    I'm sure people will get the trick eventually on the 1st boss.
    Three runs in a row doing it resulted in three very easy and painless kills. Wasn't risky for us at all.

    If you're ilvl70+ then of course you can. There's a lot more optimal strategy though. For one thing, stuns do full length on dogs don't you know. With some things our side is still trying to get down, you can go through the 1st boss with less then 2 stacks, resulting in less then 1k damage on counter hit (the ones that aoe burst your stacks)

    In fact you can probably get it down to no stacks, if you bring the healer into the dps (which you can totally can) You can totally down both dogs before stun wears off, resulting in no stacks, or 1

    Can someone help me with strategy for siren, please? We all kept getting charm, and she would always hit our healer 1st

    Siren strat:
    1. Stack in the middle
    2. Kill adds asap, kill crawling add first
    3. Whoever has the curse (purple icon) needs to be topped off in HP before it ends or they get charmed

    Just finished this dungeon for the first time, myself and the Tank were i80+ BRD was in full Tox and BLM was in full DL, both with relic. I do not think this dungeon would be doable in below i60, which is what it drops, the last boss was very difficult to heal even with quite a few i90 pieces, due to the AOE heal debuffs and the charm mechanics. Fun concept, but way out of whack on Difficulty vs. Reward.

    Depends on role set up and cross class skills. Currently our pld spams stoneskin durring the heal debuff. and esuna/leeches do work. The trick is simply not getting separated too far.

    Sch have less trouble with the shields and lustre, but whms have medica2 and regens, and holy (holy is so nice on adds).

    It's more diversified, then single strats like AK. but since siren is mostly composes of tricks, it's perfectly doable with less gear.
