This Method: 95% of the time, it works every time.
Jobs: 3 x BLM/NIN (preferably capped sub for boosted stats. Just in case.)
Items to bring: One yagudo drink for each one of you, every round. (If each of you have an orb, bring 3.)
Shihei (the whole point of the method.)
Pies (You want a lot of MP and INT. Obv.)
Gear: Dual wield some HQ INT wands or something. (I'm not sure if they're better than the staves, because of level synch)
A lot of RSE/Seer's
Strategy: As soon as you enter the BCNM, cast Utsusemi. Reraise if you want (just in case.) Hike up to the arena, and get close to the edge of it (Don't get too close!) Pick an exact time on the game clock to inform your party to start casting (it's important to synch up, so you kill off the two grunt Hecteyes.)
But before you start casting, drink your juice and use Elemental Seal (also important.) When the clock hits the time you selected, all of you begin casting your best -aga spell on the big guy in the middle.
When your spells land, immediately start casting your next best -aga spell. (Thundaga for most level 40 mages.) If your shadows are down, recast them at the next safest opportunity. (Preferably when you have no hate)
Keep sending off your next best spells, until every one of the bastards are dead.
If at any point you require Manafont, I suggest you use it!
We broke the record every time we did it over the next few weeks.
