Scouting the Ashu Talif

[mangochips]

I'm taking a some friends to try to do this enm. I know the basic strategies if you have 3x BLM or such but their jobs are limited. Was wondering if its winnable and if so how with these jobs:
Character's Jobs:
#1 DRK75 COR75 BLM75 PLD75 WAR75
#2 THF75 WHM75
#3 PLD75 SAM75
#4 PLD75 SAM75
#5 SMN75 RDM75
#6 WAR75 SAM75 DRK75

Those are the jobs each player have Lv75. Not sure if its doable without a lot of stress and having to be error-less. I'm sorta new to these forums and any help is appreciated. Thank you in advanced.

I'd go RDM/BLU, COR/WHM, WAR. I personnally do it rdm,brd,mnk, the brd being dual boxed. RDM/BLU with cocoon and def food is here to pull and "supertank" all fomors, while the melee just kills stuff. /whm must erase dia from the rdm and backup cures. RDM must silence imps with fast cast gar (up to 4 imps at a time). Melee must use aoe WS.

Adding extra people cannot hurt you and will shorten the length of the mission. When we added a BLU, it took us 20 minutes.

So this enm is actually doable with only 3 ppl? So if not rdm/blu would pld/blu work?

PLD/BLU or PLD/RDM should work, prolly pld/rdm better. But then you have to cope with imps. 4 AM1 or tier4 on pld will kill it.

Are the imps sleepable? Like can I Light Shot them.

3 SAMs using sword for Circle Blade, THF, PLD, RDM, and you'll have an easy, easy kill. Just look up the strat for when you'll be getting the Revitalizers, because SAMs can easily take out an entire wave with their 2 hour, and one of the other SAMs can zerg the imp.

Gonna try it out this weekend hopefully it works

the key here is AoE damage

You'll have to balance it based on people's comfort and gear on jobs and such... but Plds or sword sams for AoE Blade... Drk has that aoe scythe ws... Blms for tier2 ga will work too.

Eventually, multiple imp mobs spawn, so sleeping isn't really an option... it's a matter of taking them out quickly.

I kinda like having a blm, a whm, and then AoE DDs... either 3 + brd or 4. I would even go so far as to say job 70+ is fine, especially if that opens better AoE dd for you, such as blu or mnk...
