This BCNM was a joke for us.

Party setup:
BLM/WHM
WHM/BLM
NIN/WAR
DRK/SAM
MNK/WAR (me)
RNG/NIN

Enter the BC, wait for buffs, engage the PLD (Hotblood) from outside the battle area, and wait for BLM to Sleepga the Quads. NIN ran in and pulled the PLD out of the group while all the melee attacked. As we were fighting the PLD, I kept voking the slept DRK. PLD 2houred, we kept fighting it until Invincable wore off and we killed it. Drk (Cruelheart) came next, NIN provoked/used ninja tools until he had its attention, melee engaged, I started provoking the WAR (Hideousmask). Killed the DRK, NIN pulled the WAR, and we engaged. At this point, we were going to take the BLM next, but I started provoking the THF (Jestergrin) since the BLM sleeps well and would cast an -aga on me if it woke.
Killed the WAR and WHM silenced the BLM (Jabbertongue) and melee took it down quick. NIN pulled the THF (Jestergrin) and melee engaged. Jestergrin uses Perfect Dodge, so the NIN would use :Ni spells, DRK used magic, and RNG kept firing away until PD wore off. The THF has very high evasion anyway, so it took a little longer to kill. Finally killed the THF, and all that was left was the WHM. Then it was an all out assault. Legslicer uses Benediction @50% health, but it died quick anyway.

All in all, we did several runs. Had 10 people involved in the group. At one point the WHM sat out, and we went with 2 BLM. DRK sat out one fight and we had 2MNKs going. Really easy once we got strat down. We were finishing every battle in under 11 minutes. Got several Assault Earrings, 1 V. Scythe, 1 Astral Shield, 1 Chicken Knife, and a bunch of smaller stuff.

Vassago Scythe can be dropped from these, my friend had one from BCNM60. lucky guy :/
