==Working Job Combinations==
This section is not meant to discourage people from trying different combinations, but to illustrate combinations that have been tried and tested. Please feel free to try this BCNM with any combination you think might work, and above all, have fun!
===Ladies First===
A nice working combination by Amarok, on Phoenix, for this BCNM is as follows.
Strategy:
*1x WAR/NIN with VIT/DEF gear and defense food such as Boiled Crab/Steamed Crab.
*1x WHM with Yagudo Drink
*1x RDM/BLM with Yagudo Drink
*2x WAR/NIN with DD gear and attack food such as Rice Dumplings or Dhalmel Pies
*1x Random DD (SAM/WAR was good for us)
*With the above setup the BCNM was very easy, we went 7/7 and plan on repeating more soon.
*After you go in, buff and rest for MP, the Defense WAR approaches the Dhalmels, with Regen cast on him, puts Defender up and then runs in, to aggro all mobs. (Supertanking). This WAR then just runs around the edge of the circle kiting all the Dhamels while the WHM staying in the middle of the circle casts cures (WHM will not pull hate due to the fact the WAR has only aggroed the mobs, not attacked them in any way).
*A designated puller from the remaining DDs pulls 1 Wife Dhalmel at a time back to the pathway leading up to the BCNM and between the DDs and the RDM. The wives go down quick one at a time. RDM don't bother with Silence, but Dia and Gravity are handy enfeebles.
*When only the main mob (Husband?) is left, everyone joins in, to finish him off. Its good to save TP on the last Wife to go in hard on the husband, as he will spam Healing Breeze throughout.
Making this Strategy Better:
*If you will have 6 orbs to trade, when finished allow everyone but the RDM to "run away" back to the entrance so they don't have to run all the way back round. Once everyone is out, the RDM/BLM opens the chest, everyone can see the treasure and can cast lots. Once all treasure drops, RDM/BLM escapes (presuming uncapped the RDM is at least lvl 58) which brings him/her back to Giddeus entrance and a much shorter run back. If you don't have a lvl 58 RDM/BLM then have the random DD be /THF or THF for flee, and get them to open the chest at the end.
 Other Strategies:
Slightly Different Method:
WHM/BLM WAR/NINx2, RNG/NIN, DNC/NIN, SAM/WAR
Same strategy as the top one. The only difference is as the WHM loses MP the DNC gains TP and they can eventually swap healing duties. This ensure longer life for you kiter.
