Wings of Fury  

ive done this bcnm countless times wether its soloing or duoing it the best solo job to have is in fact bst ive done it bst/nin for the dual wield im a galka so if i subbed whm it wouldnt help much. charm a furies and pop 2 hour send it to fight the colo-colo make sure you have about 10 hi pots and an au laut fight the other furies you should be able to beat it before your charmed furies is dead so rest DO NO T ATTACK COLO-COLO because if you kill it before your charmed furies is dead your two-hour lasts 30 minutes you just failed unless u can cancel two-hour (idk how) bye the time your furies is dead the colo colo should take just two-3 more hits and hes dead.

ive duoed this easily without my twohour my bst/nin and a sam/war charm first furies and have him attack colo colo have sam start fighting other furies until you can help kill that one relatively quickly and then come back to fighting the colo-colo hopefully your charm is still up. have sam pop two hour on the colo colo and kill him then the last furies. i recommend a bunch of hi potions each but ive never lost duoing with a sam.

the last trio combo that ive had is me bst/nin sam/war sam/war we did this for fun like the duo i charmed the first furies and sent him after the Colo-Colo the two sams beat the first furies then both two houred the colo-colo by that time the last furies was easy. we beat the record and noones gotten close yet to beating it ^^

Just solo'd this as 20 BST/WAR (Galka) on my first try. Went in with 6 Hi-Potion+2, 2 Pamama Au Laits,4 Boiled Crayfish and a stack of Pet Food Zeta, and came out with 1 Hi-Potion+2, 10 Pet Food Zeta, 3 Boiled Crayfish, a Gunromaru, 1500 gil, a bat fang, a Platoon Sword, and a Scroll of Sneak. Trying again for astrals once my 2 hour comes back.

So here's how it went down. I used a boiled crayfish and a Pamama Au Lait before entering the battlefield. Once in, I charmed the Furies on the right (first charm successful), sent them after Colo-Colo till they got hate, then sent them after the other Furies till they got hate, then back on Colo-Colo. Then I ran to the other side of the battlefield while they duked it out, and remembered to use Familar (lol). That's when I noticed that the hp regen from my Au Lait was removed when I entered the battlefield... so I popped my second Au Lait, and sat down to rest. When my furies were about dead, I used reward to give them about 1/3 of their life (350 hp) back. I didn't get any hate at all from reward. Then, I sat back down until they died. When they died, I stood up, and failed at charming the other furies twice before a successful charm. Then I sent them at Colo-Colo, used a Hi-Potion+2, and sat down to rest. When the furies were about dead, I used reward to heal them again. Shortly thereafter, Charm broke. I stood up, and 2 Hi-Potion+2 and 3 Charms later, I had them back under control. I send them against Colo-Colo again, and then got hit with poisonga -.- But, it didn't last long, and the au lait was regening me through it anyway. After poison came off, I rested until the Furies died. By this time it was just me and Colo, me with about 2/3 of my hp, and colo with about 1/10 or less. I melee'd him down the rest of the way. He drained me once and used the drain weaponskill (I forget the name) once, as well as marrow drain (which Aspir'd that mp that I didn't have to begin with). I used 2 more Hi-Potion+2's (one of them wasn't needed, but I figured it would be nice to have that extra 120 hp in case Colo decided to pull something strange like Elemental Seal + Drain or something XD) and then finished him off with Raging Axe. Whoo! See top of post for loot list :D

Linkshell friends and I got 2 astrals to drop the other night. About time too, I'm about 1/5 on this.

I got my butt kicked the first time I tried to solo this as BST. Mischarm, they mass drained me, I ran outta Hi-pots... Ghelsba dirt is bitter...

Came back with a RDM and ended up mischarming X4 before it finally worked. But I ended up getting my revenge in the end.

No ring though >.<

So today I tried this BCNM as my first ever BCNM. I had had the Cloudy Orb for over 2 years (I quit playing for about a year and a half, and just started back up). I went in as a BST/WHM. I took with me 7 Hi-Potion +2s (on Quetz they are only 800 gil apiece).

So, right when the fight started, I just went up and charmed the left Furies and had it attack Colo-Colo. I also used my 2 hr at this point. Then I took the other Furies away and meleed them. Once Colo-Colo killed my pets, I attempted to charm the Furies I was fighting...it failed. So I ran like a little girl and tried again, and this time it stuck. I turned them on Colo-Colo and they ended up killing him. Then I just sat and waited for my charm to wear off (did a little bit of healing at this time). When it wore off, I used my WS that I had been storing up and killed the Furies. I ended up getting:

Bat Fang
Bat Wing
Platoon Dagger
Platoon Edge
Scroll: Thunder Spirit Pact

So, no Ring drop...but still not bad. I also ended up setting a new record time of 6:02 (old record being 6:23). This was a great first BCNM experience, and it was relatively easy to do solo with BST/WHM. So, I will definitely do this again.

A couple of LS mates and I decided to give this BCNM a shot today.

We tried two slightly different set-ups.

First run was

RDM/WHM
BLU/??? (can't remember the sub for the life of me)
RNG/NIN (myself)

For the second and third run, the RDM/WHM changed to DRG/WHM.

