It does take extra patience, but I did one with bard+blm yesterday.. Wiped about 5 times, as I was new to the fight. I think you can do better if you geared up a bit more (darklight), not saying it's impossible without but it does take some meticulous hand work. If you had better gears then healers will have easier time with you, especially that random nuke that hits for 300-ish damage and is very frequent.
It does get extra hard when adds come out and there's an AOE circle in front and black gooey thing behind. I was playing as a scholar and the lack of medica actually makes it the whole lot harder (repel does 700-ish, i heal 200-300ish+shield, i was using AF gears and ifrit book but I realized I wasn't healing them back to full health fast enough)

I do think as you gear up this fight becomes easier, and the game is still in its early stage so I actually like where it's at now =)
