Blow Bumba up before it heals enough HP to put up aura, simple enough. At 75% it will use one SP from Invincible, Brazen Rush, Yaegasumi, Elemental Sforzo, or Perfect Dodge. Your Corsair can shoot for TP during PD. Everyone just chills during Invincible or Yaegasumi. Brazen Rush and Sforzo mean you get an extra 30 seconds to kill within.
