Fighting it on the tail should be the way to go then.

[Churchill]

He's hit me for over 1100 non-crit, normally that may be the case but without knowing how much harder the tail hits that may be fairly dangerous to risk if Fana goes down.

[Tachi]

I don't think so, the Knockback is huge and one hit from the tail does more than 1k damage without Fanatic.

Euhedral Swat (the flail type move) is a physical AoE with atk and def down (-25% each). You can fight it on the test server now btw.

Are we certain that body abjurations can drop directly off Provenance Watcher or are they only crate-loaded? The JP Wiki currently shows Meteor and Arise as the direct drops, body abjurations as crate-loaded, and the other weapons/gear from either the crate or direct drop. Can anyone confirm having seen any of the body abjurations drop directly off Watcher?

I've never seen an Abj drop directly in the 10 or so kills I've been a part of. Small sample though.

[Renzy]

Haven't seen an abjuration drop either, in around 10 kills also

[Slycer]

I haven't seen one drop either, though I've only been part of a couple kills. That being said, even in those couple kills, several people had gotten abjurations out of the troves. Not that that means anything, but combined with the listing on JP wiki which I'm sure is based on at least a couple other people's experience as well, I think it's fair to assume that it's correct for now. Modified BG Wiki to reflect, but we can change back if anyone can comment that they have definitely seen a body abjuration as a direct drop.

[Dazusu]

In 9 kills, never seen an Abjuration in the main pool. Only meteor, staff and sword so far. Pretty sure they are from the troves only.

[Taint]

What have people seen drop directly off the mob?

Meteor, Arise, Sword and Staff?

Anyone seen any of the other drops?

[Byrthnoth]

We got Shield and Saio directly off him. I have never seen a body abjuration directly off him, but only ~6 kills.

[Kujah2010]

My ls has seen Sword/Shield/Staff/Drachenhorn/Meteor all direct from dragon, have an SS of Drachenhorn if anyone wants to see. Has anyone ever seen more than 2 items drop at once into pool? Speculating up to 2 drop slots 1 gear 1 scroll? Have never seen a double gear drop nor a single scroll drop.

[Slycer]

Based on those replies I think it's fair to say that the abjurations are only trove-loaded. They aren't super uncommon in the troves so I find it hard to believe that we wouldn't have seen one abjuration out of about 50 combined loot pools from the above few posts.

[Churchill]

Body abj can drop off dragon.

Just had a strange experience at Prov Watcher tonight - Upon claim a few seconds in DRK BLM 5 was called. Around 50% Axe 5 was called, then after the Aura message Earth BLM 5 was called, and eventually hit. Have screenshots of all 3 messages, around a 3 minute fight too, has anyone ever seen procs reset more than once? As far as i saw was only 1 aura message in log.

[Radec]

Edit: Didn't read fully, was there 2 aura changed messages and you somehow missed the first?

Alternatively abyssea mobs would load up messages incorrectly for the first few seconds occasionally, possibly just that, especially since doesn't sound like drk blm was hit ever.

[Kujah2010]

Poured through my entire log and 100% only 1 Aura message, the first read was confimed by several people too, and were all discovered after claim around 90% i'm still perplexed by this.

[dasva]

By screenshots of all 3 messages do you mean the actually game message or people calling them out?

[Kujah2010]

Pictures of people getting the readings in their logs

[Renzy]

Something else strange related to Provenance Watcher, has anyone had a fetter pop after a spell is successfully stunned?
I went through my log to double check, saw that I stunned it and his casting was interrupted but a fetter still popped on us

[Alkimi]

I had that on the last one we did. It used stun as maybe it's 2nd spell (didn't stun it obviously) but it didn't pop a fetter.

Thought oh well, but maybe 40-60 secs later a thunder element fetter just randomly spawned despite me stunning everything else.
