Well, I finally got these today... 20 Minutes ago... I say finally like I've lived my life for them. Not true, but I have felt naked without them.

Anyway, as far as all the horror stories concerning this guy goes, I think I have to put them to rest in my mind. So far I'm 1/1 on this guy. And let me tell you, he was cake.

Pt Setup
(Me-Ayanne)60Rdm/26Nin --Utsusemi on an underleveled subjob for the win!
(Aion) 75Nin/37War --Master of fighting weakened
(Darkpower) 74Rdm/37Nin --Hey, who says one tank is enough?
(Raulg) 70Smn/35Whm --Fantastic job, led the party pretty much. Melee'd and got the final blow. "Raulg defeats Crimson-toothed Pawberry."
(Uis) 74Blm/37Whm --He stayed with me lol
(Redeyedgiant) 58Drk/29Nin --Same plan as me, utsusemi ftw

Ok, so... THE FIGHT!!!

We cleared room first. Great idea for those of you yet to do it. We set aside groups. Nin, 74Rdm, Drk, and Smn were to take the NM headon. The Blm and myself were to stay way far away and be supporters/watch for pops. If a pop happened, the 74Rdm was supposed to come help us with it, then go back.

What actually happened...
After clearing, all of the party went to the far staircase and stood in the doorway. We buffed with prot/shell/earthenward/aerial armor(for those without utsusemi) refresh, so on...

I ran over and traded the offering......... BAM! Searing light from the get go, im at 200 hp and running to the pt. Nin is slightly slow but vokes it off. Smn does his thing, melee +70 pacts.Nin tanked. Rdm was pure melee and cured members as Crimson 2hr'ed. Drk did dark knight stuff(smash!) Which left me and the blm... We were supposed to catch pops and support. We supported great. Not a single pop however lol. We had it quit easy actually. No one ever hit red hp except when searing light went off. Scared me at first, but fine after that. No pops, no death, no worries. Crimson was dead in about 3 minutes... (4 Searing Lights so I can only guess.)

Anyway, I want to thank all those that helped me so much! Clarkeyboy showed me where to get offering and I ended up solo'ing that. /death The mitts are awesome. lol Just wish I coulda pulled a 2fer and got the light spirit... But oh well. ^^ Much luck to all who try this.
Solo difficult but possible.

I solo Pawberry as 75RDM/37NIN. Took me 2 tries, 1st one i died @33% when an Iron Maiden came up the stairs and i didnt think to kite Pawberry to a better spot. 2nd time i won got 52xp, mitts, ton coat, 18000gil.

The one i fought was clearly not 75 or i'd have gotten 100xp (or died actually heh). It was a very close fight, it ended with me at 420hp/6mp and the Iron Maiden just out of magic agro range. My log didnt cover the whole fight at the end but i counted 14 Searing Lights so he probably did like 16.

I waited for nearly 90 mins for the Maidens to be as far away as possible then fought him in the hall right outside the pop area. Started the fight in full mp gear which gave me about 800mp. Switched to melee gear as i lost mp then back for convert. I ate a wild steak, melee gear was 2 flame rings, Bushinomimi, Triumph ear, Galliard Trousers, Rutter Sabatons, Genbu's Shield, Joyeuse, Warwolf Belt, Amemet+1, and I think it very unlikely I could have won this fight without my Duelist's Tabard. I'd guess if you have or can borrow a speed belt would be similar results.

Did this battle twice last night for me & the WHM in my LS. We decided to give it a shot w/ just 5 of us. Our pty setup was:

74 THF/NIN
73 PLD/WAR
66 PLD/WAR
67 WHM/BLM <-- wanted mitts
67 RDM/BLM <-- wanted mitts (me)

I will say that getting the offering was harder than fighting this guy, by far! The WHM & I duoed to help each other open doors, etc & look for the ??? After me dying once, we finally found it after back tracking, after it obviously had to repop from being checked previously (as it has a 2 hr repop time).

I come back 2 hrs later w/ the THF & 73 PLD, massacre ensues after our THF gets NM happy & engages the Bonze Marberry! >< I thought I was far enough away from the iron maiden so I threw a few cures on him. Next thing I know we've got the iron maiden, hover tank, and another tonberry on our butts. I escape (after THF & PLD are dead) just as the NM casts Flare O.O ~ I zone out dead ><

WHM logs back on, gives me a raise 2, the PLD & THF HP since they are in a not too friendly area to receive raises. We go back in, add our 66 PLD after the WHM tells us that he found the ??? in the 2nd hallway, with the last room on the right! So basically the THF & 73 PLD help us open doors & pull aggro back to the Den of Rancor zone. Then the 66 PLD opens the door for me, and I go in and get the ??? (^-^)b

We escape out & make our way back to the Den of Rancor entrance via Bloodlet Spring and head towards the NM area. When we got to the big room where the temple guardian is, we got lucky & the door was open, as a few people were there fighting mobs.

We go upstairs & attempt our trick on the prelate key door. You don't need a prelate key, since it's a pretty rare drop. You just have to stand to the side of the door & tab around until you can target a mob & cast a spell or shoot an arrow at them. Our 66 PLD did just that & cast flash on a tonberry. Unfortunately he brought a friend with him & we were waiting for the door to open. The important thing here is, you have to back away from the door a bit, or they'll just attack you through it & not open it.

