Guide for Casters

Casters have a unique party buff that contributes to the alliance's overall damage output. Pure Essence of the Elder + Lost Cure IV. With the pure essence of the elder active, Lost Cure IV grants a party-wide AOE bravery buff. It is a 30 seconds buff, raidwide buff for the party and increased damage by 15%. This is a huge upgrade as compared to the regular Lost Bravery. Our Lost Flare Star is only assigned to a Black Mage due to heavy MP consumption of it's ability.

Raid Lost Actions (Assignment)

Casters are usually allocated with the following set of Lost Actions:

Lost Flare Star
Lost Cure IV

Mandatory Holster

Pure Essence of the Elder
Resistance Reraiser

Raid Lost Actions (Flex-DPS)

In each party, there will be 1 DPS slot that is a flexible DPS role. Should a caster be assigned into these slots, they do not need to bring Lost Cure IV

Lost Font of Magic
Lost Chainspell
Banner of Noble Ends

Role Assignment via Spreadsheet

All assignments of strategy are found on the spreadsheet.

When the organizer announced the confirmation of the roster, everyone needs to be familiarized with the assignment given. I'm going to focus on specifically the Caster's holster assignment. Caster primary role consist of two possible types: a free-DPS slot or a Cure IV caster. If you are assigned to Cure IV, you must bring that throughout the entire encounter. The free-DPS slot should bring 2 Lost Actions that buff damage dealt: Lost Font of Magic, Lost Chainspell, Banner of Noble Ends.

We prefer to only assign BLM to Lost Flare Star, due to the nature of this ability. Lost Flare Star last for 60s and only one can be applied at any point in time, consumes 9,000 MP upon use; having a BLM in Umbral Ice allows MP regeneration to be done without compromising loss of damage due to FOM.

Casters in Slimes

As a DPS in Slimes, you are assigned to individual rooms. Check the spreadsheet specifically where you are assigned to. There should be 3 DPS per room.

Casters in Golems

As a DPS in Golems, your sole purpose is to kill the golems in a specific order, avoid traps and follow the callouts.

Bring sufficient stock on these Lost Actions in your holster.

Flare Star BLM

As s Flare Star BLM, you have to push for high DPS rotations.

Primary Action: Lost Flare Star
Secondary Action: Lost Font of Magic
Mandatory Item: Resistance Ether Kit

Avoid using Lost Chainspell as it will increase your MP consumption for Flare Star. All BLM must be using Pure Essence of the Elder. Ensure that Flare Star dot is active on the Boss throughout the fight as it has the highest damage potency.

Guide on Trash Fight and Boss Fight

Most Casters primary role is to provide a party buff Bravery via Lost Cure IV. The Bravery buff is more enhanced as compared to the single target, Lost Bravery. Casters assigned to carry Lost Cure IV must have sufficient charges in the holster. Only 1 BLM will be assigned with a Flare Star duty, an extremely high potency DoT that must be applied once every minute. Finally, Flex DPS will bring along 2 Lost Actions to increase overall DPS throughout the fight.

Trash #1 - Slimes

All Casters are assigned to a specific room to DPS down a Red Slime
Red slime does not hit hard, so any DPS can maintain aggro on it.
Do not let any Red slime merge with other slimes.

Trash #1 - Golems

All DPS will kill golems in a kill order: Blue > Green > Red > White
Avoid traps while moving around.

Trash #4 - Minotaur

Cure IV Caster - Maintain Bravery buff every 60s.
