--Calikat 02:52, September 17, 2009 (UTC)Calikat's Maat Fight Strategy (Great Axe)Calikat 02:52, September 17, 2009 (UTC)--

I bought a Opo-Opo Necklace, a stack of sleeping potions, sole sushi, and a few Hi-potions (Didn't use til after I was out of the arena) and a Icarus Wing. I got into the arena, ran to where Maat was and put myself to sleep with the sleeping potions until I had 300% TP. I then used: Retaliation, War-cry, Aggressor, Berserk, and Mighty Strikes and used Raging Rush for 1,105 Damage. I used my Icarus Wing and used Raging Rush again for a total of 899 Damage. My skillchain did an additional: 269 Damage. Maat Hit me once for: 294 Damage, and I retaliated his hit for: 209 Damage. The whole fight lasted 30 seconds but a total of 6 minutes for sleeping time.

    • Equipment I used was: Berserker's Axe, Pole Grip, Bomb Core, Sipahi Turban, Opo-Opo Necklace + Chivalrous Chain, Minuet Earring and a Merman's Earring, Haubergeon, Sipahi Dastanas, Sun Rings x2, Amemet Mantle +1, Potent Belt, Sipahi Zerehs, and my Fighter's Calligae.**
  • Great Axe skill was capped at: Lv.69


A Maat Fight Strategy - Great Axe

You'll need the Opo-opo Necklace, Sleeping Potion x4, Coeurl Sub, and an Icarus Wing to do this. It would be a good idea to macro your Warrior abilities along with the Icarus Wing as you must do this very smoothly.


Once you enter the arena; gear up, equip the Opo-opo Necklace, eat your food, then put yourself to sleep until you have 100% TP. After you have 100% TP you can switch out the Opo-opo Necklace with your regular neck gear.


Once you're all ready, head over to Maat and stand right in position. Now, turn on Retaliation, Aggressor, Berserk, Warcry and Mighty Strikes and pull out your weapon. Hit Maat once or twice and then use Raging Rush, immediately use your Icarus Wing and then use Raging Rush again. If you do this correctly, you'll do a Fragmentation Skill Chain for additional damage. Maat won't know what hit him! If it doesn't quite kill Maat, start praying you finish him off fast as he will whip out his big guns right away which could quickly finish you.

Edits: Maat has about 3.3k HP. Tried this strategy, ofc forgot warcry. Scored a hit, retaliated Maat's hit, used Raging Rush. . .bang 1746dmg. . .dropping him to 30% HP. . . Maat using 2hr hitting me for ~300ish and getting retaliated again (retaliating hits doing slightly more then normal), next hit turning out to be a double attack finishing the game. . . .3mins 23. . . .2mins sleeping TP, 18secs from first to last swing~~

Axe

You will need spartan hopolon, blink band, opo-opo necklace, 4 sleep potions, coeurl sub/sole sushi, icarus wing, vile elixir, and 4-5 max-potions. Sleep TP to 100%, equip blink band, use up enchantments on blink band and spartan hopolon. Change neck gear to the WS gear of your choice. Go up to Maat, use Berserk, Aggressor, Warcry, Mighty Strikes, engage, use Rampage, use Wing, Rampage. Maat will use Mighty Strikes, so be ready to pop potions. It should take a few more hits to cause Maat to give up, if not, you should have enough TP for a third Rampage.

oddball strategy: Axe+Great Axe self SC

Entered, used sleep potions with opo necklace till 75~80'ish tp (going for time record here). Switched to chiv chain used food and sparton hoplon and stoneskin torque and melee'd mat to 100tp. Used Rampage, switched in great axe and mythril grip+1 and full STR gear (vanguard belt > life belt and potent belt) popped icarus wing and Raging Rush. Had the old man survived Raging Rush, that would have triggered Reverberation.

Thats right, his HP bar was completely empty. Normally the old man gives up before its empty. I'm lv 69.

I tested the weapon change + icarus macro on a pld antica beforehand to be sure it does go fast enough for the SC.

I still missed time record by 12 seconds, so if you want time record looks like fragentation is still the way to go.

Elvaan Maat lv 66 (Great Axe)

Equipment:

Items Used: Sleeping Potion x4, Sole Sushi, Icarus Wing

Strategy:

Enter and equip Opo-opo Necklace & Blink Band, sleep to 100% TP Use the Blink Band and equip the Chivalrous Chain & Sipahi Turban. Get close enough to Maat so that he is within hitting range (Do not engage yet), use Berserk, Warcry, Aggressor, Retaliation and Mighty Strikes. Engage Maat fast, and use Raging Rush immidietly, spam your Icarus Wing macro and use Raging Rush again, this will make Fragmentation skillchain. By this time Maat should be dead, or very close to it. If he didn't die he will use Mighty Strikes and start hitting you for 300+ dmg, so hope that your Blink absorbs while you finish him off with regular hits. Fight took exactly 5 min with all sleeping and gearing inside. My Raging Rush did 1059 & 1019, Fragmentation only did 75 dmg though.

Good luck! ~-~Zanno~-~


Maat V.S Silvanesti

When I did this fight I was a lv 66 mithra war. The fight was pretty straight forward. I entered and slept tp to 100% and used my Blink Band. Went in and activated all relevant job abilities including my 2hour, engaged and Rampaged him. Instantly after that I used my tp wing and did a second Rampage. Right after that he 2houred and I popped a few hp potions while building my tp for a final Rampage which finished him off. As far as gear goes I went in wearing a Haubergeon, spike earrings, Chivalrous Chain, woodsman rings, mithra rse feet, Walkure Mask, Amemet Mantle +1, Pallas's Bracelets, Royal Knight's Breeches, Life belt, Bomb Core and a Darksteel Axe. I forgot to take a shield but it didn't affect the outcome. I also ate Sole Sushi for extra accuracy on my Rampages.

Maat Polearm

It probably isn't the first thing that comes to most people's head. That is to use a polearm instead of an axe or great axe, but polearm has something that makes up for it's lack of skill compared to the other weapons. The WS penta thrust is amazing with Mighty Strikes. I have capped Pole skill and 3 merits in it as well though, so that probably helps.

Items: Icarus wing ~ Regen drinks or milks ~ Sole sushi ~ Blink band ~ Opo-opo necklace ~ Sleeping potion x4

Gear: Couse ~ Mythril Grip +1 ~ Olibanum Satchet ~ Empress Hairpin ~ PCC(Forgot to put back on and ended up winning with Opo-Opo Necklace still on) ~ Spike Earringx2 ~ Haubergeon ~ Pallas Bracelets ~ Ulthalam's Ring ~ Rajas Ring ~ Amemet Mantle+1 ~ Potent Belt ~ Royal Knight's Breeches ~ Bounding Boots

Strategy: Run in and greet him naked. Superstition maybe but can't hurt. I went all the way to him until he talks to you not just entry though. Equip opo neck and weapon/grip. Pop 2 sleep potions while equiping gear and blink band. Pop food + milk to regen hp while sleeping and then use 2 more sleep pots. Use blink band and re-equip neck and head pieces. Engage, but don't attack yet. Use another fresh milk, zerk > aggressor > warcry > mighty strikes. Run up and hit him with a Penta thrust, pop icarus wing, Penta thrust again, and then he should be done, if not then only a hit or 2 should finish him off.
