Another BCNM Prep question

Right now I have 20BST/10BRD set up and will be going with a 20DRK/10WAR as backup for DD. I have 27+10 CHR at the moment (Till I can get a Garrison Tunica or a Monster Signa, then It would be 27+19.). Anyway, Should this group have much problem with BCNM 20 "Wings of Fury"?

Mainly wondering about my abblitiy to stick charm with that CHR or if I will still have problems with it. Also if anyone would have an idea of how long I'd be able to hold the charm on a Fury so it can beat on the Coco.

If my CHR is too low to hold it for a good amount of time, any other tricks that could be sigested like certian foods or other items I have not thought of would be nice. Plus I should note that money is kinda limited as well.

Main reason I'm trying with only two is because I want to try and keep the loot between people I really know... >.<;;

Anyway, any input on this BCNM or in the field of Beastmaster would be helpful. Thanks.

I'm not sure about your Charisma question, but I know generally for BCNM20s BSTx2 are needed or at least preferred. Hope that helps

I used to go cheap with Flint Caviar (+4CHR) on BCNM's where I needed to charm.

Tuna Sushi is a better (+5CHR) with good melee bonuses and not expensive.

Tavnazian Salad/Tacos are your best choice but are quite expensive.

2x BST... SMN that can 2hr... I've read and heard so many diffrent ways to do this one... Starting to make my head hurt... Well, I guess here pretty soon I can report if a group of a BST/BRD and a DRK/WAR can do it... Oy, this is too much trouble for Astral Rings... Why didn;t they just leave them in Otroja...

I can tell you my experience with that BCNM. I went as a whm with 2 bsts. One had monster signa, the other did not. Charm will last longer, and will be less likely to fail with monster signa: The one w/out the signa would fail once every battle, the one with signa would rarely fail. However, they both had to recharm at least once every fight. So, the more chr you have, the better off you'll be. Also... I think this will be VERY difficult with a bst/brd & drk/war. You still have that extra bat to deal with, and I don't think a drk can do it alone w/out major curing. If you're going to try it, I would suggest one of you subbing whm.. maybe the drk since he has natural mp. Good luck with it.
