I can see if I can find out tho what gear he was wearing and if he was using any materia.

Pug does take a few more heals than gla of course but also gets hit less, the damage output is higher so Ifrit will go down faster which can kindda make up for it. I'm convinced we could kill him before he can hellfire but we havent tested it yet. I'm thinking 5 thm, 2 con and a pug tank could do it if everyone was on their game. Closest we have come is getting him to around 30% health.
No matter what +evasion you have on gear or how much you pop Featherfoot, you can't evade Ifrit's attacks except on 1st 15% of ifrit and during nails phase.
And is impossible to kill Ifrit before hellfire pops, during nails phase if you get him to 10-15% hp he does hellfire earlier. ^^;
