Could not solo this as an 81 BST/DNC with 5 trusts. Damage output from Cetus was simply too high to handle. Could be doable with a proper setup at this level, but I would recommend getting to 90 first to make things easier. DizzyBum (talk) 15:18, July 6, 2016 (UTC)
Solo with trusts as an 86THF/WAR. I failed the first time, but switched trusts with 2 WHM and some ranged, and was successful. The MP drain is killer and I almost failed. Apururu is probably a very solid choice because he recovers his own MP but I'm with Sylvie at the moment. (Trion, Semih, Mihli, Kupipi, Ullegore is what I used)

- Appears to have around 25,000 HP.

- Not a hard fight; soloable by DNC99/THF49 with 5 trusts with no preparation.
- Level 99/ilvl is not necessary to defeat this boss. At level 90 WAR/DNC with trusts I was able to take it down using Apururu for healing, Trion for tanking, and DDs. Using Apururu was probably key as she ran completely out of MP several times from curing and had to use Nott to restore it. I wiped at level 80 soloing with trusts, but got far enough that I suspect 6 or 12 well-geared/skilled level 80 players would have a fun challenge trying to win.
- Watch out for a potent Drain spike effect; was not paying attention and died first time.
- Appears to have around 25,000 HP.
