Lebros Caverns: Excavation Duty

• x8 Volcanic Bomb (Bomb)
• x5 Qiqirn Ceramist (Qiqirn)
• x4 Qiqirn Volcanist (Qiqirn)
• x5 Brittle Rock

Strategy:
(per Naria)

Two ways to beat this: In either case, you want 1 or 2 blms. Other jobs don't matter, but bring as many "hits 2-x times" weapons as you can. Fast hitting weapons are best.

Normal Way:
Always invisible past the bombs. Everyone pound on the first wall. BLM DoT it, pile on 5 dots.

After that wall, kill all the mouse-dudes that you see. Sometimes, after one dies, a random member of your party will get a "mine" special item. That person should go directly to the next wall (N center one before the E walls). Engage the wall, and use the mine item. You must remain engaged with the wall till the mine goes off. The mine will instantly destroy the wall.

Repeat, killing mice-dudes, until you mine all the walls.

Other Way:
Zerg all the walls! Never fight any enemies. This method requires 2 blms and 3 others (quick attacking jobs are best, Corsair/nin with Joyuse was nice, we had sam and nin too when we did it).

After first wall, one blm goes to N center wall and solo's it. DoTs pwn these walls so pile them on and toss some Thunder 1 and Blizzard 1, or melee it with kirin's pole.
Everyone else heads to east walls and zergs them +DoT just like first wall. The solo blm joins them when done with their wall. When the last wall is at 60% send a runner back to the start (F-10) to be ready for the rune.
