General Information

Argus's Spawn Location
Argus's Spawn Location

    • Beginning eighteen hours after their ToD, sixty second windows with intervals of thirty minutes will open. If neither notorious monster spawns during a window, the next one will begin thirty minutes after the start of the previous window.

  • Immune to Sleep, though susceptible to Lullaby.

Argus Special Attacks

  • Black Magic - Capable of casting all Black Magic available to a level 38 Black Mage

    • For elemental magic, Argus tends to favor Fire based spells.

  • Hex Eye- Frontal cone AoE gaze Paralysis effect.

  • Death Ray - Single target Darkness based magic damage.

  • Catharsis - Self target HP recovery effect.

Historical Information

In Greek mythology, Argus was a one hundred eyed giant ordered to guard the nymph Io (in the guise of a white cow) by Hera from Zeus. In order to re-claim Io, Zeus sends the god Hermes to slay Argus. In order to bypass the giant's tendency to always keep at least one eye open, the messenger god posed as a shephard and recited boring stories to Argus until each eye fell asleep before killing him. In honor of his service, Hera emblazened Argus's eyes on the tail feathers of the peacock.

God I hate this NM

Wowzers, I have missed this thing by minutes and even seconds for the past few weeks. I'm thinking of giving up on this thing but I want a damn peacock charm so bad. I was watching my game last night, went afk for about 2 minutes to brush my teeth, came back and someone who was afk before beat me to it even though I tricked him into thinking it already popped lol. Oh well, wish me luck. I was also wondering if Argus can pop more than 3 times in a row? anyone know?

Yes, he can. My longest streak is 5 Argus in a row, and after that I missed the next pop so I don't know...
"did it spawn?"
# May 09 2005 at 8:31 AM Rating: Decent
This is one form of rant, so please forgive me.

IF YOU ARE GOING TO CAMP ARGUS, PLEASE DO NOT ASK THESE 3 QUESTIONS.

1) "pop?"
2) "did it spawn?"
3) new camper just came to the spawn area asking "when was the last spawn time"

* in case of 1,2 some people gets offended for some strange reason for not responding to their /tell and keep asking. after 3-4 repeated request, /slaps the player and asks the next player. People DO go afk, be nice. Even superman needs sleep, i think.

** 1,2) why are you even asking this quesion? you have brain? use it.

*** 3) People spend hours and hours camping this thing just to get its TOD. What makes u think i'll tell you that info?

Finally, please dont say i should tell you this information because you are poor and need the drop bad for your drk,rng or wut-ever.

If any of these are asked or done, im going to imidiately assume that questioner is an idiot and be ignored. Not my fault for you not using your brain.

Fairy server pop times.
# May 08 2005 at 12:49 AM Rating: Decent
looks like Murciel's server you can safely say it pops from 22-30 hours.

On fairy server.. however.. :(
I can say i camp this thing very often.. more then i like to admit. Lately I've been draggin my LS members to camp this thing with me.

Either i have horrible terrible luck at pop or we have horrible terrible pop rate. I've seen this thing pop in around 24 hour window only ONCE. It seem like it spawns more like 36-54 hours on my server :(

Now, if you are on Fairy server and have seen me camp, i go afk alot of time when i go sleep to get a spawn time. I ask some of the campers who was with me if it spawned (either Lking or Argus) and said they have not seen either one.

If you are frequent argus camper on fairy, did you get different spawn times then me? or we really have it this bad.

Thanks.

I am on Fairy and I have seen Argus one day to appear at 14:12 o'clock I have not claimed hit ><, the following day I see it that it appears at 10:41 (20h and 30min after last kill) o'clock while I was helping a friend in the RSE we were only him and I, this time I claim it but no drop; ;(Only Mercury and Hecteyes Eye). The third day 27h after the last kill I have not seen Argus and the King yet (I have gone to the Maze 18h after Argus was dead and I have remained for 10h+ there).... then @_@

