Obtained: BCNM 40

Black Mage:56 White Mage:52 Warrior:56 Thief:66

This was my first attempt at the A Worm's Turn BCNM(Burning Circle Notorious Monster). The monster in this BCNM was called Flayer Flanz. He is a major worm that has a bunch of underling Flesh Eater worms scattered all around him. From what I hear, he is usually not very difficult to kill with the right plan. This was my first time doing it though and would you believe it, I didn't have my Sleepga spell bought yet. I still did a good job of backing up the WHM with healing since it was very hard to Cure sometimes.

The NM likes to periodically warp someone right to the center of the mess of Flesh Eaters and if they are not all slept then they all physically attack you. This turned out to cause a lot of deaths in our group. We lost the first 3 times doing it and won it the 4th time I think. I was scheduled to go 5th but everyone had to leave and I was left with none. I was pretty tired myself though. We had 3 BLMs for this one and 2 RNG and a WHM. The first time we wiped and the next two times we ran out of time.

Nevertheless, I got some good knowledge on doing this particular one and I think I am going to run a BCNM 40 soon by myself.

The other two BLMs both had Sleepga and were doing one side and the other so with the overkill of Sleepga there, I can't figure out why we lost so much. Especially when the next group, mentioned in my next journal, did so well.
