I did BCNM20 (2 BSTs and a PLD) and it was really fun ![Smile](https://www.ffxionline.com/core/images/smilies/smile.png)
Our strategy, for any BSTs who want to do this:
Battle: 2 triple bats and one giant. (2 Furries and 1 Colo-colo)
Plan: The first time, the other BST and I went in, ate Flint Caviar (CHR Up) and went to charm the triplets. Even though we both had 40 CHR with a +10 bonus (The best money could buy short of a signa), it still took us about 3-4 tries each o.o. The PLD was then forced to tank way too early as he had to keep the giant off of us. All 3 bats had aoe attacks and were using them with their seemingly infinite TP *very* often (They could all drain too). When we finally got them charmed and sent them after the big bat, we thought everything was fine and went to rest...
Less than a minute later the bats became uncharmed and started attacking us (We were all weak). It didn't take as many tries this time, and we eventually got the big bat killed with everyone and pets attacking it. Now severely weakened still we waited till 1 pet uncharmed and the other bst sent his after mine. The following was a series of charms and recharms until 1 was killed.
Now with 1 bat remaining and everyone critically injured, we waited for it to uncharm and went in to attack it. All of a sudden it felt like using JET STREAM on the PLD... death. The BST and I scrambled to try to finish off the wounded bat, but it's tp aoes were too much for us, and we soon parished after failing to charm it and rest.
2nd and 3rd time:
Now determined to win, we came up with a new plan:
We all fought outside the hut gaining TP, then the PLD (level 33 before the level cap down) cast Protect II on everyone and we rested before heading in.
This time, after going in, charms worked in 1-2 tries. Much better. Now, I used Familiar on my bat to stop to insane charm breaks and resists: one problem down. For the rest of the battle we concentrated on healing the other BST during his re-charms. My stronger pet was sent in first and kept the hate easily, taking most of the dmg before we killed the big bat.
We waited for the other BST's bat to uncharm, and I then sent my weakened pet in to attack it. As expected, it finished off the pet and only had a little HP left. Now everyone, fully rested, went in to attack. We went all out and killed it easily, using Raging Axe+Raging Axe to make Detonation and defeat it!

Treasure:
1 Bat Fang
1 Platoon Axe (LV 20)
1 Gungmarou (SP) (2h Katana, LV. 20)
1 Thunder Spirit Pact (70k in Jeuno AH)
The last time it was even easier. We used the same strategy here, with the other BST using familiar and me charming and re-charming. When the big bat was defeated and the other BST's pet was wounded, I put mine in the corner, used Stay, ran to the other side of the arena, rested, and waited for charm to break. As soon as it did the other beast sent his after it before it could get to me. It killed mine, we killed it, and got win #2![Smile](https://www.ffxionline.com/core/images/smilies/smile.png)
Treasure:
1 Bat Fang
1 Platoon Lance
1 Mythril Beastcoin
1 Thunder Spirit Pact
