0/7 on this guy and it's been two days.... Dodo took me a while too, 1/4, but jesus, what the hell is up with this guy's droprate? XD

::update:: 1/8 on Nue, finally dropped. Just when I decided I'd give up, it popped right in front of me and dropped Nue Fang :)

Check this out.

I've been trying to get this brown belt for my cousin Odonis on Ifrit server ever since I killed the Lumbering Lumber when he spawned infront of my and nearly killed my WHM. Yesterday (6/16/05) I wake up and start doing this quest. I'm just a WHM44 so I needed to enlist some aide for the fights, thank you Leoaga and Xdragonknightx. And on Deadly Dodo my help had DC issues and I died twice, but that wasn't enough to discourage me. I DC, log back on and D.D. was infront of my so I grab him and haul my taru **** to the camp, had to use Bene on the way back and spam /slap to my aide to get reinvited. One long draw out battle later, Dodo skin 1/1.

Things are looking well for this quest and all my help is logging off so I just Teleport-Vahzl and sit there, T-V is the WHM hangout apparently on Ifrit. While there I met a group of WHMs 58+ looking for Ahrimans lens. I help them because I'm bored and in return they show me how to get to Nue, Thank you Lambit and Urora. After a while of killing everything very slowly Nue finally pops, claim and weeeee a Blk. Tiger Fang.

Not that bad just one hikkup so I stay longer for Nue2, my help gets tired and we teleport out of there. Later I rally up help, Xdragonknightx and he brought Grimreaper. I asked Lambit to come back and escort us from T-V. The four of us get there and camp for a while and have officially renamed the mobs in (F-7) Tigers=Banana, Nue=BananaSplit, LivingStatue=TOY. It's about 4:45 AM and after 6 hours of NM camping we log and decide to come back in 10 hours. In the morning we grab Nue and a fang is dropped, So we decide to log and meet back up in two hours. Nue=0/2.

I log back on and none of my friends are back yet, so in desperation I /search to see what's in the area. Finally I find a MNK75/THF37 who's name I can't remeber and After some fun with the auto translator I get him to help and few hours later I'm Nue=0/3.

As I sit in that little room freezing my little Tarutaru **** off Grimreaper logs on and we sit there for a while killing, and I learn from watching the Japanese MNK kill, that the two TOYs are NOT placeholders, and Grim and I just kill outside trying to stay alive as I aggro gob trains. Nue pops and I had noted the time due to our schedule since log and it appeared to be roughly 3 hours after we logged off. My first estimate at Nue's spawnrate. Nue=0/4

After this frustration I start to scour my friends list as to recruit all the help I possibly could and Finally I get help from Fhqwhgags abd her 58+ BRD. Grim, Fhq and myself establish a nice killing spree and this time Nue spawns three hours after his last spawn, and he so graciously gives me a Blk. Tiger Fang. Nue spawnrate estimated at 3-4 hours. Nue=0/5

Instead of logging this time Grim was on his way to help someone get Kazham keys so Fhq and myself tagged along and played around in Fort Ghelsba. We split up and I decide to make a train to try and grba atleast one key dropper. After running around for about 20 minutes I reanimate what looks to be a LotR scene, About 100 orcs chaging my taru ***. I get lost and wonder around and that clusterfck gets even larger. I finally run into the party of key hunters and we slay orcs and the fellowship of the key slay the orcs and I Teleport-Dem to move onto the Quadav, the one who needed the key had no Dem so she got stranded, Grim parted ways to go save her. Fhq and the PLD remained behind as well. I was once again alone in (F-7) freezing my *** off. Xdragonknightx finally logs back on, after facing some severe technical difficulties and I grab my THF52 friend Motokyo We rally at T-V and trek back to (F-7) yet again with no map. The three of us struggle to kill gobs links and tigers in PAINFULLY slow battles. Finally out of nowhere this WHM50+ logs on and grabs Nue, I'm thinking it's a campbot or something and /slap spam it in aggrivation. The WHM starts to talk and does the strangest thing, asks for an invite to my party and lets my get the drop. 8D awesome WHM! Too bad Nue dropped yet another Blk. Tiger Fang. 0/6

With Nues Spawnrate now pinpointed to Exactly 3 hours (aslong as all the placeholders are kept dead with atleast one spot open at all times) I try and recruit some more help, but get bored so I nearly bloodported because a LivingStatue aggro'd to my Teleport-Dem but Xdragonknightx saved my *** and I recast T-D and we say goodbye to Motokyo and part our seperate ways. I give a Teleport-Dem to two people going to do the MNK AF(I think one) in Gusgen mines, I offer to help because I need a change of scenery and the MNK DCs and doesn't come back for an hour so the PLD73or74 helps he with Nue. Clayton and mytelv T-V and camp Nue find him, own him. And I'm really aggrivated now with a 0/7 record. Clayton and I were bored and a little curious so we decide to check out Pso'xya. It has nice music, and new mobs. With, dun da da dun, NO AGGRO to a level 44WHM atleast. I put sneak/invis/deo on because it was a new area but it was starting to ware off. I ran into what looked like an empty room to rebuff and a Nowball aggros me, Clayton kills is and nothing else aggros. So I find a new playground. Clayton leaves to do a BCNM60 or 70 and I went to PL Zzzzz in my LS. Three hour later I'm back in (F-7) and Clayton's held back because everyone in the BCNM party went to get food and other delays so they were just starting. I, again in desperation, /search to see if I can enlist any help. I find two characters Civil and Civily. Turns out to be the same person and he's Jappanese.
Me: "{Hello} {Help me out!} {Monk} {Belt} {Quest}?"
Civil: {What}
Civil: {I don't understand.} {Monk} {Belt} {Quest}
Me: {Quest} {Reward} = {Monk} {Belt}
Me: {Quest} = {Fight} {Notorious Monster} {Tiger}
Me: {Help me out!}?
Civil: {Where?}
Me: {F-7}

