Kinda lazy to invest in a lolmelee setup, when I still lack actual mage pieces more useful.
Of course suggestions and ideas are welcome.
I've done Shiva, Ramuh, and Ifrit on RDM/BLM. I strongly recommend RDM/NIN though. The fights are a lot safer, easier, and faster on RDM/NIN. Since it is your first attempt, you definitely want to go /NIN. Try to use as much haste gear as you can to maximize the amount of damage from en-spells, and for Utsusemi recast. Also, you will only be able to land enfeebles that are strong to that avatar. (Slow on Ramuh, Gravity on Titan, Poison on Ifrit, and Paralyze on Garuda.)
