    Our group has been trying the Blizzara trick several times now and it seems to be random for my group. Sometimes it delays the re-spawn of the void lanterns and sometimes it doesn't. Any suggestions, I've been at it for like 3 hrs now >.<

    If i use Blizzara it is instant cast, nothing happens, timer goes to 30secs and says "your blizzara fails" (hey.. not my fault it fails lol). Issue #2 is flare, casting on yourself..

    Looks like you have to kill the wisps at the same time or another wave spawns instantly.

    Yes you do, or at least kill them with a 1-2 second difference. We won after 20+ wipes, but we did it!

    The Blizzara strategy works, but if you need extra details:



    I'm 93% sure that someone will question our strategy(even if it's the same everyone's using) and/or say something is better, but hey - it worked for us.

    1 Tank (our guy decided to go as GLD, for the extra abilities)
    2 CNJ (1 could work, but better safe than sorry)
    1 THM (extra abilities "just in case")
    4 BLM (I think we went in with only 3 - it was late!)

    The tank has to lure the enemies to the entrance and once there the BLMs have to cast Blizzara at the same time. If even one of the lanterns stay alive they'll re-pop instantly and you'll wipe pretty fast. Once the lanterns are defeated all of the mages go near the shrine (or the closest you can get to Barbaros), because the lanterns respawn from there.

    BLMs have to do this (after first group of lanterns):

    (while Blizzara is on cooldown) Thunder -> Thundara + Freeze
    Once Blizzara is ready, all BLMs/THMs have to stop and wait for the next group of lanterns.
    Blizzara -> Kill lanterns
    Repeat

    Good luck!

    Also, it's not like this dev team is being true to the roots of the jobs anyway.
    This game is not WoW; if you want WoW, go play WoW. If you get butthurt when people mention Final Fantasy XI, then shut up about WoW.
