Special Notes:
  • Summoner NM and will Astral Flow between 40-60%.
  • Has access to earth based magic spells and a permanent Enstone damage.
  • Uses all Manticore TP moves.
  • Recommended to have a well geared alliance setup including a main tank for Kirin, an offtank for adds, healers, supports, and dps. Extra tanks, healers, and support can't hurt.
  • Can be tanked in library gear, however better gear is recommended. Other jobs will want to be in a mixed ilvl 109 gear from Sky, Sea, and Low 5 Battlefields.
  • Strategy:
  • Pop him and have Main Tank grab him and keep a healer on the main tank. Kirin summons his adds at fixed points as his HP gets lower. When Kirin summons the lower gods (at reduced strength but still with their jobs 1 hours), the Off Tank grabs them and all DPS move from Kirin to the lower god. Repeat this until all 4 lower sky gods are gone (aka keep a count with names if needed).
  • Everyone attack Kirin, watching conal AoE TP moves and -ga spells, until about 60%. At this point you need to play smart and reduce damage however you can. Paladin's Rampart, White Mage's Sacrosanctity, etc., can directly reduce damage. A Monk's Mantra can boost the HP of the main group. Move all non essential DPS out until after Astral Flow.
  • Once AF is survived, you can continue on until it's defeated, keeping up the HP and MP of the group and watching out for AoEs.
