Having issues with this months. Setting up pick ups ain't easy as there's a lot to do, and I like to do it with my dad who only has WAR available. Some suggest not to use a tank and bring a blu instead for sleep. I've got drk cor (savage) and rdm available. What's a good setup for spamming N or D?
There are no rigid job/weapon requirements this month. You just need:
1) Enough damage to not time out,
2) Enough defense to not get one-shot by Croctastrophy/Galumph,
3) Some way to deal with the hate reset on adds,
4) A WHM, any WHM.
Any DD job will work for this fight. You actually don't want to do more than 25-40k damage on any single WS (+SCD), so that actually discourages the usual suspects, and opens up the fight to jobs that can provide more than just DPS: BLUs, DNCs, NINs, melee CORs, RDM/NINs, etc. Empy Aftermath is also really nice to have this month. Steady damage is the name of the game... you want enough DPS to keep it locked into using Edict as much as possible, but not so much that you cause it to level up.
For defense, whether you use GEO (Barrier, Wilt), RUN (Flabra Valiance), BRD (Earth Carols, Minnes), Barstonra, COR (Gallant's Roll), Full break/Armor Break, Demoralizing Roar/Cocoon, or Aisha: Ichi, or some combo of the above, it doesn't matter. You just need some form(s) of defense/earth elemental+ up so AOE doesn't wreck everybody.
For the adds, you can either do the simplest thing and just bring a RUN and let them save Foil or JA's to snap adds back after edict. Or you can ask your GEO, RDM, BLU, etc to keep the adds slept, which renders the hate reset moot. Either way will work on D and below. VD requires a bit more macc.
And last but not least: I don't care what people are saying, Yagrush is completely optional. Even a meva set is optional for WHM. A run of the mill WHM using regular -DT set, Afflatus Misery, Esuna and Cura can do the fight just as well as a Yag WHM. I've done this fight w/ and w/o Yag -- it's virtually the same experience.
