Guide
The fight on HorizonXI is not as bad as on retail. Maat RDM is considered easy on Horizon if you go in preparied.
Gear, Items, and Skills
- while not a must have consider getting a Wind Staff if you do not already own one. Its a great item to have for RDM anyways.
- if you are doing the fight prior to the level 70 cap, make sure you have whatever highest Elemental Magic spell's corresponding staff; Water Staff at 67+ or if your nuts Earth Staff at 66. I would wait until at least 67 for Water III. You do not need them but it will make the fight very very simple. So if you have the gil might as well get them. They are a great tool for RDM anyways.
- Do your best to have Elemental Magic and Enfeebling Magic capped for your level.
- Having a few items such as Yagudo Drinks, Hi-Ether's and Hi-Potion's
- Buy some food for the fight. Melon Pie is a decent food. more MP and INT
- Items will be used as needed. If gil is not a big deal feel free to use them anytime. Yag drinks can be used right away to speed up MP durring the debuff / resting phase. Hi-Ethers can be used as well as you like as maat sleeps.
The Fight
- You may wish to run in first and Sleep Maat prior to buffing to stop Maat from buffing himself as well.
- Go in and fully buff up; Protect IV, Shell IV, Blink, Stoneskin,Baraero Phalanx, Refresh. eat some INT foot. Then rest to full.
- Sleep Maat again as needed and debuff him without using and DoT's.
- Once you are ready you will once again check to see he is debuffed. see you have a Yag Drink on. Get to max Yalm casting distance (around 20 Yalms) and hit him with your highest DMG spell
- Aero III > Water III > Stone III > Thunder II > Blizzard II
- Keep Silence up 100% of the time. Maats only real danger for you is if he is not Silanced when he Chainspells
- If your MP or buffs Blink Stoneskin and such start to break sleep Maat.
- By this point if you have maxed out skills with staffs he might have called it. If not do a fast Convert right as he sleeps, cure yourself, buff up and wait for his Chainspell to finish off.
- use Chainspell yourself and just finish him off.
- Again the fight is very simple on HorizonXI, he is very much nerfed, and you do not have to follow the above exactly. many guides on other wiki's warn you about how hard this fight is, but if you go in with some preparation you will be fine. Below is a fight from HorizonXI's Server. (Pending makers OK)
