Information about gear choices for tanking Charybdis as a Ninja Tank
As a Ninja who has helped more than 4 friends get this sword I'd like to comment on Ninja gear setups for this. If you don't have enough evasion gear as ninja you will get killed quickly.
I have capped evasion merits. Here was my gear setup last night:
Scorpion harness MG katana (+3 evasion additional effect light damage) Unji (For subtle blow) Optical Hat Evasion Torque +7 Eva skill Melody Earring (NQ) +5 Eva Skill Melody Earring (NQ) +5 Eva Skill Scorpion Harness +10 Eva Seiryu's Kote (I tried to buy the +10 eva hands but none on AH) Flame Ring (Breeze would have been better) Flame Ring Corse Cape +7 Eva Swift Belt (Scouters Rope would have been better) Fuma Sune-Ate +3% Haste
The unmentioned gear is daytime dependant.
Daytime: Ungur Boomerange +8 Eva Byakko's Haidate +5% Haste
Nighttime: Fenrir's Stone +10 Eva Koga Hakama (or NIN AF Pants) +10 Eva
With this setup my skill was 294 with songs on. Night time, +50 Evasion +7% Haste Day time, +38 +12% Haste.
Imo the +10 eva hands are great for this. I need to get some imo. I sold mine a long time ago after I got Kote.
The begining of the fight is the most dangerous part. Probably you won't have songs on you (Use Evasion earring and Elusive earring until songs are up.) Probably you don't have a haste on you. Chary won't be blinded slowed or paralyzed.
Bring tools to do this, Ninja debuffs stick well and are very effective.
With a setup like this double mambo, and haste, the fight is very easy, I was able to cast Ni > Ni for this. Probably safer to cast Ichi > Ichi and save Ni for whirlwind, but either way works.
