Summary:
- Fir Bholgs, least the Humes, are easy for a BLM to solo. They're SAMs, easily gravitied, cannot be bound (I never got it to land), but can be slept. Since I'm hume those are the mobs I had to kill to pop the chests and vortex.
- The real problem here and a very consuming time eater is dealing with links. When they linked I was pretty much dead, but I learned a thing or two when trying to pull.
- I died twice doing this. I had to two-hour to save time.
- I opened the chest with 5 seconds left.
Edit:
The mobs in question are Fomors. They have slightly over 4k HP, similar to that of Ebony Puddings, but without the damage bonus. It takes a few good nukes to kill these. I went Thunder IV > Fire IV > Thunder IV > Fire IV > Thunder III to kill the first one, as fomors don't like ice spells. On the second one my two-hour was up, so I did Thunder IV > Burst II > Thundaga III > (two hour wore off here) Thunder IV and easily killed it.

As one can see here, I had a few mobs on me at the end but due to the time I had left I made it out alive. I had just opened the chest at that point. If I wasn't so low on time I would've ended up dead from the last
'link'.
Next time around if I can get the mobs down very fast I can give the second floor a try but due to links getting to the second floor is a "maybe". There's times like this that I'm glad I'm Hume - Tarutaru fomors (BLMs) here have very high magic defense, as well as the Mithra fomors (RDMs). As I still do limbus with a black mage team in Arisen, this is a thing I'm doing on the side for a sooner chance at getting AF+1.
