That guide is incorrect the third set of mobs will always pop now regardless if you kill first two fast enough.
and i dont want to see link of 3 blm video but thanks if you were going to suggest it ^^

edit: 3blm 1war looks like the way to go though >.< even though that itself is exploiting the game some what, i think they made this leve too hard lol

Yes the old guides/strats/videos are outdated since 1.23 since they patched it so you will now get 3 waves regardless.

I feel it was already the hardest of the 7 leves before the patch and now, in my opinion it is harder than the ifrit battle itself.

We tried many different strategies, the one that ultimately won for us believe it or not was WAR WHMx3. Each WHM would take turns casting Holyx2 (via Presence of Mind) on each wave. The WAR would Steel Cyclone & other WHMs cast Aerora.

It was still very close and not sure how feasible this strat is to the general public since all 3 of the WHMs had finished Relic weapons so their Holy damage was increased. After the 3 waves were dead, we would run out to shed hate, have 1 swap to BLM and 1 to WAR.

I have seen many groups try with 3 BLM and leashing them back and forth, but I feel this cant be the intended mechanic and seems to be very luck based anyway whether you can even come close to finishing them off this way in time.

Yeah we've tried the 3 whm method you described earlier and it's just not enough to take down the adds for us.. but for the 3blm method we've just seen a group go in with and beat it twice so i have hopes in beating it soon.

This leve is most certainly the most difficult but if you're using the 3 blm method it's mostly about execution, three firiga and the crit ability is enough to take down one wave of mobs.

it was acctually 1aerora +holy*2 first wave, 1 aerora + holy*1 + 1 aerora + stonra(s) second wave, holy*3 third wave. holy*2 each wave works in theroy but hard to do because on 3rd wave there's no more collusion and no time to wait for war's ws, whm who holy on 3rd wave usually gets hate and die very fast. there were a lot of sentinal,ss and benediction going on as well.
3whm+war stats are all about timing and stay alive!

When I did it to help an LS mate we did 2 BLM, 1 THM, 1 WAR, and changed to: WAR WAR WAR WHM for last mob.

Won with about 35 seconds left.

Also: try rotating resonance pulls when the WAR is recovering HP (after a few pulls or so).

Edit: This leve is not by far the hardest... you obviously have not done the Monk / BLM FNM.

I have done all of them. Multiple times. BLM leve is challenging but not to this extent. MNK leve is a joke.

Obviously I responded right after the guy above me who said this is the hardest faction leve. So thanks for coming in when none said anything to you.

Anyways, WAR is actually fairly easy... WHM is just LAUGHABLE though.

BLM > WAR FNM, easily

Well agree to disagree. The BLM leve can be made easier with MNK as the 2nd DD rather than a 2nd BLM. It takes the 'luck' factor out of the fight as to what colors Princess is changing to.