Well our LS "TheNotorious"<Caitsith> is having a very good week at this NM camp, as we have obtained 4 peacock charm's out of 5 claims. To my knowledge Argus spawns more frequently then the Leech King, this being said 1 Leech King spawned out of 5 Argus spawns 0/1 Leech King(PT). Before my 1st Argus claim he spawned 4 times in a row, then 5 when I claimed it. Now as for spawn time and radius, he occasionally spawns at the 22:00:00 mark but not frequently. The spawn times looked like this, (Argus)29:55:09.2, 22:31:47.9, 22:01:23.3, 29:57:50.7.(Leech King)23:40:34.1. (Argus)23:00:10.3, 24:13:30.0, 28:09:24.7. As for moon phrases the only one I actually payed attention to was my claim which was (32%)Earthsday(Drop). The Spawn area often has a pattern, I notice when it spawns in the Scorpion Room it is very often near the pillar by the end of the hallway leading to the Argus Room. I have only personally seen it one time spawn across the Scorpion Room at the end of the hall crossing into the Leech King Room, But ultimatly it usually switches spawning to and from the Scorp. Room and Argus Room. Drop rates are really effected in PT, everytime someone from LS was in a PT that got either the Argus or Leech King was unsuccessful for Drop. Everyone in our LS is 1/1 on a solo fight with the Argus, 0/2 with PT. One more thing I might add alot of the campers there are AFK for long periods of time, Rlspears was camping today and stumbled upon Argus unclaimed in front of a player in the Argus room... Now I don't know about anyone else but id be pretty mad to arive back to see "Rlspears defeats the Argus." "Rlspears: YES GOT CHARM w00t."

Below are a few link and screenshots of our LS fighting the Argus. I currently have a DVD quality video of the Argus w/ drop but it is 19MB(I was doing emotes and playing with it unclaimed.) and unfourtunatly I don't have enough bandwidth to host it, so we gotta stick to my ghetto webcam version XD. Sorry I don't have Ujistu/Spoonz(PT) Screens of Leech King, and Loughry was prolly to psyched during the fight to think about taking one. So gotta deal with what I got.

My story was great. I walked home from school wondering what id do if i logged on and he was there.....i got on and camped for like 15 mins, and i went to the other room for a drink, i came back d/c. so i decieded to reset my comp. i log back on, see that all the campers had left...i was almost postive he poped. so i run into LK room just to see maybe he poped and all the cmapers in there..... nobody was around...i decide that he must of poped and i walk into the Iron door room to make sure everyone had left......what do i see on my compass? 3 red dots... 2 bats and Argus. he was standing in front of an AFK brd( sorry Teaki) and i hit stun, got claim and beat him pretty quick. a few hours later in jueno i get a /t from Teaki, the AFK brd and he said that Argus had casted blaze spikes on itself twice b4 i had claimed it LOL so he musta been out unclaimed for at least 10+ minutes....but im not complaining, i came out 18mil+ ^^ GL to you other campers






Murc, thanks for posting our pics.
Its amazing within 2 weeks we got 4 charms.
I say about lvl 50+ with 2hrs+ a few poitions to solo successfully.
55+ with a bit of trouble. and 60+ with no probelms. Loughry was lvl 55 rng and he took it np, i was 60 gave him a Guillotine for like 3/4 of his health and it was a easy fight.

Another thing we noticed, we all got a Vial of mercury with charms lol, seems that they drop togther.

I have a question to break this arguing up for a bit. >.>

I've camped Argus because but never even saw him once. I even knew his ToD because I killed the Leech King myself.

I'm prepared to stand there for hours on end to get his new ToD, but I need to know his spawn timer. Is it a 12 hour, or 24 hour? I've had mixed responces from a lot of people. Also, what's the spawn window like? Say, if its 12 hour pop is the window 8-12hrs, 12-15hrs, or 8-15hrs?

Thanks for any info.

I highly doubt there is a 12hr pop...From what I heard, it's a 24-36hr wait from the time it's killed. I think this is more accurate than the 8-15hr wait...

I see alot of arguing here... the best data I see is at the bottom of ZESHIN's post where he tells his NM count.

