Kills the (HW) primal you have set on the party leader over and over until stopped farming the mounts.
Undersized Party only.
Loots the chest at the end using the following logic:
You need to ensure you have inventory space on all characters.
Handles cross world parties. If you are NOT the leader, check NON-LEADER.
Desynth: Will attempt to desynth ALL weapons that drop from the primals. (Currently only working for items in inventory (hoping to get it working from armory soon))
Will only desynth if you have desynth option unlocked. It does NOT make any other checks before desynthing. It does NOT consider your desynth level before attempting.
Uses when: Not in combat and No target and when option is selected (global variable, it is saved) and timesince last desynth > 8 seconds
Does NOT support Duty Finder.
The firebird quest, it is named in the list of mounts, but you need to do the quest manually. It is simple, go to Idleshire and talk to the quest giver next to the Aetherite, next talk to the Wandering Minstrel in Idleshire, and finally go to the hand in point.
Automatically farm all mounts like the Pony Farm. This is because of needing 4 characters and not being able to easily detect which each character has got.
This addon CANNOT solo any of the primals. You need either 4 characters with bot subscriptions, or you plus a group of friends all with a bot subscription and the addon.
Testing on this addon has been done using MCR, this means certain fights, such as Thordan and Bismarck, I turn off provoke so adds are kept separate. I do not have such control over standard profiles or ACR.
For Nidhogg, smart DOTs need to be turned off, or you will likely fail until you have a high enough echo. This is due to the skill profile trying to DOT an add that cannot be and makes you fail the DPS check.
Healers need to have curing available with or without a target and in and out of combat. Some of the fights you will be taking damage but not have a target. MCR Astrologian was great for this, one set as barrier stance, the other on healer/regen stance. Lightspeed is also a huge help when you are moving a lot.
Each fight has different requirements, please ensure you fully read before purchasing the addon as you will need up to 4 accounts to be able to complete every fight. Characters must be level 80.
Please ensure you use the trial time to verify your characters and set ups can complete each fight. I'd suggesting in the following order as it is based on the difficulty.
Zurvan | Sophia | Nidhogg > Sephirot > Thordan > Bismarck > Ravana

Bismarck
Min. Reqs: 2 tanks
Ravana
Min. Reqs: 1 Tank 1 Healer
Thordan
Min. Reqs: 2 tanks 1 healer and 1 other job
Nidhogg
Min. Reqs: 2 tanks 2 healers
Sephirot
Min. Reqs: 2 paladins 2 healers
Zurvan
Min. Reqs: 2 paladins 2 healers
Possible with 1 tank, 1 healer, 2 dps with additional setting at 55% or below. (ilvl430) Broken Seal MUST be skipped for this to work.
Sophia
Min. Reqs: 2 tanks 2 healers
Skill profiles tested using are mostly MCR, though in Nidhogg I used one char on a standard skill profile as it allowed healing at higher percentages which is needed due to the amount of AOEs.
Color Guide:
red: Not Perfect. This is either due to Minion not being able to detect the mechanic or due to skill profiles not being able to be fully controlled. The mechanic will be handled in the best way to mitigate damage / knock back.
orange: The mechanic is ignored. This will either be because it is a non-issue, or due to phases being skipped.
green: Mechanic is handled correctly with no issues.
blue: Not coded.
Bismarck
Phase 1: Kills adds then carapace
Phase 2:
Ravana
Thordan
Nidhogg
SMART DOTS MUST BE TURNED OFF FOR THIS FIGHT OR YOU WILL LIKELY WIPE DURING FANG AND CLAW PHASE
Sephirot
Zurvan
Zurvan now has an additional setting. This is for players using more than 4 characters. (This setting is saved, if you change party size, remember to change it).
4 Character, the 70 should work just fine. Any more characters, you will need to lower this number. This is to ensure you do not run off the platform before The Purge has been cast.
If running, 2 tanks, 2 healers, 2 DPS, I'd suggest 50. If running more, 40. Please note, you may need to adjust this until you get it running correctly.

2020/01/02:
UI update with new options.
2019/12/31:
This update brought a new setting option, this is for those running more than 4 characters to ensure you do not run off the platform during Zurvan before The Purge is cast. With 6 characters, 50 should work. If more than 6, please lower further. I'd suggest 5 below the % you get to when the platform is destroyed.
This setting is saved, if you change party size, remember to change it. If you enter a number higher than 70, it will be changed to 70. If you enter something that isn't a number, it will change to 70.
