RDM Maat is the hardest because people go in overprepared.

My friend went 1/10, and some have went 0/15. Don't know about DRK Maat, but I have experience with getting DRK test. It's up there with BLM test as being the most ANNOYING one to try and get.

DRK Maat is probably easier, I have no experience with him as DRK or RDM, but I have heard horror stories about him from my RDM friends.

Rdm maat is satan in a blue cap.... damn his crusty ancient ***. Took me 9 goes to beat that old *******... the words "Maat starts casting blink" will haunt me until my dying days. Got there eventually though, now I just have to talk my HNMLS into letting me have a crack at soloing Genbu. :Pl

Well from a RDM who beat Maat - but only as RDM - I can tell you, RDM Maat is VERY hard. People can try to downplay it, but it's hard as hell. Day and time effects it, level effects it, whether your Enfeebling and Elemental Magic are capped greatly effects it. Gear effects it. Being prepared (which includes Meds, Macro's, etc....) is vital. Plus there are different methods that everyone touts as "the way to beat RDM Maat" you have to deal with. You can sleep/nuke, or you can straight nuke, or you can... everyone says they won it different. Some people gravity and bind and silence. I used none of those and just straight up slept and nuked. All I can say is I was 1/5 (first try I was retarded and tried at 67, no buffs, no meds, no macros, etc... so although I count that in my 5, I don't count that as a "REAL" attempt.)

So, IMO.... RDM Maat is the true test of a RDM. If you can't beat him as RDM you may want to work harder or change jobs. (A lot of people go WHM or BLM to beat Maat that way.) He is very hard as RDM, but once you beat him you feel as if a million pounds has been lifted from your shoulders. I can pretty much say, I feel almost as if I never have to fight him again cause i beat him at the hardest fight. LOL!! (But I probably will fight him again soon on WHM just to kick his old a$$ again!)

Best of luck in whichever job you persue! All fights have their nuances and are difficult, but as many say, RDM is the hardest....

Drk Maat:

Enter naked, equip opo necklace and blink band to run out timer, sleep for tp, equip all your gear and use blink band.

Run in, last resort, bio II, stun, swing, souleater, Guillotine, Vile Elixir +1, Icarus Wing, Guillotine again, hit Blood weapon.

Then you just spam hi pots and a Vile Elixir if your hp/mp get low and you just trade blows with him until you can Guillotine him again. There you go maat beat.

3 mins to buff, 2 mins to kill, tops.
