CoP - Calm Before the storm NM question
I am currently on mission 7-4 and I want Sea bad *cough* Blue mage spells *cough* I read that some of the NMs are soloable in CoP 7-4. For anyone who dont remember the NMs, this is the list:

1) Bugard name Bogglemann. High defense and uses blood weapon.

2) Cryptonberry Executer(NIN) and 3 Cryptonberry Assassins (THF, SMN, BLM) which all have 2 hour of their associated jobs.

3) Kraken named Dalham. Does a "Dust Cloud" 2 hour animation at several points during the fight, however, they only indicate that he is increasing its attack speed, not using a 2 hour.

What I read was you can solo the Cryptonberry and the Kraken.
For the Cryptonberries, was pull the Executer and run either to the docs in Carpenter's Landing or to the cave entrance. His assassin buddies will not follow and you can take him out solo, but watch for his Mijin Gakure at 10-15%. (I did the "pull the important mob and wait for the helper NMs to despawn" method for CoP 6-2 A Place to Return for the 3 Detectors) For the Kraken, the plan was to use bind/gravity and nuke him to death.

Has anyone tried to solo these NMs or know if it is actually possible? (I am almost a 72 blue mage and from what I read, Dissmemberment is a must have BLU spell)