My 2 cents:
Kids LOVE to flame. (it makes them feel powerful)
Adults like to teach and preach. (brains full)


Real help would look like this:


Killed Argus (55DRK/24THF)
lightsday 20:00

dropped:
dark crystal
Peacock Charm

Without TH2, Yep, it sure does.

Then you need to take a much needed vacation from this game. This isn't THAT serious.

Quote:
Well, if you really got beat by a BLM that many times down there I urge you to stop camping NMs. Your record sucks with drops, it's now made clear your claiming sucks, so all you are doing is getting in the wealthy player's way who have TH2 and can claim.


You sound like a broken record. You try getting a claim when Argus pops behind you. He facing that direction down the hall towards the scorpion room and he poped. He got the claim with stun IN THE SCORPION ROOM. No one except those with packett sniffers know the exact coordinates as to where argus spawns in a certain position.

By the time it takes to turn around and see him, run up to him and Dia/Provoke it takes pretty close to 4-7 seconds. Not enough time. Think boy.

Quote:
Ok this is just a dumb comment, that's the whole point of my posts which you apparently can't see. I could take Argus no problem solo, but I am not an idiot, I don't want to waste my time. So I have a THF partner. WTF is wrong with you? This is the whole point of my initial argument, are you that stupid?


So the whle point of your argument is to talk about how l337 you are and that everyone that doesn't have TH2 is just junk on the bottom of your shoe?

"All you non TH having noobs"
"I have a partner with TH"
"I've gotten 4 PCCs in 2 weeks"
"I got over 20m"
"You idiots"

Basically all I see. =/

Quote:
I never remember to update rank, nice way to divert the fact that you are an idiot who wastes NMs and the sole reason prices go up on items like the PCC. Oh, and you are 0 for 15 on Promys. Dude if you can't beat promys after SE RETARDED them down for you unskilled losers then I can definately see why you still camp NMs with no Th2. No skill at all.


Now everyone sees the noob in you. Take a GOOD careful look in at this part right here. You're lumping in EVERY ONE in to this category. I have no skill huh? Let's see how fast you can kill Volcanic Gasses in the Cauldron. I can get a max of up to a 350 Chain. Only died once from a Dire bat link. But I gotten 6 keys 5 Bomb Queen Ashes (Gave them to the people who were in the Caulfron because I already had 1 key and bomb queen ash) and 2.3 stacks of Fire Crystals.

Can you do better? Lets try Volcanic Bombs. Bet you'd die on Self-Destruct. All I'd lose is one carbuncle. And I can fight another. Your HP would be to cripple to fight another for a chain if you didn't die. You wanna brag about skill. I got skill too.

Took Steelfleece down to around 55% of his health before I died. JPs cheering me on hoping I'd finish him off. That fight was hard as hell but I got a kick out of it. I'd do it again if I had the oppotunity.

Quote:
and you're boring me with your mindless babble with no point at all.


Your point:
Nooblets should stick to buying off the AH and not camp anything without TH. They don't deserve to share the same camping space as THFs.
All THFs are teh rich and others will always be poor next to the THF. THF reign supreme, Blah blah blah.

My point:
People have a right to play as they see fit. That's why we pay to play this game.

Get over it man. There are always gonna be people playing thier way regardless of what the other people say. You posting here with your "ALL YOU PEOPLEZ ARE T3H N00BZ!!!oneone1"
threads are giving them more reason to ignore you and keep playing.

Basically the definition of insanity, doing the same thing over and over expecting different results, but I would'nt give you that much credit. Sounds like you're just a dumbass.


That score was put up a long time ago. You have NO idea how much I have. Or what NMs I've camped since I put this score up. All you can do is sit behind your PC and ponder about how much I got.

Insanity...
1. Persistent mental disorder or derangement.

Take a good look at your posts. Then look at mine. You're the insane one. Coming on this forum and starting arguments with people and calling them names over a trivial matter is stupid. Sorry to say. But you're the one with the mental disorder.

If you think people don't deserve to play this game the way they see fit then you don't need to play FFXI. Go play halo 2. Do your trash talking there.

In response to the first post about mages not having patience.

Take a look at how many mages with A. Abjuration gear they have on. Or WHMs with Noble's Tunic. How long does it take to get the Items to kill the Gods and HNMs to get the Paper to uncurse them? How long does each battle take to finish "O smart one"?

