Strategy #1 - Solo Black Mage

• Primary Action: Lost Flare Star

• Secondary Action: Lost Burst 

• Essence: D. Essence / Essence of the Breathtaker.
  Secondary buff: Auto-Potion has a 20% chance of ending upon usage.

• Active Buff: Resistance Potion Kit.

This setup can be expensive or time-consuming as you will need to appraise multiple Forgotten Fragments of Care. The item you would like to obtain is the Resistance Potion Kit. 

1. Stay in Umbral Ice stance. The main purpose is to have constant MP regen. Renew your stance using Umbral Soul when needed. Friendly tip: do not greed the cast between Flarestar and Umbral Soul. Flarestar is a GCD with a longer CD timer.

2. Use Lost Flare Star or Scathe to aggro the mobs. 

3. Gather the mobs into a cluster, use Lost Burst to apply a debuff that increases damage taken on the mobs, and then use Lost Flare Star. 

4. Repeat using Lost Flare Star until all of them are dead. 

Save Swiftcast for Blizzard III when your Umbral Ice stance expires. 

Strategy #2 - Bloodsucker Tank + White Mage

• Tank's Essence: D. Essence / Essence of the Bloodsucker

• Tank's Primary Action: Lost Spellforge

• Tank's Secondary Action: Lost Paralysis III / Lost Bravery

• Healer's Essence: D. Essence / Essence of the Templar 

• Healer's Primary Action: Lost Seraph Strike

• Healer's Secondary Action: Lost Burst (because the faster you kill, the better your Tank survives)

Tank's setup is pretty straight forward. In most situations tanks, especially Warriors, can solo with a Deep Essence of the Bloodsucker. Lost Spellforge and Bravery increases the damage dealt which in return, leech damage for more HP recovery. Yes, the more the tank gathers up, the more HP they heal up too. 

Healers, if your Tank is competent to maintain HP very well most of the time, you can consider going as Profane. Hear me out why I suggest Templar, alright? In the first place, I suggested White Mage and not Healer role is primarily because of Afflatus Misery. Yes, that hard hitting ability is what you'll be relying on. So charge up your Blood Lily! 

1. Build up your Blood Lily.

2. Regen your Tank to be in combat all the time to build up charges. Just use up your Afflatus heals whenever.

3. Once Tank gathers all the mobs, use Lost Seraph Strike.

4. Immediately, use Lost Burst.

5. Cast Afflatus Misery and Assize at the same time.

6. Watch everything disappear. 

Profane can do a good job but if you mess up the timing, you might have some still alive and hitting you. Healers build so much aggro by using this combination that Tanks can struggle to take it off you. With the changes on 6.0 Nascent Flash, maybe you'll survive better but who knows. Thus using Templar is safer since there are defensive buff to it. 

Strategy #3 - Black Mage + Healer

Similar to how Solo Black Mage work, this combination will have the BLM to be using Skirmisher instead. 

• BLM's Essence: D. Essence / Essence of the Skirmisher

• BLM's Primary Action: Lost Flare Star

• Healer's Essence: D. Essence / Essence of the Templar

• Healer's Primary Action: Lost Seraph Strike

Unlike the tank's strategy where they can pull mobs into one location, use their CD and kill them. BLM is consistently on the move. So with this strategy, the healer needs to be mobile too.
