55-57 Ro-Maeve I haven't tried it myself but it looks to be quite nice. Right by the zone in from Zi-tah there's more than enough weapons to make a good chain for even 2 parties, and most people not going for Sky access don't even know about it. I went through @58 for B7-1 and things by the zone were VT to me so i assume they would be ideal for a 55-57 party that could land their debuffs.
Tried this tonight as a mostly lv57 party. It was definitely exciting, and we had a good time watching all the lv70+s look at us and go "wtf?!?!" However, most of the weapons were checking VT to me (the puller, only lv56...need to fix that) and many of them were only T to the lv57s in the party, so EXP wasn't great. The few that did check as IT to me took quite a while to kill. They spam an AoE that does a fair amount of damage, stuns, and will eat the shadows off a NIN or WAR/NIN tank faster than a starving chocobo eats gysahl greens. So our tank went and switched to WAR/MNK and got smacked around heavily. Also, these guys have a really annoying trick of running *behind the walls* and hitting the mages from there. >_> That said, all our melees were in heaven because our WSes and such were hitting rather higher numbers than we'd been doing on crabs previously. Our RDM, however, was full of angst because his magic bursts were hitting for half of what they normally did (weapons are rather resistant to magic). I think this camp would be absolutely wonderful for a lv55-56 party with a PLD tank and some heavy physical damage dealers. In fact, when my PLD gets close to 55 I'll be putting together such a party to try it again.
