"Only Bastokans can enter the BCNM." I'm not sure whether this is right. Normally the rule is only people doing or done with the mission can enter. Can anyone verify? --Beaux 19:06, 1 May 2007 (EDT)
Only Bastokans that are on, or past this mission,,, rather obvious. Cheers Aphugel 06:59, 14 January 2009 (UTC)

- Soloed by an Elvaan BLU75/37NIN, No meds but Tavnazian Taco, no deaths, sub-par gear (AF, Ifrit's Blade/Dissector) and only a few merits. Started the fight with Actinic Burst and slept all with Yawn, immediately killed the RDM turtle -> WAR -> WHM -> DRK, and used Actinic burst+Sleep on every rewake. I made quite a few mistakes but was still able to win with just a little time left over. Lunarel 20:00, 17 October 2009 (JST)
- Easily trio with NIN/WAR WAR/NIN RDM/BLM
We killed White Mage, Red Mage, Warrior, Dark Knight. Our RDM died tho, but that cus of a really bad timed Convert on Dark Knight mob. -- Xiath 14:06, 23 January 2009 (UTC).
- Easily duoed as Blm/Rdm and Rng/Nin. Blm basically was keeping things asleep and graved so the rng could get away easier, and the rng just shot them down.Overblaze
- Easily soloed as Nin/Dnc. Killed in order of DRK, WAR, WHM, RDM. All I needed was 1 meat mith & 1 persikos. Clear time 17 minutes, 32 seconds & no deaths. :) ~Kittyn 12:17AM, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
--Well, congratulations on your skill, if you did this "easily".... I went in with Nin/dnc and full eva gear, did not have a chance, got the first mob to 60%... Not recommended. cheers Aphugel 06:56, 14 January 2009 (UTC) --Kittyn has relic katana.
- Easily duoed by 75RDM/BLM and 75DRG/BLU. The RDM's main part is to keep all the mobs slept while the DRG tears through them using cocoon for def and pentathrust as often as possible. The DRK mob seems to have ~4500 HP, others are probably similar. No food or meds used, easily won without convert.
- Just did this today as a trio of BLM75/WHM37, WHM75/BLM37, and RNG75/NIN37 no problems. They sleep easily without the need for Elemental Seal. BLM should just keep Stoneskin and Blink up at all times and re-sleep as necessary. As long as BLM keeps his MP up and puts sleeping first, I can see this done with any job combination. Having three aspirable monsters makes this easy. --Haggai 07:05, 30 December 2007 (UTC)
- Soloable by a SCH75/37RDM, no meds used, took a while about 17+ minutes. Quadavs hit for about 60~130ish damage but did not resist any enfeebles at all. Sleep2ga at start and pick them off one by one, saving a strategem for sleepga when they wake up. I did RDM > DRK > WAR > WHM, killed in that order. Dispel the RDM and possibly the others if you notice resists due to shell. Draylo 11:38, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- Soloable by a BLM75/37RDM. Used Manafont, but no medicine. The whole fight took 19 min. Order in which I killed the NMs was: WAR > DRK > RDM > WHM - killing the WAR first because it's the only non-aspirable mob. The fight is a mix of sleepga's, resting after sleepga2's and aspiring every time you can - unless you are resting. I finished WAR with my initial manapool, finished DRK with aspirs and resting. Manafonted the RDM and almost killed WHM with Manafont too. Freeze II and Burst II got it down to 1% where it used Benediction. I slept the WHM and finished it after getting enough mana points from resting/aspirs. --Inoiown 15:27, 27 November 2008 (UTC)
- 3 people at 75DRG/SAM, 75THF/NIN 75BLM/WHM Can do it fine with no problem. A 75WHM/37NIN 75BLU/37NIN and 75SMN/37WHM can do it fine also. Easily duoable by 75 BLU/NIN and 75 RDM/BLM in about 10 minutes. Soloable by 75RDM/37BLM (takes around 17-20 minutes.)
- Soloable by a SCH75/37RDM, no meds used, took a while about 17+ minutes. Quadavs hit for about 60~130ish damage but did not resist any enfeebles at all.

