Vana'diel Bestiary: Chigre  

As mentioned above his enspells are tiered. He doesnt always start of with the same one.

His first tier is (in no particular order)

A. Blind
B. Paralyze
C. Silence
D. Poison

Once all 4 of those are up, not sure if it has to be on just one person for him to access the other or not.

E. Petrify
F. Virus
G. I think there is one more cant remeber.

His hate system is based off who doesnt have what enfeeble. So if you keep your tank clean he will continually go back to him for the most part.

Hes pretty easy with over 6 people. Just have everyone bring antidotes and echo drops even if they dont need them and it should be fine. PLDs with reprisal do very nice as tanks, so do geared RDMs.

Fought this guy twice last night along with some other ZNMs. He's got fast attacks, high evasion (note to self, eat sushi next time instead of meat), and some crazy en-spells. Going to need some whm support if you decide to take him on. We didn't have a whm, but had 3 /whm which was fine.

As said, he's got a very fast attack speed and pretty high ACC. He goes in order of en-spells, starting off with poison and paralyze, and then progresses to more deadly ones (think en-petrify). Just keep hitting the tank in particular (but don't forget other melee) with poisana and paralyna and Chigre won't progress to the bad stuff. I think he got to blind and virus at one point to, but nothing beyond that.

We had 8 ppl (PLD, SAM (me), SAM, MNK, RDM, BLM, THF, BLU). Poison is a little nasty, I think around 15-20 hp/tic. He does some hate reset from time to time, or at least it wears off some. Be prepared for everyone to take some damage. AND watch the hp after u kill the little guy. We had some die after the fight due to poison and mages not catching it in time. As our mnk said, "free sniper's with resists." It is a nice ring indeed.
