Need Immunobreak to sleep the Mamool Ja.

Mamool position and element they cast/absorb:
Blue (Water) Red (Fire) Blue (Earth)
Red (Wind) Blue (Ice) Red (Thunder)

They start in mage mode, they keep their distance, toss nukes and have access to Manafont.
Silencing them will make them counter with Hurl Anathema (slow, stun, mute, paralyze, plague, poison) and they switch to melee mode and have access to Mijin Gakure. Hurl Anathema can be absorbed by utsusemi. If Hurl Anathema missed, the Mamool will get huge enmity on the person Hurl Anathema was used on.
Defeating Mamool in mage mode will make all other Mamool's nuke stronger.
Defeating Mamool in melee mode will make all other Mamool's Mijin Gakure stronger?
Each Mamool will absorb SC that has element it absorb.
Each Mamool can only use SP once, if it uses Manafont then got silenced and change to melee mode, they won't be able to Mijin Gakure.

Ward Breach: remove shell + magic defends down, mage mode only, can be absorbed by utsusemi
Shield Shatter: remove protect + defends down, melee mode only, can be absorbed by utsusemi

From patch notes (May 2022):
In Very Difficult only, when a Sextuple Razool Ja is killed, other Sextuple Razool Jas under the effect of Sleep will awaken 33% of the time.

Feels like more than 33% ....

Plan:
RDM open with Sleepga, then PLD get hate on all enemies.
The DD pick a target, everyone /assist.
Pick the one that resist sleep / wakes up first.
Everyone use Savage Blade so there won't be any accidental SC that heals the enemy.
WHM Barspell the appropriate element for each Mamool Ja.
When 2 Mamool Ja are left, PLD use Rampart Sentinel
because nukes are a lot harder at that time.
When 1 Mamool Ja are left, RDM Silence it.
