  • Bcnm 40

    I was just wondering if anyone has done this with their Paladin? I just hit lvl 40 yesterday and was going to go attempt this Bcnm. A friend found a few people going and told them to invite me, however the party going said I couldn't go and that "A pld would get the entire party killed, we need a very specific set up."

    My friend said the party tried twice and they all died twice.....thought that was kinda funny. Maybe they should of had a PLD...I would of least allowed the rest of the party to escape.

    Which BCNM40?

    BCNM's in general are pretty Twitchy though, they're very hard sometimes with even the best strategy and people are afraid of deviating from that.

      Yeah my noobness still shows. Oh well I always say I wish I had the '?' mark by my name. I'm actually not sure. They traded the 40 beastmen seals in P Jueno and went to Giddeus....is all I know.

        That slims it down to either:

        Royal Succession - A fight against five Opo-Opos
        Steamed Sprouts - A fight with seven white Mandragora and one black Mandragora.

        Unfortunately, neither of which I've done, so I can't help you there.

          I dont know about the monkey one, but i have done the steamed sprouts bcnm several times as a bard (hehe part tanking...well sleeping the mandies...anyway)

          The times that i have done it was always with a pld for tank, i think the mandies hit to fast for a nin to tank, although not impossible. The key, again in my opinion, is the drk and or blm to stun the black mandie from casting. From my experiance best pt set up was, PLD DRK RNG WHM(or BLM) to take the black mandie and kill it, make sure if you dont have the drk you have a blm, stun is the winner in this event. The last two are for the RDM and BRD, now a WHM can do this, or another bard, i have even heard of brds just soloing for the time that they are dealin with the 7 weaker mandies, however i prefer the safer route which is the rdm (has convert if there is trouble).

            on another note - I have done Royal Jelly several times as a pld/war.
            Our set up was Pld/War, Drg/War, and Whm/blm. I think it is a 40 BCNM.
            Super easy and we never came close to failing. I got a few DD items to
            help me attack better. Also I used both Great Sword and Sword & Shield
            on different runs, but couldn't tell much of a difference.

              Stun is level 45 for BLM, by the way.

              And there's no way a ninja could tank the mandragora BC.

              Edit: I should say...there's no easy way for a NIN to tank this. I'm sure you could bring a ninja along if you had 5 other people that knew what they were doing and could win without him.

              I still prefer the worm BC over this though. Same drops, as far as I can tell.

                I have done Royal Jelly several times as a War, with another War and a Rdm and it was very easy.
                I imagine a Pld could easily replace a War.

                I also recommend Divine Punishers when you hit 60. It's a 6-person 30 minute vs. 6 Yagudo and very easy to tank as Pld.

                  I did Steamed Sprouts as a PLD a few times. It wasn't ideal (I kind of wished I was WAR/MNK) but it wasn't too bad. Gearing yourself for DD and bringing some juice really helps. The mandies aren't really that hard to tank individually, but the biggest problem for you is killing them expediently (along with the other DD) and keeping your MP up. It can definitely be done though.
