FFXI New NMs 11/9/09

[stewie]

Testing south ones now.

4 hours, no pop, events now.

[Talonn]

Is it me, or are all of these new NMs crazily over-powered?

They sure seem like it. I seen Belladonna almost kill a 75 MNK annd a 74 BLU before they got it to 50%.
These NMs sure are different then others SE has put out.

[Karbuncle]

I wouldn't say Crazily overpowered, some are easily soloable, i would say... incredibly powerful for what zone they spawn in and compared to their PH's >.<

[Talonn]

Anyone find that new COR gun yet?

the Macc/Matk one? yes its been found... of which NM i've forgotten, but it wasn't posted more than a page ago!

[tarumalphius]

I've been camping Lava/Kusha this entire weekend with a separate TH4 character and myself. I've gone combined about 0/25 on both NMs, and it starts to make you wonder...

Has everyone, who has gotten a Lava or Kusha ring, had sigil on when killing it? Probably has nothing to do with drop rate, but I've seen many people go at least 1/5 or something, but all screenshots posted show that they had sigil on.

0/25 on both? You must have a good bot or an empty server...not sure which. Sadly I have seen several people botting both so far...kinda sad.

Blightling Brand 1/1
Begin camping Eldrith Edge atm
1/4 Goaftrap
0/2 Goblintrap

all without any TH

フェンリルクラウン is infact Fenrir's Crown, Lizardtrap spawns in Aydeewa Subterrane, no idea where abouts, seeking for party right now but I'll edit the dats and head out there /RNG to find spawn area. In the dats this is what it's listed around:

Aydeewa Diremite
Aydeewa Diremite
Aydeewa Diremite
Aydeewa Diremite
Aydeewa Diremite
Puktrap
Puktrap
Lizardtrap
Puktrap
Qiqirn Enterpriser
Qiqirn Enterpriser
Phlebotomic Slug

PS: If you ever have trouble with item translations for gear, just put JP name in to FFXIAH, it will find the item.

Can you give me a .dat list of the mobs around Vasiliceratops in Grauberg? Trying to narrow down which ones to target...

Thanks I'd appericate that as well. Getting sick of frogs and being 0/8 on the damn smn belt and may try that instead :X

fenrir's crown needs to break 7 acc for it to be worth it, and even then it's meh, i'd rather use karura and predator claws. i'd rather camp morana's pigaches.

[Malacite]

Speaking of Headlong Belt, have you seen the horrendous price gouging on that thing? The sad thing is people are actually buying it as opposed to doing swift belt which is strictly better anyway X.x

Oh well, grats to the few people milking any poor sap stupid enough to buy it.

Jesus Christ some idiot paid 3 mil for one...


I'll take my chances with a Codex & the Mithra NM tyvm.

[Wolfknight]

that blu must have been gimp <_<, I killed it easily on blu barely taking any damage at all since big 3 make short work of it.

Wouldn't it be good for just having fenrir out meleeing though?
Cause I was under impression that skill only improved BP ACC, and not regular melee acc.

[Sholin]

For the life of me, I can't find where the hell the mobs are I renamed for Lizardtrap, so I'll hold off on uploading a dat for...

As for Vasiliceratops:

Knotty Treant
Knotty Treant
Chigoe
Chigoe
War Lizard
Wivre
Wandering Sapling
Wandering Sapling
Vasiliceratops
Wandering Sapling
Knotty Treant
Knotty Treant

I'll see about running out there if I can't find lizardtrap soon.

[Massimo]

You sir are a Tard.
If its so extremely easy, why did you die? How about you fight it a bit more and not die to a "super easy fight" at 50%.

I really shouldn't have to spell shit like this out. It's an easy fight when handled correctly, which, as I described in my post, we didn't quite have the setup to do. I died because I got Guillotine spammed while terrored, and was the only person wtih Stun. Mages were a bit slow on cures, so it ended up 2-shotting me with the HP down.

Doesn't change anything though, with a not-shitty setup, it's an easy fight. Go back to school.

[LilithAngel]

Killed Aynu-kaysey a while ago. Setup was pld/nin, sam/nin x2, mnk/nin, rdm/nin. Thing hits like a truck, even through Sentinel+boots, has En-drain, and spams TP moves. They slowed down once the mnk put Penance on it, but only a little.

Probably safe to say it's a timed spawn. All the qutrubs around it were up each time I went out to check. Dropped dark crystal and 150 xp to 5 75s. Ossum...

EDIT: Yup, it's a timed spawn. Sat and watched. 2 hours minimum.

[coder]

I found Lizardtrap just sitting up, I think it's safe to say it's a timed spawn since all of the puktraps that spawn in his room were up aswell.

I found him at (G-8 ) on the map you end up on when you enter from Thickets.

Ya, safe to say that BLU was gimp w. But still, it hits hard for its level i'd say

Same reason I'd take it if I didn't have a Swift already:

Good help is hard to find. Yes the Hume is stupidly easy but finding people for it is anything but easy.

Could you elaborate in which pos entrance specifically as I don't often go to that area ;;
