Not sure about your ranger but You can solo it on DNC (which I saw you have) with a eva setup =)
NIN and DNC with an EVA setup could easily solo it, but no I haven't tried it. I tanked it fairly well BLU/NIN with SMN friend there at 75, but I was steadily losing my footing around 20%, if a THF hadnt offered TH I would have died.
Shiki is really a pain, because the ToD is so hard to get, and it moves so much if it's not killed. If you have DNC though, basically anything would work with it, WHM, NIN, THF, BLU, RDM, basically anything that can cast as well.
Anyways- PLD/RDM might be able to do it, but he hits hard.
As for RNG, it's completely possible, but youd need to bring a lot of them. If it does in fact resist though, then it could get tricky, so Id stack on the Ranged Attack in places where accuracy was so you dont risk it. Ill end my wall of text to say that, Shiki weapon, Biast, Father Frost, and many of the old school NMs are sleepable. Biast and FF do NOT resist sleep, so I assume Shiki wouldnt either.
Wow I talk alot x.x
Edit: Happy hunting! Though if you have SMN, you should be able to solo it. Despite idiotic testimonials from wiki, it and other weapons Link in NO way, you just need to be careful not to aggro adds.