Not just the mages but for everyone who needs Abjuration or for THFs who need Dragon Gear

Mages have more patience then you think jackass.
If we can put time in for a 4-6 hour battle killing a Lv 95 HNM dragon (And i'm not talking about Vrtra) then we can put up with just about anything else.

You are the weakest link. Good bye. Now go back in the corner and finish that bowl of day-old rice.

Note: Stop spamming this forum with your BS. All you do is start new threads with your lame arguments. Why don't you replay to the ones you started genius. If you want to settle it go start a thread in the discussions forum.

So just because someone with a sloppy record who worked for thier claims gives you the right to trash talk them? You need a hug.

Quote:
I know your type, you're just dirt broke all the time so you decide to "Play the lottery" with NMs like every other mage who is to dumb to realize the odds of getting the drop is next to none.


I know you're type too. You're one of those "I don't give a flying f*** about others. Only myself! ME! Numero uno!" people.

"Lv 50 mage" [Hello!] can you help me with g1 paper plz?

"Vang" {Insert OMGWTFBBQ here} no! f*** you stupid noobs! go solo your paper stfu and leave me alone.

How much gil do I have on my character now? Can't say can you? You don't know squat.
The list in my sig isn't even all the ones I camped. Do you know if i've camped others? Or even if I got the drop? No? Then hush child.

Not everyone who has THF/ or /THF can get every drop from every mob 100% of the time and not everyone who doesn't have THF/ or /THF can get nothing from a mob 100% of the time. Example:
Even with 3 THFs in a alliance party for Suzaku you won't get the Shining Cloth EVERY TIME you fight him.

For those who has a straight record with Argus:
/salute

For those who don't:
/salute (Even if you didn't get the drop you tried you're hardest to win the claim and that's what counts)

Quote:
Seriously, you lie about your claims, you lie about this BLM getting all these drops and now you are delirious.


With what proof? You have no way of proving that he hasn't gotten 4 charms. Since you're "All knowing" figure this out:

How many claims did he have?
How many days/weeks did he camp?
What are the acual chances of getting the drop without /THF? (I can tell you it's not going to be "0-10%" so you can get that out your head)

What ever your answer is without confirmation of the first 2 is invalid. You don't know. Simply put.

Quote:
Oh and my Ninja is 68, I don't even have a high enough THF to kill Argus without being risky (49 THF) but heres an idea! I have a camping partner who does! Hoooly crap I'm ingenious!


Can't take argus by your self? Why don't you /THF and camp? It shouldn't be too hard for a "l337 h4x" such as your self. Oh I see. No /WAR to claim. [That's too bad.]

Hm. Rank 5 and Lv 68 huh? What's wrong? Can't solo Shadow Lord? Ahhh I forgot. you need the help of a "n00bz mage" to beat him.

Quote:
You say I have no life? Well, at least I am bright enough to make my camp worthwhile. Because as I see it, anyone who camps Argus all day calling someone else a loser IRL is pretty hypocritical.


*Yawn* You're starting to bore me with your supiriority complex.

Quote:
I am just smart about it, that's all.
Have fun staying poor dirtball ^^


So what if you're filthy-f***ing rich. Am I or anyone else supposed to be jealous? Anyone can be rich. You're not the only one that has gil in your pocket that exceeds the average player.

Get your head out your *** and get over your self.

Go sit in a corner and eat a bowl of day old rice.

This is argument is getting old. If you're a genius then leave this argument where it is and let it die.

TH doesnt make the biggest difference in the world, but no question about it, it helps. If im ever going to camp argus and take the 20+ hours at least to sit there and camp him i want to make sure im doing everything to get that drop. So I camp with a thf/war. If for some reason I know the spawn time and thf is not around ill sub thf over subbing war because voke isnt the fastest thing if argus spawns out of range.

so were u camping argus for 20 hours, because u said he got more claimS than you, so there were at least 3 claims while u camped against him, so it was 2 of you for 2.5 days? and a BLM/WHM outclaimed you? You suck man, oh ya btw thats complete BS too

Number one I never said I camped him constantly. Second I never mentioned a time limit in which I camped. I camped when I have a schedule planed out for the week. If Camping a NM is on my schedule then that's what I'm going to do. And yeah. BLM/WHM did get more drops than me over a 5 month period. Think before you draw conclusions.

