PCC bcnm, setup?

NIN NIN BST, NIN NIN RDM.
NINs should sub BLM or WHM, no need for /WAR

/tell me if you need a NIN. ^^
 
It's actually a bit more effective to sub /RDM to the NIN.

But either WHM/BLM/WAR will work fine for the NIN's Sub.

WAR is literally pointless.
Bring WHM if you want the option of curing.
Bring BLM if you want the magic attack bonus.
Don't both with INT gear, as it isn't really worth it.
RDM will work, but I think you're better off going with WHM or BLM, one or the other. Besides a Fast Cast trait, what do you get from /RDM? En spells?
 
RDM will give you Fast Cast and the same Magic Attack Bonus as BLM.

BLM gets it at 10. RDM at 20. It's just nice because you get the damage on your Ni spells as you would with BLM and you're able to throw Cure II's.

There isn't really any kind of Cure Spell that you'll have as a WHM that you wouldn't have as a RDM. Both get Cure II under 20. Both have Barfire/a.

I do the BCNM like I play NIN/RDM ballista. Melon Pie +1, Int +3 rings, RSE H boots (int +3 agi +3), cunning earrings. And basically any 40 cap gear you want. Forget the weapons. They aren't worth it.

Each nuke of mine does about 95-103 damage. (Suiton pulling down the only 103 I believe).

You are right in that /WAR has nothing. But oddly enough. Even NIN/WAR can do this BCNM fine. It's such a joke in terms of difficulty that even /WAR performs perfectly okay.

Good points.
For Ballista I can see using that equipment setup.
For this BC, I think it's much over kill.
My nukes do low-mid nineties with no INT gear whatsoever and eating either Squid or a pumpkin...And I never get touched.
Over the course of the BC that adds up to about 2 Ni spells worth of damage, or a few seconds.

My RDM is still only 15 which is the main reason I never tried it. lol
I like the idea though. :)
 
Ha. My RDM is 13. Been leveling it lately because I want to use it as a sub. I've only played NIN/RDM on my roommates account.

I currently go as NIN/BLM. And enjoying an Elemental Seal + Drain every now and again for shits and giggles.
 
I'm 0/6 on PCC :( Just did 3 of them today with nin, nin, rdm setup, each our orb our drop except if any of us got PCC we would sell it and split it. It was 100% full moon while we were going to it, but dropped to 98% full moon when we started it.

One of the nins died a couple times first time, once the second time. I raised him with my rdm during the first time, but in my opinion he was a bit gimped with hardly any gear on :/ but we still won all three, but no good drops at all >.< not even erase or Utsmetsu: Ni

I just got a gold beastcoin and fire pact and a couple of worthless belts, so even around a full moon you may not necessarily get good drops, and I believe both nins subbed thf too. We were unlucky with our drops today, but last week I went on the same setup run, and on my drop I ended up getting utsmetsu: Ni.
 
Yeah Chrono Fantasy... I've been wondering. It seems like they've added a bunch of other drops to sort of pad the drops.

Before (couple months back) I used to get a LOT of ni's and erases. Now it seems like there's a larger pool for the Armoury Crate to pull from. Could just be my imagination though.
