A little while back, I was stealing Mythril Beastcoins and getting Davoi keys to open chests of course, being that I was 0/3 on poisonhand on Gi I gave up camping it. I had a huge link of troopers,bowshooters,and Gladiators. Somehow I kill them all with about 300 hp and 1 mp lol. So I step back near the tree by poisonhand spawn area, and kneel w/ Dark staff for a few seconds I had just got 24 mp back when he spawned lol, I am like WTF O_O So i get up and flash him and everyone is like ur dead ur dead, I said oh well atleast Ill die trying. So he misses me alot at first, and I am laying into him when of course Hundred Fists goes off, and I counter it w/ Invincible and when it wears he is still throwing punches like crazy but missing me more than anything. Finally I get off a Vorpal Blade to put him down w/ nothing but some damn Sitabaki as usual.
And b4 i killed him tho there was a link w/ the Firebelcher and a Night Raider I think, of course no one helped to kill them when i killed poisonHand I had 126 hp left lol, so i said ***** it and Fleed lmao Train do you need it? oh well what to do? It was fun anyways just wanted to share. I hate that (******* sword).

GS are not to blame and poisonhand is easy

Ok i'm a level 58 war/nin and i could clear the area of orc with no problem. I don't undersand why you blame GS for the hike in its price i'm on garuda and i camped him for 6 hours with no GS in sight. All the people selling it for 800k are just regular players that i have been in parties with. Poisonhands hundred fist is easy to get around by just kiteing him around in a curcle. If your smart about it you can beat this guy at 50.

P.S. i fought this guy at 48% hp as a level 58 war/nin

Hey, I've camped this guy for about 4 days now and I think It's spawn area on that map is a little wrong I have seen him spawn around G-7 and H-7.. well anyways on Odin this thing is 750k and going up >.<...
This is also the first NM I have camped in a while.. The whole time I thought Odin was a GS free server.. the first day I get there standing right there.. 2 gil sellers(well my friends say they are).. So I thought that we could camp it even if there is only 2 GSs there. 7 hours of camping and we only get 1 claim.. oh great.. next day we get there(me and my rng friend) the gilsellers decide to mpk us. so their LS leader come as a 75 nin.. trains about 15ish orcs. and 2hours.. luckily a pld there voked one and 2hred and zoned em. we called a GM andwe can't even get them to do anything.. they ask if we have screenshots and then later.. no replyy.. great.. oh and why do I hate camping? GILSELLERS
Umm

Well, I just killed this guy two days ago on accident.

Me and my friend were farming and I hadn't rested in a while, so I went up the hill to rest. To my suprise he was just sitting there with a monk right next to him. Well, the monk didn't do anything so I just went ahead and provoked him. Fight took about 3 minutes as a 73 PLD, first time I ever killed him and got the Ji.

I camped him afterwards since I got 800k for the Ji in Seraph, got him again. Got the Satabiki, but I'd say he's around a 2-3 hour spawn.
hmm...

i hate questions like these for LOTTERY spawns.

Your NM is never going to pop if you don't kill placeholders. If you kill many Orc in the nearby area, you WILL get it to spawn soon.

I hate responses like this. Regardless of weather or not you have to kill placeholders there is still a window that the NM can spawn. There is a minimum and a maximum time that he can spawn if people are killing the placeholders. So when someone asks a question like this just answer with the longest and shortest time you have seen him spawn.
time it takes to pop?
# Jul 04 2005 at 10:26 PM Rating: Decent
anyone know howlong it takes to spawn after the last death?
thanks

K maybe someone can help me on this one. I am on remora Server probably the worst GS space u got... but i dont get a clue about this nms spawn time. I just waited 3 hours with a mate for this nm and it did not pop.... Other times he pops like every 1 hour as u wold expect. Of course we kill all Placeholders but there is just absolutely no pattern whatsoever to his Spawn rate. Anyone had same experiences or knows what his spawn rate is based on. I really need that gi and its hard to get even without all the GS around.
lucky

I jusy killed this guy i flashed a firebeltcher and pull him the the side to not get any aggro. just as i got there poisonhand poped behind thr firebeltcher so i quickly switched targets and claimed him just to see four other plp camping him run up to watch. so fought him the firebeltcher and a brawler the aggroed while they all watched hoping i would die. about half hp he 2HRed me so i just used invincable. all and all it as an easy fight with my 62 pld/nin but no drop :( maybe next time.

Ran into this mob after it forced a pt of 30's out of Davoi. lol I think it was links that actually did em in. I was there doing solo rank 5. Lvl 50 Thf/Nin. Decided to take a shot at him. Didn't know what he dropped. But figured with Th2 I would soon find out. Pretty easy fight. He knocked my blinks a few times. But with my eva gear (+37 eva) and bloody bolts it was not anyhting appraoching a close call. Only hitch was a Brawler aggro'd about 7/8ths the way through the fight. Bloody bolts pulled me through though. Jujitsu Gi. Asked my LS if it was worth anything. Made 600k. Inflation on Asura is nuts. But also got 21 xp lol. Gl to all. May your attempt be easier than mine.

this guy should be easy if your a 50rdm/blm. I almost soloed head hunter once as a 50rdm/24 blm (straight up died but i got him to 3% health) and the other as a 50 rdm/15 nin, i was owning him tell i was getting R0 and couldnt see what i was doing....then i got un lagged and right in front of me 2 quadav linked and im dead. So if your a good soloer possiably rdm,mnk/whm,drg/whm,blm/whm u can solo this guy at 50 or 51. A major tip, if your a blm,/blm sub or rdm sub u can sleep this guy when he two hours and laugh. I as myself havent seen this guy after beeing there twice at 3 hours and no spawn....he must be afraid of me >>
Totally Stoked!
# Apr 06 2005 at 4:07 AM Rating: Decent
oh yeah, it was awesome. beat a GS for it with my 60 war/nin friend to get the drop.. yes! i'm so ferakin stoked i didn't have to shell out money on this.. i'm 1/1 on the asura server now. i went as 44sam/15thf.. haha, yes! ^_^
2 hour
