General Strategy

The goal is to limit his TP gain by using BLMs to deal all the damage. Combined with Absorb-TP, Ultima should never have enough TP to get any moves off.

BLM

Use Tier IV nukes

Aspir whenever it is up

Pay attention to how many spells are being cast and how much TP the DRK are getting from Absorb-TP, stop nuking if it gets too much TP until the DRK can absorb it

Keep up dots: Burn, Choke, Shock, Poison II, Bio II (must use Apollo's staff to 0 the damage)

BRD

Have macros to swap parties

Double Marches on DRKs

Double Ballads on mages

Keep up Elegy at all times

RDM

Haste and Refresh DRKs

Keep up Slow II and Paralyze

Stun Dissipation

DRK

Hate spells: Sleep, Sleep II, Bind (VE)

Use Stun to help each other get shadows up and get hate

Staggered Absorb-TP rotation

Battle Plan

First 80%

1. DRK secure hate
2. RDM and BRD handle debuffs/buffs
3. BLMs keep up DoTs
4. Once hate is secure, BLMs begin nuking
5. All the BLMs cast 1 Tier4, then a DRK casts Absorb-TP
6. Continue alternating Tier4s with Absorb-TP until each phase change
7. When he aproaches a phase change, RDM gets ready to stun Dissipation
8. BLMs trigger phase change with a volley of Tier4s and the RDM Stuns Dissipation

Final Phase

• Once the Dissipation signaling the final phase is stuned, Ultima must be killed quickly to avoid wiping to Citadel Buster
• BLMs nuke all out without using Manafont until the Citadel Buster countdown begins
• When Citadel Buster countdown begins, whoever has hate stays with Ultima and attempts to do as much damage as possible during the countdown and everyone else leaves the room
• Once Citadel Buster goes off, everyone returns to the room/raises
• RDM Chainspell+Stun, BLMs Manafont and go all out
• DRKs cast Absorb-TP as often as possible to prevent Magic Shield
• BRD Troubador+Soul Voice double Marches in case the DRKs need to zerg
• If Magic Shield goes off, DRKs M.Kris zerg
