Have you beaten Ifrit with nobody having sentinel in your party?

That's what I figured but I was told otherwise by a friend of mine who has done the fight a million times, so I took it as fact. Ah well... at least most of my LS has sentinel now lol.

On Topic: It is certainly possible, my LS almost did it but you have to be really lucky after hellfire and the mages have to have a ton of HP+ materia on their gear and food. If he decides to Vulcan Burst immediately after hellfire there's a good chance a couple of people will drop.

He was going easy on us by dashing around a lot one run but then all 3 of the Lancers got excited and Doomspiked all at once then got all blown up. To be fair we haven't beaten it yet so it's a bit of a rush lol

This can be fixed by the below.

Before my static members all got Sentinel what we did was drop two nails down. After two nails are down, DPS all stack on the mage on the left side. That mage will rebuff, stoneskin, cure hp to full. Once hellfire approaches everyone that can will use rampart/defender. Right as Hellfire is started, mages just cast curaga on themselves, what will happen is hellfire will hit and immediatly afterwards curaga will land.
