Talk:Dropping Like Flies

After reading this, the last point, were it sates the Summoner should use Reraise, after being KO'ed, then gather MP to use Diamond Dust again. I thought this would not be possible as all status effect are remove upon KO. Therefore the Summoner's Astral Flow effect would have worn off, thus preventing him from using Diamond Dust again.


All status effects are not necessarily lost, just most of them. Most people don't have a 3:00 long Two-hour, so most wouldn't know if it stays after death. Other status effects, such as Dedication, stay on after you die, so it's possible Astral Flow does stay (I can't confirm or deny it, but it's possible). --Chrisjander 14:52, 5 April 2007 (EDT)


Astral Flow does remain after death. I've personally attempted to solo this BCNM in this fashion. Unfortunately, 2 Diamond Dust's weren't enough to kill the flies in my case. Turnerbrown 01:23, 2 October 2008 (UTC)


I'm pretty sure Mercenary's Mantle doesn't drop from this BCNM. It's probably confused with Mercenary's Targe. --Majinsean 22:11, 11 February 2008 (UTC)


Mercenary's Mantle doesn't drop from this BCNM ; confused with Mercenary Mantle. Updated. --K-Raptor 08:23, 25 April 2008 (UTC)


Light Opal has to be in the shield grouping as well. Last time I did this, both Light Opal and Magic Finale dropped, but no shield or other jewel did. Added it. Multiple Insect Wings can drop, as well. --Azulmagia 18:20, 7 July 2008 (UTC)

groups[edit]

I did this bcnm today and got both the both a "Wrestler's Aspis" and a "Clear Topaz". Here they are listed in one group, I think the "Clear Topaz" should move to the group with "Utsusemi: ni" of which i got nothing. If proof is requierd I took a screenshot ----Nataku01 21:24, 28 September 2008 (UTC)


Actually, i think it may belong in both groupings, which seems to be the case with the other gems too. --Jawat 03:14, 29 September 2008 (UTC)

Diabolos' Nightmare[edit]

This does sleep the flies, but the radius is pretty small. My first attempt I slept 4 Houndflies, 1 resisted, and the others were apparently out of range. Turnerbrown 02:20, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Has anyone tried BLU Soporific? That's a darkness based sleepga, if the element is what's causing sheep song to fail. kim2jy 2:58am, 16 October 2008
