Re: CoP 4.2 - a failed manaburn attempt
When I did this we tried heavy melee and it just horrible. Rdm, whm, 4DD with no luck for us.

We ended up doing it with a 2 blm, rdm, whm, pld, pld set up. The two invincilbes and covers are nice for the Blm and you could easily replace the whm with another blm.

Have your pld have a /assist <t> and use it on Ouryu to find out which blm has hate, so that one can be covered/cured first. Muslims are nice, 10 mp that they can use fast, ether work okay as well. If you want to bring a smn, you can swap out a blm and have them use garuda. Garuda doesn't take much damage from him, and can tank for quite a while (eliminating one sleep cycle for the blm)

I would say bring int potions or something, but there is likely death involved for the blm, so that would be a waste. But plenty of mp recovery items would be nice. Possibly a bard 2hr ballad could help if you have one available as well.

Personally I wouldn't try the melee approach. We failed 6 times with the melee approach, and won with a more mage happy party.

Hope you best of luck.
