For all Solo, it is recommended to have Signet on. The Defense bonus is significant enough to actually cut damage taken in half on some jobs.

Testimonals

• Easy solo as NIN/DNC.
• Easy solo as NIN/anything: wear eva gear, eat sushi to offset the acc down effect of Yonin, and go Ni->Ni. --Gibgezr 11:27, October 14, 2009 (UTC)
• Easy solo as SAM/WAR with food.
• SAM/THF can solo without issue, but will be dropped to about 50% HP each fight.
• Easy solo as DRG/WHM.
• Easy solo as DNC/NIN.
• Easy solo as BST/???.
• Easy solo as THF/NIN. With typical evasion gear (Empress Hairpin, Battle Gloves, Traveler's Mantel) damage taken is minimal. Bloody and Sleep bolts make this extremely easy, but not necessary.
  • THF/DNC and THF/BLU can also solo with relative ease, but not as well as THF/NIN.
• Easy solo as BLU/NIN. Spammed headbutt/bludgeon. A little dangerous with bludgeon because of its animation time vs Mortal Ray. (Face away before doing anything with an extended animation)
• BLU/THF can also solo these. Keep Cocoon up, and turn whenever you cast anything. Sandspin helps marginally with a decent evasion build, Sprout Smack get's resisted most of the time. Sheep Song will help you take them down faster by allowing you to sleep and then Sneak Attack Weapon Skill to start your solo SC. I find that you're better off meleeing and only using Head Butt for damage, as Bludgeon generates so much TP. Also note that Cocoon will overwrite Frightful Roar, and vice versa.

• Anyone that can use bloody bolts can solo this with absolute ease.
