Conditions
I've tested this several times -- it seems that when under Impossible Odds, you simply can't keep conditions on Shiro. The notes said to blind him, but blindness is actually counterproductive here. — Stabber ✍ 18:46, 4 June 2006 (CDT)
- I think upon activation (not upon hit), all conditions are transfered to those in the effect range. I tried blind flash spam but it always get transfered (and then the party takes a beating). --8765 01:42, 22 November 2006 (CST)
Hexes
When Shiro activates Impossible Odds, he loses one hex. I've tested this repeatedly. You either must use a cover hex, or hex him immediately after he uses Impossible Odds. Carinae Dragonblood 11:25, 14 September 2006 (CDT)
If you have an assassin and an SS Necro on your team tell the assassin to immediatley use his celestial skill, star strike, and the SS Necro to use SS.. Shiro will promptly kill himself ^_^
- so this is why i used ss on him at half health and he died withing 2 seconds.--Coloneh

I have been trying to use Echo and Blackout together to completely disable Shiro's skills. He just goes right on and uses them when he should be blacked out. Can someone else verify this for me? Glassman324 14:02, 3 March 2006 (CDT)

Something we noticed during the Shiro fight in Gates of Madness. A Mesmer in the party cast Empathy on Shiro right after impossible odds was cast, and he DID NOT attack AT ALL. The craziest thing we have ever seen. He just stood there and did nothing. Could this be the AI trying to not kill itself? Isk8 10:27, 28 July 2007 (CDT)
- Might've been some glitch or another with how he was supposed to attack or something, I know that the AI won't stop attacking with Empathy or SS in order to stop from killing itself, though it does stop with Backfire --Gimmethegepgun 10:33, 28 July 2007 (CDT)
