Vinipata

General Notes Uses typical Naraka moves, including Yama's Judgment (5-count Doom). Spawns with two Vinipata's Narakas. Hate on adds is hard to manage unless slept. Adds may be slept with Troubadour/Nightingale Lullaby, making Bard invaluable. Uses Astral Flow multiple times as HP gets lower which will spawn more adds as the fight progresses to a maximum of 6. Defeating Vinipata's Narakas will cause Vinipata to respawn them. One per TP move until it reaches the current maximum add capacity based on the usage of Astral Flow. E.g. If it has not used Astral Flow yet then it has a max of two adds. Alternates between Raksha Stance and Yaksha Stance, each with respective effects: Raksha Stance -50% MDT while in effect. Will only be used if someone around the monster has a buff on them. Automaton tanks may be used to avoid this mode entirely. The blue Vinipata's Narakas will have shared hate with Vinipata during this stance. The green Vinipata's Narakas will have fluid hate reset-like enmity and will go after any player preforming an action. Yaksha Stance -50% PDT while in effect. Will only be used if the monster has an eraseable debuff on it. Can be forced in this stance by having 4-6 Enfeebling Magic effects active. (see note below on debuffs and stances) Impact is practical for this purpose. Upon activation all Enfeebling Magic effects are removed and must be re-applied. MDT-% is removed in Yaksha Stance but Vinipata's attack power dramatically rises as will its regain and Quadruple Attack rate. The green Vinipata's Narakas will have shared hate with Vinipata during this stance. The blue Vinipata's Narakas will have fluid hate reset-like enmity and will go after any player preforming an action. Will use Meikyo Shisui multiple times. TP moves will be chosen in order based on the current stance. During Raksha Stance: Raksha:Judgment or Raksha:Illusion Raksha:Judgment or Raksha:Illusion Raksha: Vengeance - Muddle and Weakness Yama's: Judgment - 5 second AoE Doom During Yaksha Stance: Yaksha: Bliss or Yaksha: Damnation Yaksha: Bliss or Yaksha: Damnation Yaksha: Oblivion - High damage, resets enmity. Sakra Storm - Resets enmity and inflicts Zombie. Yaksha: Oblivion inflicts heavy damage, reduces all attributes by -110, and resets enmity. Recommended to use terrain to your advantage. Players close to Vinipata may easily be killed by this move. Geo-Barrier and Geo-Wilt greatly reduce the damage done by Yaksha: Oblivion. Susceptible to Tidal Roar although it will need to be reapplied frequently due to stance changes. Vinipata is very resistant to stun although using Elemental Seal and a Bolstered Geo-Languor and Geo-Focus enables the spell to land more successfully. Elemental Sealing stun even with an Idris Blaze of Glory + Ecliptic Attrition languor/focus will still see stun resisted. Multiple erasable debuffs on Vinipata is likely to force it to change its current stance. See the Discussion page for published testimonials.
