Kitanoi’s Rathalos Mount Farm

This addon is no longer for sale. Current users can continue using. New users can look into Dungeon Framework as both normal and extreme modes were added there.

Required: KitanoiFuncs (Free on store)

Required: Argus as of 2021/05 the differnce in win times and success rate is so much better that I will not be supporting no Argus anymore.

I have decided that going forward Argus will be required. I will leave in the old avoidance code but it is so poor in comparison to my new avoidance, and even non-existant for some AOEs. Sorry if this inconveniences anyone - but to be able to improve my addons and continue to support them Argus is needed as all my avoidance stuff is now based on it.

Furthermore, Argus provides all information about AOEs that are detected which allows my avoidance code to detect safe spots - it can detect safe spots in the middle of multiple aoes, and knows the closest one to it. Base minion provides castIDs only - if I want more information I need to include a table of all AOEs in the game to reference a castID against which I do not want to do, especially as every update this table will grow in size and referencing it will take longer and longer.

The amount of work I'd need to do to try and get something similar, but totally inferior, to what Argus allows me using minion only would be so much work it isn't worth it.

What it does:

  • Kills normal or extreme mode Rathalos.
  • Undersized party only.
  • Removes scales from Rathalos' neck and tail.
  • Loots chest on extreme mode if it spawns. (You need to ensure you have inventory space on all characters.)
  • Handles cross world parties. If you are NOT the leader, check NON-LEADER.
  • Uses duty action: Megapotion

50 runs of Rathalos Extreme took around 5 hours. (Using 4 tank characters as details in the skill profiles section).

5-6.5 minutes per run including requeue and zoning times.


What it does NOT do:

Does NOT support Duty Finder. (You MUST run with 4 botted accounts, no exceptions)

Does NOT support Party Finder. (You MUST run with 4 botted accounts, no exceptions)

Due to healing magic not working in the second phase of the fight, this addon CANNOT solo either of the fights. You need either 4 characters with bot subscriptions, or you plus a group of friends all with a bot subscription and the addon. (All testing was done using 4 accounts)


Skill Profiles:

Testing on this addon has been done using MCR. Please ensure jump in / jump out / charge attacks are disabled.

Healers are mostly useless on these fights, healing magic only works on phase one. In phase two, they end up just cast esuna, and try to dps inbetween esuna casts. I suggest not using healers in this fight.

All my runs used the following setup:

1 Party:

  • 1 WAR: ilvl 438 (unmelded gear)
  • 1 WAR: ilvl 450 (unmelded gear)
  • 1 WAR: ilvl 450 (unmelded gear)
  • 1 GNB: ilvl 443 (unmelded gear)

Tanks are superior as they can survive multiple fireball attacks before needing to use a megapotion (duty action). Whereas healers and dps will need to use a potion after each attack.

If using PLD, turn off Clemency, as it is a waste to cast it.

Best to turn off raise if you choose to take healers as it is a waste of MP. You are able to reraise in the fight, up to three times before the fight is over.


Requirements:

4 accounts all with tanks leveled. Warrior is superior as its damage is higher than other tanks. (Gear dependent, you may be able to use fewer characters or other roles).

Set one account with tanking stance enabled, this account should NOT enable Use QTE as they will pull the add to a specific location. The 3 other accounts should set Use QTE so that who ever is closest will mount Rathalos.

Please use the trial to test if your set up can beat the fights before purchasing the addon.

Understanding that some AOEs will not be avoided.

  • All AOEs are coded, however if you get pinned against a side in the battlefield there is a high chance you will get hit.
