Everyone has quitted and my gears are, at best, 'entry-level' to put it bluntly. I do have PLD and WHM available on both accounts but no Aegis, Ochain or Excalibur as you do.

My attrition and pet Jobs (RDM, PLD, BST), unfortunately, does not allow me to keep up with the NPCs damage on Arciela. And while I respect all you Relic holders, I do not think I will ever spend months (or years) to obtain and upgrade Relics to Level 99 just to clear these SOA missions.

Well then bring your gear back up like it was back then!!! If you approach these like you did those you can win with just 2 characters!!! As far as what I have Excalibur is useless, Priwen is a fine substitute for ochain and nothing was so dangerous magically that aegis was needed. It also is fairly quickly made relics are really easy and fast these days

Why not have your whm heal her? Not like she needs much healing as if you run in and position correctly she will stay out of range and most the mobs will stay on you most the time. Potey I think solod them all on rdm though being the curing and fighter is somewhat mp intensive but you got a whm account too so that wont be a problem. Though it might not be accurate to call bst attrition anymore what with 10k+ ready moves and as low as 10 second ready recast, run wild and Unleash and skillchain you could probably zerg on bst
