Qilin

From FFXI Wiki


General Notes
  • Higher level version of Kirin
  • Does not use Astral Flow
  • Immune to Stun
  • Has a strong auto-regen effect
  • Casts earth-based magic including Stone V, Stonega IV, Stoneja, Slowga, Breakga, and AoE Quake as well as Sleepga
  • Uses the following TP moves (all are single target except Heat Breath):
    • Heat Breath (1000 fire damage, cannot be blocked by Fanatic's Drink or Fool's Drink, but can be partially resisted)
    • Great Sandstorm (Earth damage & Blind)
    • Great Whirlwind (Wind damage & Choke)
    • Tail Smash (Physical damage, absorbed by shadows)
    • Tail Swing (Physical damage & Bind, absorbed by shadows)
    • Deadly Hold (Very high physical damage, absorbed by shadows)
  • Can summon alternate versions of the lesser sky gods one at a time, like Kirin. The summoning order is random, and more than one (up to all four) can be out at a time if they are not killed. The first is summoned approximately 2-5 minutes into the fight, with additional summoned every 2-3 minutes thereafter. They will not use 2-hour abilities, and once killed they will not be re-summoned, but they do use all of their counterparts' TP moves as well as cast higher tier versions of the spells associated with their element.
    • Xuan Wu (Genbu) occasionally has a Poison aura, casts water-based spells (AoE Flood, Water V, Waterja, Waterga IV, Poisonga II)
    • Bai Hu (Byakko) occasionally has a Flash aura and high evasion, casts light-based spells (Holy, Banish IV, Banishga IV, Diaga III)
    • Qing Long (Seiryu) occasionally has a Silence aura, casts wind-based spells (AoE Tornado, Aero V, Aeroja, Aeroga IV)
    • Zhu Que (Suzaku) occasionally has a Paralyze aura and amnesia additional effect on melee attacks, casts fire-based spells (AoE Flare, Fire V, Firaja, Firaga IV)
    • The summoned helpers have a significant amount of HP and are just as strong as Qilin, so it is typically easier to continue fighting Qilin and have someone pull and hold the summons away from the group as they are spawned.
