Beastmaster only BC40s? - Final Fantasy XI :: Dreams in Vana'diel :: Community

Eyyy, my friends and I are levelling our BSTs up so we can do BCNM40. Which BC should we do? What is the strategy for it?

I'm thinking it would be just all 6 of us charm one of em, we send them after the boss, after our guys are dead, we charm the rest, and attack the boss again, then finish the job if they die.

Is that viable, or am I missing something?

As far as I know, a party can only have ONE charmed pet.. unless you guys plan on bringing broths instead of charming; otherwise you'd fail miserably.

uh... you can have more than one pet per party, otherwise drgs and smns wouldn't get along at all... however, it is one per person, not party

That'sn ot what I mean, I mean one charmed pet per party. I know this for a fact because me and some friends were goofing around and two of us were BST, he charmed something and then I tried and the option wasn't available. I asked, and he explained only one charmed pet per party.

you are very wrong. I saw a 5 BST PT in boyahda a few weeks ago, 5 mandoragoras and 5 bsts attacking a gobbue. I have also PTed with another BST.

You sir, are wrong.

Well, I was only going off a personal experience. Maybe a party of level 1 BSTs can't have more than one pet, but that would be very weird. I was just stating an experience.

here's what we do on the 40BC on Bunnies:
we are:
5 BST
1 WHM

we couldn't find a 6th BST member.

Anyway, when inside the BC, have one BST call a broth, make the broth pet go attack one of the bunny, all the other bunnies will aggro to the broth pet. At this time, the BST should each tame a regular bunny (not the boss bunny), then send the tamed bunnies to attack the boss or other bunnies that's not tame. Just stay far back and watch them kill each other. When the boss died, have the BST that have the bunny pet with the most HP release his pet and make other BST's pet attack that bunny.
It will be as easy as a walk in the park lol

-The only way I found this possible is that the 2nd BST is trying to tame the monster that the 1st BST already tamed. Which of course result in a failed because that monster already belong to other BST or it's already a pet. Can't tame a pet. :sweat:
