Few questions for Dynamis-Bubu.

I think Vyzrael did, can't remember. We also got the BLM belt which, surprisingly for a linkshell full of blms! nobody really wanted lol.

PS Once we were clearly gonna win I dove in (as our token melee) with hundred fists and got owned by spikes in about half a second. Whoops.

Use Hundred Fists on SE Apollyon's Tieholtsodi.

Made that mistake once too x.x with counterstance up no less.

Me too! Second time around I just point blank refused to fight him and let the two Thieves handle it with Perfect Dodge.

He's really not bad if you kit out in major evasion. I've fought him a few times in a trio of mnk/nin nin/war (using daggers) rdm/whm.

He's easy as hell to kite around the bone structure, so what we did was whoever had hate runs away, the other person follows and DDs. RDM keeps gravity up. When I had hate ninja would spam for hate since I dealt better damage. Oh, also, he didn't seem to counter me much during the later runs, possibly because I fought him in all-out evasion gear to reduce his counter rate.

He's also easily sleepable, btw.

My ls did this last night and this thread helped a lot. Won with 36, but the boss didn't drop shit for us. Still, the coins from mobs wasn't THAT bad (not like how qufim was when we tried it the day after the update). We got approx 1 to 2 coins per mob.

Also, drk af2 hands -1 dropped (and rotted) along with blm belt.

[Alpsyche-Ifrit]

I'm with Tilo. Great information here + some extras in various places.

My question is greed related now.
Which Mobs have you found drop best for loot / coins post AB kill?

Both our drops came from the Crabs.
The Gobs were fun to kill in the middle.
The Dhalmel have the AoE Healing Breeze so they suck.
The Cocks are just completely politically incorrect, but easy to kill.
The Efts have that AoE stun and Dispel. Easy, just annoying and out of the way.
We killed the BLM NM. (Orc ftw!)
We skipped the Mandys - MNK mobs + sleepga... no thanks.

We didn't try to kill the bunnies
We didn't find the birds til the end
We didn't find the Crawlers.
We didn't get to kill any extra Yagudo's.

As far as which mobs drop the most/best, i havn't faught them all but after farming nightmare mobs after two wins, i havn't farmed much but this is what I've seen. Crabs right off the beach seemed to be the best seeing as we got DRG belt, and two pairs of melee gloves -1 off the few crabs we pulled which was surprising. The only mobs i beleive my ls hasn't attempted where the gobs and the scorps, mostly everything else seemed to drop the little to no items, or coins at all. Crawlers are pretty easy, lots of them appear when the orignal one that can be seen is pulled, but they sleep easy enough. But there droprate was horrid...i think like 12-15 crawlers and like 3 coins. Birds seem pretty easy, rng with loxely was able to pull pretty quick w/o to many links. Drop rate was ok, actually got a scouts belt off one of them. And the cocks...that was just insane...oh and the mandies dropped a pair of assasin armlets -1.

We didn't find the Crawlers.

Crawlers are in the NE but not down at the beach (Uraganites down there).

[Kemberly]

right after the boss died and we started farming off the crabs, we got drg af2 feet off them and never did i see less than 2-3 coins drop off each mob in hole zone. with 28ppl we all racked up a good amount of coins and the war stone droped off the dhamels for us. birds nothing but coins. crawlers nothing but coins and mega train of mandys i didnt have time to mpk ls before we were kicked out XD

From our run:

Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 8 x a one byne bill
Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 6 x a Tukuku whiteshell
Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 1 x a warrior's stone
Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 1 x a pair of scout's bracers -1
Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 1 x a pair of abyss gauntlets -1
Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 7 x an Ordelle bronzepiece
Nightmare Dhalmel (26) -- 1 x a pair of monster gloves -1

Nightmare Cockatrice (13) -- 5 x a one byne bill
Nightmare Cockatrice (13) -- 3 x a Tukuku whiteshell
Nightmare Cockatrice (13) -- 1 x a sorcerer's belt
Nightmare Cockatrice (13) -- 6 x an Ordelle bronzepiece

Te'Zha Ironclad (1) -- 1 x a pair of valor gauntlets

Kill count is the number in parantheses. Kill count is a bit low for Cockatrice, mainly because I was scouting while the main group was killing, so I missed a lot of death messages.

Note the PLD AF2 came off the PLD NM. Theory is their drop style is similar to DynXarc nms.

We got something to the tune of 3 RNG belts from the nightmare birds in Buburimu, and 1 DRG belt from the nightmare crabs.