- Duoed this as WHM75/SCH37(me) and a friend of mine as a WHM75/PLD37. We failed the first time because we goofed and made some noobish mistakes (hey no ones perfect). But we dusted off and tried again. What we did was casted Banishga to deal with any potential Blink the WHM and RDM had up, then we proceeded to sleep the RDM and WHM, as well as the WAR with repose, as we teamed up on the DRK. we pulled back to near the BC entrance incase of wipe. The WHM woke up and instacasted Curaga III waking everyone up, which was almost disastorous, but we hung in there, got everyone to sleep again, killed the dark, and proceeded to take down the RDM. After the rdm fell we decided to keep the war and whm slept while we rested a bit. After which we killed the war followed by the WHM. I used Aspir/drain and dispel as needed (When I could use Addendum black of course).. all in all it was fairly tough, but we pulled it off in the end! Very fun fight ^^
- Duoed with SAM75/NIN37 and BLM66/WHM33 (yes level 66). The order that we killed in was DRK > RDM > WAR > WHM. Went in and buffed up and Samurai was allowed to meditate twice. Started fight off with Elemental Seal + Sleepga 1. Samurai pulled DRK and fought completely solo for the majority of the fight. BLM must keep distance and maintain sleep on the rest of the mobs, blink + stoneskin is a must. Coordination with the SAM definitely help (telling the other when one woke up). With 190 (definitely not the level 66 cap) + 10 (Wizard's Coat) along with a NQ Dark Staff, Sleep NEVER resisted once. The BLM will almost never need to heal the SAM because the Quadav's accuracy was quite low. BLM had to cycle through all sleep spells but Sleepga II (didn't have) due to the Quadavs waking up at varying times. DRK mob: first to fight, be very wary of Blood Weapon, take him out fast before he gets the chance to use it. RDM mob: simple fight, watch out for the usual enfeebles, Gekko took care of Chainspell. WAR mob: Lots of HP (longest to kill), but very easy, Mighty Strikes was nullified by low accuracy and Utsusemi. WHM mob: simple fight, Gekko took care of spell casting, Benediction only delayed the inevitable. Overall, an easy fight with a decent amount of skill and simple coordination involved. No 2 hours were used, no food was used, no medications were used, 16 minute fight. Good luck~!
- Duo by 75PLD/RDM and 75 BLU/NIN. PLD ran in, Flash the DRK while BLU uses Soporific to sleep the rest. Systematically take them down from there, using Actinic Burst and Soporific again to sleep as needed. ~Solrain 8:02, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- Duo by 75BST/WHM and 70 SMN/WHM. SMN ran in used Shiva's sleepga, then BST Sic Courier Carrie following the recommended order. After SMN used sleepga they would then use Garuda's Predator Claws followed by resting. When Quadav would wake SMN would repeat cycle. Took 3 Jug pets and SMN used Shiva's Sleepga 4 times. Didn't set the record but was easily Duo'd.
- Easily Duo'd by a 75BST/NIN and a 75 BLM/RDM. Blm sleepgaII at start, Bst used Courier Carrie to fight. Blm resleeps as needed (never once was resisted) and Bst takes down the Quadav. Took 1 Carrie with about 3 Rewards, and 15 minutes to win.
- Really easily duo'd by 75RDM/BLM and 75MNK/DNC. Open with ES Sleepga, mnk started to with DRK and 2hred it. RDM proceeded in keeping the other mobs sleep and enfeeble the one melee'd by the MNK. A really easy fight that didnt even require MNK to use evasion or attack gear: he fought it in AF2. Took 13 minutes, included the initial buff and rest time.
- Completed with a NIN/WAR, WHM/BLM, RDM/WHM, and BLU/NIN (Tank, DD, Healer, and Sleeper).
- Completed with a DRG/WAR, BRD/NIN, RDM/BLM (Tank/DD, and 2 Sleepers).
- Can be trio'd as long as a sleeper exists.
- Can be duo'd with a SMN/WHM and BLM/RDM. After taking out two Quadav, SMN rested to full for 2nd two.
- Can be duoed easily with a RDM/BLM & MNK/DNC.
- Can be duoed with little to no trouble by DRG/RDM and SMN/WHM.
- Duo'd by 75DRK/SAM and 71BLM/WHM. BLM slept the quads while DRK easily solo'd each quad in order of DRK-RDM-WAR-WHM. DRK rested to full health halfway through so the BLM could focus on sleeping instead of curing. Completed in 19.. a little slow but most was for the mid-fight full rest.
