[Community Challenge] Nightmare Mote Rush
Author Summary
Dr_Doctore is in Community Challenge
Post Body

Rules:

  • There are no set 'difficulties' to this challenge. The main objective is to complete each Mote Dungeon with a party consisting of 1~5 characters who all share the same 5* JOB SKILL (I.E. All Machinists, all Spellblades, etc.). Combat/Celerity/Support/Black Magic/White Magic/Summon do not count (your characters can have 5* in these skills, but they are not the main criteria).

  • You must represent 5 different jobs, 1 for each different mote dungeon! For example, if you use a team of 5* Ninjas to clear Mote Ifrit, you cannot use a team of 5* Ninjas for your remaining attempts. You are free to choose which job you want to take to which mote.

  • Your RW must also be a character that shares the same 5* job you're using (I.E. I can only utilize Onion Knight during an all-Ninja run).

  • If your character only gains 5* job access through RD, you are allowed to take them/RW them, even if you yourself haven't unlocked that RD. (Please don't waste your precious motes for this lol).

  • You gain 1 point for each character you take. Mastery cuts your points in half. The goal is to get as low a score as possible. The lowest possible score is 2.5 (soloing, and mastering all 5 mote dungeons).

  • You do not have to clear all mote dungeons. An uncleared mote dungeons grants you 10 points (for reference, a 5-man clear gives you 5 points, and a 5-man mastery gives you 2.5 points). The highest possible score without hitting practically all of the penalties is a 50...reserved for everybody who doesn't participate :P.

  • Challenge ends when this current round of mote dungeons ends, which is May 16.

  • The following jobs are the ones eligible for this challenge:

Spellblade

Dragoon

Monk

Thief

Knight

Samurai

Ninja

Bard

Dancer

Additional General Restrictions

  • No OSB RWs.

  • Using Tyro will give that run 1 additional point.

  • RW'ing Sentinel's Grimoire will give that run 1 additional point. (Y'shtola's only 5* is White, so she's an ineligible RW).

  • You will incur a 1 point penalty every time your party uses any same character for different runs! Swiss-army knives like Orlandeau, Faris, Rikku, Tyro, etc. are certainly eligible for multiple jobs, but you should aim to only use a specific character once. So, if you're opting to use full parties for every realm, expect to use 25 different characters. (Penalty will look like this: 0/1/2/3/4, you are penalized once per run, so using 1 repeat character or 3 repeat characters is still going to be the same penalty).

  • You will incur a 2 point penalty every time you use the same character for RW more than once! (Penalty will look like this: 0/2/4/6/8, add 1 if it happens to be SG).

  • Parties of 4~5 must dedicate at least 2 total ability slots to their school. 1 points penalty for every run that does not follow this. ( 1/2/3/4/5).

  • Parties of 3 must dedicate at least 1 total ability slots to their school. 1 points penalty for every run that does not follow this. ( 1/2/3/4/5).

  • Parties of 1~2 are not required to dedicate any ability slots to their school.

  • All penalties are cut in half if you master the run they were incurred in.


Submission

  • Submission Rules: Post your attempts with an imgur album which shows your party set-up for each mote dungeon, for each mote boss dying, and each medals screen. A pic of the boss near death (1~20% hp) is also nice just to show proof of RW, but not necessary. Your party set-up should show the Camp screen so we can see your hones. Please bold above or next to your album (or just label clearly) what job you are representing for each mote dungeon.

  • Please specify if any of your characters only gain 5* access to the job you're completing via RD. It just makes it easier for all of us to identify.

  • I encourage you to not use H&R, but again, not really any way to prove it. If you do use it, just be honest please.

  • Even if you can't beat all 5 mote dungeons, it might be fun to see how far you can get, right?

  • No prizes for this one. Maybe. I can always change my mind, right? I do have some unused flairs lying around after all...
