Notes
- The BCNM has been solo'd by a Mnk/War, Pld/War, or Drg/Whm with meds and skill.
- Can also be solo'd by a Thf/Nin with capped Marksmanship, Sleep Bolts, Bloody Bolts, and a few meds.
- The Windurst version of the dragon seems to be a little bit easier because it does not use the Petrify AoE. Doing the Bastok leg first also seems to be faster.
