If you aim to get to the 7th floor with 30 min remaining, and still do whatever it takes to open the door on the 6th floor, you're likely not going to be geared very well and will wipe due to being shittily equipped and no stats. If LAC and LBC are any indication, Armored and Battleclad Chariots will have a ton of HP and hit like a truck, so being well-equipped is a necessity.
Unless there's something we're missing here that could fathomably get us to the boss with 30 min left and still be fully equipped to defeat it.
Bigger LS with plenty of mnks, can split out and kill everything on the 1st floor to make the farming run faster. If you really planning to do the boss, this is achievable by bringing enough power to farm what you need before boss. We did 12 people run and still can manage to reach 4th floor with 40 minute remaining(killed princess pudding too, we skipped 3rd floor).
edit: divtheory beat me by few seconds
Reaching 4th floor with 40 min remaining means you gotta be able to pass through 4th and 5th floors and unlock the door on 6th all within 10 min in order to have time to kill the boss.
Even with 8 MNKs, you gotta really haul ass to get up there in time. If you skipped the third floor, that means you took an average of 30 min per floor for the first two floors. You would probably want to aim for 15 min per floor, and skip what you can. But at the same time, you'll need to be well equipped and have stats unlocked so you even have a chance at surviving.
