ZNM tier III troll

[Ratatapa]

Simple Title, simple question

Where's the best place to pull this Mob?

Wiki says Ebony pudding camp, but is there a better place?

[Thorny]

Any zoneline works fine, just train the shit otw and have someone in ally waiting to claim it as you zone your train.

Nearest zone is #8 on the map, far NW corner by the Puddings so likely the one Wiki is referring to.

Edit: NVM, it's wamouras there. Just did it a week ago, you'd think I'd remember that...

[Callisto]

We typically take it to the zone by the Wamouras, I can't remember the exact direction from the pop spot but it's through a tunnel. I don't know if it's really the best/safest spot, we just do it since we're used to doing the troll brothers that pop during Besieged there.

Hope you can understand what I mean but we pulled it from the ??? across the platform, down the ramps and under the bridge made by the platform the ??? is on then uh stick to your left when you go undeground and keep to the left til you find a zone.

[Callisto]

Yeah, that's the same spot I was speaking of, lol.

Ive found if you tank this at about 10' it will spend alot of time casting and you can tank very little damage throughout the fight. Just move to 10' when you get hate if you are a melee, and plds or nins tank it like a ranger mob. Pretty easy fight that way.

[Starr]

Fight it at the zone and all zone every time he calls pets, it's a joke lol.

[Callisto]

We generally just have me on RDM/NIN using Diaga > zone to clear pets, works fine and no need to have the whole group zone.

[Starr]

Depends how many ppl u use I guess, I reckon this could be killed by like 2-3 melee when zoning lol

He casts so much, and has such poor accuracy, that on NIN/DRK I end up pretty much never casting Utsusemi at point blank save when I see him doing the rally cry animation to call his buddies.

We fight it where it pops. It dies fast with heavy melee. Just clear the mobs there beforehand and have 2 rdm/nin or pld/nin outside ally to pull the summons and kite them in that area until they depop. The adds at 40% are the worst so melee need to use tp at that point if possible to get them to desummon quicker. Overall a very fast fight and it dies before the trolls in the area repop.
