Notes

• Buffs wear upon entering the BCNM. (Note: RR hairpin does not wear)
• Alter Egos are dismissed upon entering the BCNM, but can be summoned once it starts.
• Tzee Xicu the Manifest has a short range 'aura' effect that seems to give players in range a weight effect.
• The assistant elementals can cast Haste, Gravity, Aeroga II, Tornado II, Silence, Blink, etc.
• Uses Vorticose Sands after a short message in say, causing heavy AoE damage and Silence.
• Uses Kamaitachi, causing heavy AoE damage, knockback, and full dispel.
• Uses Dark Invocation.
• Elementals move at normal speed, but cast gravity often.
• Elementals cannot be supertanked while Tzee Xicu is pulled away.
• Extremely resistant to melee attacks.
• Tzee Xicu the Manifest can strip all players of their gear that are in range.

Strategy

• Spawned in the BCNM accessed by trading the 8 boxes dropped from the 8 NMs within Castle Oztroja (S) to the NPC in each nation who will take the boxes.
• When you get to the door at (H-7) on the top floor, the door will appear locked until the person who has traded all of the boxes clicks the door to enter the BC.
• Trivial challenge at item level 119 with alter egos.
• You don't need a full alliance, but BLM heavy are preferred to kill elementals.
• Tzee Xicu's aura makes kiting difficult. It can be erased and will stay off for a few seconds movement.
• NM uses Astral Flow, which causes the elementals to attack. If all elementals are defeated, this will have no effect.
• SCH for Bindga on elementals.
