Let Sleeping Dogs Lie

[ronin sparthos]

So considering there is almost no information on this BC30, has anyone ever beat this BCNM before and care to share experiences?

Ive heard things thrown around like using 4 BLU or 4 NIN to tank each hound but nothing of real substance beyond that. Considering they appear immune to all forms of sleep, any help on how to win this would be most appreciated.

I remember watching a video a while back (shortly after BLU was released iirc) of a bunch of BLUs and a BLM or two killing all the hounds via AoE spells. Since hardly anything aside from AoE spells were used, all the hounds died within a short period of time and none respawned.

If you're interested about the video I'm referring to, search "FFXI let sleeping dogs die" in youtube, it should be the first match. I'd post the URL but my post count is too low :<

it's like 4 copies of y/y from what i understand and if any of them die early/late you're screwed. the only viable strats that i know of are as stated above, either cook them all with AoEs till there's nothing left but 4 dead dogs and probably 3 of you smeared on the floor too or get 4 nins and some healers to slowly whittle them down and backtank them till everyone's dog is at 1%, then finish them all off w/ a quick ws.

SMN pt should work for this, 4smn + brd + leech or whatever. 1 pet on each one, make sure the leech is capable of helping to ensure successful recasts without range getting too wide, kill with thunderspark spam.
