Bst, from what i've seen, is safest way to solo this bcnm, although it will cost some gil.
Except its really not.

I love BST, its my favorite job, but its really not the safest way to solo it. Embrava/kaustra is.

When funguar was bugged and you basically had a level 60ish discreet louise, then yes BST was a great way to do it, but not anymore.

YouTube Video Placeholder

There are several other videos.
really just use these:
Kaustra,
Embrava
Regen3
Noctohelix
gravity
bind

and run away from it while it melts and dies.

I really suck as a mage, but I won this the first time and every time since using chat staff and relic armor as a Galka.

Just use kaustra. Using embrava is a waste of time. If you are /rdm you can gravity/bind it as needed.

I think SE had the stats switched with one of the other hq jugs around that level (I think Flowerpot Ben, but I could be wrong )

that was the point I was trying to make, but ran out of patience the other day, thanks for picking up the slack!

Due to the enmity changes and the randomness that has been going on with pet and master enmity; would it be safer/doable to do this as x2 BST?

Funnily enough this fight has always had flakey pet/master enmity so it's no different than before.

The current pet/master enmity issue is that your pet cannot retain hate, if you do not use any actions to generate enmity you will not pull hate - which means that the age-old BST strat of standing back while your pet kills remains (mostly) unaffected. You must take care however, not to use pet commands such as "heel" within the target's radar.
