So far I have killed Spiny Spipi twice. Once I was on the way to windurst and get interrupted by someone, to cut a long story short decided to join him in fighting Bitoso (BCNM 30 Crawler) anyways whilst heading back to windurst I decided to take a trip to K-6 (I have camped Spiny before but never seen him) anyways there are 2 crawlers there, one called Spipi Spiny, didn't take long and drops, Silk thread and MIST SILK CAPE ^^ (I got it but gave the guy some Mannequin feet I had laying around for a few weeks). To note we found Spiny at K-6 and neither of us had Treasure Hunter, we were 37WHM/BLM(me) and 31RDM/BLM Tokai(sp?) on Remora Server.
And then whilst raising Summoning magic for an avatar fight, since I wanted more from my sub-job then just MP, MND and Carby. I decided to raise my magic level at J-6/J-7 since I was away from the n00bs at Windurst who ask for PL for Free, away from most aggroing enemy and I knew Spiny Spawned around there. just after hitting 3MP (not enough for any spell I can think of as a 20SMN/WHM) Spiny Spawns just West of me (J-6/J-7? West part of J). After a tough fight all I get is a silk thread but I wasn't going to go around killing all the crawlers since I have more important matters to attend to. so at the moment on mist silk cape I am 1/2 ^^.
I also Battled Spiny another time as my other character a Mithra 9BLM/RDM (just to get to level 30 quickly) used 2H and full MP toke Spiny down to about 1/4 - 1/5HP. only +INT was my Windurstian Ring. At level 10 I might have been able to take it. I think almost any class at level 12 with sub, Could take this NM, maybe with a bit of a fight. (The person who got Spiny Spipi didn't get the drop tho anyways). This time Spiny was at (J-6/J-7 again but middle of J)
