BCNM Fights lvl20
Hello

Me and 2 other LS friends are looking to experience a BCNM, none of us have done it before. LS generally doesnt do BCNM's, dont like them for some reason.

So, the 3 of us are lvl 25 RDM/BLM (ME), 24WHM/RDM and 28WAR/WHM

All subs leveled

WHat would be (if any) the best BCNM to start off with? WOuld of course be lvl20 capped BCNM.


Thanks for advice

Re: BCNM Fights lvl20
If you had 2 rdm/nins and a mnk/war I could give you one to do.( 3 crabs one) 100% manny body drop if I recall correct. As it is I have well over 800 b seals and 100+ k seals no one ever wants to help me use up.

Re: BCNM Fights lvl20
With that setup you won't really be able to do any good BCNMs. Only one I can think of that you'd stand a chance at is Charming Trio and that's only because it's so easy to do.

The War goes in with a great axe and tanks/DDs the middle one, the rdm gets geared for DD and helps kill it while the whm heals them both. One it goes down you move to the one on the right and after that dies you kill the last one. You'll need a few hi-pots, yag drinks or other MP refresh juices and maybe some ethers. The leeches can drain your HP, MP and TP so you'll have to watch out for that.

Most BCNM fights, especially lower lvl ones require somewhat specific party builds, you can't just walk into most of them and expect to win.

Re: BCNM Fights lvl20
The drops from wings of fury are awful. All I keep getting are those Platoon weapons that nobody buys. And Ive done it around 10x already.

Re: BCNM Fights lvl20
:/

Thats why my LS doesnt generally like them, saying that changing jobs for it and building a job specific party was often too much hassle for the rewards

Oh well, might try thr Trio at the weekend then, see how the rest of the gang feel about it
