BLM SCoB Turn 4 (Turn 9) help?

In the group I'm in, the summoner uses the limitbreak. You'll probably know how much damage that limit break does anyway, giving you enough time for 2-3 flares to hit both Nael and the add thus benefiting the whole group. That's why I use my flares as soon as the add appears, since the tank in my group immediately pulls it towards the boss. The summoner uses the limit break a few seconds afterwards. It's also especially helpful if the melee focus on Nael as well, maximising flare's output.
'It wouldn't help the group' ofcourse it would considering how this thread is about improving dps. And honestly, considering how the OP is still progressing onto phase4 I doubt he/she even cares about inflation. Any and all dps counts when you're trying to progress, and any way to speed up the fight is always a big plus.

We just have the summoner use Bane iirc and the LB and it dies. But surely its more important to burn the boss to push the phase especially if you haven't cleared it?

IIRC i115 Bane + LB3 + tank's contribution is just shy of killing it depending on when you LB3. In which case it's actually beneficial to get one Flare in on the wyvern in the interest of getting your tank back to Nael a little sooner.

A buffed Enkindle helps too.
