Voidwatch weaknesses

[LoneKenT]

Those lazy bums finally documented a list of procs, which seems to be complete

Aside: wikipedia info is so outdated. They only have the links to proc list and the BG forum thread.
Outside of BG, information doesn't seem to spread as fast anymore.
POIDH? ok!!

End aside

Get those voidstones started if u haven't from "Voidwatch Officer", at the 3 cities, or the one in sauromogue (outside of Jeuno's gate/wall/whatchamcallit)

Per the weakness messages gained from periapts (of percipience and guidance), the enemy will either be "vulnerable" or "highly vulnerable" to a particular weakness, with the quantity and types of spectral alignment added dependent on the type of vulnerability and what triggered the stagger (reference the spectral alignment table above).

It seems in general people call out "vulnerable" as NQ, and "highly vulnerable" as HQ
i.e. NQ water magic, HQ club ws

VW procs basically dictates most of group 2 merit for certain jobs if u want to cover as much as possible

It seems it might be possible to max all alignment within 1 minutes of battle, if can proc 2 HQ and everyone apeshite during those 2HQ blitz window. Since it's damage based for blitz, this prolly only possible on low tiers.

Whether or not you have upgraded abyssites, you will still be able to obtain rewards from any fights you can participate in as long as you have available voidstones.

So, just need one of the lazy dude to get off their lazy butt and upgrade those abyssite, so the rest of the non-lazy people can leech the highest tier fight. Coruscanti on the first VW u ever do?? Awesomeness!!

There's a quest line for VW, so might be a shinryu like fight when we reached the last VW patch.

Should be noted that you can also trigger MORE weaknesses during synchronic blitz and further extend the time of it, though the window of opportunity is pretty small.

Is that you volunteering?

Voidwatch doesn't play around either, the battles for the upper tiers are quite intense.

New VW tech. /fume


From BGwiki

If a set of weaknesses is particularly difficult to hit and the monster has been alive for five minutes or longer, the current hate target of the monster may disengage and use the "/fume" emote on the monster. This will cause the "aura" of the monster to change, and choose an entirely new set of weaknesses. This will not create a new extreme weakness if it has already been hit. For every five minutes the monster is alive, this can be used once (for example, after 10 minutes of fighting, the weaknesses can be changed twice in a row).
