Solo'd with relative ease as a 50pup/25rdm; had regen/refresh, ate a hedgehog pie, and used valoredge. Didn't have overdrive available, repaired twice, auto-repair kit 1 & 2, pet didn't go down. Enfire / enfeebles kept rolling, took about 5 minutes. Used tp on shoulder tackle to interrupt. Gear = patas / tarutaru rse.

Solod as 55 Pup/Dnc. Probably could have done it earlier.

Equipd(Not the greatest):
Sainti, Animator+Oil+2
Merc Captains head, RK Aketon, Sarc Cape, Life Belt, Battle Gloves, Spike Neck
Dodge Earring x2, Puissance Ring x2, Combat Caster's Slacks, Savage Gaiters

Auto:
Full Stormwaker...just basic attachments like mana booster, loudspeakers, mana tanks, Flashbulb, and I like volt gun so I used it(adds like 20 damage to almost every melee hit it seems...) Standard auto tactics, Deactivate Activate...no aoe damage so it makes things a little smoother as long as you keep hate.

Items:
Icarus Wing
10x Hi-Potion
Persikos au Lait
Meat Mithkabob
Pre-fight Blink Band

..also brought 5 remedies, 12 Eye Drops, and aother Persikos au Lait that I didn't use, he never did the Disease or Blind moves.

I went in blind basically, but the strategy I'd recommend... The thing misses alot. And doesn't hit all the hard normally. What you have to watch out for is it sorta strings a bunch of damage together. It may just be the way it went for me, but it seemed like no matter what, everytime it'd do "Call from the Grave" I would take around 700 damage over the next 3-5 seconds. So after wasting half my hi-potions out of desperation I figured this out, my recommendation is to keep full health with Waltz + Persikos, til he does this and expect to almost die. Hi-Potion back to about 400 health then dance til you can get your puppet to Cure IV you. Rinse Repeat(inbetween have your puppet nuking). It eventually dies, you just have to overcome these 'omfg' moments.

Like most other AF quests, you don't have to do the fight as any specific job. Just flag it as 40+ PUP.

I'd assume the Caedarva Toad's around lv. 50, based on its HP, and attacks.

73 PLD
73 SAM
60 BLM (me)

We didn't have any problems; it was fun, actually. The PLD's HP never got any lower than 90%, and I took 0 damage. The fight took about 30 seconds. Once you get to the "island" area for the "???", you don't have to worry about aggro, either. Make sure you bring a Warp Scroll, or a BLM, if you're a lower level.
what lvl?

Anyone know what lvl it is, and what kind of party set up and lvl would be best to beat it.

This doom toad look smaller than the other types of mobs or maybe it is just me. drops dark cystal and when u are fighting there is nothing to aggro you while on the island. so thats a plus. BEWARE OF CHIGOES >< while trying to go there.