As soon as they open it, rush inside & kill them quickly. We had to take on a pursuer & a maledictor (mage type), linked a Dismayer (SMN) about halfway through. It got kinda ugly, but we made it through no deaths. ^^ After that, we invised up and made our way up around the stairs to the room with the NM. There are pots & iron maidens along the way, so be sure to use invisible by the door or use powders if you're close to them to avoid any other lingering tonberries. Once we reached the NM room, we cleared out the 5 tonberries & our WHM traded the first offering.

I will say this for the Searing Light - all mages need to stoneskin & blink themselves. He does open with it, so whoever is trading the offering needs as much buff as possible. As soon as they hit that OK button on the trade, get the crap out of there! The tank should pull him to one side of the room away from the mages. It can be sort of difficult for mages b/c there are poles in the room that the NM & melees can be behind during the fight making casting difficult if you can't see your target.

SL seemed to be a random damage attack. It would damage 1-2 of our pty members on any attack. Sometimes it did 0 dmg to me, sometimes it did about 500. I don't think anyone ever lost more than about 500 dmg per attack. I think our 73 PLD went into the red after a "Throat Stab" attack, but it wasn't too bad to keep everyone healed. We did a Fragmentation SC: Swift Blade >> Shark Bite. I missed the MB b/c the tonberry was behind a pole. ><

He doesn't keep carbuncle out all the time either. After he does SL, he dismisses him. Then he has a spirit present the whole time (ours was water both times). When he brings Carby out, you know he's going to do a SL attack. He also used an ability that sucks away TP from it's target, so it's advisable for your melees to use their TP as soon as they get it to 100%.

Basically after we beat it the first time, we just waited 15 mins until the ??? spawned again and cleared the respawned tonberries out again. Mages do have to watch b/c during our 2nd fight, an iron maiden made it's way to top of the opposite stairs.

Mitts are 100% drop, we got them both times. No light spirit pact though. ; ; GL to anyone attempting this fight, it's a lot harder to get the offering & get to the NM than it is to actually fight him. /cheer ^^

Did this a while back with 7 guys, 2 pretty unusable. Hehe. Set-up was:
75 BLM, 73SMN, 68 PLD, 73 RDM, and 2 LV33 WHMs (me and a friend.) who wanted the mitts. xD
I went first and popped, died straight away then the other WHM raised whilst the group just bluntly nuked the thing, I and my friend died quite a few times then the BLM was left, he nuked it one last time, raised and I got mitts, I think the mitts are 100% drop.

Second battle went well, popped, raised, and nuked. OH. By the way, MAKE SURE YOU CLEAN OUT THE ROOM, we got major linkyness. But we pulled through with some 2hrs, then the PLD lotted on the mitts as a joke and he didn't get them. ~_~ Blarf, was a good day though. ^_^ Good luck to anyone trying him.
Also that Light Scroll! o.O

Quick update, we went last week to fight the NM and you CAN still get the door open by casting magic to aggro the Arcana on the other side. Took us about 5-10 minutes but it can be done, you do NOT need the prelate key.

Went and got a friend of mine the Mitts this morning. Our set up was:

RDM75/NIN18 <- Me (yes I now I should lvl my NIN)
WHM75/SMN <- friend who wanted Mitts
THF75/RNG (subbed RNG to goof off)
BRD75/WHM37

I tanked and omg sooo easy, THF would SA WS (yeah he would get hate) then TA on to me. kept SS and Ut. up the whole time. biggest issue were all the times I was cursed, I had basically 300 or less MP the whole fight due to curse.

Searing Light usually hit me for nothing. I slept Light Elemental while BRD slept Carby. FIght went really really well. Took a while to kill the NM but THFs don't really do huge dmg and niether do RDMs. I couldn't use Spirits Within either (usually can get a 500+ one off) cause NM insisted on taking my TP.

Easy Easy Easy fight. I don't know how much I can stress how easy it was.

GL to everyone who goes to fight this NM!
Easy

Just got done doing 6 runs of this.

Party was: THF71(me), PLD74, SMN75, SMN64, WHM75, RDM75, BRD67. The SMN64 had to leave after 2 fights. For the first two fights, we had the BRD bounce between the main party (everyone but me), and my party to keep Light Carol up for everyone. After that, we only had 6 members, so it didn't matter. Searing Light was extremely weak most of the time, although it did hit some high triple digits (700 or so) a couple times on the PLD, even though he had Light Carol up. Fenrir's Eclipse Bite was usually around 1300 damage. I was doing TA+Shark Bite at the start of the fight for 700-800 damage with 300% tp, and TA+Dancing Edge for 300-500 damage with 100-150% tp. Mug yielded 2700-3200 gil, and he usually dropped 4k gil/person at the end of the fight. The pact dropped from 2 of the 6 kills, better drop rate than I was expecting (of course, it didn't drop on my kill).

I'm not even sure that a BRD with Light Carol is that necessary. There was one fight where our BRD disconnected and we got hit with Searing Light when Light Carol was down, and it didn't do much over 400 damage to anyone.

P.S. People, quit begging to tag along on these runs. If you're going to pay a decent sum of money, that's one thing, but don't just beg to leech the mitts off someone else.
help plz

Just got my carby mitts. We had a PLD75 tanking at first but he had to go so we ended up having two of our 75SMNS tank both using fenrir. They kept hate well enough and werent killed by Astral Flow so if you dont have a PLD but have access to a couple 75SMNS with fenrir, that works too.

2 75SMNs killed this thing? I've been assured now that it isn't insanely hard. Thank you for filling me in on this.

I had the idea that it was insanely hard. I couldn't remember from when I got my mitts and now it's another ls member's turn for me to help him.