The first run was tricky. Our plan was to have the Blue Mage run in and use Sheep Song. Since it's light based, we figured we'd have a chance of sleeping at least one of the bats. Well, it didn't work this time - all three resisted. I ended up doing the majority of the damage, and went through four hi-potions to stay alive. Even though my gear wasn't all that great, I had enough accuracy to land my ranged attacks 90% of the time and do anywhere from 40-50 damage on the Furies and 35-45 on Colo-Colo. I won't go into much more detail, as this set-up was less than ideal. We barely managed to scrape through, but no Two Hours were used.

Second and third run went much smoother with the DRG/WHM. We tried the Sheep Song strategy again, and it worked! Colo-Colo and one of the Furies were put to sleep, which gave us free reign to beat the crap out of the bat that resisted. We then took out the other Furies and ended with Colo-Colo. Third fight went exactly the same way, the only exception being that all three were put to sleep at the start. ^^

While Colo-Colo's AoE Poison is a bit annoying, I'd classify him as the least dangerous mob of the three. The Furies use a nasty AoE attack called Turbulance, and hit pretty hard with their usual attacks. They have pretty low HP, however, and when we focused on one it only took about a minute to kill it, if that.

Drops were dismal. Myself and the Blue Mage got,

500 Gil
- Bat Fang
- Bat Wing
- Black Rock
- Scroll of Invisible
- Mythril Beastcoin

The DRG/WHM got,

500 gil
- Platoon Dagger
- Thunder Spirit Pact

So while we got **** all for drops (except for the Thunder Spirit scroll), it was a fun BCNM, and my first successful one. ^^b

I did this bcnm 8 times now and won 7 (1 *****-up ><)
My Drops: Astral Ring 1/7 Platoon weapons: 2/7 Thunder pact: 1/7 Rocks: 2/7
This was my setup:

-Mnk/War <Kairy> me ^^
-Smn/Whm <kakashiuchiha>
-Bst/Whm <Pushpa>

We basicly went in did some buffs and consumed food, then i'd charge to the left Furies provoking it while BST charmed the right 1 and let him fight Colo Colo. The smn
Used Shiva to attack colo and 2hr "Daimond dust" While i kill the left bat with 100 fists and trowing some combo's at him, and occasionally using a hi-potion. after i killed it i attacked colo who was at 1/3 of his health so easy kill and the furies will almost be dead too at that point. After u kill em all a chest appears and u'll get gill and items.

Hope this helps a little for any1 who has yet to do this bcnm.

btw i also hold the record on my server (Ifrit) for this Bcnm which is 3min 45secs.

I've recently completed this BCNM as a level 20 BST/BRD. Dominated. I took along Selbina Milk for extra Regen, Tuna Sushi, and Hi-Pots for mischarms. Before engaging, I prepared myself by singing a little melody that I like to call "Army's Paeon", then engaged. For some reason I'm drawn to charm that left Furrie when inside, so I charm him (when he allows me), use Familiar, then send him on Colo-colo. Once he has Colo off of me, I send my charmed Furrie to attack the other Furrball. While they all fight eachother, move away and heal or what-not. Be careful though because if you're too close to the group and you use Hi-Pots or Selbina Milk while the bats are fighting, you can gain hate and the whole group of bats (besides the charmed Furrie) will come at you with a vengeance. One Furrie should eventually die, so charm the other and send him on Colo-colo when you can. Keep singing to yourself in between bat run-ins to make sure you dont run out of Paeon, and if you mischarm, run around like a little school girl who has wet her pants until you land that charm. In the end, you'll obviously be one-on-one with either a Furrie or our buddy Colo, so be prepared for battle. I set up /equip macroes so I was able to change from charming equipment to defensive equipment throughout the battle. If you are fighting a Furrie at the end and are low on HP, don't hesitate to charm the lil' guy to allow yourself some time to heal. All in all, this is a fun BCNM, especially for those who have never done 'em before, let alone solo.

Final note: This was my second try at this solo. First time was as level 20 BST/WHM and I didn't make it out alive. I think the extra CHR from BRD helps, but I also want to say that I went on their weak element day, Lightninsgday I believe, to try and get any advantage possible. I am also now more of a BST fan than ever before. Good luck and have fun!

what job can solo this if any? maybe bst but not sure how you would do that, so if you have any ideas or suggestions please help me out :D thanks

Hey all btw the hut is at G-9 in Ghelsba Outpost in case you were wondering.

Just soloed this as Bst/Blu.

Used standard strategy, but a word to the wise. If your going as Bst/blu be careful and don't over debuff the Culu, then the remaining Fury will be very strong. When the Culu died the remaining Fury was at about half life, it was a very tough battle. Just killing the Fury at that amount took me 2 Hi-potions, a yagudo drink, and a pear au lait, and it still came down to the last two hits. So be careful about that, you want the last solo fury to be near dead.

edit: my friend who also soloed this as bst/whm told me something else you should know. Don't use 2-hour on the second fury.
repeat

DO NOT USE 2-HOUR ON SECOND BAT

he did this, and what happens is that your pet will kill colo-colo, and then never uncharm, and when time runs out, you will lose.

Also set new record on Gilgamesh with bst/blu bst/whm and blm/whm, just doing it for kicks.. it's a waste of seals, the drop rate for ring for me is 1/9 atm.
