Camped this area for about 5 hours last night, as far as I can tell the Baloons seem to be place holders with about a 10 minute spawn time. When I first got there Bomb King was waiting killed him, he respawned about 15 minutes later after I killed everything in the area to be sure. No drop either time. For the next 4 and a half hours nothing but doppelgangers.

Bomb King 0/2
Doppelganger Goh 0/3
Doppelganger Dio 1/3

I wouldn't camp this spawn on watersday, didn't have a single spawn for a whole hour.
the King and I

Well, I was sitting in the ruins, bored... and decided to switch things up and kill some NMs instead of them kill me. I took my 38SMN/19WHM to hunt down the missing Ring :D Got there, place was empty for the most part. I was having fun with the Cardians until I ran into Gog... He was so nice... He was like: 'Oh! It's Zeargi! I'll give him my awesome spear because he's a legend before his time.' But sadly I couldn't find the King or his brother.

Hmm I pop donw in there when I am bored.. as its hardly camped. Anyway today after an unsuccessful Hoo mjuu camp after the Update I went here.

Bomb King was in one of the rooms wiating for me. 10 minutes later I kill him again... then about 20 minute later I kill him again!

3 lots of Bomb ash and no dopple gangers.

still was amusing to get him 3 times.

As a lvl 24 warrior, i think you'd have some trouble with the King. However, against the shadows you'd be wasted ><

dimensional death = {incredibly tough}

was waiting for RSE week, thought i'd /check out the ruins for a little while. Get there and Dio was already waitin' for me, forgot his scythe at home though. then, 8 minutes later his brother gog drops in. kill him, but he wouldn't give me his spear. another 8 minutes and BAM! bomb king was floating around struttin' his stuff. kill him... no drop. -.-

after 8 more minutes, ANOTHER DOPPLEGANGER DIO! could hardly believe that 4 NM's spawned n a row. i felt like i was camping BALLOONS cause all i was gettin' were the NM's! oh well, i'm not complaining. killed dio and he finally gave me his scythe.

these are by far my favorite NM's! even though the drops aren't worth much, they're fun to camp and there's virtually no competition. plus, the 8 minutes between spawns is just enough time to run out and kill a few crawlers and steal a few saruta cottons.
oops

Ran into him by accident the other day, i was just wondering around trying to get some silk to sell with my 33 thf, and decided to check and see if any NMs were there in the ruins atm.So i go down there and check his room and he was just sitting there so i attk him, easily get him to almost no hp, and he blows up, and i get a bomb ash and a bomb arm woot thx alot TH.I get better drops w/o it all the time. I know i need to lvl thf to 45 but err damn i hate the citadel......
No Spawn

I'm Anonymous in Remora World. Today, my brother, best friend, and myself all decided to try camping the shadow brothers here and the bomb king. We have been the only people down here for hours runnning and training the cardians waiting for either of the 3 to spawn....only a bomb, and the "three series" cardians spawn in the rooms. We are positive noone else has been down here sine we've been here. We have come to the conclusion the updates have either moved them, or removed them.

Actually, I think they just went on vacation. I was there earlier today, saw both the dopplegangers, but no bomb king. Then I went back a little while later, and was killing balloons for hours without anything alse popping. I must have killed about 25 balloons.

well when i do this NM or NMs i stand at entrance and spam widescan so i can see end to end either doppelganger Dio or Doppelganger Gog, Balloon, or the Bomb King will spawn every 10 mins, be sure to kill what ever spwans because those r the place holders

Yeah... No... I went to the ruins after an unsuccessful spiny camp (My friend was wearing the cape when he killed it) and after 3 hours of ????s, I decided to go camp this king since the ring goes for 50k on Asura. I was still 22SMN/2RNG from the spiny camp, but since it said it was level 16-18 I just went anyways. Saw it, sent Ramuh to it, his attack took about 3% of its HP, and since I'm an Elvaan SMN, Ramuh couldn't feed off of my MP. Eventually I used the avatar battle strategy and got it down to 3% HP, but eventually it killed carby faster and began beating down on me for 35 dmg each hit... whacked it with my staff and dropped dead. Sorry about the long post, but please reconsider your level range ;_;
Camping
# Jan 20 2005 at 9:12 PM Rating: Decent
Im camping him right now. Im new to camping NMs so I decided to start off on the little ones. (This is my first day camping NMs.) I'm a BLM40/WHM20 but for camping NM's Im BLM40/THF15
When I arrive here I go check a spawn point. BAM! hes there I killem but no drop. I get a baloon for next spawn then after that he pops again and I get drop. He spawns again but no drop. Then gog spawns 2 times in a row and no drop. Right now 2 place-holders have popped so in about 4 mins hopefully another NM will pop. Cya
spawn time

I know it's lottery spawn but still...one can't help but wonder why i saw (i know this is the wrong monster's thread...kinda) Doppleganger Dio 6 times in a row here while camping king and no Gog or king...then a balloon (place holder) then Dio for a few more hours...none of the others spawned >_< and evil shadow didn't drop anything...that day brought me up to like 0/15 on Dio <_<

Areku,
That's happened to me as well. I was down there camping all 3 of them as a 42Rdm/Rng for widescan. 2 balloons spawned, then bomb king two times in a row, then i got a balloon, followed by Dio, then Gog. Then it was about 30 balloons till the king spawned again. I've also had nights where it seems like I've gone through 100 balloons with no NM spawn.
