    Baobhan Sith?

    Well i've been thinking of trying to camp this NM and was wondering if anyone with experience killing it could help me out with a few questions.

    1. How many cheviot cloths can it drop? (I'm assuming 4 like Manes and Dame Blanche for now)
    2. After checking out some sites, i saw a few mention that 75 rdm can solo it, would you do the DoT / Kite method like amikri or melee it with enspells? Im assuming the first option seeing as how ghosts stop to cast a lot.
    3. Whats the best method to pull it? Theres about 20 T-VT skeletons and wyverns in the same room as the NM, and it pops at the very back of the room so it seems pretty rough to pull. Would bind -> sneak / invis > run to a safe spot work?
    4. Could a nin + whm duo it at all?

    Thanks in advance.

    same amount of cloth as other ghost NMs, although I have seen Dame Blanche drop 5 cloth, I haven't killed the others enough to know if they can also. You would Dot/Kite like Amikiri.

    I used to duo this with me as MNK and a WHM so i'm sure NIN and WHM would be fine.

    -The NM drops 1 cloth guaranteed, and can drop up to 2 (half the time). I never saw more then 2.
    -You cannot stun or silence it's -aga spells, and cannot dispel his spikes, so meleeing won't be very fun. Kiting and DoT/Nuke will be how a rdm kills it.
    -I had to be patient on pulling it. Wait for there to be a little running room, then claim it with Gravity. Then give yourself some distance from it (hope it starts off casting something) and sneak yourself. Keep running like you're going toward Bune area. Careful though, with Gravity on he loses hate very easily. Once you're in the bune area with him it's very easy.
    -Yeah, pretty sure a NIN and WHM can duo it.

    Used to kill this all the time. Then more people started catching onto it and the price of cloths went down alot. Pulling the regular ghosts in the area will give you enough practice for pulling the NM. You don't have to pull them all the way back to Bune area, but practice pulling them to the first ramp on your way back and there's a safe killing spot there.

    I dot'ed it for a little bit to a safe area and cs nuked it after a little while. Can't bind it, so dot'ing it to death may be a bit harder than necessary. May want to consider going /blm if you go with this approach.

    Can drop up to four cloths I believe, most I've gotten is three. Good luck.
