Safi Jiva Farming tip

[jrubz]

Staying in the quest after stage 2 with less than 10 minutes left is useless. Save your time and restart the run simultaneously with everyone.

You lose no rewards for leaving the quest.
This is not kulve taroth. All rewards are kill and partbreak based. Just reset and get a chestbreak in the final run,

it is possible to slay Safi in 1 run for speed Material farming. if the party has good partbreak & dmg build (3 Aquashots + 1 GS?) usually get reward level 9 - 13(breaking Head twice, Back, Wings, Forelegs, Hindlegs and Chest)

require coordinate Attacks and CCs (para/sleep/KO/environments) but it's very efficient for mats farming. (and little room for mistakes, each run take 16-19 minutes)

edit: my party was running 4 aquashots tho. it's a bit harder to break the chest which gives big score, but not impossible)

It's hard enough to get people to do the actual siege that this trick seems impossible to pull of in most random groups. But it is a good tip.

I would already be happy if people could stop going after the legs first.

Yea, that's the thing, this tip is more for rando rooms that don't have meta setups and are getting wrecked quite often.

In first stage that's kinda mandatory as that's the best way to shift safi around to traps so you can get the energy sapped as fast as possible.

In 2nd stage it's still the best things to hit for damage for melee weps because his head and tail move too much (tail is a bit easier, but it still shifts upwards too much for consistent damage sometimes).

Stage 3? Yea, there's a ton of other hitzones with better values available.

You do lose rewards though, 2 Gold boxes to be exact.

that's if you never kill Safi Jiva. I've done the skip run several times and got a level 15 completion full set of 5 gold boxes still.

the max gold boxes is 6. not 5. the 6th is only awarded for r17 actually.

the pain of getting a full 6 has never made me want to bother with it though. It's so rediculously difficult without a massively good team that it makes the gameplay less enjoyable.
