A Malicious Manifest(Windy SCNM) Strats

[Callisto]

We're going to be attempting this in a couple of hours after we farm the last two trigs for it, could anyone offer some tips on how to take it down?

We aren't going to be very BLM-heavy(like 3 tops), I was thinking of having 2 tanks holding Tee Xicu while the rest of the group focuses on clearing the elementals first.

Do the eles respawn, or are there any specific resistances to be aware of?

Add: Approximate HP of the elementals would be nice too, if anyone knows.

if its anything like the quad scnm, then no, adds wont repop. i'd suggest having your pld go /nin. If they have W.legs thats even better. they just cant stop running from what i've seen(granted when i did this we wiped but it was our 1st time so eh)

Well...the Elementals ignored everything we tried to get them to separate, and just shared hate with the NM fulltime...we went down in about 30 seconds, lol.

The elementals hit for about 170 a pop and cast Tornado II in about 2 seconds...supposedly you're supposed to be able to pick them off one at a time, but for some reason Stun + voke + warcry was not enough to get the attention of one.

Has anyone done this successfully that can point out what we did wrong?

I'm interested in a good strat for this as well. Was wondering, if the main problem is getting the eles off the tank and since they are air eles, Would it be easy to land bind/bindga and time nuke or ga them one at a time?

Another easy method is the use of SMN's 2h.

Thanks, if someone has a way for a normal group with only 3-4 BLMs to pull it off that'd be nice as well, not sure if that's even possible but I don't think we have more than 4 in the entire shell.