DUO ED 75 WHM/NIN RDM/BLM both fighting rdm sleepga whm cures himself rdm cures himself skillchain Hexa Strike Savage Blade silence mobs rdm dispel paralyze II slow II Blind II and keep whm and rdm refreshed RDM make sure you keep up stoneskin blink. fight time 17 minutes 31 seconds
- Duo 75BLM/RDM 75RDM/BLM - RDM sleeper with sleepga - BLM sleep nuke. RDM stayed in circle and kept group slept. BLM started with WAR mob and finished with WHM. Set record 24min 51sec Digimancer 23:10, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
- Soloed as SMN75/WHM37. Ended up running a Sleepga/zombie zerg: Buff up Protect/Shell/Reraise at beginning, Siphon back MP. Ran to edge of circle, summoned Shiva, assualt on Graniteskin then Sleepga and Release. Summon Garuda, Assault Soulsaver and pulled back to hallway and melee. Two Predator Claws took it out even after Benediction. By this time others will awaken, let them kill me in hallway and RR/heal up. Repeat 2nd time and took out DRK with Dia II, 3 PC finished him off. Die and RR/repeat 3rd time and took on RDM, 3 PC took him out also. On my winning run I was left with the WAR left asleep so I didnt need RR/heal a 3rd time, used Astral Flow to save MP and Judgment Bolt -> Spirit Taker -> Judgment Bolt to finish it off. Even factoring in 3 death/RR (15 min combined healing) any SMN75 should have no trouble finishing off in under 30 minutes. -- Nicolaus 12:10, 9 June 2009
- Solo as RDM75/WAR37. "Supertank" build. Order: DRK>WAR>RDM>WHM. Used Protect4, Phalanx@Enhancinglvl300, Stoneskin, Tavnasian Taco, Genbu's Shield, Jelly Ring and Defender. Pulled with Sleep2 on the RDM, and slowly slept the WHM and the WAR as they were beating on me for 0 damage. Main weapon: Joyeuse, Enfire1. Beat the DRK down with melee and Death Blossom. Kept other mobs slept periodically. Kept stoneskin up for Blood Weapon, HP Drain never procced. Once DRK was down, switched to WAR. Kept RDM and WHM slept. Sleep never resisted, though blink was annoying. Mighty Strikes ate my Stoneskin fast, but kept recasting it, never got below 3/4ths health. Once WAR was dead, Converted, and switched to Martial Knife and Enaero2. Used Thunder 3 every 100TP and Energy Drain'ed the MP back. Kept a total of 300 Enhancing Skill in gear on at all times, Enspell procced for 40DMG per hit, cap. Silenced the RDM through chainspell. Once RDM was down, was smooth sailing. Took off Defender and Hit Berserk to melee the WHM down. Benedictioned early, otherwise harmless. Never was there a point in the fight where I almost died. Relatively textbook fight for Veteran RDM. Battlefield Time: 21minutes 21seconds. MisutoAsura 21:56, 2 July 2009 (UTC)
Side note: a whm/blm can sleepga them, without even elemental seal. (I have enfeebling 220 though). Duo'd with PLD/nin and WHM/blm. we ended up fighting the whm down to half, having him still wake everyone up with benediction, but we survived, and finished in 23 mins. Keep your stoneskin fresh, and have a sleep(1) falback macro too! PLD did use some ethers, and chivalry once. --Theferret 05:20, 16 July 2009 (UTC)
- Easy Trioed by sam/warx2 and drk/blm all 75. Drk has enfeebling magic skill 105(yes, 105) meditatex3 + sekkanoki, then Elemental seal + sleepga. All sleep and zerg mode: hasso, berserk and warcry, first nm died with 4 ws. Sams 2hr and killed the other NM, sams wiped and reraised cuz second sleepga failed. RR and wait the unweakened to kill the last mob.
Rank Points
After attaining Rank 7, I had to trade 4 stacks of crystals to get 7-1 (as it says on the page for 7-1). After completing 7-1, I had to trade 4 more stacks of crystals to get 7-2. (I did not redo any other Bastok missions in between.) Fiorenzo 18:28, 3 November 2007 (UTC)
I trade 3 stacks and individuals til mission appeared on list. If I counted correctly, it took exactly 46 crystals. Please verify. --Aleckszander 01:40, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