I don't remeber the rest of the convwersation, But I told him {Invite to join party.} {Who is the leader?} Keebs. He joins I give myself QM and he starts owning everything with his Shiva claws. Finally Nue pops. I run to is and Dia II. ALmost die XD but luckily I don't. I let him deadt he last blows so TH2 kicks in. Then Nue drops Three things. A hide, a black fang, AND A NUE FANG BABY!!!! 1/8 Nue

So after all that is done. I Cannot tell you if the placeholders are just tigers, but I can tell you they are NOT the Living statues. Spawntime is every three hours, if you keep the population down. I could predict his spawntime and he spawned on the ?:45 mark almost every time. Aside from a few that the help took a while, or we were killing slow. TH2 did't workt he first time, but it did work the second, after camping Nue for 30 hours I suggest you bring a THF45+ with you. With a level 55+ DD to make things fast. a BRD with Refreshga (I think it is called ballad) helps alot too. I would also like to note that Nue did not once spawn behind the tower, just infront of it and to the front sides. So if there is someone else camping Nue, like what happens with all NMs, you stick in the front and let him think he has the upperhand by camping in the back. Goodluck with Nue. And wish me luck with Morbolger.

    1/4... My friend said he dreamt that we would get it on the 4th claim. He was right. Just goes to prove that he's a prophet, or he plays the game too much.

    When I first logged in, there was a Paladin there, who got the claim, and then the drop, about 10 minutes after I logged in. So I got my Blm friend to come and help out.

    Had a much quicker time getting him to spawn today. I can confirm that the Statues (or one of them) are placeholders. I just didn't want to kill them before, because they take off health and I'm too lazy to heal. But when I was only killing the single tiger spawn, he took forever to spawn.

    Can't really confirm if anything else is a placeholder, but I never saw more than 2 tigers spawned at once, so I don't think so. Spawn time between each is 2 hours game time (handy if you're competing. Also helps if you use a sub with Widescan, or Thf for flee) Basically, just kill everything in the area, and he could spawn in as little as an hour, maybe a bit more.

    tonight i decided to camp this guy so i head to his stomping grounds and get ready for a long camping process to spawn him. I killed one tiger and went afk for like 20 minutes. When i came back nue was right freaking in front of me. i killed him NP but no drop ; ;. Im starting to think i might be jinxed when it somes to the brown belt. I logged in right in front of and attacked Dodo thinking he was a regular mob when i had half health and got killed. Morbolger pops right in front of me when im fighting a gob for RSE key. I think this belt hates me.

    Edit: Just got him again and got the drop. 1/2 with Thf subbed both times. He spawned in about 2 hours and 20 minutes of constant placeholder killing.

    Just wanted to express my grief with this thing, as I feel I've earned the right, lol... As of this post, I've been camping Nue since getting the Dodo Skin and that was about 16 hours ago. Yeah. I've been killing Nue for 16 hours. 0/8. Not one drop. This is the last item I need to complete the quest and get the belt for my MNK43, and it just WILL NOT DROP. I'm thinking the 0-10% Moon Phase is having something to do with it. -_-
    luck
    # May 09 2005 at 6:08 PM Rating: Decent
    lol i just wanted to check the spawn area so i killed one tiger and after he poped! Killed him and he droped the Fang. I'm usually unlucky lol

    please say yes.
    # May 06 2005 at 4:55 PM Rating: Decent
    Could a RDM50/THF25 solo this tiger? I just finished Purple Belt quest and am currently camping Deadly Dodo...

    I'm well equiped and a seasoned NM solo'er... well, i've camped/killed 60+ NMs, not sure that really makes me "seasoned" =P

    I'm convinced I could take him, but if he's too tough than he's too tough. Thanks for any advice in advance 0.~
    first drop
    # Apr 30 2005 at 1:20 AM Rating: Decent
    Thank you all for your helpful postings, I must have camped Nue for 3-4 hours, with no pop, then finally 1:30 am there he is, and I get the Nue Fang on my first try. The Dodo Skin I camped, and I got on the first try also, took me only a half hour. Monk60/Thief30, I believe my Four-Leaf Mandra bud is giving me some good luck. Now for the vine <:p>

    I got him last night on Garuda again, but finally got the drop.
    Took me 9 tries on Nue, and 9 tries on Dodo.
    But now the real challenge starts with Morbolger. Yuck.

    sorry, this is just hilarious time wasting...

    I must be at 0/20 now...with THF sub. I really think Nue dislikes me. There's one tiger spawn, with the second sharing a spawn with the doll on the right (if you're looking in the door). My advice is: kill 1st tiger, steal a beastcoin and kill the Goblin reaper, kill the 2nd tiger and the doll/both dolls, and wait. This way, you get a decent profit while hunting this tiger
    spawn time
    # Feb 22 2005 at 7:26 AM Rating: Excellent
    i have camped him tonight and average time on spawn has been 2 hours i use my two hour to time it one time it went a bit over to 3 hours and then the next spawn it was only 1 hour so good luck to any hunting him

    EDIT: It is safe to heal inside the entrance to Pso'Xja the living statues will not aggro

    EDIT2:I believe that he is higher level then listed because I gain 12 Experience Points from him as a 55 MNK which i dont think 13 levels below still would count as Easy Prey like listed as 41-42

    EDIT3: Got the drop 1/1 with THF subbed
    got drop once with friend and lost it 1/19 without THF subbed
