done it. its kind of a pain, but not horrible. Setup i went with was 2x PLD/NIN. This is cause their high likelyhood of pld getting oneshotted, so sharing hate so theres more shadows to go around. Otherwise 2 DD, blm and rdm should be enough.

Once inside everyone should stay at enterance. 1 person runs and pulls mob (3 pets will spawn as well, if you dont fight at enterance, they respawn). The 2 plds take the main NM and start building hate, the 2 DD take on each pet one at a time. If i remember right, blm mob first cause it dont sleep, and go on to other 2 pets til they dead. Everyone attacks the NM at this point.

BLM and RDM do their thing, slow nukes/haste/DoT/cure.....all that good stuff. Melee should be /nin as the NM can use orc attacks and for HIGH ass damage. As well as some other AOE move that causes like 400+. The bastard has alot of HP so make sure people are set for long fight, usually 10-15 mins.

Wait, If you dont fight at the entrance they respawn?

They fixed the BC in a previous patch where if you kill the minions, they will respawn and still have hate I believe

Your right, havent had that area in sandy possetion in a long time so havent noticed the change. Still same strat applys, just gotta kill the pets more often, but you have intervals in which the pets will take time to get back to you (if your at gate) since they respawn at their original spawn point. Luckily, they have very low HP (1-1.5k) and will die quite fast.
