Arkanis - BLM 73
Jabberwocky - SMN 75
Maharet - THF 75
________________________________________________________________

Items needed:
-Poison potions (for AoE sleep that taru and mithra have)
-Echo drops, cant stress this enough for those that need them (mages+bards+nins)
-Potions, mainly helpful for melees
-Ethers, mages will need these
-Food, dont slack off get food
-Opo-opo necklace for melee and gain TP while asleep. Sleep in the room before we enter. Also after we wipe mid battle sleep and gain TP while waiting on weakness.
- Sleep potions, at least 2 stacks. ONLY for melee using the Opo-opo necklace.
-RERAISE equiptment piece, THIS IS A MUST FOR EVERYONE! idc if its RRI or RRII, as long as u have one, there is simply no time or MP to spare for others to raise you.
-Icarus wing, for melees

IMPORTANT NOTE, if weere gonna wipe do it on the stairs for farther back, this way we can reraise without aggro, if you die in the circle arena your pretty much useless cause u wont be able to reraise without aggro. and ever if we start fighting a stray AoE could kill you right after u raise. So plz if wiping try to die at the stairs.

well finding like 15 blm for a manaburn run would be hard so might as well do a normal run cause easyer to get people, I just need to farm the illumiint to get my pentasphere.

me me me, i need that earring XD

I think they are refering to Divine Might BCNM. As for if a 68 Whm could help I have no idea, I've never been.

I will go, not much use as a DD but I can kite. I can also farm illumink pretty easily for those that need it, send me a /t

For the love or tarutarus let me go! I don't want an earring, (They all suck for SMN), I just want to finish the damn missions.

yes you only need 1 penta sphere to get everyone it. If we have multipentaspheres we can do multiple runs in case we fail like the first few.

For those who have friends i have no problem bringing em, this BCNM is hard so id say lv 70+ best

also what date do you guys want to do this? I have school on weekdays so weekends best for me.

^ link to alla info on BCNM

from what im reading it looks like we need at least
2 PLD
1 THF
3 NIN
3 RDM
a WHM (obviously)
a BRD (if we can find one)
thats 11 slots with 3 pts allience that makes a total of 18
so that 7 free slot if we go by what alla has posted about the non manaburn style run. Also people have go to know how to kite.


I putting this run together so id like to have a pentasphere if possible for the run. So sleek could you help me farm one?

Hey WHM 72 here {Do your need it?} Just give me time and date so i can organize my self

ill go 75rng or 75 whm

From my experiences with Divine Might, you actually have to kill the taru and mithra within the first 3-4 minutes of the fight, otherwise you're done. This is not a joke, the fight is literally determined in the first 3-4 minutes. Just some pointers from my own experience:

1 - Unload on the Taru...meaning everyone should have 300 tp entering the BC (can get tp by smacking whichever AA you're at the BC of) and make sure everyone has Icarus Wings...the taru must die.

2 - Bring poison potions, which are to be used right before engaging the Mithra. Havoc Spiral (I believe that's what it's called) will do AoE sleep...this will hinder your chances of killing the Mithra off fast, so bring poison pots to avoid this.

3 - Die on the steps. If your alliance is going to whipe, do so a little past the half way point of the stairs. The AA's won't aggro you from there if you are to RR, but make sure they're back in the BC and waiting for your 2nd wave before you start raising. Know that if you die in the actual BC, you're pretty screwed and useless to the alliance, since there's no way to tractor you.

GL if you guys go, it's a fun fight ^^

Hehe touche, sorry about that. Yeah, I'll still help out even if I don't get an earring. Or I can possibly come with my own BC item. :-) Thanks for clearing that up for me though.

Ok how does everyone think about Saturday Oct 1st? lets say about 8PM EST and meet in jeuno. This gives everyone a week to farm up gil for items.

Listen to what the posters said, get poison potions. Also get a reraise item like the hairpin or erring or gorget. Everyone MUST have reraise. This is a serious battle to get the lv72 earring. so dont be expecting RIIIs there is simply no time and whm needs their MP for healing.

Every1 interested Post if you can come on Oct 1st, ill edit my 1st post and add in a roster of whos coming. (please note if you have a pentasphere) as for me, hopefully i can get my illumnink this weekend.

The more pentaspheres we have the more attempts we have at DM.

- Im not sure on this one so give me input, what about the Opo-opo necklace for melee and gain TP while asleep b4 engaging? Is this good or a waste of a few precious minutes?
