There is a petrify gaze attack ("Petro Gaze"), but it should function correctly. At least it did last week. Breakga will hit you regardless.
Make sure you're standing in a wide triangle with each member at least 15 yalms away from the other. Fight in the BC area, not on the ramp.
What is your setup? This is probably the easiest BCNM in the game with the correct setup so that's the most important question, and it's 90% like retail with the only issue being the wall pathing that you mentioned. Just don't run TOO far ahead of Sobbing Eyes and that won't happen.
I've done NIN/BLM, BLM/NIN and RDM/NIN or two NINs. But my fastest runs were THF/NIN, NIN/WAR and RDM/NIN (about 6 minutes for a clear).
Sorry to hijack the thread. NIN/WAR - can you elaborate on this? What is the main difference between this and NIN/RDM with fast cast and extra INT?
Thanks!
Back to the main issue. We were getting petrified way too often and I've never seen this before. I even watched countless Nas and retail videos where no one got petrified or it was not over 4 times in the same fight like what we experienced.
To keep hate off of the THF. NIN nukes aren't enough to keep hate against 200-250 damage Sneak Attacks and 400 damage Fast Blades.
