    Can also do the tier 4 nuking route going up the closest hill(dunno how to explain it) It comes before you reach the eye wall or w/e. The eye will not link with a perfect tier 4 nuke. Usually 3-4 BLMs take out an eye and then they are easily pulled. Sorry this one sounds so vague I get easily confused on using markers in xarc. Maybe someone else can elaborate on what i'm trying to explain

    Actually, I know exactly what you mean. I've read the strategy for taking out eyes without agro, so you take out a couple of eyes, thus creating a gap in the link. Then you can pull half and half without the giant mess.

    I think the first Hydra TE is relatively worth it even though it doesn't cover the amount of time needed to get it.

    Honestly in recent runs I've found one of the best farming methods is to kill all the mobs surrounding the Goblin, Quadav & Yagudo Dynamis Effigy, and then the Effigy itself.

    I skip the Orc Effigy because charmga is really a bitch and fighting around 7 Orc NM's just seems like a recipe for a waste of time even though it's certainly clearable.

    Another good timesaver method for glacier is to avoid the TE by the Lake near Batallia Downs. You can nuke the TE, which is the middle stone, from the ledge above (it is essentially directly below the last Quadav TE) and it saves you the effort in walking all the way down to the lake and dealing with those few annoying Orc NM's, I really hate fighting Orc NM's as you can tell. Anyways, it's a good 15 minute TE and I'd rather spend the 15 minutes fighting easier mobs that are easily farmable.
