We just do a seperate sac for each NM. It's a little sloppy, but it's quick and the only deaths are really the THF (me >.<). Just have your sac take all the scrolls, and after those NMs they only lose like 2-3 k (acceptable, even more so when you get an AF).
You really only need 1 THF/NIN to do -all- the sacing. For the first sac, you fire a ranged attack from max distance, then just book it (no flee).
Then when dead you RR, and get ready for the next. Pop on AF1 Boots (for flee) and flee past the NM tower steps. I F Y O U R E W E A K E N E D D O N O T R A N G E D A T T A C K ! ! ! I can't stress that anymore. Just tap flee and aggro, and run like a little bitch. I've even done this very successfully on DRK/THF when the sacer went down cuz he doesn't have a clue what he's doing >.>;
A friend of mine pretty much pioneered a metric fuck-ton of Pandy's NA Dynamis Strats, and I've learned from him and adapted a lot of the stuff. Me n him talked for hours and finally came to the conclusion that this simple method is the best way to do it. Especially with a very small group, because it only incapacitates 1 person.
With 25... Yeah I'm with Nynja here, unless all your players stil llive at home going DUH DER DER DUH and need their parents to change them, kiting an eye or two as NIN or THF or basicaly any job isn't too hard. Just don't run into the other Towers or the Eyes that patrol to the S (i think it's the S, might be North lol).
Anyways, sniping dynamis with BLMs is... really shitty actually. I parsed it once upon a time in this one shitty Dynamis LS I was in, and mobs that get meleed down tend to drop currency more than ones that are nuked down. AF seemed about even. The difference with mana-burn LSes is that the sheer number of kills helps make up for the lack of meleed down mobs. Seems to even out I guess.
