Mambo
From FFXIclopedia, the free Final Fantasy XI encyclopedia
Mambo is a type of Enhancing Song used by Bards. It increases the Evasion stat for party members within range.
Two songs give this effect. Different tiers can be combined.
Notes
- Mambo is most commonly utilized by Ninja or Thief tanks using Utsusemi, usually in small group situations (but not limited to just those), where their survival is more important than their offensive ability. A properly skilled and geared "blink tank" will evade even more often and have a much easier time maintaining Utsusemi with the help of Mambo.
- March is another song that may be of help in similar situations, by lowering the recast time of Utsusemi while still improving overall damage output.
Songs are learned by Bards only, at the following levels:
- 13: Sheepfoe Mambo
- 53: Dragonfoe Mambo
