NM Spawn Locations Conditions and Drops Discussion

It has ~11k, and I was only getting ~800ish IV's(no merits or great gear).

You should be fine as long as you pay attention to your surroundings until you're in safe territory.

Safe territory being where from where the NM spawns? You took it elsewhere then kill?

[*Blaize*]

Where do you guys camp in Oztroja S for the Gnat Pellets? Going as BLMx2 so sleeping everything and killing all adds it's not a feasible (sp?) option, would probably get overwhelmed

Yes. Once you drag it away from the Waraxe Beak/Gnat Pit area, you have Raptors to deal with... so gotta keep going NW, then you'll be in Scolopendrid country, keep going. Once you're at the Fort Karugo-Narugo zone, there is a large mountain thing right there that you can run around indefinitely. Although Bloodlapper runs slightly faster than a player without grav on, using this rock, even if something goes horribly wrong, it will never catch up to you.

As for our camp, go upstairs, go behind the 4 lever door. Keep going until you reach the Yagudo Parasite pond. The little hallway right there on the other side of that room is safe. You can easily pull the Yojimbo and NIN mob.. then it's a matter of Frogger to pull the SMN one. Our method of killing them was a timed nuke, sleep, timed nuke, etc. plan, and had little problems(aside from random Utsusemi:Ni casts from the NIN when stun was down).

1/4 on Moli Scythe with TH 1 only.

1/3 on Moli Ring with no TH.

Easy duo either rdmx2 or rdm and blm they sleep like babies.

Also they seem to be lottery 1hour from PH death. Been there pretty much solid from yesterday. Ring PH is 100% Adaman that walks North of tower.

thanks for info on camp, would you mind saying which pos is the rock? looked all 3 Fort zones, either it's too big or there's none D:

[THEPANDA]

There's one at F-8, but a goblin patrols the little path between the rock and the rest of the range.

The other is at D-8. And yes, they're supposed to be large as you can run around in a continuous circle, he'll never catch up to you even without grav due to his pathing/ability/casting. Hell, you'll have to wait on him most of the time.

Thanks a lot, this is for you

Spawned Ba'Tho after killing one PH, 0/1 on scythe. Mobs are tough-VT there and give decent xp as blm+blm. Nm is kill able as blm + blm but u gotta watch for adds. Killed it no drop. Then spawned Ea'Tho this morning. Jp's got claim and drop, cuz the campaign mobs made it too hard for me to claim. Back to camping Ba'Tho again.

Btw if anyone has any info on how much enhances acc and souleater are could they post/link to the info please. Tempted to try it then just sell.

[Juront]

Just killed Scitalis. Easily Trio'able. no drop though ><

[Ruin]

Just killed two Bloodlappers with 7 people (2 WAR/NINs, SCH, RDM, WHM, BLM, DNC), bit of a overkill on it as it was pretty easy, attacks extremely fast and hits pretty hard (350ish on War). His def is pretty low, on our first try both WARs did 2-hour and it took it down to 30% before MS even wore. We are 1/2 on it, so drop rate doesn't seem too bad. I would have to say that the surrounding Gnats by it were more of a challenge than this NM was. :3

We got decent drop rates on pelts by the Yagudo by the gate leading into the higher levels of Oztroja. Got around 3 in 15 minutes of farming with no TH.

Think a nin and rdm could duo this? Or would need another healer, back up voke to pull it off?

[Sir Zero]

About Peiste Pellets (Poison Cape): got 1 in 3 days (~14 hours), wtf <.<
Of course NM did not drop

I'm simply killing almost every Quadav in the "coffer" area.
The only trigger I got was from Meteor Quadav (RDM).

Someone has more info about these stupid pellets (Quadavs can drop it, etc) or is simply getting more lucky than me? >_>

Just killed 10 armoured yags, and not 1 drop with no thf.

[BerenTebogo]

Just trio'd saurian helm NM NIN RDM BLU...wasn't fun...no drop, get to do it all again :\

Things kinda beast

[Maxxthepenguin]

0/1 on Molly's Scythe, took about 3-4h to pop (punctuated by a rather hilarious death of a RDM by using convert in very unlucky circumstances.)

Because I know you care.

[Miltani]

Rdm can solo bloodlapper. Just sleep nuke and repeat that's all.

[GavinBandura]

Can anyone provide some info on Ea'Tho Cruelheart? Position etc?

[Karbuncle]

Spawns near Campaign Battle area, (the giant tower with Fortifications).
Adaman are placeholders

[EternalSnow]

I just soloed dyinyinga.I soloed it as summoner 75. If you are a summoner I am sure you can solo it. Do not worry about silence or amnesia because even if it some how runs it to you because your carbuncle lost hate or whatever, once your avatar hits it your silence and amnesia automatically wear off. However keep blink and stoneskin up lol. I basically just kited it up and down the hill but I moved a little more from it because it moves kind of fast.

Just got both Moliones's Sickle and Ring (1/1 on each with TH3).

The set accuracy bonus is +5 (checked with gear swaps vs. high evasion Mamool Ja's Raptor), and the set souleater enhance is the same +2% bonus as other souleater enhancements (and doesn't stack, which is what I was hoping for).

Ea'Tho Cruelheart's <pos>, for those that don't know where the Campaign tower is, is on the lower level of F/G-9 border, the same basic camp as Da'Dha Hundredmask in the present day (only posting that because it hasn't been updated on the OP yet). Both Ea'Tho and Ba'Tho are absolutely lottery pops with 1 hour waiting times.

EDIT:
Corrected the final result for accuracy (my original findings were +4) thanks to Firefeng's research, didn't want to leave the incorrect value in the post in case someone is skimming the results.