He want's his Claustrum. You can't blame him for
camping it what he can for it. And if you don't know what the item is, look it up. Because i'm looking to dedicate to getting it as well. What ever means neccecary.

All you're fixed on is "TH" I know one camping buddy I camped argus against and he was a BLM/WHM and got more claims than me AND got drops to prove it. As long as I can out claim a NM from a Bot I dont care if "Teh uber item" Drops. There's always next time. Why don't YOU shut up bad mouthing mages not haveing TH.

You try being a mage and see how hard it is then we'll talk.

Who are you to to tell me or anyone else for that matter to NOT camp NMs. So what If I have a bad streak. Thing is I got the claims.

What level are you? Seriously. Cause you're not in any position to trash talk the people who got you to where you are now. I'll camp when I want where ever I want and there's nothing you can do or say to stop me.

"All you non-TH having mages. NM like pops right in front of you"

That sounds like a noob. A noob who doesn't know anything about nothing. Go play dreamcast or somthing. We have no time for arrogant stupid over-ego dumbasses who trash talk others over stupid stuff. I highly doubt you'll get far in this game with that additude.

You have TH1-2. Whoppty-f***in-do. You want a cookie for getting it? Go do something constuctive. Like leave your parents basement. Go out and sniff flowers, Hug a tree, help the evironment. Somthing. It's obvious you don't get out much.

"I'm t3h all p0w3rful ub3r THF that can get any NM I want because I hav3th t3h ub3r TH and mages sux0rz cause they dont have TH. Omgroflmao all mages are t3h n00bzors"

Yeah... Right. Shows how much of a noob you are putting things in that perspective.

You have a really good point, but I'm just wondering. How long did it take you to type that out? :P

Not long. ^^
I'm not downing any thives/thief job in general or the treasure hunter ability. Just saying mages can't claim argus with /THF unless they're
really fast and/or very lucky with Dia and stun and should not be downed like this because they don't have /THF. No one deserves that. >:(

SMNs have to sub /WAR or wait until 74 and sub /DRK to get a claim. Unless they add Provoke on Titan, Then we can do /THF ^^

I've always been the "Get claim first worry about drop second" kinda guy. XD

Dude man, I know it sounds crazy, but [Treasure Hunter] actually makes a difference! Perhaps you should try leveling THF before flaming on how it does nothing. I think u have every right to be out there with w/e job you please, however without some sort of drop enhancment, why waste your time? And yes, i know what being a mage is like, thats why i leveled THF. Square Enix makes drops tough enough in this game, might as well get the best chance at it. :P

I have THF leveled. 18 kills on Lizzy with THF/RNG. 0 drops.

Now How exactly am I supposed to claim Argus with /THF? By the time I use the /pet "Assault" <t> mac he'd be claimed before target him and I hit Ctrl+1. Dia isn't that fast til I get 75 and the Relic hat.

Thats why I sub /WAR. Its alot more effective claiming wise. As I stated before I know a (Former) mage rival. He's gotten 4 Charms using his BLM/WHM. If he can get 4 I can manage to get one. Doesnt matter how long it takes or if it's worth the time. If I or any "Non TH having people" choose to waste our time camping a NM without it then that's OUR buisness.

Now I got a question:
If he's so pissed at mages not having TH then why doesnt he say the same for the PLD/WARs DRG/WARs MNK/WARs SAM/WARs ect that sit there and camp out claiming other on the spawn? They don't have TH and yet they sit there and camp.
Answer that one. >.>

Mages have every right to camp a NM if they choose with out without TH. What are they gonna do try and MPK me with Scorpions and Goblins if they see me with no /THF?

He's bashing only mages and not the other people with other job combo's that include /WAR solo. He shouldn't be trash talking others just because they don't have /THF and camp a NM.
no drop
