I read a post a while ago, saying that ENM Totentanz (18 people max, with 1 corse) was manaburnable with 2 RDM/NIN and BLM. How does this work, since the corse just casts high level -ga spells, and appears to be magic resistant?

Links will eventually pop up and bite you in the ass if you don't take it down fast enough. I don't know about magic resistence, but he had 100% stun spell resist.
Was it Totentanz, or Shall we Dance? I thought it was the latter, the one with the Uragnites, and Wopa and his group trio it with this setup. He never gives any specifics though.So I'm not sure on exactly what his strat is. I assume a lot of bind nuking? Sleep and silence where applicable?
Could have been. I am looking for an enm that's manaburnable that drops Blau Dolch.
It's Shell We Dance?
RDMx2 BLM do it easy, Chainspellx2 nuke and BLM nuke Parata at start to death, sleep the adds of Bladmall and just kill Bladmall, it's easy.
wopadop posted screenshots of doing it with 3-5 I can't remember how many or what job combinationjust check his xanga
edit: totentanz
that enm is as hard as many people there are in the bcnm, i have no dobt 2 rdm and 1 blm could take it out. needs to be a decked out blm though. also one of those mobs you will have a hard time on darksday
Shell We Dance? - Manaburnable with 3 blm/anything.
-> Focus nuke on Parata
-> Die somewhere comfortable (Or 1 person can kite while the other 2 sit and rest)
-> RR and kill Bladmall
Totentanz? - Manaburnable with 7+ BLM (Prepatch)
(Possible with 6 but risky...after "blm nerf", I would say bring 8-9 BLMs)
-> Just blast it...nothing to it.
totentanz is really easy melee burn, manaburn i don't think you could do it with that few.
4 mnk/war, brd, rdm
all 2hr with rdm chainspell curaga and it dies in about 45 seconds.
I know you said manaburn, but this is equally easy albeit with a couple more people.
oops, wop did shell we dancei remembered blau in his screenshot
Have done the Corse ENM several times in Manaburn format. We take 5-6 BLM, although 6 is safer. Not 100% sure it matters, but we fight in the daytime, and we don't end up having the problem of links. Whether it is a timing issue or daylight issue I am unsure of.
Typical Manaburn setup; get in range, buff up, call out a time. Ignore the spells it casts for the most part; stoneskin basically ensures you'll live through the first volley. Usually takes 2-4 spells from each member, depending on resists/who gets charmed. Ignore those who get charmed/killed and just keep hitting it with biggest spells; 1-2 BLM might end up manafonting. Generally we lose 0-1 blm each run; not a big deal since it's ENM and don't lose exp. Think we'd have to mess up a lot to actually lose this fight; it's pretty straightforward and easy. Drop rate is pretty bad though; I've never gotten a Blau to drop, although a friend has gotten at least 1. Seems like the Urganite one might have a better droprate.
